Summary
Previously, the enroot configuration directory on a node was allocated on a per-group basis according to the user's primary group. However, the permissions are not set to be group readable as per #969.
From a permissions standpoint, we probably don't want the enroot cache directory to be group-readable by default. Users may have access to different sets of private container images, so we should default to making these permissions restrictive.
This PR therefore switches Enroot to use a per-user cache directory by default.
Test plan
Set up a test Slurm cluster with this configuration, and created two test users (
user1anduser2) with the same primary group.Started an enroot job as
user1:Then started a simultaneous job on the same host as
user2and confirmed this works (addressing the error condition in #969):Checked the cache directories on
virtual-gpu01and verified two cache directories exist:
