Testing of a new feature revealed that calling sysctl() to retrieve the value of the user.localbase variable passing too low a buffer size could leave the result buffer unchanged. The behavior in the normal case of a sufficiently large buffer was correct. All known callers pass a sufficiently large buffer and have thus not been affected by this issue. If a non-default value had been assigned to this variable, the result was as documented, too. Fix the function to fill the buffer with a partial result, if the passed in buffer size is too low to hold the full result. (cherry picked from commite11ad014d1) libc: add helper furnction to set sysctl() user.* variables Testing had revealed that trying to retrieve the user.localbase variable into to small a buffer would return the correct error code, but would not fill the available buffer space with a partial result. A partial result is of no use, but this is still a violation of the documented behavior, which has been fixed in the previous commit to this function. I just checked the code for "user.cs_path" and found that it had the same issue. Instead of fixing the logic for each user.* sysctl string variable individually, this commit adds a helper function set_user_str() that implements the semantics specified in the sysctl() man page. It is currently only used for "user.cs_path" and "user.localbase", but it will offer a significant simplification when further such variables will be added (as I intend to do). (cherry picked from commit9535d9f104) sysctlbyname(): restore access to user variables The optimization of sysctlbyname() in commitd05b53e0bahad the side-effect of not going through the fix-up for the user.* variables in the previously called sysctl() function. This lead to 0 or an empty strings being returned by sysctlbyname() for all user.* variables. An alternate implementation would store the user variables in the kernel during system start-up. That would allow to remove the fix-up code in the C library that is currently required to provide the actual values. This update restores the previous code path for the user.* variables and keeps the performance optimization intact for all other variables. (cherry picked from commitaf7d105379)
