Subject: [PATCH 1/1] teamd: better handle failures to chown(TEAMD_RUN_DIR)
|
|
during teamd_drop_privileges()
|
|
|
|
NetworkManager is exec-ing teamd while running without CAP_CHOWN.
|
|
|
|
When teamd is configured to drop privileges, then it will call chown
|
|
while still running as root user. But the command will fail because of
|
|
lack of CAP_CHOWN.
|
|
|
|
Note that chown() succeeds if the calling process has CAP_CHOWN or if
|
|
the file already is owned by the calling user/group (whereas, changing
|
|
the group will still work, if the user is a member of that group).
|
|
|
|
The directory might have already been prepared with the right user/group.
|
|
Let's handle that. If the first chown() as root succeeds, we are good.
|
|
If it fails, we will retry after changing the user id. If the directory
|
|
already has the right/compatible user, this command will succeeds too
|
|
and teamd can proceed.
|
|
