[ptxdist] Clash between rootfs and squashfs-tools packages directory permissions

[ptxdist] Clash between rootfs and squashfs-tools packages directory permissions

[Mircea Ciocan]

While compiling an image with RAUC included, the squashfs-tools is 
selected as a dependency and it has a different idea about /media 
directory permissions, don't know which is "right" in this case:

Configuring squashfs-tools.

Incompatible ownership or permissions for '/media':
rootfs: 0.0 0755 (implicit from /media/sd)
rootfs: 0.0 0777

One of these packages must be fixed!
./ptxdist-2020.07.0/rules/image-root-tgz.make:29: recipe for target 
'./platform-MCIMX6ULL-EVK/images/root.tgz' failed
make: *** [./platform-MCIMX6ULL-EVK/images/root.tgz] Error 1

Any idea to solve this "the right way" appreciated.


Best regards,

Mircea

A bit more details on the issue:

I was scratching my head on whom actually install this stuff, but it 
seem that is a ptxconf variable related to rootfs configuration: 
PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA2="sd"

This seem to be in the "core" of ptxdist, how can one specify the 
permissions and where could this be solved ?

This is a bug in the rootfs rule. You have:

PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA1="something"
PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA2="sd"
PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA3=""

And PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA4 and later are not set at all. However, the
actual check looks like this:

ifneq ($(PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA4),"")
	@$(call install_copy, rootfs, 0, 0, 0777, /media/$(PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA4))
endif

So $(PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA4) is an empty string and not '""', so this
results in:

	@$(call install_copy, rootfs, 0, 0, 0777, /media/)

So /media/ is first implicitly created with '0755' by /media/sd and then
explicitly with '0777' by the rule above. This results in the conflict you
get. I've queued a patch that changes the condition for media subdirs to:

ifneq ($(call remove_quotes,$(PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA4)),)

This should hit master soon. You can either copy the rootfs.make to your
BSP and make the same change, or you could set all remaining
PTXCONF_ROOTFS_MEDIA* to 'sd' as well. This way none of them hit the bug
and creating the same directory multiple times is not a problem.
