musl/src/misc/initgroups.c, branch master musl - an implementation of the standard library for Linux-based systems initgroups: do not artificially limit number of supplementary groups 2024年04月14日T03:05:46+00:00 Rich Felker dalias@aerifal.cx 2024年04月13日T16:15:37+00:00 3f49203c55ccd5d4217abf13addb18844136455f historically linux limited the number of supplementary groups a process could be in to 32, but this limit was raised to 65536 in linux 2.6.4. proposals to support the new limit, change NGROUPS_MAX, or make it dynamic have been stalled due to the impact it would have on initgroups where the groups array exists in automatic storage. the changes here decouple initgroups from the value of NGROUPS_MAX and allow it to fall back to allocating a buffer in the case where getgrouplist indicates the user has more supplementary groups than could be reported in the buffer. getgrouplist already involves allocation, so this does not pull in any new link dependency. likewise, getgrouplist is already using the public malloc (vs internal libc one), so initgroups does the same. if this turns out not to be the best choice, both can be changed together later. the initial buffer size is left at 32, but now as the literal value, so that any potential future change to NGROUPS_MAX will not affect initgroups.
historically linux limited the number of supplementary groups a
process could be in to 32, but this limit was raised to 65536 in linux
2.6.4. proposals to support the new limit, change NGROUPS_MAX, or make
it dynamic have been stalled due to the impact it would have on
initgroups where the groups array exists in automatic storage.
the changes here decouple initgroups from the value of NGROUPS_MAX and
allow it to fall back to allocating a buffer in the case where
getgrouplist indicates the user has more supplementary groups than
could be reported in the buffer. getgrouplist already involves
allocation, so this does not pull in any new link dependency.
likewise, getgrouplist is already using the public malloc (vs internal
libc one), so initgroups does the same. if this turns out not to be
the best choice, both can be changed together later.
the initial buffer size is left at 32, but now as the literal value,
so that any potential future change to NGROUPS_MAX will not affect
initgroups.
include cleanups: remove unused headers and add feature test macros 2013年12月12日T05:09:18+00:00 Szabolcs Nagy nsz@port70.net 2013年12月12日T05:09:18+00:00 571744447c23f91feb6439948f3a619aca850dfb
cleanup src/linux and src/misc trees, etc. 2012年09月07日T04:48:25+00:00 Rich Felker dalias@aerifal.cx 2012年09月07日T04:48:25+00:00 b9bb8f67bbac9bab5314fb00974ad469476e936e previously, it was pretty much random which one of these trees a given function appeared in. they have now been organized into: src/linux: non-POSIX linux syscalls (possibly shard with other nixen) src/legacy: various obsolete/legacy functions, mostly wrappers src/misc: still mostly uncategorized; some misc POSIX, some nonstd src/crypt: crypt hash functions further cleanup will be done later.
