core/host: shared host fingerprint refactor
Adds core/host.{h,c} — a single struct skeletonkey_host populated once
at startup and handed to every module callback via ctx->host. Replaces
the per-detect uname / /etc/os-release / sysctl / userns-fork-probe
calls scattered across the corpus with O(1) cached lookups, and gives
the dispatcher one consistent view of the host.
What's in the fingerprint:
- Identity: kernel_version (parsed from uname.release), arch (machine),
nodename, distro_id / distro_version_id / distro_pretty (parsed once
from /etc/os-release).
- Process state: euid, real_uid (defeats userns illusion via
/proc/self/uid_map), egid, username, is_root, is_ssh_session.
- Platform family: is_linux, is_debian_family, is_rpm_family,
is_arch_family, is_suse_family (file-existence checks once).
- Capability gates (Linux): unprivileged_userns_allowed (live
fork+unshare probe), apparmor_restrict_userns,
unprivileged_bpf_disabled, kpti_enabled, kernel_lockdown_active,
selinux_enforcing, yama_ptrace_restricted.
- System services: has_systemd, has_dbus_system.
Wiring:
- core/module.h forward-declares struct skeletonkey_host and adds the
pointer to skeletonkey_ctx. Modules opt-in by including
../../core/host.h.
- core/host.c is fully POD (no heap pointers) — uses a single file-
static instance, returns a stable pointer on every call. Lazily
populated on first skeletonkey_host_get().
- skeletonkey.c calls skeletonkey_host_get() at main() entry, stores
in ctx.host before any register_*() runs.
- cmd_auto's bespoke distro-fingerprint code (was an inline
read_os_release helper) is replaced with skeletonkey_host_print_banner(),
which emits a two-line banner of identity + capability gates.
Migrations:
- dirtydecrypt: kernel_version_current() -> ctx->host->kernel.
- fragnesia: removed local fg_userns_allowed() fork-probe in favour of
ctx->host->unprivileged_userns_allowed (no per-scan fork). Also
pulls kernel from ctx->host. The PRECOND_FAIL message now notes
whether AppArmor restriction is on.
- pack2theroot: access('/etc/debian_version') -> ctx->host->is_debian_family;
also short-circuits when ctx->host->has_dbus_system is false (saves
the GLib g_bus_get_sync attempt on systems without system D-Bus).
- overlayfs: replaced the inline is_ubuntu() /etc/os-release parser
with ctx->host->distro_id comparison. Local helper preserved for
symmetry / standalone builds.
Documentation: docs/ARCHITECTURE.md gains a 'Host fingerprint'
section describing the struct, the opt-in include pattern, and
example detect() usage. ROADMAP --auto accuracy log notes the
landing and flags remaining modules as an incremental follow-up.
Build verification:
- macOS (local): make clean && make -> Mach-O x86_64, 31 modules,
banner prints with distro=?/? (no /etc/os-release).
- Linux (docker gcc:latest + libglib2.0-dev): make clean && make ->
ELF 64-bit, 31 modules. Banner prints with kernel + distro=debian/13
+ 7 capability gates. dirtydecrypt correctly says 'predates the
rxgk code added in 7.0'; fragnesia PRECOND_FAILs with
'(host fingerprint)' annotation; pack2theroot PRECOND_FAILs on
no-DBus; overlayfs reports 'not Ubuntu (distro=debian)'.
