Bug ID: 282575
Summary: linux jail: setting S_ISGID on directory should be
ignored
Product: Base System
Version: 13.4-STABLE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: kern

Running an installer of a large software (Intel Modelsim), it tries to set the
S_ISGID on many of the directories it is going to install. On Linux, this bit
causes BSD semantics for files created within such a directory (i.e. the group
is inherited from the directory rather than from the process creating it).
Currently, attempting to set S_ISGID from within a (Linux?) jail causes an
EPERM. As the desired behaviour (inherit group membership for new files) is the
BSD behaviour anyway, it makes most sense to simply ignore this bit from within
a jail, rather than triggering an error.
