According to #3998 (comment), we can do the third step to reduce the chance of parsing /etc/passwd & /etc/group when start or exec to a container.
Because in
runtime-spec
(https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/v1.0.2/config.md#posix-platform-user),uid
,gid
, andadditionalGids
are all defined as a numeric field/array. It is no need to parse a numeric id from/etc/passwd
or/etc/group
, except$HOME
is empty or gid is not provided(Butruntime-spec
said gid is required).
