Eelco Dolstra	2fde7e0108	Split auto UID allocation from cgroups ... Cgroups are now only used for derivations that require the uid-range range feature. This allows auto UID allocation even on systems that don't have cgroups (like macOS). Also, make things work on modern systems that use cgroups v2 (where there is a single hierarchy and no "systemd" controller).	2022-11-08 16:03:42 +01:00

Bernardo Meurer	931930feb1	fix(libstore/lock): support users that belong to more than 10 groups ... The manpage for `getgrouplist` says: > If the number of groups of which user is a member is less than or > equal to *ngroups, then the value *ngroups is returned. > > If the user is a member of more than *ngroups groups, then > getgrouplist() returns -1. In this case, the value returned in > *ngroups can be used to resize the buffer passed to a further > call getgrouplist(). In our original code, however, we allocated a list of size `10` and, if `getgrouplist` returned `-1` threw an exception. In practice, this caused the code to fail for any user belonging to more than 10 groups. While unusual for single-user systems, large companies commonly have a huge number of POSIX groups users belong to, causing this issue to crop up and make multi-user Nix unusable in such settings. The fix is relatively simple, when `getgrouplist` fails, it stores the real number of GIDs in `ngroups`, so we must resize our list and retry. Only then, if it errors once more, we can raise an exception. This should be backported to, at least, 2.9.x.	2022-06-08 13:45:41 -04:00
