As the mmdebstrap itself is executed as root, the generated rootfs will
also be owned by root when stored as file. To avoid this, we let
mmdebstrap emit the rootfs on stdout and write it to a file outside of
the sudo call.

The archive is world readable, so we can access it without root
privileges. By that, the files in the download dir are also owned by the
calling user, making the additional chown obsolete.

Do we need bash here or would /bin/sh suffice?

As we are only downloading and we are the only one acting on the rootfs,
it is safe to not lock the apt cache. By that, we can avoid complex file
ownerships in the tree.

As a preparation to enable rootless builds, we introduce wrappers for
common cases of privileged command execution. The wrappers are defined
in the base class where later on the executor dispatching will be
implemented as well.
The wrappers are introduced throughout the whole codebase and downstream
layers are also encouraged to use them to increase compatibility with
upcoming API changes.

From their names, these two commands sound to me like they differ in
where they are running the commands, not how. But from the description
it is the latter. "run_privileged_from_stdin"?

Are there sudos left in Isar after this conversion? If not, should we
start to catch sudo as invalid afterwards?

We ensure that the sstate artifact is always generated for the correct
rootfs directory by using the ROOTFSDIR variable instead of the
assumption that it is in "rootfs". Further, we avoid file permission
cleanup by using stdout to pass the artifact from the privileged space
to the caller.

Previously the initrd was deployed as root and later chowned in the
deploy dir. This involves privileged operations which will no longer be
possible when running rootless. To prepare for that, we deploy via a
stdout and create the target file by the correct user.
While doing this, we also remove a useless sudo invocation when listing
the ROOTFS/boot dir, as this can be listed by all users.

To: isar-users; +Cc: quirin.gylstorff, Felix Moessbauer
We previously deployed the image file as root and then chowned the
deployed files to the calling user. Hereby the chown command itself
requires to be run under root, which is not possible on rootless.
As a preparation for rootless, we rework the deploy logic to deploy the
files under the calling user. For that, we deploy to a temporary
directory within workdir that is writeable from inside the chroot and
then copy out under the calling user.

+### Changes to image types
+
+The way different image types are handled has changed to be be compatible with
+rootless builds. For that, the deployment of images happens in two steps:
+
+1. generate the image in the `${IMAGE_STAGE_CHROOT}`
+2. the `imager_run` or `${SUDO_CHROOT}` command takes care of deploying the image
+ into the `${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}`
+
+Conversion commands need to follow this strategy as well, but can read the image
+(prior to conversion) from `${IMAGE_FILE_CHROOT}`.

By introducing a bitbake python function (a code generator) to
generate the mount shell code, we make it reusable within here
documents where external shell functions cannot be called.

The implementation of the fetching depends on the chroot mode (e.g.
schroot or unshare). As a preparation for the unshare mode, we hide the
concrete fetcher implementation behind a factory, so that we will be
able to dispatch based on the mode.

From: 'Felix Moessbauer' via isar-users @ 2026-02-18 11:58 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: isar-users; +Cc: quirin.gylstorff, Felix Moessbauer
Currently isar requires passwordless sudo and an environment
where mounting file systems is possible. This has proven problematic
for security reasons, both when running in a privileged container or
locally.
To solve this, we implement fully rootless builds that rely on the
unshare syscall which allows us to avoid sudo and instead operate in
temporary kernel namespaces as a user that is just privileged within
that namespace. This comes with some challenges regarding the handling
of mounts (they are cleared when leaving the namespace), as well as
cross namespace deployments (the outer user might not be able to access
the inner data). For that, we rework the handling of mounts and artifact
passing to make it compatible with both chroot modes (schroot and
unshare).

Conversion commands need to follow this strategy as well, but can read the image
(prior to conversion) from `${IMAGE_FILE_CHROOT}`.
+
+### Rootless isar execution
+
+Isar is able to run without the need for `sudo` in an environment that
+allows unprivileged users to unshare the kernels `user namespace`. Further,
+a sufficiently large set of sub ids needs to be configured in `/etc/subuid` / `etc/subgid`.
+This range should be `> 65536`, but smaller ranges might work as well, depending on the
+ids used in the rootfs.
+
+A simple check if rootless is supported can be done by running:
+
+```bash
+mmdebstrap --unshare-helper /bin/echo "rootless supported" || echo "rootless not supported"
+```
+
+On many systems, setting the following settings is sufficent, but no general guidance
+can be provided.
+
+```bash
+echo 0 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/kernel/apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns
+echo 1 | sudo tee -a /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone
+```
+
+To enable rootless builds, set the bitbake variable `ISAR_ROOTLESS = "1"`.
+This internally switches the chroot mode from `schroot` to `unshare`.
+
+When using kas, the `build_system` needs to be set to `isar-rootless`, but the final
+interfaces still need to be clarified. Further, kas patches are needed (for details,
+check the kas mailing list).

This might be an Ubuntu patch, right? Should be clarified.

This is Debian-only (see e.g.
https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/-/blob/debian/latest/debian/patches/debian/add-sysctl-to-disallow-unprivileged-CLONE_NEWUSER-by-default.patch?ref_type=heads).
But it's on by default now.

You didn't patch kas/isar.yaml as well - might be a trap for people not

Hmm, just testing xenomai-images with this and minimal changes for
itself (buildsystem update). It seems to build the kernel - put only on
a single core. This part looks still fine:
# $PARALLEL_MAKE
# set? /work/build/../isar/meta/conf/bitbake.conf:135
# "-j ${@bb.utils.cpu_count()}"
PARALLEL_MAKE="-j 16"
But the "-j 16" does not end up in the actually make call of the kernel
build. How could we possibly lose this?
I wanted to test if rootfull mode with your patches applied may answer
this, but:
...

I bet you can reproduce with plane Isar and a linux-mailine build as
well.

FWIW, I'm no longer seeing that PARALLEL_MAKE is even defined inside
sbuild (this is normally logged). Maybe the different sbuild mode needs
a different way of passing env vars in?
