Description Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 19:18:27 UTC
Created attachment 194139 [details]
remove header

This is a request for an exp-run for the attached diff which removes the sys/capability.h header.
Comment 1 Antoine Brodin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 19:30:03 UTC
Please provide a patch for all the ports that support sandboxing too.
Comment 2 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 19:33:26 UTC
As far as I could tell from grepping my copies of distfiles (which was done before the original commit) most ports already already include the correct header.

A few that don't already have appropriate patching: ftp/vsftpd/files/patch-sysdeputil.c x11/nvidia-driver/Makefile

I did find one port which did not: but only due to a local patch: net/ngrep/files/patch-ngrep.c

Would you be willing to try and an exp-run with the warning replaced with an #error, and I'll then patch any failing ports?
Comment 3 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 19:34:50 UTC
I meant multimedia/linux_dvbwrapper-kmod/files/patch-linux__dvbwrapper.c, not ftp/vsftpd/files/patch-sysdeputil.c
Comment 4 Antoine Brodin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 19:52:04 UTC
some examples: ports-mgmt/pkg , net/tcpdump, devel/py-pycapsicum
Comment 5 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 20:04:45 UTC
Of those: 
pkg: includes the correct header: 
py-pycapsicum: not in my original set: includes the correct header based on OSVERSION

net/tcpdump: this one looks like a real issue: it would have failed to compile, but not silently ignored the problem.

Would you be willing to try and an exp-run with the warning replaced with an #error, and I'll then patch any failing ports?
Comment 6 Antoine Brodin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 20:07:57 UTC
(In reply to Eitan Adler from comment #5)

pkg doesn't include the correct header:

work/pkg-1.10.5/libpkg/ssh.c:#include <sys/capability.h>
work/pkg-1.10.5/src/info.c:#include <sys/capability.h>
work/pkg-1.10.5/src/clean.c:#include <sys/capability.h>
work/pkg-1.10.5/src/event.c:#include <sys/capability.h>
work/pkg-1.10.5/src/audit.c:#include <sys/capability.h>
work/pkg-1.10.5/src/updating.c:#include <sys/capability.h>
work/pkg-1.10.5/src/upgrade.c:#include <sys/capability.h>
work/pkg-1.10.5/src/ssh.c:#include <sys/capability.h>

py-pycapsicum doesn't include the correct header, OSVERSION doesn't exist

A #error won't work, it will break all ports that expect the posix one.
Comment 7 Eitan Adler freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-06-10 20:10:33 UTC
Ah. I had pkg-devel installed. Sorry.
Alright, I guess this header will live forever.

These are broken today though, so it would be useful to identify them as well.

Comment 13 Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-11-09 18:26:37 UTC
(Continuing to use Debian's package search tools as we don't have indexing/search for the ports tree.)

I looked at Debian packages that have both <sys/capability.h> and cap_enter with results as follows:

Debian packages which do not appear to have a FreeBSD equivalent:

cadvisor
freebsd-buildutils
freebsd-glue
glibc
kfreebsd-10
lua-ljsyscall
openssh-ssh1

Packages which include deprecated sys/capability.h header (and now have a PR):

dnscrypt-proxy (dnscrypt-proxy2)
gitlab-shell
golang-golang-x-sys (lang/go)

Packages which include sys/capability.h expecting the Linux one:

mumble
qemu

Packages with no issue (e.g. have version-specific includes, check for both capsicum.h and capability.h, ports is patched and patch submitted upstream, etc.):

openssh
sshguard
tcpdump
Comment 14 Antoine Brodin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-11-09 19:30:38 UTC

Log:
  Remove sys/capability.h for the third time

  In all supported (and most unsupported) FreeBSD versions the appropriate
  header for Capsicum is sys/capsicum.h.  Software including sys/capability.h
  is most likely looking for Linux capabilities based on the withdrawn
  POSIX.1e draft.

  This header was previously removed in r334929 and r340156, but reverted
  each time due to ports failures.  These issues have now (broadly) been
  addressed.

Committed in r349170, if there's any remaining fallout it will be addressed on a case-by-case basis.
