struct statx in glibc header was introduced in glibc-2.28
(fd70af45528d59a00eb3190ef6706cb299488fcd), but at that time,
sys/stat.h conflicts with linux/stat.h. Since glibc-2.30
(5dad6ffbb2b76215cfcd38c3001778536ada8e8a), sys/stat.h includes
linux/stat.h if exists.
Since now our baseline of glibc is 2.31. Hence, we can drop workarounds
for struct statx by importing linux/stat.h from newer kernel (v6.14-rc4).
- Drop fstat() fallback path now that we assume fdinfo
is available
- Use at_flags_normalize_nofollow()
- Accept empty path the same way as NULL
- Accept fd being AT_FDCWD and filename being "."
Avoid showing the files on the ESP (i.e. a FAT formatted volume) as
executable by removing the execute permission from them.
IMO this makes the colored output of `ls` more sensible since the file
system will be mounted with `noexec` anyway.
Add a `fstype_can_fmask_dmask` function that checks if a file system
type can use the `fmask` and `dmask` mount options.
This replaces `fstype_can_umask` since it was only used in
`partition_pick_mount_options` which only cares about the file system
support for fmask & dmask now.
It somewhat reduces the coverage of the feature since there are more file
systems that support umask as opposed to those supporting dmask & dmask,
but it should not be much of an issue since fmask & dmask are supported
by vfat, exfat and ntfs3.
In the unlikely event that sandboxes block statx() but let
name_to_handle_at() through it's a good way to determine the root inode
of the namespace, since its parent inode will have the same FID and
mnt_id.
Newer kernels support a new flag for name_to_handle_at(): AT_HANDLE_FID.
This flag is supposed to return an identifier for an inode that we can
use for checking inode identity. It's supposed to be a replacement for
checking .st_ino which doesn't work anymore today because inode numbers
are no longer unique on file systems (not on overlayfs, and not on btrfs
for example). Hence, be a good citizen and add infrastructure to support
AT_HANDLE_FID. Unfortunately that doesn't work for old kernels, hence
add a fallback logic: if we can use the flag, use it. If we cannot use
name_to_handle_at() without it, which might give us a good ID too. But
of course tha tcan fail as well, which callers have to check.
And while we are at it, make it use ERRNO_IS_xyz() where appropriate.
And move it up a bit, so we can use in the whole of mountpoint-util.c
(which we want to later).
mount_option_supported() will call fsopen() which will probe the
kernel filesystem module. This means that we'll suddenly start
probing filesystem modules when running generators as those determine
which mount options to use. To prevent generators from loading kernel
filesystem modules as much as possible, let's always first check the
hardcoded list of filesystem which we know support a feature before
falling back to asking the kernel.
Previously, in path_is_root_at(), if statx() does not provide mount ID,
path_get_mnt_id_at() was called, but it also calls statx(). Let's avoid
the second trial.
strstrafter() is like strstr() but returns a pointer to the first
character *after* the found substring, not on the substring itself.
Quite often this is what we actually want.
Inspired by #27267 I think it makes sense to add a helper for this,
to avoid the potentially fragile manual pointer increment afterwards.
The overflow check was hosed in two ways: overflows in C are undefined,
hence gcc was free to just optimize the whole thing away. We need to
catch overflows before we run into them, not after.
It checked for an overflow against size_t, but the field we need to
write this in is unsigned. i.e. typically 32bit rather than 64bit. Hence
check for the right maximum.
(The whole check is paranoia anyway, the kernel really shouldn't return
values that would induce an overflow, but you never know, the syscall
turned out to be problematic in so many other ways, hence let's stick to
this.)
The concept of a "mount" is a local one, hence there's no point in going
to the network to retrieve mnt_id or STATX_ATTR_MOUNT_ROOT. Hence set
AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC so that the call will not go to the network ever, and
risk deadlocking on that.
Just some extra safety.
Chasing symlinks is a core function that's used in a lot of places
so it deservers a less verbose names so let's rename it to chase()
and chaseat().
We also slightly change the pattern used for the chaseat() helpers
so we get chase_and_openat() and similar.
-1 was used everywhere, but -EBADF or -EBADFD started being used in various
places. Let's make things consistent in the new style.
Note that there are two candidates:
EBADF 9 Bad file descriptor
EBADFD 77 File descriptor in bad state
Since we're initializating the fd, we're just assigning a value that means
"no fd yet", so it's just a bad file descriptor, and the first errno fits
better. If instead we had a valid file descriptor that became invalid because
of some operation or state change, the other errno would fit better.
In some places, initialization is dropped if unnecessary.
