As I suspected, the test program included below doesn't really receive the credentials (tested with a 4.5.0-rc2-net w/ the previous patch applied). As that's a minor, additional problem, I'll fix that, too. --- #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <assert.h> #include <errno.h> #include <string.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(void) { enum { server, client, size }; int socket_fd[size]; int const opt = 1; assert(socketpair(AF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM, 0, socket_fd) == 0); assert(setsockopt(socket_fd[server], SOL_SOCKET, SO_PASSCRED, &opt, sizeof(opt)) != -1); char const msg[] = "A random message"; if (fork() == 0) { sleep(1); send(socket_fd[client], msg, sizeof msg, MSG_DONTWAIT | MSG_NOSIGNAL); _exit(0); } union { struct cmsghdr cmh; char control[CMSG_SPACE(sizeof(struct ucred))]; } control_un; control_un.cmh.cmsg_len = CMSG_LEN(sizeof(struct ucred)); control_un.cmh.cmsg_level = SOL_SOCKET; control_un.cmh.cmsg_type = SCM_CREDENTIALS; struct msghdr msgh; msgh.msg_name = NULL; msgh.msg_namelen = 0; msgh.msg_iov = NULL; msgh.msg_iovlen = 0; msgh.msg_control = control_un.control; msgh.msg_controllen = sizeof(control_un.control); if (recvmsg(socket_fd[server], &msgh, MSG_PEEK) == -1) { printf("Error: %s\n", strerror(errno)); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } else { struct ucred *ucred; printf("Success?\n"); ucred = (void *)CMSG_DATA(&control_un.cmh); printf("... pid %ld, uid %d, gid %d\n", (long)ucred->pid, ucred->uid, ucred->gid); } return 0; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
