passt is allowed to run as "root" (UID 0) in a user namespace, but notas
real root in the init namespace. We read /proc/self/uid_map to determine
if we're in the init namespace or not.
If we're unable to open /proc/self/uid_map we assume we're ok and
continue running as UID 0. This seems unwise. The only instances I
can think of where uid_map won't be available are if the host kernel
doesn't support namespaces, or /proc is not mounted. In neither case
is it safe to assume we're "not really" root and continue (although in
practice we'd likely fail for other reasons pretty soon anyway).
Therefore, fail with an error in this case, instead of carrying on.

Currently the logic to work out what UID and GID we will run as is spread
across conf(). If --runas is specified it's handled in conf_runas(),
otherwise it's handled by check_root(), which depends on initialization of
the uid and gid variables by either conf() itself or conf_runas().
Make this clearer by putting all the UID and GID logic into a single
conf_ugid() function.

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.

test_iperf3() is a pretty inscrutable mess of nested background processes.
It has a number of ugly sleeps needed to wait for things to complete.
Rewrite it to be cleaner:
* Use the construct (a & b & wait) to run 'a' and 'b' in parallel, but
then wait for them both to complete before continuing
* This allows us to wait for both the server and client to finish, rather
than sleeping
* Use jq to do all the math we need to get the final result, rather than
jq followed by some complicated 'bc' mangling

These two commands in the DSL to run an iperf client and server are always
used together, and some of the parameters must match between them. The
iperf3s must also be run more or less immediately after iperf3c, since
iperf3c will run a client in the background after a sleep and requires a
server to be running before it will work.
A bunch of things can be made cleaner if we make a single DSL command that
runs both sides of the test. For now make the combined command work
exactly like the two commands together did, warts and all.
This does lose the ability for the DSL scripts to give additional options
to the iperf3 server, but we weren't using that anyway.

When not given an existing PID or network namspace to attach to, pasta
spawns a shell. Most commands which can spawn a shell in an altered
environment can also run other commands in that same environment, which can
be useful in automation.
Allow pasta to do the same thing; it can be given an arbitrary command to
run in the network and user namespace which pasta creates. If neither a
command nor an existing PID or netns to attach to is given, continue to
spawn a default shell, as before.

When attaching to an existing namespace, pasta can take a PID or the name
or path of a network namespace as a non-option parameter. We disambiguate
based on what the parameter looks like. Make this more explicit by using
a --netns option for explicitly giving the path or name, and treating a
non-option argument always as a PID.

pasta takes as its only non-option argument either a PID to attach to the
namespaces of, a PATH to a network namespace or a NAME of a network
namespace (relative to /run/netns). Currently to determine which it is
we try all 3 in that order, and if anything goes wrong we move onto the
next.
This has the potential to cause very confusing failure modes. e.g. if the
argument is intended to be a network namespace name, but a (non-namespace)
file of the same name exists in the current directory.
Make behaviour more predictable by choosing how to treat the argument based
only on the argument's contents, not anything else on the system:
- If it's a decimal integer treat it as a PID
- Otherwise, if it has no '/' characters, treat it as a netns name
(ip-netns doesn't allow '/' in netns names)
- Otherwise, treat it as a netns path
If you want to open a persistent netns in the current directory, you can
use './netns'.
This also allows us to split the parsing of the PID|PATH|NAME option from
the actual opening of the namespaces. In turn that allows us to put the
opening of existing namespaces next to the opening of new namespaces in
pasta_start_ns. That makes the logical flow easier to follow and will
enable later cleanups.
Caveats:
- The separation of functions mean we will always generate the basename
and dirname for the netns_quit system, even when using PID namespaces.
This is pointless, since the netns_quit system doesn't work for non
persistent namespaces, but is harmless.

pasta can identify a netns as a "name", which is to say a path relative to
(usually) /run/netns, which is the place that ip(8) creates persistent
network namespaces. Alternatively a full path to a netns can be given.
The --nsrun-dir option allows the user to change the standard path where
netns names are resolved. However, there's no real point to this, if the
user wants to override the location of the netns, they can just as easily
use the full path to specify the netns.

The man page states that the --userns option can be given either as a path
or as a name relative to --nsrun-dir. This is not correct: as the name

*userns* resolution.

Both the -D (--dns) and -S (--search) options take an optional argument.
If the argument is omitted the option is disabled entirely. However,
handling the optional argument requires some ugly special case handling if
it's the last option on the command line, and has potential ambiguity with
non-option arguments used with pasta. It can also make it more confusing
to read command lines.

Comments suggest this is because it's before we fork() into the background

However, as the name suggests CLOEXEC closes on exec(), not on fork(). The
only place we exec() is either super early invoke the avx2 version of the

The test scripts run with sh -e, which means they will stop if any commands
return an error. That's generally desirable, because we won't continue
after things are hopeless due to an earlier step failing.
Unfortunately, the tmux setup we run the script in means it's not obvious
where any error messages related to such a failure will go. Depending on
exactly where the error occurs they might go to the original terminal
hidden behind tmux, or they might go to a tmux panel that's not visible in
the normal layouts.
To make it easier to find such error message, redirect direct output and
errors from the test script itself to a 'script.log' file in the logs
directory. When in DEBUG=1 mode, additionaly 'set -x' so we log all the
commands we execute to that file.

The "valgrind" test cases are designed to pick up errors reported when

the passt process, then see if it had a non-zero exit code. That means it
will equally well pick up any other problems which caused passt to exit
with an error status: either something detected within passt or as a result
of passt being killed by an unexpected signal.
The fact that the "valgrind" test is actually responsible for shutting down
the passt process is non-obvious and can lead to problems when selectively
running tests during debugging.
