How to force specific group permissions (r/w) on files created in a directory structure?

I have a directory set up on a Linux server such that I'd like all files within it to be readable and writeable for a specific group.



So far, I've done chmod g+s mygroup parent, and I can see that all files inherit this group when created within this directory.



However, it does not force the g+rw permission, and so it is possible for a user to write a file into that directory such that others do not have read and/or write access to it.



How can I achieve this?

  • What is mygroup? Because of its name I expect a group but the syntax of chmod g+s mygroup parent doesn't fit. This obfuscates the question slightly.

Turns out the answer is to use ACLs to set a default:



setfacl -d -m u::rwX,g::rwX,o::- /path/to/parent

            How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

            Image
            Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
