There is currently a window of time between when the desired directory is
created and when its permissions are changed. During this time, its
permissions are restricted only by the umask.
Of course, in the "directory already exists" case, this doesn't matter, but if
the directory has been specifically deleted ahead of time so that it is
created afresh, this is an unnecessary window.
We can avoid this by passing the caller-provided BITS to 'mkdirat' when
attempting to create the last directory.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (mkdir-p/perms): Create target directory with BITS
permissions.

* gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (make-hurd-device-nodes): Cater for existing
directories (dev, servers).
(set-hurd-device-translators): Remove /servers/socket/1, that is created by
libexec/console-run. Cater for nonexistent /dev/console.
(boot-hurd-system): Call make-hurd-device-nodes on initial run.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47584>.
I removed the 'Based upon mkdir-p from (guix build utils)'
comment because it's quite a bit different now.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (verify-not-symbolic): Delete.
(mkdir-p/perms): Rewrite in terms of 'openat'.

* gnu/system/privilege.scm (<privileged-program>): Add a field
representing the program's POSIX capabilities.
(privileged-program-capabilities): New public procedure.
* doc/guix.texi (Privileged Programs): Document it.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-privileged-programs): Take a LIBCAP
package argument providing setcap(8) to apply said capabilities.
* gnu/services.scm (privileged-program->activation-gexp): Pass said
package argument where supported. Include privileged-program-capabilities
in the compatibility hack.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-setuid-programs): Rename this…
(activate-privileged-programs): …to this.
Operate on a list of <privileged-program> records.
* gnu/services.scm (setuid-program->activation-gexp): Adjust caller.
Create /run/setuid-programs compatibility symlinks so that we can
migrate all users (both package and human) piecemeal at our leisure.
Apart from being symlinks, this should be a user-invisible change.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (%privileged-program-directory): New variable.
[activate-setuid-programs]: Put privileged copies in
%PRIVILEGED-PROGRAM-DIRECTORY, with compatibility symlinks to each in
%SETUID-DIRECTORY.
* gnu/services.scm (setuid-program-service-type): Update docstring.
* doc/guix.texi (Setuid Programs): Update @file{} name accordingly.
As files in the store and /etc/fstab are world readable, specifying the
password in the file-system record is suboptimal. To mitigate this,
`mount.cifs' supports reading `username', `password' and `domain' options from
a file named by the `credentials' or `cred' option.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (mount-file-system): Read mount options from the
file specified via the `credentials' or `cred' option if specified.

This brings the on disk size of the kernel from 164 MiB to 144 MiB, or about
12%.

[version>=5.13]: Enable CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_ZSTD, else
CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_GZIP.

variable to 19.
[native-inputs]: Add zstd.

(modinfo-section-contents): Extend support to Zstd compressed module.

This is a follow-up to 8f8ec56052, which only
covers building initrd, while the booting code still tries to load nonexistent
files for builtin modules.
* gnu/build/linux-modules.scm (load-linux-modules-from-directory): Ignore
nonexistent module files.

Until now, the secret service had a hard-coded TCP endpoint on port
1004. This change lets users specify arbitrary socket addresses.
* gnu/build/secret-service.scm (socket-address->string): New procedure,
taken from Shepherd.
(secret-service-send-secrets): Replace ‘port’ by ‘address’ and adjust
accordingly.
(secret-service-receive-secrets): Likewise.
* gnu/services/virtualization.scm (secret-service-shepherd-services):
Likewise.

honor it. Adjust ‘start’ method accordingly.

* gnu/build/chromium-extension.scm (make-chromium-extension): Make use of the
make-signing-key procedure inside the argument field, making sure that it is
not evaluated at file-load time. This would otherwise try to resolve gnutls
when we can't guarantee it's defined because of dependency cycles.
Change-Id: Ia7b13acfbca475c2df073e9a88fc8bb9264dd968

* gnu/build/icecat-extension.scm: New file with a MAKE-ICECAT-EXTENSION
procedure that makes sure the add-on directory is a symlink, so that Icecat
can normalize it into a package store path.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Register it, as well as new patches.
* gnu/packages/browser-extensions.scm (ublock-origin)[properties]: Store the
add-on ID so that it is accessible in MAKE-ICECAT-EXTENSION.
[arguments]: Use the add-on ID as root directory.

'apply-guix-specific-patches' phase so that it applies the following two
patches.
[native-search-paths]: New field.
* gnu/packages/patches/icecat-compare-paths.patch: New patch that compares
add-on paths (which are package store paths) to detect package changes.
* gnu/packages/patches/icecat-use-system-wide-dir.patch: New patch that
replaces "/usr/lib/mozilla" (the system-wide directory for extensions and
native manifests) with "$ICECAT_SYSTEM_DIR".
The gnumach builtin IDE hd devices are still used, unless booting with
"noide".
* gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (set-hurd-device-translators): Create /dev/hd{0..3},
/dev/hd{0..3}s{0..3}.
