ISO C does not allow empty statements outside of functions, and gcc
will warn the trailing semicolons when compiling with -pedantic:
warning: ISO C does not allow extra ‘;’ outside of a function [-Wpedantic]
But our code cannot compile with -pedantic anyway, at least because
warning: ISO C does not support ‘__PRETTY_FUNCTION__’ predefined identifier [-Wpedantic]
Without -pedatnic, clang and even old gcc (3.4) generate no warnings about
those semicolons, so let's just drop __useless_struct_to_allow_trailing_semicolon__.
Otherwise we can be fooled if one path component is replaced underneath us.
The patch achieves that by always operating at file descriptor level (by using
*at() helpers) and by making sure we do not any path resolution when traversing
direcotry trees.
However this is not always possible, for instance when listing the content of a
directory or some operations don't provide the *at() helpers or others (such as
fchmodat()) don't have the AT_EMPTY_PATH flag. In such cases we operate on
/proc/self/fd/%i pseudo-symlink instead, which works the same for all kinds of
objects and requires no checking of type beforehand.
Also O_PATH flag is used when opening file objects in order to prevent
undesired behaviors: device nodes from reacting, automounts from
triggering, etc...
Fixes: #7986
Fixes: CVE-2018-6954
Using C.UTF-8 (as was done before #7244) breaks Arch Linux, but using
en_US.UTF-8 (after #7244) breaks Debian in our .mkosi/mkosi.debian.
So try to detect which one is available and works, first checking
whether we're already running under a valid UTF-8 locale, then trying
C.UTF-8 and finally en_US.UTF-8.
If we fail to find a valid UTF-8 locale, then fail early, instead of
letting the whole build complete only for Mesos to fail midway through
the `ninja test` step.
Tested on all of mkosi.fedora, mkosi.debian and mkosi.arch.
Fixes: #7238
The unit files for test-execute are named like
`exec-(setting-name-in-lower-character)-(optional-text).service`.
However, test units for AmbientCapabilities= are not following this.
So, let's rename them for the consistency.
This does not change anything in the functionality of the test.
$ git grep FDNAME
logind-session-device.c: ... "FDNAME=session-", sd->session->id);
logind-session-device.c: ... "FDNAME=session", sd->session->id);
Oops.
Fixes#8343. Or at least a more minimal reproducer. Xorg still
dies when logind is restarted, but the Xorg message says this
is entirely deliberate.
(This could also be the reason I hit #8035, instead of the race
condition I originally suggested).
This PR implements the first part of RFE #8046. I.e. this allows to
write:
```
u username -:300
```
Where the uid is chosen automatically but the gid is fixed.
