Hello,
I propose adding support of
security.idmap.size
for non-isolated containers.Currently non-isolated containers take all the IDs available in subuid and subgid.
This can be problem when mixing isolated and non-isolated containers.
Isolated containers take each non-overlapping ID ranges starting with ID 65536.
Non-isolated containers take all the range starting with ID 0.
This can be problem because non-isolated can affect ranges of isolated containers.
Ability to use
security.idmap.size
for non-isolated containers would allow us to restrict them just to first 65536 IDs which are not used by isolated containers and there wouldnt by any overlap.This way non-isolated containers could affect each other but couldnt affect any isolated containers.
