Description Brant Gurganus 2010-11-27 06:14:19 UTC
The test-mkdirat test in sys-apps/findutils-4.5.9 fails with sandbox enabled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use sandbox-2.4 as baseline. Apply the patches from git commit 2c90a2dd2d5be3ca593a7bcd8d79e6d0db296204 and 6103135b011da15bf85cbafa8ec069cf5b74ed4b.
2. Merge patched sandbox.
3. Merge findutils-4.5.9
Actual Results:  
test-mkdir.h:40: assertion failed
/bin/sh: line 5: 23530 Aborted                 EXEEXT='' srcdir='.' LOCALE_FR='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_FR='none' LOCALE_TR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_FR='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_JA='none' LOCALE_ZH_CN='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_TR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_ZH_CN='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_FR='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_JA='none' LOCALE_ZH_CN='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_ZH_CN='none' LOCALE_FR='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_FR='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' PATH='/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/findutils-4.5.9/work/findutils-4.5.9/build-aux':"$PATH" PATH='/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/findutils-4.5.9/work/findutils-4.5.9/build-aux':"$PATH" LOCALE_FR='none' LOCALE_FR_UTF8='none' LOCALE_JA='none' LOCALE_ZH_CN='none' ${dir}$tst
FAIL: test-mkdirat

Expected Results:  
Tests pass.

Tests will pass with FEATURES="-sandbox -usersandbox" added to command line.

I also reproduced this with the stock sandbox-2.4 as well.

This seems somewhat related to gentoo bug 297026.

The specific assertion failing is:
ASSERT (errno == ENOENT);
which happens right after:
ASSERT (func ("", 0700) == -1);

specialcase empty pathname in mkdirat

This is related to, but not the same as, bug 297026.

Apparently calling mkdirat with an empty pathname needs to fail with ENOENT. At least that is what is tested here, and http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/mkdir.html mentions it (I have no idea which specifications I should check to confirm this).

This case is special: if /foo/bar is an existing directory then (pseudocode) mkdirat("/foo/", "bar/") needs to fail with EEXIST, while mkdirat("/foo/bar/", "") needs to fail with ENOENT. So sandbox really just needs to specialcase the pathname being empty.

This patch does that for just mkdirat, but if the opengroup site is to be believed other *at functions have the same feature (see http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/futimens.html ). I've not made this change as I do not know which specifications should be followed.
Comment 6 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-12-25 00:51:27 UTC
(In reply to comment #5)

i think the issue is that pathname is specially checked for "" before any dirfd checks get processed.  so if you have both pathname=="" and dirfd==BADFD, then the first one gets processed before the 2nd gets a chance to run.  the current sandbox code has those inverted.

i've unified the pre-at checks so this covers unlinkat & openat & mkdirat
