    sdwdate (LainOS Layer 02 port) ~ Changelog

    1.0.0-8 ~ /etc/adjtime permission fix

    Bug Fix

    • Fixed hwclock: cannot open /etc/adjtime: Permission denied, occurring after hwclock --systohc successfully ran (following the 1.0.0-5 fix) but couldn't read/write its clock-drift calibration file. /etc/adjtime defaults to 0644, root-owned, with no group access.
    • Fix: added a checkpath call in the init script's start_pre() granting group access (root:sdwdate, mode 0664).
    • An initial attempt at this fix (in 1.0.0-7, not separately released) used checkpath -g sdwdate, an option that doesn't exist ~ checkpath has no -g flag. Corrected to checkpath -f -m 0664 -o root:sdwdate /etc/adjtime, using -o user:group instead.
    • Verified end-to-end: forced a full service restart (guaranteeing a first-sync, which always uses the instant /bin/date + hwclock path regardless of correction size), confirmed the log shows Instantly setting the time, a successful /bin/date output, and no adjtime error ~ hwclock --systohc completed silently and successfully this time.

    This is the third and final permission gap found through fresh-install testing in a clean KVM guest (after the RTC device access and hwclock CAP_SYS_TIME grant in 1.0.0-5). All three were only caught by testing on a genuinely clean install rather than continuing to iterate on an already-patched development machine.
