Description Paulo da Silva 2013-11-30 02:50:22 UTC
emerge fails when /var/tmp is empty. Perhaps because /var/tmp/ccache does not exist.
Insisting a 2nd. time works fine.

Example:
>>> Emerging (1 of 1) games-simulation/micropolis-1.0
 * Adjusting permissions for FEATURES=userpriv: '/var/tmp/.distcc'
 * Adjusting permissions for FEATURES=userpriv: '/var/tmp/.distcc/lock'

Comment 1 David Heidelberg (okias) 2014-01-12 21:49:49 UTC
I can confirm behaviour, only way to fix it is manually.

chown portage:portage /var/tmp/ccache/ -R
Comment 2 abandoned account 2015-02-12 16:40:19 UTC
I can confirm behaviour too.
When using ebuild command(but not when using emerge command).
It works without userpriv, but not with both  ccache userpriv  FEATURES 

this fails:
# time ebuild /usr/portage/sys-boot/grub/grub-9999-r1.ebuild compile
 * Adjusting permissions for FEATURES=userpriv: '/var/tmp/ccache'

basically because ccache isn't allowed to create directory eg. /var/tmp/ccache/5/8
...
drwxrwsr-x 18 portage portage 400 Feb 12 17:00 4
drwxrwsr-x  2 root    portage  60 Feb 12 17:02 5
drwxrwsr-x 15 portage portage 340 Feb 12 17:00 6
...

eg.
ccache: error: Failed to create directory /var/tmp/ccache/f/f: Permission denied
ccache: error: Failed to create directory /var/tmp/ccache/f/c: Permission denied

this works:
# time FEATURES="-userpriv" ebuild /usr/portage/sys-boot/grub/grub-9999-r1.ebuild compile 
 * Adjusting permissions for FEATURES=ccache: '/var/tmp/ccache'

Looks like adjusting permissions for userpriv takes precedence over ccache when both are enabled. 


With emerge(with userpriv and ccache enabled) this issue doesn't happen(for unknown reasons) and thus it works even though the permissions message looks the same:
# time emerge -av \>=sys-boot/grub-9999
...
>>> Emerging (1 of 1) sys-boot/grub-9999-r1::gentoo

Comment 3 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2015-02-12 17:27:19 UTC
You should be able to solve this by using a CCACHE_UMASK="0002" setting. We should update the documentation to suggest this.

It's not feasible for portage to adjust the permissions itself, because that would cause performance issues.

Confirmed, that solved it. Thank you Zac.

 Does the fact that root is owner on some ccache subfolders  suggest that ccache is ran as root at some point(s) ? (or maybe it's just due to fakeroot or similar?) Hopefuly it's not a security issue. In other words, is using CCACHE_UMASK just a workaround?
 Note that I rm -rf /var/tmp/ccache ; rm -rf /var/tmp/portage/sys-boot/grub-9999-r1  before running the above ebuild command.

It definitely ran as root. With FEATURES=userpriv, some phases (such as pkg_setup) still run as root, so it looks like one of these other phases called the compiler.

Well, you can't stop the compiler from being called during phases that run as root. Therefore, CCACHE_UMASK seems like the simplest solution. I doubt that ccache has any other built-in means to accomplish what you need. It should not be a security issue, as long as you don't grant "portage" group access to untrusted users.
Comment 6 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2015-02-15 10:18:23 UTC
Could this be handled finally? (It's still valid :))
Comment 7 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2015-02-16 20:22:43 UTC
I suppose we could make FEATURES="ccache userpriv" set CCACHE_UMASK automatically if it's not already set.

Looks like it's not being set indeed as we still need to remember to run chown to unbreak it :/

The file and folder was created while emerging portage-9999.

I will try next with the CCACHE_UMASK thing.
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Ccache says to set umask = 002 in ccache/ccache.conf but also says it is since portage-2.3.79 optional.
Is it the same as adding CCACHE_UMASK="0002" in make.conf?
Comment 11 jospezial 2020-10-22 01:12:07 UTC
After adding CCACHE_UMASK="0002" in make.conf and deleting /var/tmp/ccache/ it looks different now  but still a bit inconsistent. Seems to work with emerge.

Comment 12 Enne Eziarc 2022-06-21 03:35:14 UTC
It's 2022 and this still happens! Here's a workaround by pre-creating ccache's directory structure ahead of time (assuming default cache_dir_levels):

(
cd /var/tmp/ccache
chmod -R portage:portage .
chown g+s .
digits="0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f"
for d1 in $digits; do
 for d2 in $digits; do
  install --owner portage --group portage --directory ./$d1/$d2
 done
done
)

p.s. is there a bug for FEATURES=userpriv being useless security theatre? This ought to depend on that one.

I think the commands were swapped with each other by mistake.  It should rather be:

chown -R portage:portage .
chmod g+s .
