[PATCH 0/2] unshare: manage binfmt_misc mounts

[Laurent Vivier <laurent@vivier.eu>]

Since linux v6.7 and
commit 21ca59b365c0 ("binfmt_misc: enable sandboxed mounts"),
binfmt_misc can be mountable in a non-initial user namespace by
a non privileged user.

Extend unshare to manage it:

- add --mount-binfmt[=<dir>] to mount binfmt_misc filesystem, this
  results in clearing inherited interpreters from the previous namespace

- add -l, --load-interp <file> to load a binfmt_misc interpreter at startup.

  The interpreter is loaded from the initial fileystem if the 'F' flags is
  provided, otherwise from inside the new namespace
  This makes possible to start a chroot of another architecture without
  being root.

For instance:

  With 'F' flag, load the interpreter from the initial namespace:

  Without 'F' flag, from inside the namespace:

    $ unshare --map-root-user --fork --pid --load-interp=":qemu-m68k:M::\\x7fELF\\x01\\x02\\x01\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x02\\x00\\x04:\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xfe\\x00\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xff\\xfe\\xff\\xff:/qemu-m68k:OC" --root=chroot/m68k/sid
