Not because I admit they are technically wrong and not because of bug
reports (I receive nothing). But because I surprisingly meets so
strong opposition and resistance so lost any desire to continue that.
Anyone who interested in POSIX can dig out what changes and how
through cvs diffs.
system that don't have audit framefork compiled into kernel or ia32 binary
on amd64 system will result in SIGSYS. There is one place in su.c itself
where it tries to check for errno != ENOSYS, but it has been a nop since su
does not catch SIGSYS anyway. There are few other places in libbsm,
where attempt to invoke audit syscal would result in SIGSYS if no audit
support is present in the kernel, so that the only reliable method for
now is to disable SIGSYS completely in the case when BSM is compiled in.
In the long run, both direct invocation of audit-related syscalls and
libbsm should be made more intellegent to handle the case when BSM is not
compiled into the kernel gracefully.

when root doesn't have the permission to enter target user's home directory.
If set, PAM environment variable HOME will be used in chdir(2) instead of
pwd->pw_dir, this allows pam_chroot module to continue to function.
successful and failed su attempts will be recorded using the AUE_su
event type (login or lo class) if auditing is present in the system.
Currently, the records will have a header, subject, text (with the
actual diagnostics), a return and trailer token.
See audit_submit(3) for more information.

where su is executing (t)csh. csh's job handling is a little more
special than that of (a)sh, bash and even zsh and blows up a little
more spectacularly. This modification restores the original mucking
about with the tty pgrp, but is careful to only do it when su (or
su's child) is the foreground process.
While I'm here, fix a STDERR_FILENO spelling as suggested by bde.
su isn't the foreground process. Hopefully this won't break PAM,
but I couldn't find any useful information about ache's theory
that it will.
Specifically, this change fixes the following:
# sh
# echo $$
# su - root -c id &
# echo $$
The PID output changes as su seems to be kill -STOP'ing itself
and catching the parent shell in the process. This is especially
bad if you add a ``su - user -c command &'' to an rc script!

suggest to the user that it should be setuid, or should not be
running from a file system mounted nosuid.

normally succeed (because root can su to anyone), but pam_acct_mgmt()
will most likely fail, causing su to log a confusing "pam_acct_mgmt:
error in service module" message. To avoid this, call getpwnam()
before pam_acct_mgmt().

sometimes, su will receive a SIGTTOU when parent su tries to set child
su's process group as foreground group, and su will be stopped unexpectly,
ignoring SIGTTOU fixes the problem.

- if operating "as them" (su -l), use pam_{open,close}_session()
- allow PAM to override $HOME (pam_chroot needs this)
- chdir early, because later on we may be chrooted and chdir will fail
Also use pid_t instead of int where applicable.
signal never affects su directly, some shells changes its pgrp at running
or suspended time, so a broadcast SIGTSTP from child will mess up su's job
control.
