Addison Higham updated HADOOP-15096:
------------------------------------
Description:
start-build-env.sh has the potential to build an image that can fill up root
disks by exploding a sparse file.
In my case, the right ingredients are:
Ubuntu 17.04
Docker 17.09.0
AUFS storage driver
userId and groupid with a high number
This happens when building the hadoop-build-${USER_ID} image, specifically in
the
{code:bash}
RUN useradd -g ${GROUP_ID} -u ${USER_ID} -k /root -m ${USER_NAME}
{code}
command.
The reason for this:
/var/log/lastlog is a sparse file that pre-reserves based on highest seen UID
and GID, in my case, those numbers are very high (above 1 billion). Locally,
this result in a sparse file that reports as 443 GB. However, under docker and
specifically AUFS, it appears that his file *isn't* sparse and it tries to
allocate the whole file.
If you start this script and walk away to wait for it to finish, you come back
to a computer with a completely full disk.
Luckily, the fix is quite easy, simply add the `-l` option to useradd which
won't create those files
