URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/285665

Log:
  MFC r285275 (only the part that fixes PR 199568):
  
  Obtain proper capsicum rights for dump files so rotation of such files works 
when requested.  This is equivalent to cherry picking the following upstream 
commits:
  
  commit c6d472bf63488b0c2ab7ab9f4b32c68dd2c8ea2b
  commit f08eb851eedf9775e6485ab75c0d8cf8d1306be6
  commit d83a284abc80d3d09f6bddd087760bb1b01d9cc7

+ * Ensure that, on a dump file's descriptor, we have all the rights
+ * necessary to make the standard I/O library work with an fdopen()ed
+ * FILE * from that descriptor.
+ *
+ * A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, AT&T decided that, instead
+ * of providing separate APIs for getting and setting the FD_ flags on a
+ * descriptor, getting and setting the O_ flags on a descriptor, and
+ * locking files, they'd throw them all into a kitchen-sink fcntl() call
+ * along the lines of ioctl(), the fact that ioctl() operations are
+ * largely specific to particular character devices but fcntl() operations
+ * are either generic to all descriptors or generic to all descriptors for
+ * regular files nonwithstanding.
+ *
+ * The Capsicum people decided that fine-grained control of descriptor
+ * operations was required, so that you need to grant permission for
+ * reading, writing, seeking, and fcntl-ing.  The latter, courtesy of
+ * AT&T's decision, means that "fcntl-ing" isn't a thing, but a motley
+ * collection of things, so there are *individual* fcntls for which
+ * permission needs to be granted.
+ *
+ * The FreeBSD standard I/O people implemented some optimizations that
+ * requires that the standard I/O routines be able to determine whether
+ * the descriptor for the FILE * is open append-only or not; as that
+ * descriptor could have come from an open() rather than an fopen(),
+ * that requires that it be able to do an F_GETFL fcntl() to read
+ * the O_ flags.
+ *
+ * Tcpdump uses ftell() to determine how much data has been written
+ * to a file in order to, when used with -C, determine when it's time
+ * to rotate capture files.  ftell() therefore needs to do an lseek()
+ * to find out the file offset and must, thanks to the aforementioned
+ * optimization, also know whether the descriptor is open append-only
+ * or not.
+ *
+ * The net result of all the above is that we need to grant CAP_SEEK,
+ * CAP_WRITE, and CAP_FCNTL with the CAP_FCNTL_GETFL subcapability.
+ *
+ * Perhaps this is the universe's way of saying that either
+ *
+ *     1) there needs to be an fopenat() call and a pcap_dump_openat() call
+ *        using it, so that Capsicum-capable tcpdump wouldn't need to do
+ *        an fdopen()
+ *
+ * or
+ *
+ *     2) there needs to be a cap_fdopen() call in the FreeBSD standard
+ *        I/O library that knows what rights are needed by the standard
+ *        I/O library, based on the open mode, and assigns them, perhaps
+ *        with an additional argument indicating, for example, whether
+ *        seeking should be allowed, so that tcpdump doesn't need to know
+ *        what the standard I/O library happens to require this week.
