    <para>
      The <command>newuidmap</command> sets <filename>/proc/[pid]/uid_map</filename> based on its
      command line arguments and the uids allowed in <filename>/etc/subuid</filename>.
      Note that the root user is not exempted from the requirement for a valid
      <filename>/etc/subuid</filename> entry.
    </para>

    <para>
      After the pid argument, <command>newuidmap</command> expects sets of 3 integers:
      <variablelist>
	<varlistentry>
	  <term>uid</term>
	  <listitem>
	    <para>
	      Beginning of the range of UIDs inside the user namespace.

    <para>
      <command>newuidmap</command> verifies that the caller is the owner
      of the process indicated by <option>pid</option> and that for each
      of the above sets, each of the UIDs in the range [loweruid,
      loweruid+count] is allowed to the caller according to
      <filename>/etc/subuid</filename> before setting
      <filename>/proc/[pid]/uid_map</filename>.
