From: Luke Shumaker <lukeshu@parabola.nu> Commit 15e9a4f378c8607c2ae1aa465436af4321db0e23 introduced logic for ttyname() sending back ENODEV to signal that we can't get a name for the TTY because we inherited it from a different mount namespace. However, just because we inherited it from a different mount namespace and it isn't available at its original path, doesn't mean that its name is unknowable; we can still try to find it by allowing the normal fall back on iterating through devices. An example scenario where this happens is with "/dev/console" in containers. It's a common practice among container managers (including systemd-nspawn) to allocate a PTY master/slave pair in the host's mount namespace (the slave having a path like "/dev/pty/$X"), bind mount the slave to "/dev/console" in the container's mount namespace, and send the slave FD to a process in the container. Inside of the container, the slave-end isn't available at its original path ("/dev/pts/$X"), since the container mount namespace has a separate devpts instance from the host (that path may or may not exist in the container; if it does exist, it's not the same PTY slave device). Currently ttyname{_r} sees that the file at the original "/dev/pts/$X" path doesn't match the FD passed to it, and fails early and gives up, even though if it kept searching it would find the TTY at "/dev/console". Fix that; don't have the ENODEV path force an early return inhibiting the fall-back search. This change is based on the previous patch that adds use of is_mytty in getttyname and getttyname_r. Without that change, this effectively reverts 15e9a4f, which made us disregard the false similarity of file pointed to by "/proc/self/fd/$Y", because if it doesn't bail prematurely then that file ("/dev/pts/$X") will just come up again anyway in the fall-back search. v2: - Rearrange commit order - Revise commit message v3: - Revise commit message - Revise ChangeLog message - Fix style of block comments --- ChangeLog | 5 +++++ sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ttyname.c | 19 ++++++++++++------- sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ttyname_r.c | 20 ++++++++++++-------- 3 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)
