boxxy doesn't seem to be able to redirect unix sockets

[printfn]

I tried using boxxy to redirect a socket out of my home directory, but it doesn't look like this works. I tried both the "file" and "directory" modes but neither seemed to work.

Hi! You cannot currently redirect only a socket; this may be possible, but unfortunately due to my health I don't currently have the bandwidth to dig into it more. If you are interested in attempting implementing it yourself, the relevant code is:

boxxy/src/enclosure/fs.rs

Lines 38 to 87 in 4941c88

	pub fn bind_mount_ro(&self, src: &Path, target: &Path) -> Result<()> {
	debug!("bind mount {src:?} onto {target:?} as ro");
	// ro bindmount is a complicated procedure: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/128388
	// tldr: You first do a normal bindmount, then remount bind+ro
	self.bind_mount(src, target, MsFlags::MS_BIND)?;
	self.remount_ro(target)?;
	Ok(())
	}
	pub fn remount_ro(&self, target: &Path) -> Result<()> {
	debug!("remount {target:?} as ro");
	mount::<Path, Path, str, str>(
	None,
	target,
	Some(""),
	MsFlags::MS_REMOUNT | MsFlags::MS_BIND | MsFlags::MS_RDONLY,
	Some(""),
	)?;
	Ok(())
	}
	pub fn bind_mount_rw(&self, src: &Path, target: &Path) -> Result<()> {
	debug!("bind mount {src:?} onto {target:?} as rw");
	self.bind_mount(src, target, MsFlags::MS_BIND)
	}
	fn bind_mount(&self, src: &Path, target: &Path, flags: MsFlags) -> Result<()> {
	debug!("bind mount {src:?} onto {target:?}");
	// Ensure that `src` and `target` are the same type of file, erroring if they aren't
	if src.is_dir() && !target.is_dir() {
	return Err(eyre!(
	"Cannot bind mount a directory onto a file: {src:?} -> {target:?}"
	));
	}
	if src.is_file() && !target.is_file() {
	return Err(eyre!(
	"Cannot bind mount a file onto a directory: {src:?} -> {target:?}"
	));
	}
	mount(
	Some(src),
	target,
	Some(""),
	MsFlags::MS_REC | flags,
	Some(""),
	)?;
	Ok(())
	}

The manpage for mount(2) is unclear on whether or not this change is possible to implement from a quick read.
