Re: cannot access pass device from within jail

What's the permissions of /dev/xpt0 in the jail? If it's not there I know
at least camcontrol won't work. I've not used mtx, so I can't say if it's
affected too or not.

However, looking at the truss output:

openat(AT_FDCWD,"/dev/pass7",O_RDWR|O_EXCL,00) ERR#1 'Operation not
permitted'
suggests something other than the canonical xpt0 issue else is going on. If
we look at passopen in cam, I can see two exit paths:

        error = securelevel_gt(td->td_ucred, 1); if (error != 0) {...
return error; }
securelevel_gt is just "return (cr->cr_prison->pr_securelevel > level ?
EPERM : 0);" which might be possible. What's the securelevel of the jail?
Maybe this is going on somehow?

The second is basically
        if (((flags & FWRITE) == 0) || ((flags & FREAD) == 0)) {... return
EPERM; }
which isn't happening because of the O_RDWR in the truss output.

The other possibility is that something above the pass driver is doing the
check. I've not looked at that code path yet, buy you can see if it's
making it to passopen() with dtrace and checking its return value. I don't
see anything in how we register the device, though, that would suggest
filtering it in jails.
