[PATCH] [RFC] mnt: add ability to clone mntns starting with the current root

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Andrey Vagin <avagin@xxxxxxxxx>

Currently when we create a new container with a separate root,
we need to clone the current mount namespace with all mounts and then
clean up it by using pivot_root(). A big part of mountpoints are cloned
only to be umounted.

Another problem is that rootfs can't be hidden from a container, because
rootfs can't be moved or umounted.

Here is an example how to get access to rootfs:
fd = open("/proc/self/ns/mnt", O_RDONLY)
umount2("/", MNT_DETACH);
setns(fd, CLONE_NEWNS)

rootfs may contain data, which should not be avaliable in CT-s.

I suggest to add ability to create a mount namespace with specified
mount points. A current task root can be used as a root for the new
mount namespace.

With this patch you can call chroot(ct->rootfs) and
unshare(UNSHARE_NEWNS2) to get a clean mount namespace.

UNSHARE_NEWNS2 can be used only with the unshare() syscall. The clone()
syscall doesn't have unused flags.

Here is an example how it looks like:
$ cat ../../unshare.c

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	if (unshare(UNSHARE_NEWNS2))
		return 1;

	execl("/bin/bash", "/bin/bash", NULL);
	return 1;
}
$ mount --bind test/ubuntu/ test/ubuntu/
$ cd test/ubuntu/
$ chroot .
$ ./unshare2
$ mount -t proc proc proc
$ cat /proc/self/mountinfo
55 55 252:1 /home/avagin/test/ubuntu / rw,relatime - ext4 /dev/disk/by-uuid/d672b85f-533c-4868-9609-ca80be52d3c6 rw,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered
