Hi,

On Linux (Linux 5.15.0) I have a file /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg
(created by visiting https://savannah.gnu.org/users/jas in Firefox and clicking
the "Download GPG Key" in that page).

It appears to be a regular file:

$ ls -l /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg
-rw-rw-r-- 1 bruno bruno 7335 Dec 10 14:41 /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg

It sits on a file system of type "portal":

$ (cd /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/ && df -m .)
Filesystem     1M-blocks    Used Available Use% Mounted on
portal           1290923 1218257      7019 100% /run/user/1000/doc

I'm using 'mv' from GNU coreutils:

$ LC_ALL=C mv --version
mv (GNU coreutils) 9.4
...

Moving the file to an ext4 file system fails:

$ mv /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg .
mv: cannot open '/run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg' for reading: Too many levels of symbolic links

Look at the system calls:

$ strace mv /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg .

I don't understand the result of the openat() system call.

$ cp /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg .
works fine.

This means /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg is a regular file and 
its name can be resolved without symlink loops.


> openat(AT_FDCWD, "/run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg", O_RDONLY|O_NOFOLLOW) = -1 ELOOP (Too many levels of symbolic links)

This means /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg is a symlink, or 
there is a symlink loop when resolving /run or /run/user or ... or 
/run/user/1000/doc/1316905f. Which obviously contradicts the newfstatat 
results.


> I don't understand the result of the openat() system call.

Yes, it looks like a filesystem bug. I see a similar bug reported (but 
incorrectly diagnosed) here:

https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/issues/1117


> $ cp /run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg .
> works fine.

Presumably this is because cp uses "openat(AT_FDCWD, 
"/run/user/1000/doc/1316905f/jas-key.gpg", O_RDONLY)", i.e., cp doesn't 
use the O_NOFOLLOW flag and so it sidesteps the filesystem bug.

Assuming it's a FUSE portal filesystem, the bug could be either in the 
Linux FUSE kernel module, or (more likely) in the user-space code. I 
assume you are using GVFS, and I reproduced a similar problem, so I 
filed a bug report with the GVFS folks here:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/issues/774

I don't see how coreutils could easily work around these filesystem bugs.

Yes, indeed:
$ mount
...
portal on /run/user/1000/doc type fuse.portal (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=1000)
...
