<title>Unprivileged containers</title>
<para>
Unprivileged LXC containers run without root host-level privileges in a
user namespace, mapping container UID 0 to a non-root host ID, which
strictly limits the accessible devices and filesystems of the
container. In order to mount a rootfs in an unprivileged container, the
mapped host user must have execute permissions for all directories
along the path to and including the rootfs. Additionally, all files and
directories under the rootfs must be owned by the correct user ID and
group ID. The correct user ID and group ID are the host IDs mapped to
the container root(UID 0) in lxc.idmap.
