The file should have been in /usr/lib/ in the first place, since it describes the OS container in /usr (and not the configuration in /etc), hence, let's support os-release files in /usr/lib as fallback if no version in /etc exists, following the usual override logic. A prior commit already enabled tmpfiles to create /etc/os-release as a symlink to /usr/lib/os-release should it be missing, thus providing nice compatibility with applications only checking in /etc. While it's probably a good idea if all apps check both locations via a fallback logic, it is only necessary in the early boot process, as long as the /etc/os-release symlink has not been restored, in case we boot with an empty /etc.

<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><command>systemd-nspawn</command> may be used to
|
||
run a command or OS in a light-weight namespace
|
||
container. In many ways it is similar to
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>chroot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
||
but more powerful since it fully virtualizes the file
|
||
system hierarchy, as well as the process tree, the
|
||
various IPC subsystems and the host and domain
|
||
name.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><command>systemd-nspawn</command> limits access
|
||
to various kernel interfaces in the container to
|
||
read-only, such as <filename>/sys</filename>,
|
||
<filename>/proc/sys</filename> or
|
||
<filename>/sys/fs/selinux</filename>. Network
|
||
interfaces and the system clock may not be changed
|
||
from within the container. Device nodes may not be
|
||
created. The host system cannot be rebooted and kernel
|
||
modules may not be loaded from within the
|
||
container.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that even though these security precautions
|
||
are taken <command>systemd-nspawn</command> is not
|
||
suitable for secure container setups. Many of the
|
||
security features may be circumvented and are hence
|
||
primarily useful to avoid accidental changes to the
|
||
host system from the container. The intended use of
|
||
this program is debugging and testing as well as
|
||
building of packages, distributions and software
|
||
involved with boot and systems management.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>In contrast to
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>chroot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> <command>systemd-nspawn</command>
|
||
may be used to boot full Linux-based operating systems
|
||
in a container.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Use a tool like
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>yum</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>debootstrap</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
||
or
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>pacman</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
to set up an OS directory tree suitable as file system
|
||
hierarchy for <command>systemd-nspawn</command>
|
||
containers.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that <command>systemd-nspawn</command> will
|
||
mount file systems private to the container to
|
||
<filename>/dev</filename>,
|
||
<filename>/run</filename> and similar. These will
|
||
not be visible outside of the container, and their
|
||
contents will be lost when the container exits.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that running two
|
||
<command>systemd-nspawn</command> containers from the
|
||
same directory tree will not make processes in them
|
||
see each other. The PID namespace separation of the
|
||
two containers is complete and the containers will
|
||
share very few runtime objects except for the
|
||
underlying file system. Use
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>machinectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
|
||
<command>login</command> command to request an
|
||
additional login prompt in a running container.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><command>systemd-nspawn</command> implements the
|
||
<ulink

||
url="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface">Container
|

|
||
|
||
<para>As a safety check
|
||
<command>systemd-nspawn</command> will verify the
|
||
existence of <filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename>
|
||
or <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> in the
|
||
container tree before starting the container (see
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>os-release</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>). It
|
||
might be necessary to add this file to the container
|
||
tree manually if the OS of the container is too old to

contain this file out-of-the-box.</para>
