Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] set UID and GID according to dynamicOwnership

When called with dynamicOwnership set, the qemuOpenFileAs function ignores it resulting in files not created with proper permissions. The issue is reported in: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvirt-users/2015-November/msg00039.html and also mentioned in: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-November/msg00453.html Signed-off-by: Matteo Cafasso <noxdafox(a)gmail.com&gt; --- src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c index 92a9961..b3b59b6 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c @@ -2932,6 +2932,11 @@ qemuOpenFileAs(uid_t fallback_uid, gid_t fallback_gid, if (path_shared <= 0 || dynamicOwnership) vfoflags |= VIR_FILE_OPEN_FORCE_OWNER; + if (dynamicOwnership) { + uid = fallback_uid; + gid = fallback_gid; + } + if (stat(path, &sb) == 0) { /* It already exists, we don't want to delete it on error */ need_unlink = false;
