* pkg/lookup: Return ID-only pointers on ErrNo*EntriesW. Trevor King2018-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Callers that only care about the IDs should try to convert the identifier to an integer before calling the Get* functions, so they can save the cost of hitting the filesystem and maybe or maybe not finding the other fields (User.Name, etc.). But callers that *want* the other fields but only actually need the ID can, with this commit, just call the Get* function and ignore ErrNo*Entries responses: user, err := lookup.GetUser(mount, userIDorName) if err != nil && err != ErrNoPasswdEntries { return err } Previously, they'd have to perform their own integer-conversion attempt in Get* error handling, with logic like: user, err := lookup.GetUser(mount, userIDorName) if err == ErrNoPasswdEntries { uuid, err := strconv.ParseUint(userIDorName, 10, 32) if err == nil { user.Uid = int(uuid) } } else if err != nil { return err } Signed-off-by: W.

* Don't fail if /etc/passwd or /etc/group does not existsDaniel J Walsh2018-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | Container images can be created without passwd or group file, currently if one of these containers gets run with a --user flag the container blows up complaining about t a missing /etc/passwd file. We just need to check if the error on read is ENOEXIST then allow the read to return, not fail. Signed-off-by: Daniel J Walsh <dwalsh@redhat.com>
* get user and group information using securejoin and runc's user librarybaude2018-10-29
for the purposes of performance and security, we use securejoin to contstruct the root fs's path so that symlinks are what they appear to be and no pointing to something naughty. then instead of chrooting to parse /etc/passwd|/etc/group, we now use the runc user/group methods which saves us quite a bit of performance.
