Hi Robert,

Thanks for the patch. I tested it and it worked ... partially.

Taking an existing image and then using `opkg install base-files.ipk` will
correctly set the permission to 0700.

However, when I rebuild the full image rootfs, /home/root still ends up with
the wrong permission. I suspect another recipe is modifying the permission.
Is there a way (ie. bitbake command) to find out which recipe is causing the
change?

I tried a fresh build, it works for me.


Thanks again,
Charles


I don't know what recipe is creating /home/root, but ${ROOT_HOME}

It is created by base-files

should probably be added to files/fs-perms.txt with the correct
permissions set.

Sounds good to me.

I think that it should be a bug, would you please try this patch?

(This is my first post to OE list, hopefully I am posting to the right

Background: During the process of trying to configure SSH keys for root
user
login via dropbear, we realized the permission for /home/root directory
is set
too loose for group and other members [1]. As a result, dropbears fails
when we
try to put the key under /home/root/.ssh

---------

In the image, /home/root directory is set to 0755:

     $ stat /home/root
        File: /home/root
        Size: 4096            Blocks: 8          IO Block: 4096
directory
     Device: b302h/45826d    Inode: 13268       Links: 4
     Access: (0755/drwxr-xr-x)  Uid: (    0/    root)   Gid: (    0/
root)
     Access: 2016-04-05 22:21:13.000000000
     Modify: 2016-04-05 22:08:57.000000000
     Change: 2016-04-05 22:08:57.000000000


After some debugging, we believe the permission (0755) is initialized in
base-files_3.0.14.bb <http://base-files_3.0.14.bb> (in line 35) [2].

A few questions:
1. I tried looking at the git log for the history, but wasn't able to
find any
background on why the permission was set this way. eg. on a desktop Linux
(Ubuntu), /root is set to 0700:

     $ sudo stat /root
        File: `/root'
        Size: 4096 Blocks: 8          IO Block: 4096   directory
     Device: 801h/2049dInode: 1441793     Links: 3
     Access: (0700/drwx------)  Uid: (    0/    root)   Gid: (    0/
root)
     Access: 2016-04-05 21:29:17.389725228 -0700
     Modify: 2016-03-22 17:11:54.912479000 -0700
     Change: 2016-03-22 17:11:54.912479000 -0700
       Birth: -


2. If we would like to override the directory permission for /home/root
in our
image, what is the best way to do it? I am not an expert with bitbake,
should I
be patching the base-files_3.0.14.bb <http://base-files_3.0.14.bb>? using
*_append? or I should be looking at some other recipe altogether?

Sorry for the long email. Thanks in advance.
Charles
