Description

Podman run fails with Error: error chowning container 01041b61625c64e34a849b974c5aa9dcc34377fd5025b9ee7fd629b2a0c5ad79 workdir to container root: chown /run/user/1000/test: read-only file system when I try to run a container with a read only rootfs.

This worked with v2.2.1.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

$ ROOTFS=/run/user/1000/test
$ mkdir $ROOTFS
$ podman unshare mount --rbind -r / $ROOTFS
$ podman unshare mount -t tmpfs none $ROOTFS/run
$ podman run -i -t --rootfs $ROOTFS sleep 5

Describe the results you received:

When resolving the workdir of a container, we may need to create unless
the user set it explicitly on the command line.  Otherwise, we just do a
presence check.  Unfortunately, there was a missing return that lead us
to fall through into attempting to create and chown the workdir.  That
caused a regression when running on a read-only root fs.

Fixes: containers#9230
