Seem your kernel has setns, but autoconf doesn't recognise it.
you can modify the config.h, change as below
#define HAVE_SETNS 1
and make && make install


Hi gaofeng,
I tried as you said, but it report an error when do make operation as following:

util/virprocess.c: In function 'virProcessSetNamespaces':
util/virprocess.c:568:9: error: implicit declaration of function 'setns' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
util/virprocess.c:568:9: error: nested extern declaration of 'setns' [-Werror=nested-externs]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[3]: *** [util/libvirt_util_la-virprocess.lo] Error 1

I think something must be wrong about setns system call in my environment.
But still thanks very much for your help.

------------------     
Best regards!
