Subject: nsenter: add --preserve-credentials and cleanup setgroups() usage
X-Git-Tag: v2.26-rc1~58
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e99a6626d6262266f012a20ae69c8e4573ee22fd;p=thirdparty%2Futil-linux.git

nsenter: add --preserve-credentials and cleanup setgroups() usage

The new option --preserve-credentials completely disables all
operations related to UIGs and GIDs.

The patch also calls setgroups() before we enter user namespace (so
root can always clear their groups) and after we enter user namespace
(to detect /proc/self/setgroups "deny"). If both fail then nsenter
complains.
