.SH "NAME"
newuidmap \- set the uid mapping of a user namespace
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBnewuidmap\fR\ 'u
\fBnewuidmap\fR \fIpid\fR \fIuid\fR \fIloweruid\fR \fIcount\fR [\fIuid\fR\ \fIloweruid\fR\ \fIcount\fR\ [\ \fI\&.\&.\&.\fR\ ]]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The
\fBnewuidmap\fR
sets
/proc/[pid]/uid_map
based on its command line arguments and the uids allowed\&. Subuid delegation can either be managed via
/etc/subuid
or through the configured NSS subid module\&. These options are mutually exclusive\&.
.PP
Note that the root user is not exempted from the requirement for a valid
/etc/subuid
entry\&.
.PP
After the pid argument,
\fBnewuidmap\fR
expects sets of 3 integers:
.PP
uid
.RS 4
Beginning of the range of UIDs inside the user namespace\&.
.RE
.PP
loweruid
.RS 4
Beginning of the range of UIDs outside the user namespace\&.
.RE
.PP
count
.RS 4
Length of the ranges (both inside and outside the user namespace)\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBnewuidmap\fR
verifies that the caller is the owner of the process indicated by
\fBpid\fR
and that for each of the above sets, each of the UIDs in the range [loweruid, loweruid+count) is allowed to the caller according to
/etc/subuid
before setting
/proc/[pid]/uid_map\&.
.PP
Note that newuidmap may be used only once for a given process\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
There currently are no options to the
\fBnewuidmap\fR
command\&.
.SH "FILES"
.PP
/etc/subuid
.RS 4
List of user\*(Aqs subordinate user IDs\&.
.RE
.PP
/proc/[pid]/uid_map
.RS 4
Mapping of uids from one between user namespaces\&.
.RE
