Subject: [PATCH] Expand the error message when newuidmap / newgidmap do not
like the user/group ownership of their target process.
Currently the error is just:
newuidmap: Target [pid] is owned by a different user
With this patch it will be like:
newuidmap: Target [pid] is owned by a different user: uid:0 pw_uid:0 st_uid:0, gid:0 pw_gid:0 st_gid:99
Why is this useful? Well, in my case...
The grsecurity kernel-hardening patch includes an option to make parts
of /proc unreadable, such as /proc/pid/ dirs for processes not owned by
the current uid. This comes with an option to make /proc/pid/
directories readable by a specific gid; sysadmins and the like are then
put into that group so they can see a full 'ps'.
This means that the check in new[ug]idmap fails, as in the above quoted
error - /proc/[targetpid] is owned by root, but the group is 99 so that
users in group 99 can see the process.
Some Googling finds dozens of people hitting this problem, but not
*knowing* that they have hit this problem, because the errors and
circumstances are non-obvious.
Some graceful way of handling this and not failing, will be next ;) But
in the meantime it'd be nice to have new[ug]idmap emit a more useful
error, so that it's easier to troubleshoot.
Thanks!
