2024-03-13pidfs: remove config optionChristian Brauner1-6/+0
As Linus suggested this enables pidfs unconditionally. A key property to retain is the ability to compare pidfds by inode number (cf. [1]). That's extremely helpful just as comparing namespace file descriptors by inode number is. They are used in a variety of scenarios where they need to be compared, e.g., when receiving a pidfd via SO_PEERPIDFD from a socket to trivially authenticate a the sender and various other use-cases. For 64bit systems this is pretty trivial to do. For 32bit it's slightly more annoying as we discussed but we simply add a dumb ida based allocator that gets used on 32bit. This gives the same guarantees about inode numbers on 64bit without any overflow risk. Practically, we'll never run into overflow issues because we're constrained by the number of processes that can exist on 32bit and by the number of open files that can exist on a 32bit system. On 64bit none of this matters and things are very simple. If 32bit also needs the uniqueness guarantee they can simply parse the contents of /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. The uniqueness guarantees have a variety of use-cases. One of the most obvious ones is that they will make pidfiles (or "pidfdfiles", I guess) reliable as the unique identifier can be placed into there that won't be reycled. Also a frequent request. Note, I took the chance and simplified path_from_stashed() even further. Instead of passing the inode number explicitly to path_from_stashed() we let the filesystem handle that internally. So path_from_stashed() ends up even simpler than it is now. This is also a good solution allowing the cleanup code to be clean and consistent between 32bit and 64bit. The cleanup path in prepare_anon_dentry() is also switched around so we put the inode before the dentry allocation. This means we only have to call the cleanup handler for the filesystem's inode data once and can rely ->evict_inode() otherwise. Aside from having to have a bit of extra code for 32bit it actually ends up a nice cleanup for path_from_stashed() imho. Tested on both 32 and 64bit including error injection.

2024-03-01pidfs: convert to path_from_stashed() helperChristian Brauner1-0/+1
Moving pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a separate tiny in-kernel filesystem similar to sockfs, pipefs, and anon_inodefs causes selinux denials and thus various userspace components that make heavy use of pidfds to fail as pidfds used anon_inode_getfile() which aren't subject to any LSM hooks. But dentry_open() is and that would cause regressions. The failures that are seen are selinux denials. But the core failure is dbus-broker. That cascades into other services failing that depend on dbus-broker. For example, when dbus-broker fails to start polkit and all the others won't be able to work because they depend on dbus-broker. The reason for dbus-broker failing is because it doesn't handle failures for SO_PEERPIDFD correctly. Last kernel release we introduced SO_PEERPIDFD (and SCM_PIDFD). SO_PEERPIDFD allows dbus-broker and polkit and others to receive a pidfd for the peer of an AF_UNIX socket. This is the first time in the history of Linux that we can safely authenticate clients in a race-free manner. dbus-broker immediately made use of this but messed up the error checking. It only allowed EINVAL as a valid failure for SO_PEERPIDFD. That's obviously problematic not just because of LSM denials but because of seccomp denials that would prevent SO_PEERPIDFD from working; or any other new error code from there. So this is catching a flawed implementation in dbus-broker as well. It has to fallback to the old pid-based authentication when SO_PEERPIDFD doesn't work no matter the reasons otherwise it'll always risk such failures. So overall that LSM denial should not have caused dbus-broker to fail. It can never assume that a feature released one kernel ago like SO_PEERPIDFD can be assumed to be available. So, the next fix separate from the selinux policy update is to try and fix dbus-broker at [3]. That should make it into Fedora as well. In addition the selinux reference policy should also be updated. See [4] for that. If Selinux is in enforcing mode in userspace and it encounters anything that it doesn't know about it will deny it by default. And the policy is entirely in userspace including declaring new types for stuff like nsfs or pidfs to allow it. For now we continue to raise S_PRIVATE on the inode if it's a pidfs inode which means things behave exactly like before.

2024-03-01pidfd: add pidfsChristian Brauner1-0/+11
This moves pidfds from the anonymous inode infrastructure to a tiny pseudo filesystem. This has been on my todo for quite a while as it will unblock further work that we weren't able to do simply because of the very justified limitations of anonymous inodes. Moving pidfds to a tiny pseudo filesystem allows: * statx() on pidfds becomes useful for the first time. * pidfds can be compared simply via statx() and then comparing inode numbers. * pidfds have unique inode numbers for the system lifetime. * struct pid is now stashed in inode->i_private instead of file->private_data. This means it is now possible to introduce concepts that operate on a process once all file descriptors have been closed. A concrete example is kill-on-last-close. * file->private_data is freed up for per-file options for pidfds. * Each struct pid will refer to a different inode but the same struct pid will refer to the same inode if it's opened multiple times. In contrast to now where each struct pid refers to the same inode. Even if we were to move to anon_inode_create_getfile() which creates new inodes we'd still be associating the same struct pid with multiple different inodes. The tiny pseudo filesystem is not visible anywhere in userspace exactly like e.g., pipefs and sockfs. There's no lookup, there's no complex inode operations, nothing. Dentries and inodes are always deleted when the last pidfd is closed. We allocate a new inode for each struct pid and we reuse that inode for all pidfds. We use iget_locked() to find that inode again based on the inode number which isn't recycled. We allocate a new dentry for each pidfd that uses the same inode. That is similar to anonymous inodes which reuse the same inode for thousands of dentries. For pidfds we're talking way less than that. There usually won't be a lot of concurrent openers of the same struct pid. They can probably often be counted on two hands. I know that systemd does use separate pidfd for the same struct pid for various complex process tracking issues. So I think with that things actually become way simpler. Especially because we don't have to care about lookup. Dentries and inodes continue to be always deleted. The code is entirely optional and fairly small. If it's not selected we fallback to anonymous inodes. Heavily inspired by nsfs which uses a similar stashing mechanism just for namespaces.

2024-02-07pidfd: getfd should always report ESRCH if a task is exitingTycho Andersen1-1/+20
We can get EBADF from pidfd_getfd() if a task is currently exiting, which might be confusing. Let's check PF_EXITING, and just report ESRCH if so. I chose PF_EXITING, because it is set in exit_signals(), which is called before exit_files(). Since ->exit_status is mostly set after exit_files() in exit_notify(), using that still leaves a window open for the race.

2024-02-02pidfd: implement PIDFD_THREAD flag for pidfd_open()Oleg Nesterov1-11/+3
With this flag: - pidfd_open() doesn't require that the target task must be a thread-group leader - pidfd_poll() succeeds when the task exits and becomes a zombie (iow, passes exit_notify()), even if it is a leader and thread-group is not empty. This means that the behaviour of pidfd_poll(PIDFD_THREAD, pid-of-group-leader) is not well defined if it races with exec() from its sub-thread; pidfd_poll() can succeed or not depending on whether pidfd_task_exited() is called before or after exchange_tids(). Perhaps we can improve this behaviour later, pidfd_poll() can probably take sig->group_exec_task into account. But this doesn't really differ from the case when the leader exits before other threads (so pidfd_poll() succeeds) and then another thread execs and pidfd_poll() will block again. thread_group_exited() is no longer used, perhaps it can die.

2023-08-21memfd: replace ratcheting feature from vm.memfd_noexec with hierarchyAleksa Sarai1-0/+3
This sysctl has the very unusual behaviour of not allowing any user (even CAP_SYS_ADMIN) to reduce the restriction setting, meaning that if you were to set this sysctl to a more restrictive option in the host pidns you would need to reboot your machine in order to reset it. The justification given in [1] is that this is a security feature and thus it should not be possible to disable. Aside from the fact that we have plenty of security-related sysctls that can be disabled after being enabled (fs.protected_symlinks for instance), the protection provided by the sysctl is to stop users from being able to create a binary and then execute it. A user with CAP_SYS_ADMIN can trivially do this without memfd_create(2): % cat mount-memfd.c #include <fcntl.h> #include <string.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <linux/mount.h> #define SHELLCODE "#!/bin/echo this file was executed from this totally private tmpfs:" int main(void) { int fsfd = fsopen("tmpfs", FSOPEN_CLOEXEC); assert(fsfd >= 0); assert(!fsconfig(fsfd, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 2)); int dfd = fsmount(fsfd, FSMOUNT_CLOEXEC, 0); assert(dfd >= 0); int execfd = openat(dfd, "exe", O_CREAT | O_RDWR | O_CLOEXEC, 0782); assert(execfd >= 0); assert(write(execfd, SHELLCODE, strlen(SHELLCODE)) == strlen(SHELLCODE)); assert(!close(execfd)); char *execpath = NULL; char *argv[] = { "bad-exe", NULL }, *envp[] = { NULL }; execfd = openat(dfd, "exe", O_PATH | O_CLOEXEC); assert(execfd >= 0); assert(asprintf(&execpath, "/proc/self/fd/%d", execfd) > 0); assert(!execve(execpath, argv, envp)); } % ./mount-memfd this file was executed from this totally private tmpfs: /proc/self/fd/5 % Given that it is possible for CAP_SYS_ADMIN users to create executable binaries without memfd_create(2) and without touching the host filesystem (not to mention the many other things a CAP_SYS_ADMIN process would be able to do that would be equivalent or worse), it seems strange to cause a fair amount of headache to admins when there doesn't appear to be an actual security benefit to blocking this. There appear to be concerns about confused-deputy-esque attacks[2] but a confused deputy that can write to arbitrary sysctls is a bigger security issue than executable memfds. /* New API */ The primary requirement from the original author appears to be more based on the need to be able to restrict an entire system in a hierarchical manner[3], such that child namespaces cannot re-enable executable memfds. So, implement that behaviour explicitly -- the vm.memfd_noexec scope is evaluated up the pidns tree to &init_pid_ns and you have the most restrictive value applied to you. The new lower limit you can set vm.memfd_noexec is whatever limit applies to your parent. Note that a pidns will inherit a copy of the parent pidns's effective vm.memfd_noexec setting at unshare() time. This matches the existing behaviour, and it also ensures that a pidns will never have its vm.memfd_noexec setting *lowered* behind its back (but it will be raised if the parent raises theirs). /* Backwards Compatibility */ As the previous version of the sysctl didn't allow you to lower the setting at all, there are no backwards compatibility issues with this aspect of the change. However it should be noted that now that the setting is completely hierarchical. Previously, a cloned pidns would just copy the current pidns setting, meaning that if the parent's vm.memfd_noexec was changed it wouldn't propoagate to existing pid namespaces. Now, the restriction applies recursively. This is a uAPI change, however: * The sysctl is very new, having been merged in 6.3. * Several aspects of the sysctl were broken up until this patchset and the other patchset by Jeff Xu last month. And thus it seems incredibly unlikely that any real users would run into this issue. In the worst case, if this causes userspace isues we could make it so that modifying the setting follows the hierarchical rules but the restriction checking uses the cached copy.

2023-07-01pid: use struct_size_t() helperChristian Brauner1-1/+1
Before commit d67790ddf021 ("overflow: Add struct_size_t() helper") only struct_size() existed, which expects a valid pointer instance containing the flexible array. However, when we determine the default struct pid allocation size for the associated kmem cache of a pid namespace we need to take the nesting depth of the pid namespace into account without an variable instance necessarily being available. In commit b69f0aeb0689 ("pid: Replace struct pid 1-element array with flex-array") we used to handle this the old fashioned way and cast NULL to a struct pid pointer type. However, we do apparently have a dedicated struct_size_t() helper for exactly this case. So switch to that.

For pid namespaces, struct pid uses a dynamically sized array member, "numbers". This was implemented using the ancient 1-element fake flexible array, which has been deprecated for decades. Replace it with a C99 flexible array, refactor the array size calculations to use struct_size(), and address elements via indexes. Note that the static initializer (which defines a single element) works as-is, and requires no special handling. Without this, CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (and potentially CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE) will trigger bounds checks: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230517-bushaltestelle-super-e223978c1ba6@brauner Cc: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Jeff Xu <jeffxu@google.com> Cc: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com> Cc: Daniel Verkamp <dverkamp@chromium.org> Cc: "Paul E.

When a process has a gfs2 file open, the file is keeping a reference on the underlying gfs2 inode, and the inode is keeping the inode's iopen glock held in shared mode.

The new debugfs file contains one line for each gfs2 file descriptor, specifying the tgid, file descriptor number, and glock name, e.g., 1601 6 5/816d This list is compiled by iterating all tasks on the system using find_ge_pid(), and all file descriptors of each task using task_lookup_next_fd_rcu().

2020-12-10exec: Transform exec_update_mutex into a rw_semaphoreEric W. Biederman1-2/+2
Recently syzbot reported[0] that there is a deadlock amongst the users of exec_update_mutex. The problematic lock ordering found by lockdep was: perf_event_open (exec_update_mutex -> ovl_i_mutex) chown (ovl_i_mutex -> sb_writes) sendfile (sb_writes -> p->lock) by reading from a proc file and writing to overlayfs proc_pid_syscall (p->lock -> exec_update_mutex) While looking at possible solutions it occured to me that all of the users and possible users involved only wanted to state of the given process to remain the same.

2020-09-04pidfd: support PIDFD_NONBLOCK in pidfd_open()Christian Brauner1-5/+7
Introduce PIDFD_NONBLOCK to support non-blocking pidfd file descriptors. Ever since the introduction of pidfds and more advanced async io various programming languages such as Rust have grown support for async event libraries. These libraries are created to help build epoll-based event loops around file descriptors. A common pattern is to automatically make all file descriptors they manage to O_NONBLOCK. For such libraries the EAGAIN error code is treated specially. When a function is called that returns EAGAIN the function isn't called again until the event loop indicates the the file descriptor is ready. Supporting EAGAIN when waiting on pidfds makes such libraries just work with little effort. In the following patch we will extend waitid() internally to support non-blocking pidfds. This introduces a new flag PIDFD_NONBLOCK that is equivalent to O_NONBLOCK. This follows the same patterns we have for other (anon inode) file descriptors such as EFD_NONBLOCK, IN_NONBLOCK, SFD_NONBLOCK, TFD_NONBLOCK and the same for close-on-exec flags.

2020-08-19pid: Use generic ns_common::countKirill Tkhai1-1/+1
Switch over pid namespaces to use the newly introduced common lifetime counter. Currently every namespace type has its own lifetime counter which is stored in the specific namespace struct. The lifetime counters are used identically for all namespaces types. Namespaces may of course have additional unrelated counters and these are not altered. This introduces a common lifetime counter into struct ns_common. The ns_common struct encompasses information that all namespaces share. That should include the lifetime counter since its common for all of them. It also allows us to unify the type of the counters across all namespaces. Most of them use refcount_t but one uses atomic_t and at least one uses kref. Especially the last one doesn't make much sense since it's just a wrapper around refcount_t since 2016 and actually complicates cleanup operations by having to use container_of() to cast the correct namespace struct out of struct ns_common. Having the lifetime counter for the namespaces in one place reduces maintenance cost. Not just because after switching all namespaces over we will have removed more code than we added but also because the logic is more easily understandable and we indicate to the user that the basic lifetime requirements for all namespaces are currently identical.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull checkpoint-restore updates from Christian Brauner: "This enables unprivileged checkpoint/restore of processes. Given that this work has been going on for quite some time the first sentence in this summary is hopefully more exciting than the actual final code changes required. Unprivileged checkpoint/restore has seen a frequent increase in interest over the last two years and has thus been one of the main topics for the combined containers & checkpoint/restore microconference since at least 2018 (cf. [1]). Here are just the three most frequent use-cases that were brought forward: - The JVM developers are integrating checkpoint/restore into a Java VM to significantly decrease the startup time. - In high-performance computing environment a resource manager will typically be distributing jobs where users are always running as non-root. Long-running and "large" processes with significant startup times are supposed to be checkpointed and restored with CRIU. - Container migration as a non-root user. In all of these scenarios it is either desirable or required to run without CAP_SYS_ADMIN. The userspace implementation of checkpoint/restore CRIU already has the pull request for supporting unprivileged checkpoint/restore up (cf. [2]). To enable unprivileged checkpoint/restore a new dedicated capability CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is introduced. This solution has last been discussed in 2019 in a talk by Google at Linux Plumbers (cf. [1] "Update on Task Migration at Google Using CRIU") with Adrian and Nicolas providing the implementation now over the last months. In essence, this allows the CRIU binary to be installed with the CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE vfs capability set thereby enabling unprivileged users to restore processes. To make this possible the following permissions are altered: - Selecting a specific PID via clone3() set_tid relaxed from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. - Selecting a specific PID via /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid relaxed from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. - Accessing /proc/pid/map_files relaxed from init userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to init userns CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. - Changing /proc/self/exe from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to userns CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. Of these four changes the /proc/self/exe change deserves a few words because the reasoning behind even restricting /proc/self/exe changes in the first place is just full of historical quirks and tracking this down was a questionable version of fun that I'd like to spare others. In short, it is trivial to change /proc/self/exe as an unprivileged user, i.e. without userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN right now. Either via ptrace() or by simply intercepting the elf loader in userspace during exec. Nicolas was nice enough to even provide a POC for the latter (cf. [3]) to illustrate this fact. The original patchset which introduced PR_SET_MM_MAP had no permissions around changing the exe link. They too argued that it is trivial to spoof the exe link already which is true. The argument brought up against this was that the Tomoyo LSM uses the exe link in tomoyo_manager() to detect whether the calling process is a policy manager. This caused changing the exe links to be guarded by userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN. All in all this rather seems like a "better guard it with something rather than nothing" argument which imho doesn't qualify as a great security policy. Again, because spoofing the exe link is possible for the calling process so even if this were security relevant it was broken back then and would be broken today. So technically, dropping all permissions around changing the exe link would probably be possible and would send a clearer message to any userspace that relies on /proc/self/exe for security reasons that they should stop doing this but for now we're only relaxing the exe link permissions from userns CAP_SYS_ADMIN to userns CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. There's a final uapi change in here. Changing the exe link used to accidently return EINVAL when the caller lacked the necessary permissions instead of the more correct EPERM. This pr contains a commit fixing this. I assume that userspace won't notice or care and if they do I will revert this commit. But since we are changing the permissions anyway it seems like a good opportunity to try this fix. With these changes merged unprivileged checkpoint/restore will be possible and has already been tested by various users" [1] LPC 2018 1.

2020-04-29proc: Ensure we see the exit of each process tid exactly onceEric W. Biederman1-0/+19
When the thread group leader changes during exec and the old leaders thread is reaped proc_flush_pid will flush the dentries for the entire process because the leader still has it's original pid. Fix this by exchanging the pids in an rcu safe manner, and wrapping the code to do that up in a helper exchange_tids. When I removed switch_exec_pids and introduced this behavior in d73d65293e3e ("[PATCH] pidhash: kill switch_exec_pids") there really was nothing that cared as flushing happened with the cached dentry and de_thread flushed both of them on exec. This lack of fully exchanging pids became a problem a few months later when I introduced 48e6484d4902 ("[PATCH] proc: Rewrite the proc dentry flush on exit optimization"). Which overlooked the de_thread case was no longer swapping pids, and I was looking up proc dentries by task->pid. The current behavior isn't properly a bug as everything in proc will continue to work correctly just a little bit less efficiently. Fix this just so there are no little surprise corner cases waiting to bite people. -- Oleg points out this could be an issue in next_tgid in proc where has_group_leader_pid is called, and reording some of the assignments should fix that. -- Oleg points out this will break the 10 year old hack in __exit_signal.c > /* > * This can only happen if the caller is de_thread(). > * FIXME: this is the temporary hack, we should teach > * posix-cpu-timers to handle this case correctly. > */ > if (unlikely(has_group_leader_pid(tsk))) > posix_cpu_timers_exit_group(tsk); The code in next_tgid has been changed to use PIDTYPE_TGID, and the posix cpu timers code has been fixed so it does not need the 10 year old hack, so this should be safe to merge now.

It must always be taken with irqs disabled as tasklist_lock can be taken from interrupt context and if wait_pidfd.lock was already taken this would create a lock order inversion. Oleg suggested just disabling irqs where I have added extra calls to wait_pidfd.lock. That should be safe and I think the code will eventually do that. It was rightly pointed out by Christian that sharing the wait_pidfd.lock was a premature optimization. It is also true that my pre-merge window testing was insufficient. So remove the premature optimization and give struct pid a dedicated lock of it's own for struct pid things. I have verified that lockdep sees all 3 paths where we take the new pid->lock and lockdep does not complain. It is my current day dream that one day pid->lock can be used to guard the task lists as well and then the tasklist_lock won't need to be held to deliver signals. That will require taking pid->lock with irqs disabled.

There remains no more code in the kernel using pids_ns->proc_mnt, therefore remove it from the kernel. The big benefit of this change is that one of the most error prone and tricky parts of the pid namespace implementation, maintaining kernel mounts of proc is removed. In addition removing the unnecessary complexity of the kernel mount fixes a regression that caused the proc mount options to be ignored. Now that the initial mount of proc comes from userspace, those mount options are again honored. This fixes Android's usage of the proc hidepid option.

2020-02-24proc: Use a list of inodes to flush from procEric W. Biederman1-0/+1
Rework the flushing of proc to use a list of directory inodes that need to be flushed. The list is kept on struct pid not on struct task_struct, as there is a fixed connection between proc inodes and pids but at least for the case of de_thread the pid of a task_struct changes. This removes the dependency on proc_mnt which allows for different mounts of proc having different mount options even in the same pid namespace and this allows for the removal of proc_mnt which will trivially the first mount of proc to honor it's mount options. This flushing remains an optimization. The functions pid_delete_dentry and pid_revalidate ensure that ordinary dcache management will not attempt to use dentries past the point their respective task has died. When unused the shrinker will eventually be able to remove these dentries. There is a case in de_thread where proc_flush_pid can be called early for a given pid. Which winds up being safe (if suboptimal) as this is just an optiimization. Only pid directories are put on the list as the other per pid files are children of those directories and d_invalidate on the directory will get them as well. So that the pid can be used during flushing it's reference count is taken in release_task and dropped in proc_flush_pid. Further the call of proc_flush_pid is moved after the tasklist_lock is released in release_task so that it is certain that the pid has already been unhashed when flushing it taking place. This removes a small race where a dentry could recreated. As struct pid is supposed to be small and I need a per pid lock I reuse the only lock that currently exists in struct pid the the wait_pidfd.lock. The net result is that this adds all of this functionality with just a little extra list management overhead and a single extra pointer in struct pid. v2: Initialize pid->inodes. I somehow failed to get that initialization into the initial version of the patch. A boot failure was reported by "kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>", and failure to initialize that pid->inodes matches all of the reported symptoms. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2020-01-13pid: Implement pidfd_getfd syscallSargun Dhillon1-0/+90
This syscall allows for the retrieval of file descriptors from other processes, based on their pidfd. This is possible using ptrace, and injection of parasitic code to inject code which leverages SCM_RIGHTS to move file descriptors between a tracee and a tracer. Unfortunately, ptrace comes with a high cost of requiring the process to be stopped, and breaks debuggers. This does not require stopping the process under manipulation. One reason to use this is to allow sandboxers to take actions on file descriptors on the behalf of another process. For example, this can be combined with seccomp-bpf's user notification to do on-demand fd extraction and take privileged actions. One such privileged action is binding a socket to a privileged port. /* prototype */ /* flags is currently reserved and should be set to 0 */ int sys_pidfd_getfd(int pidfd, int fd, unsigned int flags); /* testing */ Ran self-test suite on x86_64 Signed-off-by: Sargun Dhillon <sargun@sargun.me> Acked-by: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@ubuntu.com> Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200107175927.4558-3-sargun@sargun.me Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@ubuntu.com>
2019-11-16fork: extend clone3() to support setting a PIDAdrian Reber1-15/+57
The main motivation to add set_tid to clone3() is CRIU. To restore a process with the same PID/TID CRIU currently uses /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid. It writes the desired (PID - 1) to ns_last_pid and then (quickly) does a clone(). This works most of the time, but it is racy. It is also slow as it requires multiple syscalls. Extending clone3() to support *set_tid makes it possible restore a process using CRIU without accessing /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid and race free (as long as the desired PID/TID is available). This clone3() extension places the same restrictions (CAP_SYS_ADMIN) on clone3() with *set_tid as they are currently in place for ns_last_pid. The original version of this change was using a single value for set_tid. At the 2019 LPC, after presenting set_tid, it was, however, decided to change set_tid to an array to enable setting the PID of a process in multiple PID namespaces at the same time. If a process is created in a PID namespace it is possible to influence the PID inside and outside of the PID namespace. Details also in the corresponding selftest. To create a process with the following PIDs: PID NS level Requested PID 0 (host) 31496 1 42 2 1 For that example the two newly introduced parameters to struct clone_args (set_tid and set_tid_size) would need to be: set_tid[0] = 1; set_tid[1] = 42; set_tid[2] = 31496; set_tid_size = 3; If only the PIDs of the two innermost nested PID namespaces should be defined it would look like this: set_tid[0] = 1; set_tid[1] = 42; set_tid_size = 2; The PID of the newly created process would then be the next available free PID in the PID namespace level 0 (host) and 42 in the PID namespace at level 1 and the PID of the process in the innermost PID namespace would be 1. The set_tid array is used to specify the PID of a process starting from the innermost nested PID namespaces up to set_tid_size PID namespaces. set_tid_size cannot be larger then the current PID namespace level.

2019-07-17kernel/pid.c: convert struct pid count to refcount_tJoel Fernandes (Google)1-5/+4
struct pid's count is an atomic_t field used as a refcount. Use refcount_t for it which is basically atomic_t but does additional checking to prevent use-after-free bugs. For memory ordering, the only change is with the following: - if ((atomic_read(&pid->count) == 1) || - atomic_dec_and_test(&pid->count)) { + if (refcount_dec_and_test(&pid->count)) { kmem_cache_free(ns->pid_cachep, pid); Here the change is from: Fully ordered --> RELEASE + ACQUIRE (as per refcount-vs-atomic.rst) This ACQUIRE should take care of making sure the free happens after the refcount_dec_and_test(). The above hunk also removes atomic_read() since it is not needed for the code to work and it is unclear how beneficial it is. The removal lets refcount_dec_and_test() check for cases where get_pid() happened before the object was freed.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner: "This adds two main features. - First, it adds polling support for pidfds. This allows process managers to know when a (non-parent) process dies in a race-free way. The notification mechanism used follows the same logic that is currently used when the parent of a task is notified of a child's death. With this patchset it is possible to put pidfds in an {e}poll loop and get reliable notifications for process (i.e. thread-group) exit. - The second feature compliments the first one by making it possible to retrieve pollable pidfds for processes that were not created using CLONE_PIDFD. A lot of processes get created with traditional PID-based calls such as fork() or clone() (without CLONE_PIDFD). For these processes a caller can currently not create a pollable pidfd. This is a problem for Android's low memory killer (LMK) and service managers such as systemd. Both patchsets are accompanied by selftests. It's perhaps worth noting that the work done so far and the work done in this branch for pidfd_open() and polling support do already see some adoption: - Android is in the process of backporting this work to all their LTS kernels [1] - Service managers make use of pidfd_send_signal but will need to wait until we enable waiting on pidfds for full adoption. - And projects I maintain make use of both pidfd_send_signal and CLONE_PIDFD [2] and will use polling support and pidfd_open() too" [1] https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22pidfd+polling+support+4.9+backport%22 https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22pidfd+polling+support+4.14+backport%22 https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22pidfd+polling+support+4.19+backport%22 [2] https://github.com/lxc/lxc/blob/aab6e3eb73c343231cdde775db938994fc6f2803/src/lxc/start.c#L1753 * tag 'pidfd-updates-v5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: tests: add pidfd_open() tests arch: wire-up pidfd_open() pid: add pidfd_open() pidfd: add polling selftests pidfd: add polling support
2019-06-28pid: add pidfd_open()Christian Brauner1-0/+69
This adds the pidfd_open() syscall. It allows a caller to retrieve pollable pidfds for a process which did not get created via CLONE_PIDFD, i.e. for a process that is created via traditional fork()/clone() calls that is only referenced by a PID: int pidfd = pidfd_open(1234, 0); ret = pidfd_send_signal(pidfd, SIGSTOP, NULL, 0); With the introduction of pidfds through CLONE_PIDFD it is possible to created pidfds at process creation time. However, a lot of processes get created with traditional PID-based calls such as fork() or clone() (without CLONE_PIDFD). For these processes a caller can currently not create a pollable pidfd. This is a problem for Android's low memory killer (LMK) and service managers such as systemd. Both are examples of tools that want to make use of pidfds to get reliable notification of process exit for non-parents (pidfd polling) and race-free signal sending (pidfd_send_signal()). They intend to switch to this API for process supervision/management as soon as possible. Having no way to get pollable pidfds from PID-only processes is one of the biggest blockers for them in adopting this api. With pidfd_open() making it possible to retrieve pidfds for PID-based processes we enable them to adopt this api. In line with Arnd's recent changes to consolidate syscall numbers across architectures, I have added the pidfd_open() syscall to all architectures at the same time.

2019-06-28pidfd: add polling supportJoel Fernandes (Google)1-0/+2
This patch adds polling support to pidfd. Android low memory killer (LMK) needs to know when a process dies once it is sent the kill signal. It does so by checking for the existence of /proc/pid which is both racy and slow. For example, if a PID is reused between when LMK sends a kill signal and checks for existence of the PID, since the wrong PID is now possibly checked for existence. Using the polling support, LMK will be able to get notified when a process exists in race-free and fast way, and allows the LMK to do other things (such as by polling on other fds) while awaiting the process being killed to die. For notification to polling processes, we follow the same existing mechanism in the kernel used when the parent of the task group is to be notified of a child's death (do_notify_parent). This is precisely when the tasks waiting on a poll of pidfd are also awakened in this patch. We have decided to include the waitqueue in struct pid for the following reasons: 1. The wait queue has to survive for the lifetime of the poll. Including it in task_struct would not be option in this case because the task can be reaped and destroyed before the poll returns. 2. By including the struct pid for the waitqueue means that during de_thread(), the new thread group leader automatically gets the new waitqueue/pid even though its task_struct is different. Appropriate test cases are added in the second patch to provide coverage of all the cases the patch is handling.
