Re: [yocto] Unclear sstate-cache dir permissions

[Zoran Stojsavljevic]

My best guess is that being user1 from the user-group, I would NOT want my
permissions to be 775, since any other user of this user-group would have
unrestricted RWX access to my private /home/user1 space. Rather 640 by
default.

And sharing cache among different users of the same group with the same
permissions 775 still, in my opinion, is not a good idea, since, as my best
understanding is, having different packages/releases, sstate-cache will be
superposition of these different packages/releases (humongous
sstate-cache)... In the sense, that any user can do whatever to shared
sstate-cache, and to harm other users (unintentionally).

Divide and conquer is better approach. Agree if the same user shares two
different releases with the same sstate-cache, as single user. Has only
control over, does not harm anyone else if something go awry.

Much more cleaner... Seems. IMHO.

Re: [yocto] Unclear sstate-cache dir permissions

[Burton, Ross]

I'm guessing one of the users has a different umask to the other, so is
writing directories with mode 755 instead of 775.

[yocto] Unclear sstate-cache dir permissions

[Marco]

Hello,
I am trying to share a sstate-cache between two (or more) users in a
shared directory.
Although I set the directory owner, group and permissions I face to a
weird condition that I don't understand.
Particularly why some directories don't have the group write
permisisons that drive me to a buld failure for mambers of the group.

I wonder if I am doing something wrong or I have an unexpected issue.


koan@kmobile:sstate-cache$ ll
totale 1028
drwxrwxr-x   2 koan devgroup 4096 set 14 15:32 00
drwxrwxr-x   2 koan devgroup 4096 set 14 14:37 01
...
drwxr-xr-x   2 koan devgroup 4096 set 14 15:31 1d
drwxrwxr-x   2 koan devgroup 4096 set 14 15:31 1e
...
drwxr-xr-x   2 koan devgroup 4096 set 14 15:32 27
drwxrwxr-x   2 koan devgroup 4096 set 14 15:32 28
...
etc...


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
