RUN_WITH_UMASK was initially conceived for spawning externals progs with the
umask set. But nowadays we use it various syscalls and stuff that doesn't "run"
anything, so the "RUN_" prefix has outlived its usefulness.
- add missing assertions,
- use size_t for buffser size or memory index,
- handle empty input more gracefully,
- return the length or the result string,
- fix off-by-one issue when the prefix is already long enough.
Let's allow using this in code shared between userspace and EFI mode.
Also, don't implement these functions via endianness conversions given
we don't actually want to convert endianess here.
When the user starts a program which elevates its permissions via setuid,
setgid, or capabilities set on the file, it may access additional information
which would then be visible in the coredump. We shouldn't make the the coredump
visible to the user in such cases.

This reads the /proc/<pid>/auxv file and attaches it to the process metadata as
PROC_AUXV. Before the coredump is submitted, it is parsed and if either
at_secure was set (which the kernel will do for processes that are setuid,
setgid, or setcap), or if the effective uid/gid don't match uid/gid, the file
is not made accessible to the user. If we can't access this data, we assume the
file should not be made accessible either. In principle we could also access
the auxv data from a note in the core file, but that is much more complex and
it seems better to use the stand-alone file that is provided by the kernel.
Attaching auxv is both convient for this patch (because this way it's passed
between the stages along with other fields), but I think it makes sense to save
it in general.
We use the information early in the core file to figure out if the program was
32-bit or 64-bit and its endianness. This way we don't need heuristics to guess
whether the format of the auxv structure. This test might reject some cases on
fringe architecutes. But the impact would be limited: we just won't grant the
user permissions to view the coredump file. If people report that we're missing
some cases, we can always enhance this to support more architectures.
I tested auxv parsing on amd64, 32-bit program on amd64, arm64, arm32, and
ppc64el, but not the whole coredump handling.
Previously, chase_symlinks() always returned an absolute path, which
changed after 5bc244aaa9. This commit
fixes chase_symlinks() so it returns absolute paths all the time again.
reset_terminal_fd sets certain minimum required terminal attributes
that systemd relies on.
One of those attributes is `ONLCR` which ensures that when a new line
is sent to the terminal, that the cursor not only moves to the next
line, but also moves to the very beginning of that line.
In order for `ONLCR` to work, the terminal needs to perform output
post-processing. That requires an additional attribute, `OPOST`,
which reset_terminal_fd currently fails to ensure is set.
In most cases `OPOST` (and `ONLCR` actually) are both set anyway, so
it's not an issue, but it could be a problem if, e.g., the terminal was
put in raw mode by a program and the program unexpectedly died before
restoring settings.
This commit ensures when `ONLCR` is set `OPOST` is set too, which is
the only thing that really makes sense to do.
This is a wrapper around fd_reopen() that will reopen an fd if the
F_GETFL flags indicate this is necessary, and otherwise not.
This is useful for various utility calls that shall be able to operate
on O_PATH and without it, and might need to convert between the two
depending on what's passed in.
This reenables epoll_pwait2() use, i.e. undoes the effect of
39f756d3ae.
Instead of just reverting that, this PR will change things so that we
strictly rely on glibc's new epoll_pwait2() wrapper (which was added
earlier this year), and drop our own manual fallback syscall wrapper.
That should nicely side-step any issues with correct syscall wrapping
definitions (which on some arch seem not to be easy, given the sigset_t
size final argument), by making this a glibc problem, not ours.
Given that the only benefit this delivers are time-outs more granular
than msec, it shouldn't really matter that we'll miss out on support
for this on systems with older glibcs.
The compiler should recognize that these are constant expressions, but
let's better make this explicit, so that the linker can safely share the
initializations all over the place.
The second argument to _printf_() specifies where the arguments start. We need to
use 0 in two cases: when the args in a va_list and can't be checked, and with journald
logging functions which accept multiple format strings with multiple argument sets,
which the _printf_ checker does not understand. But strv_extendf() can be checked.
Instead of having fopen_temporary() create the file either next
to an existing file or in tmp/, let's split this up clearly into
two different functions, one for creating temporary files next to
existing files, and one for creating a temporary file in a directory.
