The groupadd from shadow does not allow upper case group names, the
same is true for the upstream shadow. But distributions like
Debian/Ubuntu/CentOS has their own way to cope with this problem,
this patch is picked up from CentOS release 7.0 to relax the usernames
restrictions to allow the upper case group names, and the relaxation is
POSIX compliant because POSIX indicate that usernames are composed of
characters from the portable filename character set [A-Za-z0-9._-].

When building shadow-native, syslog was disabled for useradd and
groupadd. This disables it also for groupdel, groupmems, groupmod,
userdel and usermod (i.e., the use of syslog is now disabled for all
commands supported by useradd_base.bbclass).

<title>shadow: fix `su' behaviour</title>

<id>6820f05dad0b4f9b9bbcf7c2a0af8c34f66199ae</id>
<content type='text'>
0001-su.c-fix-to-exec-command-correctly.patch is removed. Below is the reason.
This patch is introduced to solve the 'su: applet not found' problem when
executing `su -l xxx -c env'. The patch references codes of previous release
of shadow. However, this patch introduces bug#5359. So it's not correct.

Let's first look at the root cause of 'su: applet not found' problem.
This problem appears when /bin/sh is provided by busybox.
When executing `su -l xxx -c env' command, the following function is invoked.
    execve("/bin/sh", ["-su", "-c", "env"], [/* 6 vars */])
Note that the argv[0] provided to new executable file (/bin/sh) is "-su".
As /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/busybox. It's /bin/busybox that is executed.
In busybox's appletlib.c, it would examine argv[0], try to find an applet
that has the same name, and then try to execute the main function of the
applet. This logic results in `su' applet from busybox to be executed.
However, we default to set 'BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID' to "1", so 'su' is not found.
Further more, even if we set 'BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID' to "0", so that 'su' applet
is found. The whole behaviour is still not correct. Because 'su' from shadow
takes higher priority than that from busybox, so 'su' from busybox should never
be executed on such system unless it's specified clearly by the end user.
The logic of busybox's appletlib.c is totally correct from the point of busybox
itself. It's an integration problem.

To solve the above problem, this patch comment out SU_NAME in /etc/login.defs
so that the final function executed in shadow's su is as below.
    execve("/bin/sh", ["-sh", "-c", "env"], [/* 6 vars */])

<title>shadow: enable support for subordinate IDs</title>

The subordinate IDs support in pkg-shadow allows unprivileged users to manage a
set of UIDs and GIDs. These subordinate IDs are specified by root, and can be
further used by the unprivileged user they have been assigned to. This user can
then create an e.g. user namespace, where he is allowed to manage his own set of
users and group from the pool of subordinate IDs. More details can be found at
http://lwn.net/Articles/533617/.

Pull a required change from upstream in order to make shadow cross-compile with
subordinate IDs support. Enable flag in recipe.

Changes since v1:
- update changelog

Even if useradd --root &lt;root&gt; is used it would still read login.defs
before doing the chroot() and thus use the one provided by the host
rather than the sysroot.
