# RootlessKit: the gate to the rootless world
|
||
|
|
||
|
`rootlesskit` is a kind of Linux-native "fake root" utility, made for mainly running [Docker and Kubernetes as an unprivileged user](https://github.com/rootless-containers/usernetes).
|
||
|
|
||
|
`rootlesskit` does an equivalent of [`unshare(1)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/unshare.1.html) and [`newuidmap(1)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/newuidmap.1.html)/[`newgidmap(1)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/newgidmap.1.html) in a single command, for creating unprivileged [`user_namespaces(7)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/user_namespaces.7.html) and [`mount_namespaces(7)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/user_namespaces.7.html) with [`subuid(5)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/subuid.5.html) and [`subgid(5)`](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/subgid.5.html).
|
||
|
|
||
|
`rootlesskit` also supports network namespace isolation and userspace NAT using ["slirp"](#slirp).
|
||
|
Kernel NAT using SUID-enabled [`lxc-user-nic(1)`](https://linuxcontainers.org/lxc/manpages/man1/lxc-user-nic.1.html) is also on the plan.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Projects using RootlessKit
|
||
|
|
||
|
* [Usernetes](https://github.com/rootless-containers/usernetes): Docker & Kubernetes, installable under a non-root user's `$HOME`.
|
||
|
* [BuildKit](https://github.com/moby/buildkit): Next-generation `docker build` backend
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Setup
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ go get github.com/rootless-containers/rootlesskit/cmd/rootlesskit
|
||
|
$ go get github.com/rootless-containers/rootlesskit/cmd/rootlessctl
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Requirements:
|
||
|
* Some distros such as Debian (excluding Ubuntu) and Arch Linux require `sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone"`.
|
||
|
* `newuidmap` and `newgidmap` need to be installed on the host. These commands are provided by the `uidmap` package on most distros.
|
||
|
* `/etc/subuid` and `/etc/subgid` should contain >= 65536 sub-IDs. e.g. `penguin:231072:65536`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ id -u
|
||
|
1001
|
||
|
$ whoami
|
||
|
penguin
|
||
|
$ grep ^$(whoami): /etc/subuid
|
||
|
penguin:231072:65536
|
||
|
$ grep ^$(whoami): /etc/subgid
|
||
|
penguin:231072:65536
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
Inside `rootlesskit`, your UID is mapped to 0 but it is not the real root:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ rootlesskit bash
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ id
|
||
|
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),65534(nogroup)
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ ls -l /etc/shadow
|
||
|
-rw-r----- 1 nobody nogroup 1050 Aug 21 19:02 /etc/shadow
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ $ cat /etc/shadow
|
||
|
cat: /etc/shadow: Permission denied
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Environment variables are kept untouched:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ rootlesskit bash
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ echo $USER
|
||
|
penguin
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ echo $HOME
|
||
|
/home/penguin
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ echo $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
|
||
|
/run/user/1001
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Filesystems can be isolated from the host with `--copy-up`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ rootlesskit --copy-up=/etc bash
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ rm /etc/resolv.conf
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ vi /etc/resolv.conf
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can even create network namespaces with [Slirp](#slirp):
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ rootlesskit --copy-up=/etc --copy-up=/run --net=slirp4netns bash
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ ip netns add foo
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Proc filesystem view:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ rootlesskit bash
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ cat /proc/self/uid_map
|
||
|
0 1001 1
|
||
|
1 231072 65536
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ cat /proc/self/gid_map
|
||
|
0 1001 1
|
||
|
1 231072 65536
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ cat /proc/self/setgroups
|
||
|
allow
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
## Building from source
|
||
|
`rootlesskit` and `rootlessctl` can be built from source using:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
make
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## State directory
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following files will be created in the `--state-dir` directory:
|
||
|
* `lock`: lock file
|
||
|
* `child_pid`: decimal PID text that can be used for `nsenter(1)`.
|
||
|
* `api.sock`: REST API socket for `rootlessctl`. See [Port forwarding](#port-forwarding) section.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Undocumented files are subject to change.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Environment variables
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following environment variables will be set for the child process:
|
||
|
* `ROOTLESSKIT_STATE_DIR` (since v0.3.0): absolute path to the state dir
|
||
|
|
||
|
Undocumented environment variables are subject to change.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Slirp
|
||
|
|
||
|
Remarks:
|
||
|
* Specifying `--copy-up=/etc` is highly recommended unless `/etc/resolv.conf` is statically configured. Otherwise `/etc/resolv.conf` will be invalidated when it is recreated on the host, typically by NetworkManager or systemd-resolved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Currently there are three slirp implementations supported by rootlesskit:
|
||
|
* `--net=slirp4netns`, using [slirp4netns](https://github.com/rootless-containers/slirp4netns) (recommended)
|
||
|
* `--net=vpnkit`, using [VPNKit](https://github.com/moby/vpnkit)
|
||
|
* `--net=vdeplug_slirp`, using [vdeplug_slirp](https://github.com/rd235/vdeplug_slirp)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usage:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ rootlesskit --state-dir=/run/user/1001/rootlesskit/foo --net=slirp4netns --copy-up=/etc bash
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ ip a

|
||
|
rootlesskit$ curl https://www.google.com
|
||
|
<!doctype html><html ...>...</html>
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Default network configuration for `--net=slirp4netns` and `--net=vdeplug_slirp`:
|
||
|
* IP: 10.0.2.100/24
|
||
|
* Gateway: 10.0.2.2
|
||
|
* DNS: 10.0.2.3
|
||
|
* Host: 10.0.2.2, 10.0.2.3
|
||
|
|
||
|
Default network configuration for `--net=vpnkit`:
|
||
|
* IP: 192.168.65.3/24
|
||
|
* Gateway: 192.168.65.1
|
||
|
* DNS: 192.168.65.1
|
||
|
* Host: 192.168.65.2
|
||
|
|
||
|
`--net=slirp4netns` supports specifying custom CIDR, e.g. `--cidr=10.0.3.0/24` (requires slirp4netns v0.3.0+)
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is highly recommended to disable host loopback address by specyfing `--disable-host-loopback`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Port forwarding
|
||
|
|
||
|
`rootlessctl` can be used for exposing the ports in the network namespace to the host network namespace.
|
||
|
You also need to launch `rootlesskit` with `--port-driver=(socat|slirp4netns|builtin)`. `builtin` is the fastest but currently experimental.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example, to expose 80 in the child as 8080 in the parent:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ rootlesskit --state-dir=/run/user/1001/rootlesskit/foo --net=slirp4netns --copy-up=/etc --port-driver=socat bash
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ rootlessctl --socket=/run/user/1001/rootlesskit/foo/api.sock add-ports 0.0.0.0:8080:80/tcp
|
||
|
1
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ rootlessctl --socket=/run/user/1001/rootlesskit/foo/api.sock list-ports
|
||
|
ID PROTO PARENTIP PARENTPORT CHILDPORT
|
||
|
1 tcp 0.0.0.0 8080 80
|
||
|
rootlesskit$ rootlessctl --socket=/run/user/1001/rootlesskit/foo/api.sock remove-ports 1
|
||
|
1
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can also expose the ports manually without using the API socket.
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ pid=$(cat /run/user/1001/rootlesskit/foo/child_pid)
|
||
|
$ socat -t -- TCP-LISTEN:8080,reuseaddr,fork EXEC:"nsenter -U -n -t $pid socat -t -- STDIN TCP4\:127.0.0.1\:80"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Routing ping packets
|
||
|
|
||
|
To route ping packets, you need to set up `net.ipv4.ping_group_range` properly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```console
|
||
|
$ sudo sh -c "echo 0 2147483647 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note: routing ping packets is not supported for `--net=vpnkit`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Annex: benchmark (MTU=1500)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Aug 1, 2018, on Travis: https://travis-ci.org/rootless-containers/rootlesskit/builds/410721610
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `--net=slirp4netns`: 1.07 Gbits/sec
|
||
|
* `--net=vpnkit`: 528 Mbits/sec
|
||
|
* `--net=vdeplug_slirp`: 771 Mbits/sec
