deluser: check if specified home is a directory before removing it

2020-06-09T16:04:31+00:00

On Alpine, some users use /dev/null as a home directory. When removing such a user with `deluser --remove-home` this causes the /dev/null device file to be removed which is undesirable. To prevent this pitfall, check if the home directory specified for the user is an actual directory (or a symlink to a directory). Implementations of similar tools for other operating systems also implement such checks. For instance, the OpenBSD rmuser(1) implementation [0].

win32: use lazy loading for certain DLLs

2020-06-02T07:27:46+00:00

Only a handful of functions are used from shell32.dll, userenv.dll and psapi.dll. Mostly these functions are in out of the way places. By loading the functions only when required we can avoid the startup cost of linking the three DLLs in the common case that they aren't needed.

libbb: reduce the overhead of single parameter bb_error_msg() calls

2019-07-02T09:35:03+00:00

Back in 2007, commit 0c97c9d43707 ("'simple' error message functions by Loic Grenie") introduced bb_simple_perror_msg() to allow for a lower overhead call to bb_perror_msg() when only a string was being printed with no parameters. This saves space for some CPU architectures because it avoids the overhead of a call to a variadic function. However there has never been a simple version of bb_error_msg(), and since 2007 many new calls to bb_perror_msg() have been added that only take a single parameter and so could have been using bb_simple_perror_message(). This changeset introduces 'simple' versions of bb_info_msg(), bb_error_msg(), bb_error_msg_and_die(), bb_herror_msg() and bb_herror_msg_and_die(), and replaces all calls that only take a single parameter, or use something like ("%s", arg), with calls to the corresponding 'simple' version. Since it is likely that single parameter calls to the variadic functions may be accidentally reintroduced in the future a new debugging config option WARN_SIMPLE_MSG has been introduced. This uses some macro magic which will cause any such calls to generate a warning, but this is turned off by default to avoid use of the unpleasant macros in normal circumstances. This is a large changeset due to the number of calls that have been replaced. The only files that contain changes other than simple substitution of function calls are libbb.h, libbb/herror_msg.c, libbb/verror_msg.c and libbb/xfuncs_printf.c. In miscutils/devfsd.c, networking/udhcp/common.h and util-linux/mdev.c additonal macros have been added for logging so that single parameter and multiple parameter logging variants exist. The amount of space saved varies considerably by architecture, and was found to be as follows (for 'defconfig' using GCC 7.4): Arm: -92 bytes MIPS: -52 bytes PPC: -1836 bytes x86_64: -938 bytes Note that for the MIPS architecture only an exception had to be made disabling the 'simple' calls for 'udhcp' (in networking/udhcp/common.h) because it made these files larger on MIPS.

Optionally re-introduce bb_info_msg()

2019-04-30T08:51:27+00:00

Between Busybox 1.24.2 and 1.25.0 the bb_info_msg() function was eliminated and calls to it changed to be bb_error_msg(). The downside of this is that daemons now log all messages to syslog at the LOG_ERR level which makes it hard to filter errors from informational messages. This change optionally re-introduces bb_info_msg(), controlled by a new option FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO, restores all the calls to bb_info_msg() that were removed (only in applets that set logmode to LOGMODE_SYSLOG or LOGMODE_BOTH), and also changes informational messages in ifplugd and ntpd. The code size change of this is as follows (using 'defconfig' on x86_64 with gcc 7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04) function old new delta bb_info_msg - 182 +182 bb_vinfo_msg - 27 +27 static.log7 194 198 +4 log8 190 191 +1 log5 190 191 +1 crondlog 45 - -45 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (add/remove: 2/1 grow/shrink: 3/0 up/down: 215/-45) Total: 170 bytes If you don't care about everything being logged at LOG_ERR level then when FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO is disabled Busybox actually gets smaller: function old new delta static.log7 194 200 +6 log8 190 193 +3 log5 190 193 +3 syslog_level 1 - -1 bb_verror_msg 583 581 -2 crondlog 45 - -45 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 3/1 up/down: 12/-48) Total: -36 bytes Signed-off-by: James Byrne Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko

win32: add function to convert slashes to backslashes

2019-03-15T10:27:19+00:00

There are now two places where slashes are converted to backslashes throughout a string so it makes sense to create a function to do this. To avoid confusion rename convert_slashes() to bs_to_slash() and call the new function slash_to_bs().

su: canonicalise directory before elevating privileges

2019-03-14T08:42:17+00:00

If the current directory is in a drive mapped to a network share we may not be able to access it once we have elevated privileges. Avoid this by canonicalising the path before calling ShellExecuteEx().
