If we take a relative path we first make it absolute, based on the
current working directory. But if CHASE_PREFIX_ROOT is passe we are
supposed to make the path absolute taking the specified root path into
account, but that makes no sense if we talk about the current working
directory as that is relative to the host's root in any case. Hence,
let's refuse this politely.
if (r < 0)
return r;
- if (flags & CHASE_PREFIX_ROOT)
+ if (flags & CHASE_PREFIX_ROOT) {
+
+ /* We don't support relative paths in combination with a root directory */
+ if (!path_is_absolute(path))
+ return -EINVAL;
+
path = prefix_roota(root, path);
+ }
}
r = path_make_absolute_cwd(path, &buffer);
