Bernardo Meurer	931930feb1	fix(libstore/lock): support users that belong to more than 10 groups ... The manpage for `getgrouplist` says: > If the number of groups of which user is a member is less than or > equal to *ngroups, then the value *ngroups is returned. > > If the user is a member of more than *ngroups groups, then > getgrouplist() returns -1. In this case, the value returned in > *ngroups can be used to resize the buffer passed to a further > call getgrouplist(). In our original code, however, we allocated a list of size `10` and, if `getgrouplist` returned `-1` threw an exception. In practice, this caused the code to fail for any user belonging to more than 10 groups. While unusual for single-user systems, large companies commonly have a huge number of POSIX groups users belong to, causing this issue to crop up and make multi-user Nix unusable in such settings. The fix is relatively simple, when `getgrouplist` fails, it stores the real number of GIDs in `ngroups`, so we must resize our list and retry. Only then, if it errors once more, we can raise an exception. This should be backported to, at least, 2.9.x.	2022-06-08 13:45:41 -04:00
