Recreating the Docker anchor left the supervised Core and host stranded in the dead namespace while systemd still reported them active — serving nobody, invisible to any monitoring that trusts unit state. Reproduced on staging: netns 4026539938 -> 4026540033, both pids unchanged in the old one, both units "active", traffic ConnectionResetError. There is no systemd-native edge signal to bind to. Containers do appear as units, but the scope name embeds the container ID (docker-<id>.scope), which changes on every recreate, so BindsTo= has no stable target; NetworkNamespacePath= resolves once at start; a .path unit on /run/netns would watch the file this tooling maintains. So: a level-triggered reconcile on a 10s timer, comparing the namespace the services are ACTUALLY in against the anchor's CURRENT one, acting only on a real difference. That cannot miss an event while the watcher restarts or dockerd is down, and needs no debounce — a burst of three recreations produced exactly one rebind. The trigger stays separable: a docker-events unit could invoke the same script. Anchor absent stops the dependants rather than falling back to host networking; docker unavailable logs once and retries on the next tick. Two defects found while testing and fixed here: - mount --bind STACKS when the old mount is busy, silently leaking nsfs entries; the bind helper now drains stale mounts in a loop. - reconcile must stop -> rebind -> start, not rebind -> restart: a running service holds the old namespace open and makes the umount fail busy. Staging also gained a faithful anchor container so the reproduction is structural rather than mocked. Economy state was byte-identical across every lifecycle test. Production units are templates only and remain uninstalled.

# Publish a Docker container's network namespace into /run/netns so systemd
|
|
# units can enter it declaratively with NetworkNamespacePath=.
|
|
#
|
|
# WHY THIS EXISTS. Production Core and host must run inside the
|
|
# `openfut-fut-backend` container's netns: that is where the published client
|
|
# ports live and where the Python oracle answers on 127.0.0.1:8199. Today they
|
|
# get there with `nsenter --net=/proc/<pid>/ns/net`, where <pid> is typed by
|
|
# hand into a runbook.
|
|
#
|
|
# THE HAZARD THIS FIXES, MEASURED NOT ASSUMED. The container runs with
|
|
# `restart=unless-stopped`. On a container restart its netns inode CHANGES
|
|
# (observed 2026-08-22: net:[4026539938] -> net:[4026540033]). A hardcoded pid
|
|
# is then simply wrong, and — worse — any process already inside the old
|
|
# namespace keeps running in a namespace with no interfaces, silently serving
|
|
# nobody. Resolving by container NAME at every start removes the hardcoded pid;
|
|
# the companion watcher unit handles the already-running case by restarting the
|
|
# stack when the container restarts.
|
|
#
|
|
# Idempotent: a stale bind mount is unmounted and re-made, so re-running after a
|
|
# container restart is the fix, not a second problem.
|
|
#
|

# usage: openfut-netns-bind.sh <container-name> <netns-name>
