<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
The <command>newuidmap</command> sets <filename>/proc/[pid]/uid_map</filename>
based on its command line arguments and the uids allowed. Subuid
delegation can either be managed via <filename>/etc/subuid</filename> or
through the configured NSS subid module. These options are mutually
exclusive.
</para>
<para>
Note that the root user is not exempted from the requirement for a valid
<filename>/etc/subuid</filename> entry.
</para>
<para>
After the pid argument, <command>newuidmap</command> expects sets of 3 integers:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>uid</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Beginning of the range of UIDs inside the user namespace.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>loweruid</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Beginning of the range of UIDs outside the user namespace.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>count</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Length of the ranges (both inside and outside the user namespace).
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</para>
<para>
<command>newuidmap</command> verifies that the caller is the owner
of the process indicated by <option>pid</option> 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
<filename>/etc/subuid</filename> before setting
<filename>/proc/[pid]/uid_map</filename>.
</para>
<para>
Note that newuidmap may be used only once for a given process.
</para>
<para>
Instead of an integer process id, the first argument may be
specified as <replaceable>fd:N</replaceable>, where the integer N
is the file descriptor number for the calling process's opened
file descriptor for the directory <filename>/proc/[pid]</filename>.
In this case, <command>newuidmap</command> will use
<refentrytitle>openat</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum>
to open the <filename>uid_map</filename> file under that
directory, avoiding a TOCTTOU in case the process exits and
the pid is immediately reused.
