-# The Container Interface
-
-Also consult [Writing Virtual Machine or Container
-Managers](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/writing-vm-managers).
-
-systemd has a number of interfaces for interacting with container managers,
-when systemd is used inside of an OS container. If you work on a container
-manager, please consider supporting the following interfaces.
-
-## Execution Environment
-
-1. If the container manager wants to control the hostname for a container
-   running systemd it should just set it before invoking systemd, and systemd
-   will leave it unmodified (that is unless there's an explicit hostname
-   configured in `/etc/hostname` which overrides whatever is pre-initialized by
-   the container manager).
-
-2. Make sure to pre-mount `/proc/`, `/sys/` and `/sys/fs/selinux/` before
-   invoking systemd, and mount `/proc/sys/`, `/sys/` and `/sys/fs/selinux/`
-   read-only in order to avoid that the container can alter the host kernel's
-   configuration settings. (As special exception, if your container has network
-   namespaces enabled, feel free to make `/proc/sys/net/` writable). systemd
-   and various other subsystems (such as the SELinux userspace) have been
-   modified to detect whether these file systems are read-only, and will behave
-   accordingly. (It's OK to mount `/sys/` as `tmpfs` btw, and only mount a
-   subset of its sub-trees from the real `sysfs` to hide `/sys/firmware/`,
-   `/sys/kernel/` and so on. If you do that, still make sure to mark `/sys/`
-   read-only, as that condition is what systemd looks for, and is what is
-   considered to be the API in this context.)
-
-3. Pre-mount `/dev/` as (container private) `tmpfs` for the container and bind
-   mount some suitable TTY to `/dev/console`. Also, make sure to create device
-   nodes for `/dev/null`, `/dev/zero`, `/dev/full`, `/dev/random`,
-   `/dev/urandom`, `/dev/tty`, `/dev/ptmx` in `/dev/`. It is not necessary to
-   create `/dev/fd` or `/dev/stdout`, as systemd will do that on its own. Make
-   sure to set up a `BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_DEVICE` BPF program — on cgroupv2 —
-   or the `devices` cgroup controller — on cgroupv1 — so that no other devices
-   but these may be created in the container. Note that many systemd services
-   these days use `PrivateDevices=`, which means that systemd will set up a
-   private `/dev/` for them for which it needs to be able to create these
-   device nodes. Dropping `CAP_MKNOD` for containers is hence generally not
-   advisable, but see below.
-
-4. `systemd-udevd` is not available in containers (and refuses to start), and hence device
-   dependencies are unavailable. The `systemd-udevd` unit files will check for `/sys/`
-   being read-only, as an indication whether device management can work. Hence
-   make sure to mount `/sys/` read-only in the container (see above). Various
-   clients to `systemd-udevd` also check the read-only state of `/sys/` in some cases,
-   including PID 1 itself and `systemd-networkd`.
-
-5. If systemd detects it is run in a container it will spawn a single shell on
-   `/dev/console`, and not care about VTs or multiple gettys on VTs. (But see
-   `$container_ttys` below.)
-
-6. Either pre-mount all cgroup hierarchies in full into the container, or leave
-   that to systemd which will do so if they are missing. Note that it is
-   explicitly *not* OK to just mount a sub-hierarchy into the container as that
-   is incompatible with `/proc/$PID/cgroup` (which lists full paths). Also the
-   root-level cgroup directories tend to be quite different from inner
-   directories, and that distinction matters. It is OK however, to mount the
-   "upper" parts read-only of the hierarchies, and only allow write-access to
-   the cgroup sub-tree the container runs in. It's also a good idea to mount
-   all controller hierarchies with exception of `name=systemd` fully read-only
-   (this only applies to cgroupv1, of course), to protect the controllers from
-   alteration from inside the containers. Or to turn this around: only the
-   cgroup sub-tree of the container itself (on cgroupv2 in the unified
-   hierarchy, and on cgroupv1 in the `name=systemd` hierarchy) must be writable
-   to the container.
-
-7. Create the control group root of your container by either running your
-   container as a service (in case you have one container manager instance per
-   container instance) or creating one scope unit for each container instance
-   via systemd's transient unit API (in case you have one container manager
-   that manages all instances. Either way, make sure to set `Delegate=yes` in
-   it. This ensures that that the unit you created will be part of all cgroup
-   controllers (or at least the ones systemd understands). The latter may also
-   be done via `systemd-machined`'s `CreateMachine()` API. Make sure to use the
-   cgroup path systemd put your process in for all operations of the
-   container. Do not add new cgroup directories to the top of the tree. This
-   will not only confuse systemd and the admin, but also ensure your
-   implementation is not "stackable".
-
-## Environment Variables
-
-1. To allow systemd (and other code) to identify that it is executed within a
-   container, please set the `$container=` environment variable for PID 1 in
-   the container to a short lowercase string identifying your
-   implementation. With this in place the `ConditionVirtualization=` setting in
-   unit files will work properly. Example: `container=lxc-libvirt`
-
-2. systemd has special support for allowing container managers to initialize
-   the UUID for `/etc/machine-id` to some manager supplied value. This is only
-   enabled if `/etc/machine-id` is empty (i.e. not yet set) at boot time of the
-   container. The container manager should set `$container_uuid=` as
-   environment variable for the container's PID 1 to the container UUID it
-   wants to set. (This is similar to the effect of `qemu`'s `-uuid`
-   switch). Note that you should pass only a UUID here that is actually unique
-   (i.e. only one running container should have a specific UUID), and gets
-   changed when a container gets duplicated. Also note that systemd will try to
-   persistently store the UUID in `/etc/machine-id` (if writable) when this
-   option is used, hence you should always pass the same UUID here. Keeping the
-   externally used UUID for a container and the internal one in sync is
-   hopefully useful to minimize surprise for the administrator.
-
-3. systemd can automatically spawn login gettys on additional ptys. A container
-   manager can set the `$container_ttys=` environment variable for the
-   container's PID 1 to tell it on which ptys to spawn gettys. The variable
-   should take a space separated list of pty names, without the leading `/dev/`
-   prefix, but with the `pts/` prefix included. Note that despite the
-   variable's name you may only specify ptys, and not other types of ttys. Also
-   you need to specify the pty itself, a symlink will not suffice. This is
-   implemented in
-   [systemd-getty-generator(8)](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-getty-generator.html). Note
-   that this variable should not include the pty that `/dev/console` maps to if
-   it maps to one (see below). Example: if the container receives
-   `container_ttys=pts/7 pts/8 pts/14` it will spawn three additionally login
-   gettys on ptys 7, 8 and 14.
-
-## Advanced Integration
-
-1. Consider syncing `/etc/localtime` from the host file system into the
-   container. Make it a relative symlink to the containers's zoneinfo dir, as
-   usual. Tools rely on being able to determine the timezone setting from the
-   symlink value, and by making it relative it looks nice even if people list
-   the containers' `/etc/` from the host.
-
-2. Make the container journal available in the host, by automatically
-   symlinking the container journal directory into the host journal
-   directory. More precisely, link `/var/log/journal/<container-machine-id>` of
-   the container into the same dir of the host. Administrators can then
-   automatically browse all container journals (correctly interleaved) by
-   issuing `journalctl -m`. The container machine ID you can determine from
-   `/etc/machine-id` in the container.
-
-3. If the container manager wants to cleanly shutdown the container, it might
-   be a good idea to send `SIGRTMIN+3` to its init process. systemd will then do a
-   clean shutdown. Note however, that only systemd understands `SIGRTMIN+3` like
-   this, this might confuse other init systems.
-
-4. To support [Socket Activated
-   Containers](http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/socket-activated-containers.html)
-   the container manager should be capable of being run as a systemd
-   service. It will then receive the sockets starting with FD 3, the number of
-   passed FDs in `$LISTEN_FDS` and its PID as `$LISTEN_PID`. It should take
-   these and pass them on to the container's init process, also setting
-   $LISTEN_FDS and `$LISTEN_PID` (basically, it can just leave the FDs and
-   `$LISTEN_FDS` untouched, but it needs to set `$LISTEN_PID` to for the
-   container init process). That's all that's necessary to make socket
-   activation work. The protocol to hand sockets from systemd to services is
-   hence the same as from a container manager to a container systemd. For
-   further details see the explanations of
-   [sd_listen_fds(1)](http://0pointer.de/public/systemd-man/sd_listen_fds.html)
-   and the [blog story for service
-   developers](http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/socket-activation.html).
-
-5. Container managers should stay away from the `name=systemd` cgroup hierarchy
-   outside of the unit they created for their container. That's private
-   property of systemd, and no other code should interfere with it.
-
-## Networking
-
-1. Inside of a container, if a `veth` link is named `host0`, `systemd-networkd`
-   running inside of the container will by default do DHCPv4 client, DHCPv6
-   client and IPv4LL on it. It is thus recommended that container managers that
-   add a `veth` link to a container name it `host0`, to get automatically
-   configured networked, with no manual interference from outside.
-
-2. Outside of a container, if a `veth` link is prefixed "ve-" will by default do
-   DHCPv4 server and DHCPv6 serer on it, as well as IPv4LL. It is thus recommended
-   that container managers that add a `veth` link to a container name the external
-   side `ve-` followed by the container name.
-
-3. It is recommended to configure stable MAC addresses to container `veth`
-   devices, for example hashed out of the container names. That way it is more
-   likely that DHCP and IPv4LL will acquire stable addresses.
-
-## What You Shouldn't Do
-
-1. Do not drop `CAP_MKNOD` from the container. `PrivateDevices=` is a commonly
-   used service setting that provides a service with its own, private, minimal
-   version of `/dev/`. To set this up systemd in the container needs this
-   capability. If you take away the capability than all services that set this
-   flag will cease to work, and this are increasingly many, as we encourage
-   people to make use of this functionality. Use `BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_DEVICE`
-   BPF programs — on cgroupv2 — or the `devices` controller — on cgroupv1 — to
-   restrict what device nodes the container can create instead of taking away
-   the capability wholesale. (Also see section about fully unprivileged
-   containers below.)
-
-2. Do not drop `CAP_SYS_ADMIN` from the container. A number of file system
-   namespacing related settings, such as `PrivateDevices=`, `ProtectHome=`,
-   `ProtectSystem=`, `MountFlags=`, `PrivateTmp=`, `ReadWriteDirectories=`,
-   `ReadOnlyDirectories=`, `InaccessibleDirectories=`, `MountFlags=` need to be
-   able to open new mount namespaces and the mount certain file system into
-   it. You break all services that make use of these flags if you drop the
-   flag. Note that already quite a number of services make use of this as we
-   actively encourage users to make use of this security functionality. Also
-   note that logind mounts `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` as `tmpfs` for all logged in users
-   and won't work either if you take away the capability. (Also see section
-   about fully unprivileged containers below.)
-
-3. Do not cross-link `/dev/kmsg` with `/dev/console`. They are different things,
-   you cannot link them to each other.
-
-4. Do not pretend that the real VTs would be available in the containers. The
-   VT subsystem consists of all devices `/dev/tty*`, `/dev/vcs*`, `/dev/vcsa*`
-   plus their `sysfs` counterparts. They speak specific `ioctl()`s and
-   understand specific escape sequences, that other ptys don't
-   understand. Hence, it is explicitly not OK to mount a pty to `/dev/tty1`,
-   `/dev/tty2`, `/dev/tty3`. This is explicitly not supported.
-
-5. Don't pretend that passing arbitrary devices to containers could really work
-   well. For example, do not pass device nodes for block devices, … to the
-   container. Device access (with the exception of network devices) is not
-   virtualized on Linux. Enumeration and probing of meta information from
-   `/sys/` and elsewhere is not possible to do correctly in a container. Simply
-   adding a specific device node to a container's `/dev/` is *not* *enough* to
-   do the job, as `systemd-udevd` and suchlike are not available at all, and no
-   devices will appear available or enumerable, inside the container.
-
-6. Don't mount only a sub-tree of the `cgroupfs` into the container. This will not
-   work as `/proc/$PID/cgroup` lists full paths and cannot be matched up with
-   the actual `cgroupfs` tree visible, then. (You may "prune" some branches
-   though, see above.)
-
-7. Do not make `/sys/` writable in the container. If you do,
-   `systemd-udevd.service` is started to manage your devices — inside the
-   container —, but that will cause conflicts and errors given that the Linux
-   device model is not virtualized for containers on Linux and thus the
-   containers and the host would try to manage the same devices, fighting for
-   ownership. Multiple other subsystems of systemd similarly test for `/sys/`
-   being writable to decide whether to use `systemd-udevd` or assume that
-   device management is properly available on the instance. Among them
-   `systemd-networkd` and `systemd-logind`. The conditionalization on the
-   read-only state of `/sys/` enables a nice automatism: as soon as `/sys/` and
-   the Linux device model are changed to be virtualized properly the container
-   payload can make use of that, simply by marking `/sys/` writable. (Note that
-   as special exception, the devices in `/sys/class/net/` are virtualized
-   already, if network namespacing is used. Thus it is OK to mount the relevant
-   sub-directories of `/sys/` writable, but make sure to leave the root of
-   `/sys/` read-only.)
-
-## Fully Unprivileged Container Payload
-
-First things first, to make this clear: Linux containers are not a security
-technology right now. There are more holes in the model than in a swiss cheese.
-
-For example: If you do not use user namespacing, and share root and other users
-between container and host, the `struct user` structures will be shared between
-host and container, and hence `RLIMIT_NPROC` and so of the container users affect
-the host and other containers, and vice versa. This is a major security hole,
-and actually is a real-life problem: since Avahi sets `RLIMIT_NPROC` of its user
-to 2 (to effectively disallow `fork()`ing) you cannot run more than one Avahi
-instance on the entire system...
-
-People have been asking to be able to run systemd without `CAP_SYS_ADMIN` and
-`CAP_SYS_MKNOD` in the container. This is now supported to some level in
-systemd, but we recommend against it (see above). If `CAP_SYS_ADMIN` and
-`CAP_SYS_MKNOD` are missing from the container systemd will now gracefully turn
-off `PrivateTmp=`, `PrivateNetwork=`, `ProtectHome=`, `ProtectSystem=` and
-others, because those capabilities are required to implement these options. The
-services using these settings (which include many of systemd's own) will hence
-run in a different, less secure environment when the capabilities are missing
-than with them around.
-
-With user namespacing in place things get much better. With user namespaces the
-`struct user` issue described above goes away, and containers can keep
-`CAP_SYS_ADMIN` safely for the user namespace, as capabilities are virtualized
-and having capabilities inside a container doesn't mean one also has them
-outside.
-
-## Final Words
-
-If you write software that wants to detect whether it is run in a container,
-please check `/proc/1/environ` and look for the `container=` environment
-variable. Do not assume the environment variable is inherited down the process
-tree. It generally is not. Hence check the environment block of PID 1, not your
-own. Note though that that file is only accessible to root. systemd hence early
-on also copies the value into `/run/systemd/container`, which is readable for
-everybody. However, that's a systemd-specific interface and other init systems
-are unlikely to do the same.
-
-Note that it is our intention to make systemd systems work flawlessly and
-out-of-the-box in containers. In fact we are interested to ensure that the same
-OS image can be booted on a bare system, in a VM and in a container, and behave
-correctly each time. If you notice that some component in systemd does not work
-in a container as it should, even though the container manager implements
-everything documented above, please contact us.
