PR #30136 review surfaced two issues, both rooted in the same audit gap: docker integration tests were running as root, not the unprivileged `hermes` user (UID 10000) that the runtime actually uses via `s6-setuidgid hermes`. Anything that probed PID-1 state or wrote to the s6 control surface worked as root in the tests but was inert in production. Fixes: 1. `_s6_running()` previously called `Path("/proc/1/exe").resolve()`, which is root-only readable. For UID 10000 the symlink yields PermissionError, `resolve()` silently returns the unresolved path, and `exe.name == "exe"` — so detection always returned False, the service-manager runtime-registration path was inert, and every `hermes profile create` / `hermes -p X gateway start` silently skipped the s6 hook. Replace with `/proc/1/comm` (world-readable) + `/run/s6/basedir` (s6-overlay-specific) — both required, fail closed. 2. `02-reconcile-profiles` now also chowns `/run/service/.s6-svscan/` {control,lock} to hermes so `s6-svscanctl -a/-an` works without root. Previously the directory chown stopped at `/run/service` and the FIFO inside stayed root-owned, so `register_profile_gateway` from hermes failed at the rescan-trigger step with EACCES — the wrapper in profiles.py caught the exception and printed a swallowed warning, so profile creation appeared to succeed while the slot was rolled back. Audit changes to flush this class of bug next time: - Add `docker_exec` / `docker_exec_sh` helpers to `tests/docker/conftest.py` that default to `-u hermes`. The module docstring explains why and flags `user="root"` as opt-in only for tests that explicitly need root (none currently do). - Refactor every `docker exec` call in tests/docker/ through the new helpers (test_dashboard.py, test_zombie_reaping.py, test_profile_gateway.py, test_container_restart.py, test_s6_profile_gateway_integration.py). - Add 5 unit tests covering `_s6_running` under various probe states (both signals present; comm wrong; basedir missing; PermissionError on /proc/1/comm; missing /proc — non-Linux). The PermissionError test is the explicit regression guard for the original bug. Known follow-up: the per-service `supervise/control` FIFO inside each `/run/service/gateway-<profile>/supervise/` is created root-owned by s6-supervise (which runs as root because s6-svscan is PID 1). `s6-svc -u/-d/-t` from the hermes user will get EACCES on those. The audit under `-u hermes` will reveal this in lifecycle tests — surfacing the issue cleanly so it can be fixed in a focused follow-up (likely via a small SUID helper or a polling chown loop in cont-init.d). The detection + svscanctl fixes here are independent and complete on their own.

"""Harness: PID 1 must reap orphaned zombie processes.
|
|
|
|
tini (current PID 1) reaps zombies via its built-in subreaper behavior.
|
|
s6-overlay's ``/init`` (Phase 2 PID 1) does the same. This invariant is
|
|
required for long-running containers spawning subprocesses (subagents,
|
|
dashboard, dynamic gateways) — otherwise the process table fills with
|
|
defunct entries and eventually exhausts the kernel PID space.
|
|
|
|
Every ``docker exec`` here runs as the unprivileged ``hermes`` user
|
|
(via :func:`docker_exec_sh` in conftest); see the conftest module
|
|
docstring.
