Unable to mount /var/run/podman.sock inside container

[dimon222]

Host machine has rootless setup, podman socket is created by this non-root user, and then mounted via -v /var/run,/podman.sock to new container. Now if I enter this container I can communicate with podman socket remotely just fine for all the basic stuff, but I can't create new container to mount it one more level down - Error: statfs /var/run/podman.sock Permission denied. How to grant permission to go "deeper"? SELinux is disabled, I already tried to run with --priviliged but it didn't help.

Closing, it's the misunderstanding on my side.
The volume mapping is always relative to source host that opens the socket, so it cannot refer to local path in current container - command is running remotely on the host that opens socket so that's where security implication comes.
