/* [ʞ] nkvd.c - XDG directory enforcer
 *  ~ lexi hale  <lexi@hale.su>
 *  🄯 GNU AGPL v3
 *  $ cc -fPIC -pie -shared nkvd.c -Wl,-E -onkvd -ldl
 *       [-D_NO_GNU [-D_LIBC=…]] [-D_CONF_HOME=…]
 *  $ export LD_PRELOAD=nkvd.so <dissident>
 *
 *  ! NOTE:  for unknown reasons,  nkvd currently only works
 *    when  built without optimizations.  it's probably that
 *    wrecker Trotsky's fault. i'm working on it.
 *    - partial solution on GCC: using #pragma to disable
 *      optimization around the sensitive code. unclear if
 *      this bug affects other compilers.
 *    - bizarre complication: the bug can only be reproduced
 *      if  the -O flag  itself is present;  turning on  the 
 *      same  individual  optimization flags that  -O<x>  is 
 *      supposed to represent does not trigger the problem.
 *    - conclusion: compiler devils
 *
 *  ! WARNING: test this program thoroughly before you start
 *    exporting it from your shellrcs; if things get fucked,
 *    you  may not be able to execute any binaries with  the
 *    variable set,  and will need to log in as root or boot
 *    off  a rescue disk  to fix the problem.  LD_PRELOAD is
 *    not a toy. you have been warned.
 *
 *  ! WARNING:  while the  code *should*  theoretically work
 *    with  non-GNU  libcs,  i  don't  have  access  to  any
 *    computers running under such a configuration, so i was
 *    only able to test that the compilation process doesn't
 *    explode. there are likely to be bugs.  reports & merge
 *    requests especially are, as always, welcome.
 *
 *  ? tired of programs disrespecting your XDG configuration
 *    and shitting  all over  home sweet ~ ?  fear  no more!
 *    nkvd  is your  very  own digital  thug  to whip  those
 *    dissidents  into  line like  the  counterrevolutionary
 *    scum they  are.  simply command LD to preload nkvd.so,
 *    and it will wiretap startup,  then intercept any calls
 *    to  open(2)  (not  just   fopen)  to  make  sure  they
 *    point where  they're supposed  to. nkvd's  behavior is
 *    controlled by a number of environment variables:
 *
 *      - XDG_CONFIG_HOME  specifies the redirection target,
 *        to,  but can  be  overridden  with nkvd_gulag.  if
 *        neither  are  set,   $HOME/.config  will  be  used
 *        instead.
 *
 *      - nkvd_hq  specifies which directory to protect from
 *        cyberkulaks. it  defaults to your  home directory.
 *        attempts  to access  dotfiles  or dotfolders  with
 *        appropriate  names  in   this  directory  will  be
 *        redirected.
 *
 *      - nkvd_subversives  tells  nkvd  which  programs  to
 *        interdict. it is a  colon-separated list of names.
 *        to determine  if a  program is  on the  List, nkvd
 *        will check the  value of basename(argv[0]) against
 *        its  members. if  nkvd_subversives is  unset, nkvd
 *        will  interdict  all  programs except  for  system
 *        utilities  like rm and ls.  the first character of
 *        nkvd_subversives must be either "+", in which case
 *        it functions as a blacklist,  or a  "-",  in which
 *        case it functions as a whitelist.
 *
 *      - nkvd_interdict_all   tells  nkvd   which   dotfile
 *        accesses   to  redirect.   by  default,   it  will
 *        redirect access  to files  or folders  whose paths
 *        begin with  the string $HOME/.(basename(argv[0])),
 *        instead  returning fds to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/$1.  if
 *        nkvd_interdict_all  is set,  it will  redirect ALL
 *        accesses   to  files   whose   paths  begin   with
 *        $HOME/.  this  is   a  particularly  extreme  mode
 *        to  operate nkvd  in  and it  is  liable to  cause
 *        serious problems,  in particular for  any programs
 *        attempting   to   access    files   in   ~/.config
 *        or   ~/.local,  another   XDG  directory.   it  is
 *        recommended that nkvd_interdict_all should only be
 *        used with a carefully selected blacklist!
 *
 * NOTE: if you are compiling nkvd.c for a libc other than
 *       glibc, be sure to pass the flag -D_NO_GNU to the
 *       compiler to ensure appropriate behavior at runtime.
 *
 * TODO: extend nkvd to enforce other XDG directories?
 *
 * TODO: build labor  power, arm the workers,  and smash the
 *       bourgeoisie  to   impose  a  dictatorship   of  the
 *       proletariat.
 *
 * TODO: figure out a way to deal with {open,fstat,unlink}at(2)
 *
 * TODO: do a better job of canonicalizing paths, in case
 *       anyone tries to be tricky. (alas, realpath() et al
 *       are not viable for these purposes as they only work
 *       for files already in existence.)
 *
 * TODO: -pie allows the  program to be run  as a standalone
 *       binary.  exploit this;  allow  it  to launch  other
 *       binaries with itself  as LD_PRELOAD? detecting this
 *       state  of  affairs  will likely  only  be  possible
 *       through checking if LD_PRELOAD is empty. due to the
 *       difficulty of determining a binary's path on linux,
 *       this may  not be  feasible. switch back  to -shared
 *       and delete -Wl,-E if so.
 *
 * TODO: support a mappings file/variable for those programs
 *       too special to simply name their config file
 *       "~/.(argv[0])". 
 *
 * TODO: exempt xdg dirs beginning with ~/. from proscription
 *       in nkvd_interdict_all=1 mode
 *
 * TODO: instead of function passthrough,  alter environment
 *       to delete  LD_PRELOAD and re-exec  whitelisted apps
 *       without nkvd loading at all
