Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] lxc: Set max uid/gid mappings for user namespace

There is a limit on the number of lines in the /proc/<pid>/{g,u}id_map files. In Linux 4.14 and earlier, this limit was (arbitrarily) set at 5 lines. Since Linux 4.15, which was released on 28 Jan 2018, the limit is 340 lines. This change is documented in user_namespaces(7). https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit...
