new switch added to useradd command, --btrfs-subvolume-home. When
specified *and* the filesystem is detected as btrfs, it will create a
subvolume for user's home instead of a plain directory. This is done via
`btrfs subvolume` command. Specifying the new switch while trying to
create home on non-btrfs will result in an error.
userdel -r will handle and remove this subvolume transparently via
`btrfs subvolume` command. Previosuly this failed as you can't rmdir a
subvolume.
usermod, when moving user's home across devices, will detect if the home
is a subvolume and issue an error messages instead of copying it. Moving
user's home (as subvolume) on same btrfs works transparently.
As the lockfiles have PID in the name, there can be no conflict
in the name with other process, so there is no point in using
O_EXCL and it only can fail if there is a stale lockfile from
previous execution that crashed for some reason.
The implementation of prefix option dropped the use of lckpwdf().
However that is incorrect as other tools manipulating the shadow passwords
such as PAM use lckpwdf() and do not know anything about the
shadow's own locking mechanism.
This reverts the implementation to use lckpwdf() if prefix option
is not used.
As the large uids are usually provided by remote user identity and
authentication service, which also provide user login tracking,
there is no need to create a huge sparse file for them on every local
machine.
fixup! login.defs: Add LASTLOG_UID_MAX variable to limit lastlog to small uids.
Some distributions, notably Fedora, have the following order of nsswitch
modules by default:
passwd: sss files
group: sss files
The advantage of serving local users through SSSD is that the nss_sss
module has a fast mmapped-cache that speeds up NSS lookups compared to
accessing the disk an opening the files on each NSS request.
Traditionally, this has been done with the help of nscd, but using nscd
in parallel with sssd is cumbersome, as both SSSD and nscd use their own
independent caching, so using nscd in setups where sssd is also serving
users from some remote domain (LDAP, AD, ...) can result in a bit of
unpredictability.
More details about why Fedora chose to use sss before files can be found
on e.g.:
https://fedoraproject.org//wiki/Changes/SSSDCacheForLocalUsers
or:
https://docs.pagure.org/SSSD.sssd/design_pages/files_provider.html
Now, even though sssd watches the passwd and group files with the help
of inotify, there can still be a small window where someone requests a
user or a group, finds that it doesn't exist, adds the entry and checks
again. Without some support in shadow-utils that would explicitly drop
the sssd caches, the inotify watch can fire a little late, so a
combination of commands like this:
getent passwd user || useradd user; getent passwd user
can result in the second getent passwd not finding the newly added user
as the racy behaviour might still return the cached negative hit from
the first getent passwd.
This patch more or less copies the already existing support that
shadow-utils had for dropping nscd caches, except using the "sss_cache"
tool that sssd ships.
This allows shadow-utils to build on systems like Adélie, which have no
<utmp.h> header or `struct utmp`. We use a <utmpx.h>-based daemon,
utmps[1], which uses `struct utmpx` only.
Tested both `login` and `logoutd` with utmps and both work correctly.

The third field in the /etc/shadow file (sp_lstchg) contains the date of
the last password change expressed as the number of days since Jan 1, 1970.
As this is a relative time, creating a user today will result in:
username:17238:0:99999:7:::
whilst creating the same user tomorrow will result in:
username:17239:0:99999:7:::
This has an impact for the Reproducible Builds[0] project where we aim to
be independent of as many elements the build environment as possible,
including the current date.
This patch changes the behaviour to use the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH[1]
environment variable (instead of Jan 1, 1970) if valid.

shadowio.c:131:6: warning: implicit declaration of function 'getdef_bool' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
The functions __gr_dup and __pw_dup do not explicitly zero the
memory which hold the passwords after free. The gr_free and pw_free
functions do this explicitly.
To guarantee same behaviour, it's possible to call these *_free
functions directly from __*_dup, because the memory is initialized
with zeros at the beginning. Calling free(NULL) has no negative
effect and can be considered safe these days.
When compiled with PAM certain settings are not used, however they are
still defined in the stock login.defs file. Thus every command reports
them as "unknown setting contact administrator".
Alternative would be to parse stock login.defs and comment out/remove
settings that are not applied, when compiled with PAM.
Change suggested by Nicolas François as performance optimization.
Performance penalty would be really noticeable when usernames are
stored in remote databases (ldap).

Until now only exact username specification in /etc/sub[ug]id file allowed the
mapping. This prevented normal use for those users who use multiple usernames
with the same UID, as it rejected mapping even though it was allowed for
another username with the same UID.
This patch initially retains the old behaviour, for performance's sake. In the
first pass, new[ug]idmap only searches for exact username match.
If that yields no valid results, it continues into another loop, which does UID
resolution and comparison. If either definition (numeric UID mapping
specification or mapping specification for another username with the same UID as
current username) is found, it is used.
