The client runs as proot's root, which the kernel does not see, and leaves many content files read-only; an update that rewrites one was refused (EACCES) and cancelled with "Missing file permissions" (Proton Experimental (ARM64), wineopenxr.dll). For the client's own processes, a refused write-open of a file the app owns now gets the owner's write bit - on the file, or on the directory a new file goes into - and one more try. Games and Wine keep ordinary permissions.

/*
|
|
* Root's way past a read-only file, for the Steam client.
|
|
*
|
|
* The client runs as root inside the session - proot's root, which the kernel never sees: to the
|
|
* kernel it is the app's own user. The client leaves many content files read-only (r-x------,
|
|
* ~290 files of Proton Experimental (ARM64) alone), and when an update later rewrites one of them
|
|
* it opens the file for writing expecting root's permission to override the mode. The kernel
|
|
* refuses (EACCES), the client reports "Missing file permissions" and cancels the update
|
|
* (2026-09-26: Proton Experimental (ARM64), "CFileWriter: errno: 13 ... wineopenxr.dll").
|
|
*
|
|
* So for the client's own processes, a refused write-open of a file this user owns is answered the
|
|
* way root's would be: the owner's write bit is added - to the file, or to the directory a new
|
|
* file is being created in - and the open is tried once more. chmod only succeeds on what the app
|
|
* owns, so nothing it could not already change is touched. Games, Wine and everything else keep
|
|
* ordinary permissions: only the processes started from the client's own directories take this.
