Otherwise this would create the following output:
rc-status -f ini
* Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ]
[default]
dbus = started
NetworkManager = started
syslog-ng = started
...
This fixes#364.
I found the original note a little confusing, since using rc-update will
add it to a runlevel so it *is* auto-started when the system reaches
that runlevel again, but I don't think that was the intended meaning of
'auto-start', so hopefully this makes it a little more clear.
Currently when osclock is enabled as a init.d service the following
messages appear during boot when osclock starts:
* The command variable is undefined.
* There is nothing for osclock to start.
* If this is what you intend, please write a start function.
* This will become a failure in a future release.
osclock is activated whenever a machine's system clock is automatically
configured from a RTC by the kernel and the osclock's only purpose is to
satisfy the "clock" dependency defined by other init.d services.
Adding a stub start() function prevents OpenRC from showing warnings but
continues to ensure that the osclock service still does not actually do
anything.
This fixes#377.
The do_check() function recently gained some defenses against symlink
replacement attacks that involve the use of *at functions in place of
their vanilla counterparts; openat() instead of open(), for example.
One opportunity to replace mkdir() with mkdirat() was missed, however,
and this commit replaces it.
This fixes#386.
start-stop-daemon and supervise-daemon parse usernames and group names
passed via the --user argument as numeric UID/GID if they start with a
number (e.g. user "4foo" will be treated as UID 4). This results in the
process that is being started to run under a totally unexpected user if
that UID exists.
Even though the result of the sscanf calls are tested for a result of
exactly 1, which means exactly one value was extracted, because sscanf's
format string only contains only one placeholder, it will never return
a value greater than 1, even if there are still characters left to be
parsed. This causes start-stop-daemon and supervise-daemon to assume
that usernames starting with a number are just that number. Adding a
second placeholder "%1s" to the format string, which matches a string of
length 1, makes sure that sscanf can distinguish between pure numbers
(in which case it will return 1) and strings either starting with a
number (in which case it will return 2) and any other string (in which
case it will return 0).
This fixes#379.
This fixes#380.

This walks the directory path to the file we are going to manipulate to make
sure that when we create the file and change the ownership and permissions
we are working on the same file.
Also, all non-terminal symbolic links must be owned by root. This will
keep a non-root user from making a symbolic link as described in the
bug. If root creates the symbolic link, it is assumed to be trusted.
On non-linux platforms, we no longer follow non-terminal symbolic links
by default. If you need to do that, add the -s option on the checkpath
command line, but keep in mind that this is not secure.
This fixes#201.
When executable is provided just by name (and therefore searched in a
path), exec_file is reset to NULL every time. exists() handles it being
NULL just fine, but dereferencing it in eerror does not work.

It looks like some stray text was left at the bottom of the file:
```

migrating your system to openrc-init.
```
There's a subsection on migrating a system to `openrc-ini`; perhaps this was
an embryonic section title?
This fixes#347.
prior to cgroups getting mounted, /sys/fs/cgroup will still exist,
but attempts to make directories in it will fail, change cgroup2_set_limits() to
verify that cgroups are mounted instead of just checking that /sys/fs/cgroup
exists.
This fixes#307.
This fixes#321.
This allows openrc to direct sysvinit to shut down the system by setting
the INIT_HALT environment variable appropriately. Also, we do not try to
communicate with sysvinit if its fifo does not exist.
I am removing this on the advice of a member of the Gentoo toolchain
team. It was explained to me that this doesn't offer any significant
benefits to OpenRC.
If anyone ffeels differently, please open a pull request reverting
this and adding an explanation of what it does and how to know which
functions to mark hidden in the future.
This fixes#301.
The do_openrc() function was not waiting properly for the child process
which started the runlevel to return. We need to repeatedly call
waitpid() until its return value matches the pid of the child process or
the child process does not exist.
This fixes#216.
This fixes#300.
