Hi Sharyathi,

This is the forwarded mail containing the patch for chmod05 in new LTP
provided by Wei Yongjun <[email protected]>.
Is this the functionality you are also looking for and trying to fix?

Thanks
Muni

Refer to the manpage:

  # man 2 chmod
  If the calling process is not privileged (Linux: does not have the
  CAP_FSETID capability), and the group of the file does not match
  the effective group ID of the process or one of its supplementary
  group IDs, the S_ISGID bit will be turned off, but this will not
  cause an error to be returned.

So, if we want S_ISGID bit be turned off after chmod(), we can not have
the CAP_FSETID capability and not match the effective group ID. The 'bin'
group always has the CAP_FSETID capability, so we can not change the own
of the TESTDIR to 'bin' group, instead, 'nobody' can be used.

This patch fixed the problem by change gid of chown to 'nobody' group and
change the gid of setegid() to 'bin' group.
