.Sh NAME
.Nm xbps-uchroot
.Nd XBPS utility to chroot and bind mount with linux namespaces
.Sh SYNOPSYS
.Nm xbps-uchroot
.Op OPTIONS
.Ar CHROOTDIR
.Ar COMMAND
.Op ARGS
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
utility allows users to chroot and bind mount required pseudo-filesystems
(/dev, /proc and /sys) in the target
.Ar CHROOTDIR
to execute
.Ar COMMAND .
The
.Nm
utility uses by default Linux namespaces to isolate IPC, PIDs and mounts to
the calling process. If running in a OpenVZ container, these namespace features
are simply disabled.
.Sh OPTIONS
.Bl -tag -width -x
.It Fl D Ar dir
Specifies a full path to a directory that will be bind mounted at
.Ar CHROOTDIR/xbps-packages .
.It Fl H Ar dir
Specifies a full path to a directory that will be bind mounted at
.Ar CHROOTDIR/host .
.It Fl S Ar dir
Specifies a full path to a directory to allow shm functionality to be used
in the target
.Ar CHROOTDIR/dir .
If your system uses
.Sy /dev/shm
use it, otherwise use
.Sy /run/shm .
.Sh SECURITY
The
.Nm
executable must be setgid to function properly and shall only be executable by a specific
group to avoid security issues (4750).
.Sh NOTES
The
.Nm
utility uses Linux specific features (namespaces) and it's not meant to be portable to
other Operating Systems.
