9d169ffc41 fix newusers when nss provides subids
Closes #331

1. drop 'has_any_range' nss method as it is not useful

2. do not try to create a subid range in newusers when using nss for
   subids, since that's not possible.

3d670ba7ed nss/libsubid: simplify the ranges variable for list_owner_ranges
Following alexey-tikhonov's suggestion.

Since we've dropped the 'owner' field in the data returned for
get_subid_ranges, we can just return a single allocated array of
simple structs.  This means we can return a ** instead of ***, and
we can get rid of the subid_free_ranges() helper, since the caller
can just free() the returned data.

322db32971 Don't return owner in list_owner_ranges API call.
Closes: 339

struct subordinate_range is pretty closely tied to the existing
subid code and /etc/subuid format, so it includes an owner.  Dropping
that or even renaming it is more painful than I'd first thought.
So introduce a 'struct subid_range' which is only the start and
count, leaving 'struct subordinate_range' as the owner, start and
count.

2b22a6909d libsubid: don't print error messages on stderr by default
Closes #325

Add a new subid_init() function which can be used to specify the
stream on which error messages should be printed.  (If you want to
get fancy you can redirect that to memory :)  If subid_init() is
not called, use stderr.  If NULL is passed, then /dev/null will
be used.

This patch also fixes up the 'Prog', which previously had to be
defined by any program linking against libsubid.  Now, by default
in libsubid it will show (subid).  Once subid_init() is called,
it will use the first variable passed to subid_init().

b8cbc2c113 login.defs: include HMAC_CRYPTO_ALGO key
Include the new HMAC_CRYPTO_ALGO key that is needed by pam_timestamp to
select the algorithm that is going to be used to calculate the message
authentication code.

pam_timestamp is currently using an embedded algorithm to calculate the
HMAC message, but the idea is to improve this behaviour by relying on
openssl's implementation. On top of that, the ability to change the
algorithm with a simple configuration change allows to simplify the
process of removing unsecure algorithms.

8492dee663 subids: support nsswitch
Closes #154

When starting any operation to do with subuid delegation, check
nsswitch for a module to use.  If none is specified, then use
the traditional /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid files.

Currently only one module is supported, and there is no fallback
to the files on errors.  Several possibilities could be considered:

1. in case of connection error, fall back to files
2. in case of unknown user, also fall back to files

etc...

When non-files nss module is used, functions to edit the range
are not supported.  It may make sense to support it, but it also
may make sense to require another tool to be used.

libsubordinateio also uses the nss_ helpers.  This is how for instance
lxc could easily be converted to supporting nsswitch.

Add a set of test cases, including a dummy libsubid_zzz module.  This
hardcodes values such that:

'ubuntu' gets 200000 - 300000
'user1' gets 100000 - 165536
'error' emulates an nss module error
'unknown' emulates a user unknown to the nss module
'conn' emulates a connection error ot the nss module

Changes to libsubid:

Change the list_owner_ranges api: return a count instead of making the array
null terminated.

This is a breaking change, so bump the libsubid abi major number.

Rename free_subuid_range and free_subgid_range to ungrant_subuid_range,
because otherwise it's confusing with free_subid_ranges which frees
    memory.

Run libsubid tests in jenkins

Switch argument order in find_subid_owners

Move the db locking into subordinateio.c

0a7888b1fa Create a new libsubid
Closes #154

Currently this has three functions: one which returns the
list of subuid ranges for a user, one returning the subgids,
and one which frees the ranges lists.

I might be mistaken about what -disable-man means;  some of
the code suggests it means just don't re-generate them, but
not totally ignore them.  But that doesn't seem to really work,
so let's just ignore man/ when -disable-man.

Remove --disable-shared.  I'm not sure why it was there, but it stems
from long, long ago, and I suspect it comes from some ancient
toolchain bug.

Create a tests/run_some, a shorter version of run_all.  I'll
slowly add tests to this as I verify they work, then I can
work on fixing the once which don't.

Also, don't touch man/ if not -enable-man.

Changelog:
	Apr 22: change the subid list api as recomended by Dan Walsh.
	Apr 23: implement get_subid_owner
	Apr 24: implement range add/release
	Apr 25: finish tests and rebase
	May 10: make @owner const

add new HOME_MODE login.defs(5) option
This option can be used to set a separate mode for useradd(8) and
newusers(8) to create the home directories with.
If this option is not set, the current behavior of using UMASK
or the default umask is preserved.

There are many distributions that set UMASK to 077 by default just
to create home directories not readable by others and use things like
/etc/profile, bashrc or sudo configuration files to set a less
restrictive
umask. This has always resulted in bug reports because it is hard
to follow as users tend to change files like bashrc and are not about
setting the umask to counteract the umask set in /etc/login.defs.

A recent change in sudo has also resulted in many bug reports about
this. sudo now tries to respect the umask set by pam modules and on
systems where pam does not set a umask, the login.defs UMASK value is
used.

cbd2472b7c migrate to new SELinux api
Using hard-coded access vector ids is deprecated and can lead to issues with custom SELinux policies.
Switch to `selinux_check_access()`.

Also use the libselinux log callback and log if available to audit.
This makes it easier for users to catch SELinux denials.

Drop legacy shortcut logic for passwd, which avoided a SELinux check if uid 0 changes a password of a user which username equals the current SELinux user identifier.
Nowadays usernames rarely match SELinux user identifiers and the benefit of skipping a SELinux check is negligible.

b52ce71c27 Add support for a vendor directory and libeconf
With this, it is possible for Linux distributors to store their
supplied default configuration files somewhere below /usr, while
/etc only contains the changes made by the user. The new option
--enable-vendordir defines where the shadow suite should additional
look for login.defs if this file is not in /etc.
libeconf is a key/value configuration file reading library, which
handles the split of configuration files in different locations
and merges them transparently for the application.

82fa6eccf9 lib/spawn.c run_command: don't loop forever if waitpid() is returning ECHILD
If SIGCHILD is being ignored, waitpid() will forever error with ECHILD and
this loop with never end, so don't loop if it errors with ECHILD.

c1d36a8acb Add support for btrfs subvolumes for user homes
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.
