Hi,
Thanks for this feature. I've been trying it out... (This is with lib-musl-x86_64.)
Automatic mapping works:
$ unshare --map-users=auto cat /proc/self/uid_map
0 100000 65536
But parsing id ranges does not:
$ unshare --map-users=100000,0,65536 cat /proc/self/uid_map
unshare: could not parse ID: '100000,0,65536'
Fix:
---
diff --git a/sys-utils/unshare.c b/sys-utils/unshare.c
index 443358952..52bd9702a 100644
--- a/sys-utils/unshare.c

}

Then, the value passed to newuidmap is still incorrect:
$ unshare --map-users=100000,0,65536 cat /proc/self/uid_map
newuidmap: uid range [0-655360) -> [100000-755360) not allowed
$ unshare --map-users=100000,0,0065536 cat /proc/self/uid_map
0 100000 65536
The count value gets zero-padded to the right at some place I've not pinned down.
Also, I would suggest adopting the same argument order as in /proc/<pid>/uid_map and newuidmap -- inner,outer,count.
This doc string has it reversed:
---
/**
* struct map_range - A range of IDs to map
* @outer: First ID inside the namespace
* @inner: First ID outside the namespace
---
And this one has inconsistent terminology:
---
* get_map_range() - Parse a mapping range from a string
* @s: A string of the format upper,lower,count
*
* Parse a string of the form upper,lower,count into a new mapping range.
