The user namespace may then be used to run containers and other sandboxes, and/or apply it to an id\-mapped mount\&. +.PP +Allocations of UIDs/GIDs this way are transient: when a user namespace goes away, its UID/GID range is returned to the pool of available ranges\&. In order to ensure that clients cannot gain persistency in their transient UID/GID range a BPF\-LSM based policy is enforced that ensures that user namespaces set up this way can only write to file systems they allocate themselves or that are explicitly allowlisted via +\fBsystemd\-nsresourced\fR\&. +.PP +\fBsystemd\-nsresourced\fR +automatically ensures that any registered UID ranges show up in the system\*(Aqs NSS database via the +\m[blue]\fBUser/Group Record Lookup API via Varlink\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2\&. +.PP +Currently, only UID/GID ranges consisting of either exactly 1 or exactly 65536 UIDs/GIDs can be registered with this service\&. Moreover, UIDs and GIDs are always allocated together, and symmetrically\&. +.PP +The service provides API calls to allowlist mounts (referenced via their mount file descriptors as per Linux +\fBfsmount()\fR +API), to pass ownership of a cgroup subtree to the user namespace and to delegate a virtual Ethernet device pair to the user namespace\&. When used in combination this is sufficient to implement fully unprivileged container environments, as implemented by +\fBsystemd-nspawn\fR(1), fully unprivileged +\fIRootImage=\fR +(see +\fBsystemd.exec\fR(5)) or fully unprivileged disk image tools such as +\fBsystemd-dissect\fR(1)\&. +.PP +This service provides one +\m[blue]\fBVarlink\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[2]\d\s+2 +service: +\fBio\&.systemd\&.NamespaceResource\fR +allows registering user namespaces, and assign mounts, cgroups and network interfaces to it\&. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.PP +\fBsystemd\fR(1), +\fBsystemd-mountfsd.service\fR(8), +\fBsystemd-nspawn\fR(1), +\fBsystemd.exec\fR(5), +\fBsystemd-dissect\fR(1), +\fBuser_namespaces\fR(7) +.SH "NOTES" +.IP " 1." 4 +User/Group Record Lookup API via Varlink +.RS 4 +\%https://systemd.io/USER_GROUP_API +.RE +.IP " 2." 4 +Varlink +.RS 4 +\%https://varlink.org/ +.RE |
