RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Created attachment 1151054[details]
reproducer and test program
Description of problem:
The RHEL Server for ARM kernel is based on upstream kernel-4.5.0, and this kernel adds a new O_TMPFILE flag to the open() and openat() syscalls. glibc needs an update to support setting the file permissions when using O_TMPFILE without O_CREAT. See upstream bug
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17523
Attached are two patches that (1) define O_TMPFILE and (2) update the open() and openat() syscall wrappers to support the mode.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glibc-2.17-105.el7
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. on a 64-bit ARM system, compile and run the attached o_tmpfile.c test program
Actual results:
~]# ./a.out
/proc/self/fd/3 -> /root/#201425340 (deleted) file created with O_TMPFILE
/proc/self/fd/3 has mode 00
FAIL: mode is not 0600
Expected results:
~]# ./a.out
/proc/self/fd/3 -> /root/#201867825 (deleted) file created with O_TMPFILE
/proc/self/fd/3 has mode 0600
