The pam_namespace PAM module sets up a private namespace for a session
with polyinstantiated directories. A polyinstantiated directory
provides a different instance of itself based on user name, or when
using SELinux, user name, security context or both. If an executable
script <code class="filename">/etc/security/namespace.init</code> exists, it
is used to initialize the instance directory after it is set up
and mounted on the polyinstantiated directory. The script receives the
polyinstantiated directory path, the instance directory path, flag
whether the instance directory was newly created (0 for no, 1 for yes),
and the user name as its arguments.
</p><p>
The pam_namespace module disassociates the session namespace from
the parent namespace. Any mounts/unmounts performed in the parent
namespace, such as mounting of devices, are not reflected in the
session namespace. To propagate selected mount/unmount events from
the parent namespace into the disassociated session namespace, an
administrator may use the special shared-subtree feature. For
additional information on shared-subtree feature, please refer to
the mount(8) man page and the shared-subtree description at
http://lwn.net/Articles/159077 and http://lwn.net/Articles/159092.
</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="sag-namespace.conf-description"></a>6.22.2. DESCRIPTION</h3></div></div></div><p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>pam_namespace.so</em></span> module allows setup of
private namespaces with polyinstantiated directories.
Directories can be polyinstantiated based on user name
or, in the case of SELinux, user name, sensitivity level or complete security context. If an
executable script <code class="filename">/etc/security/namespace.init</code>
exists, it is used to initialize the namespace every time an instance
directory is set up and mounted. The script receives the polyinstantiated
directory path and the instance directory path as its arguments.
</p><p>
The <code class="filename">/etc/security/namespace.conf</code> file specifies
which directories are polyinstantiated, how they are polyinstantiated,
how instance directories would be named, and any users for whom
polyinstantiation would not be performed.
</p><p>
When someone logs in, the file <code class="filename">namespace.conf</code> is
scanned. Comments are marked by <span class="emphasis"><em>#</em></span> characters.
Each non comment line represents one polyinstantiated
directory. The fields are separated by spaces but can be quoted by
<span class="emphasis"><em>"</em></span> characters also escape
sequences <span class="emphasis"><em>\b</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>\n</em></span>, and
<span class="emphasis"><em>\t</em></span> are recognized. The fields are as follows:
</p><p><em class="replaceable"><code>polydir</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>instance_prefix</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>method</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>list_of_uids</code></em>
</p><p>
The first field, <em class="replaceable"><code>polydir</code></em>, is the absolute
pathname of the directory to polyinstantiate. The special string
<span class="emphasis"><em>$HOME</em></span> is replaced with the user's home directory,
and <span class="emphasis"><em>$USER</em></span> with the username. This field cannot
be blank.
</p><p>
The second field, <em class="replaceable"><code>instance_prefix</code></em> is
the string prefix used to build the pathname for the instantiation
of <polydir>. Depending on the polyinstantiation
<em class="replaceable"><code>method</code></em> it is then appended with
"instance differentiation string" to generate the final
instance directory path. This directory is created if it did not exist
already, and is then bind mounted on the <polydir> to provide an
instance of <polydir> based on the <method> column.
The special string <span class="emphasis"><em>$HOME</em></span> is replaced with the
user's home directory, and <span class="emphasis"><em>$USER</em></span> with the username.
This field cannot be blank.
</p><p>
The third field, <em class="replaceable"><code>method</code></em>, is the method
used for polyinstantiation. It can take these values; "user"
for polyinstantiation based on user name, "level" for
polyinstantiation based on process MLS level and user name, "context" for
polyinstantiation based on process security context and user name,
"tmpfs" for mounting tmpfs filesystem as an instance dir, and
"tmpdir" for creating temporary directory as an instance dir which is
removed when the user's session is closed.
Methods "context" and "level" are only available with SELinux. This
field cannot be blank.
</p><p>
The fourth field, <em class="replaceable"><code>list_of_uids</code></em>, is
a comma separated list of user names for whom the polyinstantiation
is not performed. If left blank, polyinstantiation will be performed
for all users. If the list is preceded with a single "~" character,
polyinstantiation is performed only for users in the list.
</p><p>
The <em class="replaceable"><code>method</code></em> field can contain also following
optional flags separated by <span class="emphasis"><em>:</em></span> characters.
</p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>create</em></span>=<em class="replaceable"><code>mode</code></em>,<em class="replaceable"><code>owner</code></em>,<em class="replaceable"><code>group</code></em>
- create the polyinstantiated directory. The mode, owner and group parameters
are optional. The default for mode is determined by umask, the default
owner is the user whose session is opened, the default group is the
primary group of the user.
</p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>iscript</em></span>=<em class="replaceable"><code>path</code></em>
- path to the instance directory init script. The base directory for relative
paths is <code class="filename">/etc/security/namespace.d</code>.
</p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>noinit</em></span>
- instance directory init script will not be executed.
</p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>shared</em></span>
- the instance directories for "context" and "level" methods will not
contain the user name and will be shared among all users.
</p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>mntopts</em></span>=<em class="replaceable"><code>value</code></em>
- value of this flag is passed to the mount call when the tmpfs mount is
done. It allows for example the specification of the maximum size of the
tmpfs instance that is created by the mount call. See <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">mount</span>(8)</span> for details.
</p><p>
The directory where polyinstantiated instances are to be
created, must exist and must have, by default, the mode of 0000. The
requirement that the instance parent be of mode 0000 can be overridden
with the command line option <span class="emphasis"><em>ignore_instance_parent_mode</em></span>
</p><p>
In case of context or level polyinstantiation the SELinux context
which is used for polyinstantiation is the context used for executing
a new process as obtained by getexeccon. This context must be set
by the calling application or <code class="filename">pam_selinux.so</code>
module. If this context is not set the polyinstatiation will be
based just on user name.
</p><p>
The "instance differentiation string" is <user name> for "user"
method and <user name>_<raw directory context> for "context"
and "level" methods. If the whole string is too long the end of it is
replaced with md5sum of itself. Also when command line option
<span class="emphasis"><em>gen_hash</em></span> is used the whole string is replaced
with md5sum of itself.

<code class="option">debug</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
A lot of debug information is logged using syslog
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">unmnt_remnt</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
For programs such as su and newrole, the login
session has already setup a polyinstantiated
namespace. For these programs, polyinstantiation
is performed based on new user id or security
context, however the command first needs to
undo the polyinstantiation performed by login.
This argument instructs the command to
first undo previous polyinstantiation before
proceeding with new polyinstantiation based on
new id/context
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">unmnt_only</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
For trusted programs that want to undo any
existing bind mounts and process instance
directories on their own, this argument allows
them to unmount currently mounted instance
directories
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">require_selinux</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
If selinux is not enabled, return failure
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">gen_hash</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Instead of using the security context string
for the instance name, generate and use its
md5 hash.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">ignore_config_error</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
If a line in the configuration file corresponding
to a polyinstantiated directory contains format
error, skip that line process the next line.
Without this option, pam will return an error
to the calling program resulting in termination
of the session.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">ignore_instance_parent_mode</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Instance parent directories by default are expected to have
the restrictive mode of 000. Using this option, an administrator
can choose to ignore the mode of the instance parent. This option
should be used with caution as it will reduce security and
isolation goals of the polyinstantiation mechanism.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">unmount_on_close</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Explicitly unmount the polyinstantiated directories instead
of relying on automatic namespace destruction after the last
process in a namespace exits. This option should be used
only in case it is ensured by other means that there cannot be
any processes running in the private namespace left after the
session close. It is also useful only in case there are
multiple pam session calls in sequence from the same process.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">use_current_context</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Useful for services which do not change the SELinux context
with setexeccon call. The module will use the current SELinux
context of the calling process for the level and context
polyinstantiation.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">use_default_context</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
Useful for services which do not use pam_selinux for changing
the SELinux context with setexeccon call. The module will use
the default SELinux context of the user for the level and context
polyinstantiation.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term">
<code class="option">mount_private</code>
</span></dt><dd><p>
This option can be used on systems where the / mount point or
its submounts are made shared (for example with a
<span class="command"><strong>mount --make-rshared /</strong></span> command).
The module will mark the whole directory tree so any mount and
unmount operations in the polyinstantiation namespace are private.
Normally the pam_namespace will try to detect the
shared / mount point and make the polyinstantiated directories
private automatically. This option has to be used just when
only a subtree is shared and / is not.
</p><p>
Note that mounts and unmounts done in the private namespace will not
affect the parent namespace if this option is used or when the
shared / mount point is autodetected.

</p><div class="literallayout"><p><br>
# The following three lines will polyinstantiate /tmp,<br>
# /var/tmp and user's home directories. /tmp and /var/tmp<br>
