syscall: use openat2(RESOLVE_BENEATH) on Linux for secure_relative_open
The CVE fix in commit c35e283 made secure_relative_open() walk every
component of relpath with O_NOFOLLOW. That blocks every symlink in the
path, which is stricter than the threat model required: legitimate
directory symlinks within the destination tree (e.g. when using -K /
--copy-dirlinks) are also rejected, breaking delta transfers with
"failed verification -- update discarded". See issue #715.
On Linux 5.6+, openat2(RESOLVE_BENEATH | RESOLVE_NO_MAGICLINKS) gives
us exactly what we want: the kernel rejects any resolution that would
escape the starting directory (via "..", absolute paths, or symlinks
pointing outside dirfd) while still following symlinks that resolve
within it. /proc magic-links are blocked too.
Use openat2 first; fall back to the existing per-component O_NOFOLLOW
walk on ENOSYS (kernel < 5.6). The lexical "../" checks at the head
of the function are kept as defense in depth. The Linux gate is
plain #ifdef __linux__: the runtime ENOSYS fallback covers the only
case that actually matters (header present + old kernel), and any
Linux build environment without linux/openat2.h will fail with a
clear "no such file" error rather than silently disabling the
protection.
Verified manually that openat2(RESOLVE_BENEATH) blocks all four
escape patterns (absolute symlink, ../ symlink, lexical .., absolute
path) while allowing direct and within-tree symlinks. The new
testsuite/symlink-dirlink-basis.test (taken from PR #864 by Samuel
Henrique) exercises the issue #715 regression and passes; full
make check passes 47/47.

# Test that updating a file through a directory symlink works when using
|
||||
# -K (--copy-dirlinks). This is a regression test for:
|
||||
# https://github.com/RsyncProject/rsync/issues/715
|
||||
#
|
||||
# The CVE fix in commit c35e283 introduced secure_relative_open() which
|
||||
# uses O_NOFOLLOW on all path components, breaking legitimate directory
|
||||
# symlinks on the receiver side. The fix splits the path into basedir
|
||||
# (dirname, symlinks followed) and basename (O_NOFOLLOW) so that
|
||||
# directory symlinks are traversed while the final file component is
|
||||
# still protected.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# The regression only manifests when delta matching is triggered (i.e.,
|
||||
# the sender finds matching blocks in the old file). Small files with
|
||||
# completely different content are transferred in full and don't trigger
|
||||
# the bug. We use a large file with a small modification to ensure
|
||||
# delta transfer is used.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# In addition to the original regression, this test covers edge cases
|
||||
# in the fix itself:
|
||||
# - --backup with directory symlinks (finish_transfer pointer identity)
|
||||
# - --partial-dir with protocol < 29 (fnamecmp != partialptr guard)
|
||||
# - --inplace with directory symlinks (updating_basis_or_equiv check)
|
||||
# - Files without a dirname (top-level files, no split needed)
