Hi,
I know this is definitely not on the list of things regularly tested but I
have a scenario where I'm running trying to run an unprivileged LXC
container inside a docker container. The docker container is privileged and
I would like the LXC container to be unprivileged.
I have setup /etc/subuid,/etc/subgid in the both the host and the docker
container.
Currently lxc-start fails with: lxc_conf - conf.c:lxc_setup_rootfs:1323 -
Failed to mount rootfs "/data/vm/mount/bind/rootdir" onto
"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc" with options "(null)" (lxc-3.0).

I don't understand why it is failing the mount, using strace I can see:
565   access("/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc", F_OK) = 0
565   stat("/data/rootdir", 0x7ffcd1c5a7f0) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

Where data/rootdir is my rootdir for the container and it's contents are
with the subuid/subgid I allocated.

Longer quote from log:

Any clues where to look?
