check_root() both checks to see if we are root (in the init namespace),
and if we are drops to an unprivileged user. To make future cleanups
simpler, split the checking for root (now in check_root()) from the actual
dropping of privilege (now in drop_root()).
Note that this does slightly alter semantics. Previously we would only
setuid() if we were originally root (in the init namespace). Now we will
always setuid() and setgid(), though it won't actually change anything if
we weren't privileged to begin with. This also means that we will now
always attempt to switch to the user specified with --runas, even if we
aren't (init namespace) root to begin with. Obviously this will fail with
an error if we weren't privileged to start with. --help and the man page
are updated accordingly.

c->uid and c->gid are first set in conf(), and last used in check_root()
itself called from conf(). Therefore these don't need to be fields in the
long lived context structure and can instead be locals in conf().

Commit a951e0b9ef ("conf: Add --runas option, changing to given UID
and GID if started as root") dropped the call to initgroups() that
used to add supplementary groups corresponding to the user we'll
eventually run as -- we don't need those.
However, if the original user belongs to supplementary groups
(usually not the case, if started as root), we don't drop those,
now, and rpmlint says:
passt.x86_64: E: missing-call-to-setgroups-before-setuid /usr/bin/passt
passt.x86_64: E: missing-call-to-setgroups-before-setuid /usr/bin/passt.avx2
Add a call to setgroups() with an empty set, to drop any
supplementary group we might currently have, before changing GID
and UID.

The context structure contains a batch of fields specific to IPv4 and to
IPv6 connectivity. Split those out into a sub-structure.
This allows the conf_ip4() and conf_ip6() functions, which take the
entire context but touch very little of it, to be given more specific
parameters, making it clearer what it affects without stepping through the
code.

It's quite plausible for a host to have both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity,
but only via different interfaces. For example, this will happen in the
case that IPv6 connectivity is via a tunnel (e.g. 6in4 or 6rd). It would
also happen in the case that IPv4 access is via a tunnel on an otherwise
IPv6 only local network, which is a setup that might become more common in
the post IPv4 address exhaustion world.
In turns out there's no real need for passt/pasta to get its IPv4 and IPv6
connectivity via the same interface, so we can handle this situation fairly
easily. Change the core to allow eparate external interfaces for IPv4 and
IPv6. We don't actually set these separately for now.

On some systems, user and group "nobody" might not be available. The
new --runas option allows to override the default "nobody" choice if
started as root.
Now that we allow this, drop the initgroups() call that was used to
add any additional groups for the given user, as that might now
grant unnecessarily broad permissions. For instance, several
distributions have a "kvm" group to allow regular user access to
/dev/kvm, and we don't need that in passt or pasta.

Given that we don't do dynamic memory allocation, we need to bind

Implement a packet abstraction providing boundary and size checks
based on packet descriptors: packets stored in a buffer can be queued
into a pool (without storage of its own), and data can be retrieved
referring to an index in the pool, specifying offset and length.
Checks ensure data is not read outside the boundaries of buffer and
descriptors, and that packets added to a pool are within the buffer
range with valid offset and indices.
This implies a wider rework: usage of the "queueing" part of the
abstraction mostly affects tap_handler_{passt,pasta}() functions and
their callees, while the "fetching" part affects all the guest or tap
facing implementations: TCP, UDP, ICMP, ARP, NDP, DHCP and DHCPv6
handlers.

To reach (at least) a conceptually equivalent security level as
implemented by --enable-sandbox in slirp4netns, we need to create a
new mount namespace and pivot_root() into a new (empty) mountpoint, so
that passt and pasta can't access any filesystem resource after
initialisation.
While at it, also detach IPC, PID (only for passt, to prevent
vulnerabilities based on the knowledge of a target PID), and UTS
namespaces.
With this approach, if we apply the seccomp filters right after the
configuration step, the number of allowed syscalls grows further. To
prevent this, defer the application of seccomp policies after the
initialisation phase, before the main loop, that's where we expect bad
things to happen, potentially. This way, we get back to 22 allowed
syscalls for passt and 34 for pasta, on x86_64.
While at it, move #syscalls notes to specific code paths wherever it
conceptually makes sense.
We have to open all the file handles we'll ever need before
sandboxing:
- the packet capture file can only be opened once, drop instance
numbers from the default path and use the (pre-sandbox) PID instead
- /proc/net/tcp{,v6} and /proc/net/udp{,v6}, for automatic detection
of bound ports in pasta mode, are now opened only once, before
sandboxing, and their handles are stored in the execution context
- the UNIX domain socket for passt is also bound only once, before
sandboxing: to reject clients after the first one, instead of
closing the listening socket, keep it open, accept and immediately
discard new connection if we already have a valid one
Clarify the (unchanged) behaviour for --netns-only in the man page.
To actually make passt and pasta processes run in a separate PID
namespace, we need to unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) before forking to
background (if configured to do so). Introduce a small daemon()
implementation, __daemon(), that additionally saves the PID file
before forking. While running in foreground, the process itself can't
move to a new PID namespace (a process can't change the notion of its
own PID): mention that in the man page.
For some reason, fork() in a detached PID namespace causes SIGTERM
and SIGQUIT to be ignored, even if the handler is still reported as
SIG_DFL: add a signal handler that just exits.
We can now drop most of the pasta_child_handler() implementation,
that took care of terminating all processes running in the same
namespace, if pasta started a shell: the shell itself is now the
init process in that namespace, and all children will terminate
once the init process exits.
Issuing 'echo $$' in a detached PID namespace won't return the
actual namespace PID as seen from the init namespace: adapt
demo and test setup scripts to reflect that.

Just return zero or one there, no callers are interested in the actual

PASTA (Pack A Subtle Tap Abstraction) provides quasi-native host
connectivity to an otherwise disconnected, unprivileged network
and user namespace, similarly to slirp4netns. Given that the
implementation is largely overlapping with PASST, no separate binary
is built: 'pasta' (and 'passt4netns' for clarity) both link to
'passt', and the mode of operation is selected depending on how the
binary is invoked. Usage example:
$ unshare -rUn
# echo $$
1871759
$ ./pasta 1871759 # From another terminal
# udhcpc -i pasta0 2>/dev/null
# ping -c1 pasta.pizza

This entails a major rework, especially with regard to the storage of
tracked connections and to the semantics of epoll(7) references.
Indexing TCP and UDP bindings merely by socket proved to be
inflexible and unsuitable to handle different connection flows: pasta
also provides Layer-2 to Layer-2 socket mapping between init and a
separate namespace for local connections, using a pair of splice()
system calls for TCP, and a recvmmsg()/sendmmsg() pair for UDP local
bindings. For instance, building on the previous example:
# ip link set dev lo up
# iperf3 -s
$ iperf3 -c ::1 -Z -w 32M -l 1024k -P2 | tail -n4
[SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 52.3 GBytes 44.9 Gbits/sec 283 sender
[SUM] 0.00-10.43 sec 52.3 GBytes 43.1 Gbits/sec receiver
iperf Done.
epoll(7) references now include a generic part in order to
demultiplex data to the relevant protocol handler, using 24
bits for the socket number, and an opaque portion reserved for
usage by the single protocol handlers, in order to track sockets
back to corresponding connections and bindings.
A number of fixes pertaining to TCP state machine and congestion
window handling are also included here.
