[kbd] [PATCH] vlock: allow sudo user to unlock his session

[Mikhail Novosyolov]

https://github.com/legionus/kbd/pull/45


If a non-root user ran sth like "sudo -i" and vlock'ed from inside it,
then that user himself should be able to unlock his console.

[user at HP-Elite-7300 tmp]$ echo $LOGNAME
user
[user at HP-Elite-7300 tmp]$ sudo -i
root at HP-Elite-7300:~# echo $LOGNAME
root
root at HP-Elite-7300:~# echo $SUDO_USER
user
root at HP-Elite-7300:~#

Tested on rosa2019.1 + kbd 2.2.0 + this patch:
[root at rosa-2019 kbd]# su - user
[user at rosa-2019 ~]$ sudo -i
[sudo] password for user:
[root at rosa-2019 ~]# vlock
Данное устройство tty (console) не является виртуальной консолью.
Блокировка console установлена user.
Пароль:
[root at rosa-2019 ~]#
sudo root session was successfully unlocked with user's password.
[root at rosa-2019 ~]# unset SUDO_USER
[root at rosa-2019 ~]# vlock
Данное устройство tty (console) не является виртуальной консолью.
Блокировка console установлена root.
Пароль:
root password is requested without $SUDO_ENV.

Another vlock implementation [1, 2] does not check that UIDs match,
I do not see sense in this check, removing it to make what I want work.
