[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] linux-user: allow to use sudo in guest

[Laurent Vivier]

When qemu-linux-user is used in a linux container or chroot,
if it needs to load binaries with SUID/SGID bits, it needs to
have root rights to be able to change UID/GID. To do that, we
need to install it with SUID bits and root owner.
Then, if the SUID bit is not set on the binary to load,
qemu will set its UID to the saved UID (the current user ID).

To be able to retrieve unsecure environment variables (LD_PRELOAD,
LD_LIBRARY_PATH) with SUID bit, we need to disable "unsetenv()".
Otherwise libc unsets these variables before entering in main()

To enable this feature, add "--suid-able" to the configure parameters.

You can check all is working fine with :

- install qemu-<arch> in your <arch> root filesystem environment
  and chown root:root ... and chmow +s ...

- check sudo in this environment (chroot or linux container) :

    address@hidden $ id
    uid=1000(laurent) gid=1000(laurent) groups=1000(laurent)
    address@hidden $ sudo id
    Password:
    uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

- check LD_PRELOAD is available (debian fakeroot is my testcase) :

    address@hidden $ fakeroot id
    uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=1000(laurent)
    address@hidden $ rm -f toto
    address@hidden $ fakeroot
    address@hidden # touch toto
    address@hidden # ls -l toto
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2012-12-18 22:50 toto
    address@hidden # exit
    exit
    address@hidden # ls -l toto
    -rw-r--r-- 1 laurent laurent 0 2012-12-18 22:50 toto
