NOM¶

newuidmap - set the uid mapping of a user namespace

SYNOPSIS¶

newuidmap pid uid loweruid count [uid loweruid count [ ... ]]

DESCRIPTION¶

The newuidmap 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.

Note that the root user is not exempted from the requirement for a valid /etc/subuid entry.

After the pid argument, newuidmap expects sets of 3 integers:

uid

loweruid

count

newuidmap verifies that the caller is the owner of the process indicated by pid 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.

Note that newuidmap may be used only once for a given process.

OPTIONS¶

There currently are no options to the newuidmap command.

FICHIERS¶
