[PATCH] cachefiles: Allow the cache to be non-root

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



    
Set mode 0600 on files in the cache so that cachefilesd can run as an
unprivileged user rather than leaving the files all with 0.  Directories
are already set to 0700.

Userspace then needs to set the uid and gid before issuing the "bind"
command and the cache must've been chown'd to those IDs.
