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.

rootlesskit does an equivalent of unshare(1) and newuidmap(1)/newgidmap(1) in a single command, for creating unprivileged user_namespaces(7) and mount_namespaces(7) with subuid(5) and subgid(5).

rootlesskit also supports network namespace isolation and userspace NAT using "slirp". Kernel NAT using SUID-enabled lxc-user-nic(1) is also on the plan.

Projects using RootlessKit

  • Usernetes: Docker & Kubernetes, installable under a non-root user's $HOME.
  • BuildKit: Next-generation docker build backend

Setup

$ 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.
$ 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:

$ 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:

$ 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:

$ rootlesskit --copy-up=/etc bash
rootlesskit$ rm /etc/resolv.conf
rootlesskit$ vi /etc/resolv.conf

You can even create network namespaces with Slirp:

$ rootlesskit --copy-up=/etc --copy-up=/run --net=slirp4netns bash
rootlesskit$ ip netns add foo
...

Proc filesystem view:

$ 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 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:

Usage:

$ rootlesskit --state-dir=/run/user/1001/rootlesskit/foo --net=slirp4netns --copy-up=/etc bash
rootlesskit$ ip a
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: tap0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 42:b6:8d:e4:02:c4 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 10.0.2.100/24 scope global tap0
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 fe80::40b6:8dff:fee4:2c4/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
rootlesskit$ ip r
default via 10.0.2.2 dev tap0
10.0.2.0/24 dev tap0 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.2.100
rootlesskit$ cat /etc/resolv.conf 
nameserver 10.0.2.3
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:

$ 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.

$ 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.

$ sudo sh -c "echo 0   2147483647  > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range"

Note: routing ping packets is not supported for --net=vpnkit.
