> filesystem/linux isolator does not set the permissions of the host_path
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-5187
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5187
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: isolation
> Affects Versions: 0.26.0
> Environment: Mesos 0.26.0, Apache Aurora 0.12
> Reporter: Stephan Erb
>
> The {{filesystem/linux}} isolator is not a drop in replacement for the
> {{filesystem/shared}} isolator. This should be considered before the latter
> is deprecated.
> We are currently using the {{filesystem/shared}} isolator together with the
> following slave option. This provides us with a private {{/tmp}} and
> {{/var/tmp}} folder for each task.
> {code}
> --default_container_info='{
> "type": "MESOS",
> "volumes": [
> {"host_path": "system/tmp", "container_path": "/tmp",
> "mode": "RW"},
> {"host_path": "system/vartmp", "container_path": "/var/tmp",
> "mode": "RW"}
> ]
> }'
> {code}
> When browsing the Mesos sandbox, one can see the following permissions:
> {code}
> mode nlink uid gid size mtime
> drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4 KB Apr 11 18:16 tmp
> drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4 KB Apr 11 18:15 vartmp
> {code}
> However, when running with the new {{filesystem/linux}} isolator, the
> permissions are different:
> {code}
> mode nlink uid gid size mtime
> drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4 KB Apr 12 10:34 tmp
> drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4 KB Apr 12 10:34 vartmp
> {code}
> This prevents user code (running as a non-root user) from writing to those
> folders, i.e. every write attempt fails with permission denied.
> *Context*:
> * We are using Apache Aurora. Aurora is running its custom executor as root
> but then switches to a non-privileged user before running the actual user
> code.
> * The follow code seems to have enabled our usecase in the existing
> {{filesystem/shared}} isolator:
