Description

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Create subuid and subgid:

Here is what /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid look like:

$ cat /etc/subuid
610:123000:65536
$ cat /etc/subgid
610:123000:65536
  1. Create daemon.json:
# cat /etc/docker/daemon.json
{
    "icc": false,
    "live-restore": true,
    "no-new-privileges": true,
    "userland-proxy": false,
    "userns-remap": "610"
}
  1. Restart docker

Describe the results you received:

Run systemctl restart docker and docker will crash.

Run journalctl -xe to see the error:
