[Touch-packages] [Bug 1902109] Re: rsync uses lchmod and fails in Ubuntu >= 20.10 if /proc isn't mounted

2021-03-19 Thread Aaron Meyer
Actually, as far as I can tell this failure affects a much wider set of
cases. I am seeing this on a standard install as long as the (default)
"use chroot" option is being used.

  Rsync in Ubuntu 20.10 fails when /proc isn't mounted, while it worked before.
  This happens because AC_CHECK_FUNC(lchmod) returns "yes" in 20.10, while it 
returned "no" before.

  Steps to reproduce:

  # Emulate /proc not being mounted
  $ mount --bind / /mnt
  $ chroot /mnt rsync -a /bin/ls .
  rsync: [receiver] failed to set permissions on "/.ls.CDExhu": Operation not 
supported (95)
  rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) 
(code 3) at main.c(1330) [sender=3.2.3]

  I reported this issue upstream in
  https://github.com/WayneD/rsync/issues/109 but the rsync developer
  says it's a problem in libc, and it might well be.

  Simple C code to reproduce the problem without rsync:

  printf("lchmod returned: %d\n", lchmod("/tmp/ls", 0755));

  If /tmp/ls is e.g. mode=0123, and needs to be changed, lchmod fails
  when /proc isn't mounted, yet it succeeds if it is mounted.

  Python had a similar issue, and they ended up avoiding
  AC_CHECK_FUNC(lchmod) under Linux:

  https://bugs.python.org/issue34652
  
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/69e96910153219b0b15a18323b917bd74336d229#diff-49473dca262eeab3b4a43002adb08b4db31020d190caaad1594b47f1d5daa810R3140

  ```c
  if test "$MACHDEP" != linux; then
AC_CHECK_FUNC(lchmod)
  fi
  ```

  So I'm not sure which package is causing the bug here. Should autoconf
  return false? Should libc implement lchown without the bug? Or should
  rsync skip lchmod under Linux, like python did?

2020-12-09 Thread Alkis Georgopoulos
Since this was fixed upstream and it doesn't affect any LTS Ubuntu
releases, I don't think it's important enough to do SRUs. Thank you!

(For LTSP users, that are affected by this: once a fixed rsync version
lands in Ubuntu, I'll copy it to the LTSP PPA for Groovy, so LTSP will
work there too)

If someone feels that it is still important to fix it Groovy, too,
please prepare the fix for 21.04 and follow the SRU procedure with or
without sponsorship request:

2020-12-08 Thread Balint Reczey
IMO both the new and old errors were accurate and this is just a behaviour 
change in glibc rather than a regression.
Rsync upstream already adapted to the new glibc behaviour and unless glibc 
upstream reverts the change this will stay the glibc behaviour in Ubuntu, too.

typically mounted.

supported (95)
  rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) 
(code 3) at main.c(1330) [sender=3.2.3]

  I reported this issue upstream in
  https://github.com/WayneD/rsync/issues/109 but the rsync developer
  says it's a problem in libc, and it might well be.

  Simple C code to reproduce the problem without rsync:

  printf("lchmod returned: %d\n", lchmod("/tmp/ls", 0755));

  If /tmp/ls is e.g. mode=0123, and needs to be changed, lchmod fails
  when /proc isn't mounted, yet it succeeds if it is mounted.

  Python had a similar issue, and they ended up avoiding
  AC_CHECK_FUNC(lchmod) under Linux:

  https://bugs.python.org/issue34652
  
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/69e96910153219b0b15a18323b917bd74336d229#diff-49473dca262eeab3b4a43002adb08b4db31020d190caaad1594b47f1d5daa810R3140

  ```c
  if test "$MACHDEP" != linux; then
AC_CHECK_FUNC(lchmod)
  fi
  ```

  So I'm not sure which package is causing the bug here. Should autoconf
  return false? Should libc implement lchown without the bug? Or should
  rsync skip lchmod under Linux, like python did?

Fixes for https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14578
introduced regressions in cases when /proc is not mounted:
- lchmod used to return ENOSYS, now it returns EOPNOTSUPP;
- fchmodat(AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) used to return ENOTSUP, now it returns 
EOPNOTSUPP which is different from ENOTSUP on some architectures, e.g. hppa.

  Rsync in Ubuntu 20.10 fails when /proc isn't mounted, while it worked before.
  This happens because AC_CHECK_FUNC(lchmod) returns "yes" in 20.10, while it 
returned "no" before.

  Steps to reproduce:

  # Emulate /proc not being mounted
  $ mount --bind / /mnt
  $ chroot /mnt rsync -a /bin/ls .
  rsync: [receiver] failed to set permissions on "/.ls.CDExhu": Operation not
