A holder that publishes one raw writes a marker it cannot read back, and loses the lock to the first peer that ages it out as malformed. ``?`` is illegal in a hostname, so escaping it along with every out-of-grammar byte as ``?`` leaves a real name untouched and still keeps two hosts apart, which :func:`owner_is_stale` relies on to refuse to probe a foreign PID. Linux appends the PID namespace, as Mercurial's lock prefix does. Two containers in one pod share the hostname and the boot id but not the PID namespace, so a PID recorded in one names another process, or none, in the other. The suffix starts with a ``?`` no escape can produce, so ``a`` in a namespace never reads as a host literally named ``a?pidns-...``. The initial namespace adds nothing, which keeps a host's name what older releases recorded. An over-long name ends in a digest of the part cut to fit the limit. A bare cut gives every name that shares the kept prefix one identity, and :func:`owner_is_stale` would then probe a local PID for another host's holder.
