@ -22,8 +22,24 @@ Janitorial Clean-ups:
Features:
* nspawn: default to 1:1 userns
* Provide a reasonably bespoke solution for mounting host $HOME directories
into containers:
• add new option --mount-user=$USER for mounting $HOME of the user into the
container at the same place
• check /etc/passwd for UID or user name clashes. If UID clash pick a different
UID in container, and map via userns. If user name clash, refuse. If
matching user already exists use that.
• otherwise: write user record of specified user into /run/host/passwd or so
• in nss-systemd pick up user record from there and make available to system
With all that in place if nspawn host and container payload are up-to-date
enough we have a very simple way to make host users available in containers.
* systemd-sysusers: pick up passwords from credentials logic, so that users can
easily set root user pw
easily set root user pw. enable cred inheriting for root user from PID 1, so
that for containers we can configure the root pw automatically via nspawn's
--set-credential= switch. (Also do this for systemd-firstboot)
* whenever we receive fds via SCM_RIGHTS make sure none got dropped due to the
reception limit the kernel silently enforces.
