This issue wasn't present in 4.4.0-47 and has probably been introduced by https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1634964 Step to reproduce: $ unshare -r -U -m /bin/bash # mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt # echo $$ 2354 In another terminal: $ sudo nsenter -t 2354 -m # touch /mnt/foo touch: cannot touch '/mnt/foo': Value too large for defined data type Note that we are not joining the user namespace when creating the file but we would expect `touch' to succeed and create the file with an inode set to INVALID_UID/GID (i.e. nobody:nogroup) within the mount namespace.
