Dear guixers,

I'm sending a small patch set to add a Guix System service (hopefully :)
) able to handle /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid . It should be a first step
towards a structured rootless-podman-service-type that I plan to
implement. Please let me know your thoughts.

Ludo’ : I'm CCing you just FYI , this is not an ask for review just in
some files your name is the only one in the copyright section and it may
be that you are the most familiar with those, but please look at this
when and if you have time.

Thank you everyone for your work,

giacomo

[PATCH 1/3] accounts: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
1901209e4998ad29192b6f73b1e2828bc5d6f90e.1722180566.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a new record type, <subid-entry> and serializers
and deserializers for it in (gnu build accounts). Each instance of this
record represents one line in either /etc/subuid or /etc/subgid. Since
Shadow uses the same representation for both files, it should be ok if
we do it as well.

This commit adds also <subid-range>, a user facing representation of
<subid-entry>. It is supposed to be usable directly in OS configurations.

* gnu/build/accounts.scm (subid-entry): New record;
(write-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(write-subuid): add serializer for subuids;
(read-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(read-subuid): add serializer for subuids.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (subid-range): New record.
* test/accounts.scm: Test them.

[PATCH 3/3] system: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
6b97096800ebf51a666ab2ee93fd2fdec3c2c65c.1722180566.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a Guix System service to handle allocation of subuid
and subgid requests. Users that don't care can just add themselves as a
subid-range and don't need to specify anything but their user name.
Users that care about specific ranges, such as possibly LXD, can specify
a start and a count.

* doc/guix.texi: Document the new service.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-subuids+subgids): New variable.
* gnu/local.mk: Add gnu/tests/shadow.scm.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->subid-range): New variable.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (%root-subid): New variable;
(subids-configuration): new record;
(subid-range->gexp): new variable;
(assert-valid-subids): new variable;
(delete-duplicate-ranges): new variable;
(subids-activation): new variable;
(subids-extension): new record;
(append-subid-ranges): new variable;
(subids-extension-merge): new variable;
(subids-service-type): new variable.
* gnu/tests/shadow.scm (subids): New system test.

+
+The @code{(gnu system shadow)} module exposes the
+@code{subids-service-type}, its configuration record
+@code{subids-configuration} and its extension record
+@code{subids-extension}.
+
+With @code{subids-service-type}, subuids and subgids ranges can be reserved for
+users that desire so:
+
+@lisp
+(use-modules (gnu system shadow) ;for 'subids-service-type'
+ (gnu system accounts) ;for 'subid-range'

+ (subid-range (name "alice"))))
+ (subuids
+ (list
+ (subid-range (name "alice"))
+ (subid-range (name "bob")
+ (start 100700)))))))))
+@end lisp
+
+Users (definitely other services), usually, are supposed to extend the service
+instead of adding subids directly to @code{subids-configuration}, unless the
+want to change the default behavior for root. With default settings the
+@code{subids-service-type} adds, if it's not already there, a configuration
+for the root account to both @code{/etc/subuid} and @code{/etc/subgid}, possibly
+starting at the minimum possible subid. Otherwise the root subuids and subgids
+ranges are fitted wherever possible.
+
+The above configuration will yield the following:
+
+@example
+# cat /etc/subgid
+root:100000:65536
+alice:165536:65536
+# cat /etc/subuid
+root:100000:700
+bob:100700:65536

+@code{subids-service-type} adds, if it's not already there, a configuration

+provide your own definition for the root subid ranges you can set to @code{#f}

Dear Guixers,

I'm sending a patchset rebased on current master. I can confirm tests
still work.

Thank you for your work,

[PATCH v2 3/3] system: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
38d9e6a0d242dac361bb62ad6b48b7d0ac7901ae.1724105284.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a Guix System service to handle allocation of subuid
and subgid requests. Users that don't care can just add themselves as a
subid-range and don't need to specify anything but their user name.
Users that care about specific ranges, such as possibly LXD, can specify
a start and a count.

* doc/guix.texi: Document the new service.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-subuids+subgids): New variable.
* gnu/local.mk: Add gnu/tests/shadow.scm.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->subid-range): New variable.

+@end lisp
+
+Users (definitely other services), usually, are supposed to extend the service
+instead of adding subids directly to @code{subids-configuration}, unless the
+want to change the default behavior for root. With default settings the
+@code{subids-service-type} adds, if it's not already there, a configuration
+for the root account to both @code{/etc/subuid} and @code{/etc/subgid}, possibly
+starting at the minimum possible subid. Otherwise the root subuids and subgids
+ranges are fitted wherever possible.
+
+The above configuration will yield the following:
+
+@example
+# cat /etc/subgid
+root:100000:65536
+alice:165536:65536
+# cat /etc/subuid

+for the root account to both @code{/etc/subuid} and @code{/etc/subgid}, possibly
+starting at the minimum possible subid. To disable the default behavior and
+provide your own definition for the root subid ranges you can set to @code{#f}
+the @code{add-root?} field:

[PATCH v2 1/3] accounts: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
ea47c9ba31ab1700d10c518d8be25238586dec33.1724105284.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a new record type, <subid-entry> and serializers
and deserializers for it in (gnu build accounts). Each instance of this
record represents one line in either /etc/subuid or /etc/subgid. Since
Shadow uses the same representation for both files, it should be ok if
we do it as well.

This commit adds also <subid-range>, a user facing representation of
<subid-entry>. It is supposed to be usable directly in OS configurations.

* gnu/build/accounts.scm (subid-entry): New record;
(write-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(write-subuid): add serializer for subuids;
(read-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(read-subuid): add serializer for subuids.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (subid-range): New record.
* test/accounts.scm: Test them.

Dear Guixers,


I'm sending a v3. This patchset brings a small fix where numbers where
not converted to strings in error messages string-append calls.


Thank you for your time,

[PATCH v3 3/3] system: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
8b0b9421e1347e0f0d6ce88c8eb66a5b6296cc0c.1724192097.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a Guix System service to handle allocation of subuid
and subgid requests. Users that don't care can just add themselves as a
subid-range and don't need to specify anything but their user name.
Users that care about specific ranges, such as possibly LXD, can specify
a start and a count.

* doc/guix.texi: Document the new service.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-subuids+subgids): New variable.
* gnu/local.mk: Add gnu/tests/shadow.scm.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->subid-range): New variable.

+@code{subids-configuration} and its extension record
+@code{subids-extension}.
+
+With @code{subids-service-type}, subuids and subgids ranges can be reserved for

+ (subid-range (name "alice"))
+ (subid-range (name "bob")

+@end lisp
+
+Users (definitely other services), usually, are supposed to extend the service
+instead of adding subids directly to @code{subids-configuration}, unless the
+want to change the default behavior for root. With default settings the
+@code{subids-service-type} adds, if it's not already there, a configuration
+for the root account to both @code{/etc/subuid} and @code{/etc/subgid}, possibly
+starting at the minimum possible subid. Otherwise the root subuids and subgids
+ranges are fitted wherever possible.
+
+The above configuration will yield the following:
+
+@example
+# cat /etc/subgid
+root:100000:65536
+alice:165536:65536
+# cat /etc/subuid
+root:100000:700

+alice:166236:65536
+@end example
+
+@c %start of fragment
+
+@deftp {Data Type} subids-configuration

[PATCH v3 1/3] accounts: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
ea47c9ba31ab1700d10c518d8be25238586dec33.1724192097.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a new record type, <subid-entry> and serializers
and deserializers for it in (gnu build accounts). Each instance of this
record represents one line in either /etc/subuid or /etc/subgid. Since
Shadow uses the same representation for both files, it should be ok if
we do it as well.

This commit adds also <subid-range>, a user facing representation of
<subid-entry>. It is supposed to be usable directly in OS configurations.

* gnu/build/accounts.scm (subid-entry): New record;
(write-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(write-subuid): add serializer for subuids;
(read-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(read-subuid): add serializer for subuids.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (subid-range): New record.
* test/accounts.scm: Test them.

Woow, neat! It didn’t occur to me that we’d need a proper subid
allocation mechanism as well.

‘length’, ‘list-ref’, and thus ‘list-set’ are linear in the size of the
list so it’s something we should avoid, unless we know that the lists
we’re dealing with are always going to be small.

Maybe: (within-subordinate-id-range? start end range) ?

Also, shouldn’t the first <= be >= ?

Please add docstrings for top-level procedures.

Maybe: (containing-subordinate-id-range? range a b) ?

We definitely need a docstring, I’m not sure what this is supposed to
do. :-)

There are two issues: first we need ‘raise’ from (srfi srfi-34), not
from (guile), since the latter has nothing to do with exceptions.

Second, ‘raise’ takes a SRFI-35 “error condition” (essentially a
record), not a string.

But my suggestion here would be to define specific error conditions,
like:

(define-condition-type &subordinate-id-error &error)
(define-condition-type &subordinate-id-range-error &subordinate-id-error
(id subordinate-id-range-error-id))

The latter is what we’d use here.

This procedure uses lists a lot, which should probably be avoided as I
wrote above. Perhaps a vlist would do, or perhaps a vhash, or a vector.

The procedure is also very long; I wonder if it could be further split
and/or share code with the existing allocation-related code.

Instead of ‘test-error’, which is currently kinda broken IIRC, I’d
suggest a more explicit approach:

(test-assert …
(guard (c ((whatever-error? c) #t))
…
#f))

I think this section should start by defining briefly what a
“subordinate ID” is, with a cross-reference to a primary source for that
(unfortunately glibc’s manual has nothing about it, so that’d be Linux
man pages I guess), and by giving an idea of what it’s used for.

It should use “subuid” and “subgid” only after it has introduced them as
abbreviations of “subordinate UID”.

Use single ‘@’ or, better yet, #:use-module the thing.

Same comment as before regarding ‘raise’.

In this case, you could do: (raise (formatted-message (G_ …) …)).
This is done elsewhere in the code.

Instead of running ‘cat’, I would suggest using:

(call-with-input-file "/etc/subuid" get-string-all)

or similar; it’s much simpler.

Also, it would be nice if the test could actually exercise subordinate
IDs, with ‘newuidmap’ or some such. Is that within reach?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Hi Ludo’ ,

I'm sending an updated v4 patchset that should address most your
comments. One point I'm not sure about is still how to use newuidmap.
I've added a smoke test checking the content of /proc/self/uid_map
inside a podman unshare command. I'm not sure that is sufficient but for
a full Guile implementation I would wait for another issue if you agree.
I still have to find a reliable smoke test. This is something I've been
trying, without success so far :( .

(use-modules (ice-9 popen)
             ;(ice-9 rdelim)
             )


(define pid (primitive-fork))

(if (= 0 pid)
    (let ((port (pk 'port (open-output-pipe "bash"))))
      (sleep 1)
      (display "whoami\n" port)
      (display "cat /proc/self/uid_map\n" port)
      (display "cat /proc/self/gid_map\n" port)
      (if (not (eqv? 0 (status:exit-val (close-pipe port))))
          (error "Cannot run command")))
    (begin
      (system* "newuidmap" (number->string pid) "paul" "165536" "65536")))



Thank you for all your help in polishing this service,

This commit adds a new record type, <subid-entry> and serializers
and deserializers for it in (gnu build accounts). Each instance of this
record represents one line in either /etc/subuid or /etc/subgid. Since
Shadow uses the same representation for both files, it should be ok if
we do it as well.

This commit adds also <subid-range>, a user facing representation of
<subid-entry>. It is supposed to be usable directly in OS configurations.

This commit adds allocation logic for subid ranges. Subid ranges are
ranges of contiguous subids that are mapped to a user in the host
system. This patch implements a flexible allocation algorithm allowing
users that do not want (or need) to specify details of the subid ranges
that they are requesting to avoid doing so, while upholding requests of
users that need to have specific ranges.

[PATCH v4 3/3] system: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
479d5a6eb25e4a4156fa04774ad8800f38ea08ec.1725742309.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a Guix System service to handle allocation of subuid
and subgid requests. Users that don't care can just add themselves as a
subid-range and don't need to specify anything but their user name.
Users that care about specific ranges, such as possibly LXD, can specify
a start and a count.

* doc/guix.texi: Document the new service.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-subuids+subgids): New variable.
* gnu/local.mk: Add gnu/tests/shadow.scm.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->subid-range): New variable.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (%root-subid): New variable;
(subids-configuration): new record;

(append-subid-ranges): new variable;
(subids-extension-merge): new variable;

+
+Among the virtualization facilities implemented by the Linux kernel, the is the
+concept of subordinate IDs. Subordinate IDs allow for mapping user and group
+IDs inside process namespaces to user and group IDs of the host system.
+Subordinate user ID ranges (subids) allow to map virtual user IDs inside
+containers to the user ID of an unprivileged user of the host system.
+Subordinate group ID ranges (subgids), instead map virtual group IDs to the
+group ID of an unprivileged user on the host system. You can access
+@code{subuid(5)} and @code{subgid(5)} Linux man pages for more details.
+
+The @code{(gnu system shadow)} module exposes the
+@code{subids-service-type}, its configuration record
+@code{subids-configuration} and its extension record
+@code{subids-extension}.
+
+With @code{subids-service-type}, subuids and subgids ranges can be reserved for
+users that desire so:
+
+@lisp
+(use-modules (gnu system shadow) ;for 'subids-service-type'
+ (gnu system accounts) ;for 'subid-range'
+ @dots{})
+
+(operating-system
+ ;; @dots{}

+ (list
+ (simple-service 'alice-bob-subids
+ subids-service-type

+ (subgids
+ (list
+ (subid-range (name "alice"))))
+ (subuids
+ (list
+ (subid-range (name "alice"))
+ (subid-range (name "bob")
+ (start 100700)))))))))
+@end lisp
+
+Users (definitely other services), usually, are supposed to extend the service
+instead of adding subids directly to @code{subids-configuration}, unless the
+want to change the default behavior for root. With default settings the
+@code{subids-service-type} adds, if it's not already there, a configuration
+for the root account to both @file{/etc/subuid} and @file{/etc/subgid}, possibly
+starting at the minimum possible subid. Otherwise the root subuids and subgids
+ranges are fitted wherever possible.
+
+The above configuration will yield the following:
+
+@example
+# cat /etc/subgid
+root:100000:65536
+alice:165536:65536
+# cat /etc/subuid
+root:100000:700
+bob:100700:65536

So hmm, this is not great either because the ‘else’ branch has linear
complexity.

I don’t think there’s a good persistent data structure for this in Guile
unfortunately. Again maybe plain lists or vlists are okay *if* we know
the lists are going to be small, but there needs to be a comment stating
it.

Remove ‘message’ from here. If we want a human-readable message, we can
always raise a “compound error condition” that combines
‘&subordinate-id-range-error’ and ‘&message’.

But I’m not sure we want messages anyway; I think we should focus on
ensuring ‘&subordinate-id-range-error’ has all the info.

I’m not convinced by the use of (v)lists and the lack of abstraction
here.

How about having a tree along these lines:

(define-record-type <unused-subuid-range>
(unused-subuid-range left min max right)
unused-subuid-range?
(left unused-subuid-range-left) ;previous unused subuid range or #f
(min unused-subuid-range-min) ;lower bound of this unused subuid range
(max unused-subuid-range-max) ;upper bound
(right unused-subuid-range-right)) ;next unused subuid range or #f

We’d start with:

(unused-subuid-range #f %subordinate-id-min %subordinate-id-max #f)

Then, when consuming “to the left”, we’d add a child there, and so on.

Searching for an available range would be logarithmic.

Does that make sense?

(I’m really thinking out loud, this probably needs more thought.)

This is hard to read. It might be best to unroll the loop?

Also, I would check for ‘&subordinate-id-range-error’ details than for
messages: messages are for human beings, not for automated tests.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Hi Ludo’ ,

I think I have addressed your comments. I have now implemented two
separate code paths: - when the request is specific (i.e. the subid
range has a start) we can traverse the tree logarithmically

- when the request is generic (i.e. the subid range does not have a
start) the search is linear since all the nodes have to be visited worst
case to avoid leaving empty spaces interleaved, that could actually
evade requests


As for estimating the size of the input, I'm not sure I know enough to
answer this. My reasoning has been: in general the number of possible
subids (i.e. %subordinate-id-max - %subordinate-id-min) is huge. The use
case I have in mind for subids is rootless podman, so how many users in
average need to use rootless containers on a system and how many subids
are they to request in average are two very good questions I don't know
how to answer yet, or where I could find data for. Let me know if you
have any idea.


Please let me know if this v5 looks ok, thank you a lot for your help.

[PATCH v5 2/3] account: Add /etc/subid and /etc/subgid allocation logic.

This commit adds allocation logic for subid ranges. Subid ranges are
ranges of contiguous subids that are mapped to a user in the host
system. This patch implements a flexible allocation algorithm allowing
users that do not want (or need) to specify details of the subid ranges
that they are requesting to avoid doing so, while upholding requests of
users that need to have specific ranges.

[PATCH v5 3/3] system: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
7be849965238ddc6d30c696a5328b6c278d00565.1728340828.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a Guix System service to handle allocation of subuid
and subgid requests. Users that don't care can just add themselves as a
subid-range and don't need to specify anything but their user name.
Users that care about specific ranges, such as possibly LXD, can specify
a start and a count.

* doc/guix.texi: Document the new service.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-subuids+subgids): New variable.
* gnu/local.mk: Add gnu/tests/shadow.scm.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->subid-range): New variable.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (%root-subid): New variable;
(subids-configuration): new record;
(subid-range->gexp): new variable;
(assert-valid-subids): new variable;

(append-subid-ranges): new variable;
(subids-extension-merge): new variable;

+@cindex Subids
+@subsubheading Subid Service
+
+Among the virtualization facilities implemented by the Linux kernel, the is the
+concept of subordinate IDs. Subordinate IDs allow for mapping user and group
+IDs inside process namespaces to user and group IDs of the host system.
+Subordinate user ID ranges (subids) allow to map virtual user IDs inside
+containers to the user ID of an unprivileged user of the host system.
+Subordinate group ID ranges (subgids), instead map virtual group IDs to the
+group ID of an unprivileged user on the host system. You can access
+@code{subuid(5)} and @code{subgid(5)} Linux man pages for more details.
+
+The @code{(gnu system shadow)} module exposes the
+@code{subids-service-type}, its configuration record
+@code{subids-configuration} and its extension record
+@code{subids-extension}.
+
+With @code{subids-service-type}, subuids and subgids ranges can be reserved for
+users that desire so:
+
+@lisp
+(use-modules (gnu system shadow) ;for 'subids-service-type'
+ (gnu system accounts) ;for 'subid-range'
+ @dots{})
+
+(operating-system
+ ;; @dots{}
+ (services
+ (list
+ (simple-service 'alice-bob-subids
+ subids-service-type
+ (subids-extension
+ (subgids
+ (list
+ (subid-range (name "alice"))))
+ (subuids
+ (list
+ (subid-range (name "alice"))
+ (subid-range (name "bob")
+ (start 100700)))))))))
+@end lisp
+
+Users (definitely other services), usually, are supposed to extend the service
+instead of adding subids directly to @code{subids-configuration}, unless the
+want to change the default behavior for root. With default settings the
+@code{subids-service-type} adds, if it's not already there, a configuration
+for the root account to both @file{/etc/subuid} and @file{/etc/subgid}, possibly
+starting at the minimum possible subid. Otherwise the root subuids and subgids
+ranges are fitted wherever possible.
+
+The above configuration will yield the following:
+
+@example
+# cat /etc/subgid
+root:100000:65536
+alice:165536:65536
+# cat /etc/subuid
+root:100000:700
+bob:100700:65536

[PATCH v5 1/3] accounts: Add /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid support.
(address . 72337@debbugs.gnu.org)(name . Giacomo Leidi)(address . goodoldpaul@autistici.org)
b53d485a42175766221e9e0d76b25c5042c27f61.1728340828.git.goodoldpaul@autistici.org
This commit adds a new record type, <subid-entry> and serializers
and deserializers for it in (gnu build accounts). Each instance of this
record represents one line in either /etc/subuid or /etc/subgid. Since
Shadow uses the same representation for both files, it should be ok if
we do it as well.

This commit adds also <subid-range>, a user facing representation of
<subid-entry>. It is supposed to be usable directly in OS configurations.

* gnu/build/accounts.scm (subid-entry): New record;
(write-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(write-subuid): add serializer for subuids;
(read-subgid): add serializer for subgids;
(read-subuid): add serializer for subuids.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (subid-range): New record.
* test/accounts.scm: Test them.

Hi,

Applied (along with the previous one) with one minor nit:

I changed “illegal” to “invalid” everywhere.

Applied as well! I took the liberty to make the changes below to the
documentation.

I’m sorry that it took me so long. I appreciate your patience and the
time you took to polish this patch series; I like the end result! And I
realize it’s quite an important feature that will unlock a few things.
Thumbs up!

Thanks,
Ludo’.
