| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a seriously beefed up chroot kind of thing. The process is jailed along the same lines as a chroot does it, but with additional tough restrictions imposed on what the superuser can do. For all I know, it is safe to hand over the root bit inside a prison to the customer living in that prison, this is what it was developed for in fact: "real virtual servers". Each prison has an ip number associated with it, which all IP communications will be coerced to use and each prison has its own hostname. Needless to say, you need more RAM this way, but the advantage is that each customer can run their own particular version of apache and not stomp on the toes of their neighbors. It generally does what one would expect, but setting up a jail still takes a little knowledge. A few notes: I have no scripts for setting up a jail, don't ask me for them. The IP number should be an alias on one of the interfaces. mount a /proc in each jail, it will make ps more useable. /proc/<pid>/status tells the hostname of the prison for jailed processes. Quotas are only sensible if you have a mountpoint per prison. There are no privisions for stopping resource-hogging. Some "#ifdef INET" and similar may be missing (send patches!) If somebody wants to take it from here and develop it into more of a "virtual machine" they should be most welcome! Tools, comments, patches & documentation most welcome. Have fun...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike other filesystem objects, symbolic links do not have an owner, group, access mode, times, etc. Instead, these attributes are taken from the directory that contains the link. The only attributes returned from an lstat() that refer to the symbolic link itself are the file type (S_IFLNK), size, blocks, and link count (always 1). This is bogus, and disagrees with the implementation and symlink(7). Removed it. PR: docs/10269 Submitted by: Tolik <tolik@sibptus.tomsk.ru>

* Remove last remaining references to malloc/realloc and functions thatpeter1999-03-231-50/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | call them. All the execX() libc functions should be vfork() safe now. Specifically: - execlp() does the argument count-and-build into a vector from alloca (like the others) - buildargv() is no longer used (and gone). - execvp() uses alloca/strcpy rather than strdup(). - the ENOEXEC handler uses alloca rather than malloc. - a couple of free() calls removed - alloca works on the local stack and the allocations are freed on function exit (which is why buildargv wasn't useful - it's alloca() context would disappear on return). Along the way: - If alloca() fails (can it?), set errno = ENOMEM explicitly. - The ENOEXEC recovery routine that trys again with /bin/sh appeared to not be terminating the new argv[] array for /bin/sh, allowing it to walk off the end of the list. I dithered a bit about using alloca() even more as it's most commonly associated with gcc. However, standalone portable (using malloc) and machine-specific assembler alloca implementations appear to be available on just about all the architectures we're likely to want to port to. alloca will be the least of our problems if ever going to another compiler.
