2007-10-19Isolate some explicit usage of task->tgidPavel Emelyanov
With pid namespaces this field is now dangerous to use explicitly, so hide it behind the helpers. Also the pid and pgrp fields o task_struct and signal_struct are to be deprecated. Unfortunately this patch cannot be sent right now as this leads to tons of warnings, so start isolating them, and deprecate later. Actually the p->tgid == pid has to be changed to has_group_leader_pid(), but Oleg pointed out that in case of posix cpu timers this is the same, and thread_group_leader() is more preferable.

2007-10-19Uninline find_task_by_xxx set of functionsPavel Emelyanov
The find_task_by_something is a set of macros are used to find task by pid depending on what kind of pid is proposed - global or virtual one. All of them are wrappers above the most generic one - find_task_by_pid_type_ns() - and just substitute some args for it. It turned out, that dereferencing the current->nsproxy->pid_ns construction and pushing one more argument on the stack inline cause kernel text size to grow. This patch moves all this stuff out-of-line into kernel/pid.c. Together with the next patch it saves a bit less than 400 bytes from the .text section.

2007-10-19pid namespaces: changes to show virtual ids to userPavel Emelyanov
This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids. The idea is: - all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call; - when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids; - when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this task's namespace the global one is to be used; - when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

2007-09-10Fix spurious syscall tracing after PTRACE_DETACH + PTRACE_ATTACHRoland McGrath
When PTRACE_SYSCALL was used and then PTRACE_DETACH is used, the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE flag is left set on the formerly-traced task. This means that when a new tracer comes along and does PTRACE_ATTACH, it's possible he gets a syscall tracing stop even though he's never used PTRACE_SYSCALL. This happens if the task was in the middle of a system call when the second PTRACE_ATTACH was done. The symptom is an unexpected SIGTRAP when the tracer thinks that only SIGSTOP should have been provoked by his ptrace calls so far. A few machines already fixed this in ptrace_disable (i386, ia64, m68k). But all other machines do not, and still have this bug. On x86_64, this constitutes a regression in IA32 compatibility support. Since all machines now use TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE for this, I put the clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in the generic ptrace_detach code rather than adding it to every other machine's ptrace_disable.

2006-09-29[PATCH] pidspace: is_init()Sukadev Bhattiprolu
This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch. (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280). It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init(). Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other patches for now. Eric's original description: There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init because we give it special properties. Most significantly init must not die. This results in code all over the kernel test ->pid == 1. Introduce is_init to capture this case. With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are looking for only the first process on the system, not some other process that has pid == 1. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-06-26[PATCH] proc: Cleanup proc_fd_access_allowedEric W. Biederman
In process of getting proc_fd_access_allowed to work it has developed a few warts. In particular the special case that always allows introspection and the special case to allow inspection of kernel threads. The special case for introspection is needed for /proc/self/mem. The special case for kernel threads really should be overridable by security modules. So consolidate these checks into ptrace.c:may_attach(). The check to always allow introspection is trivial. The check to allow access to kernel threads, and zombies is a little trickier. mem_read and mem_write already verify an mm exists so it isn't needed twice. proc_fd_access_allowed only doesn't want a check to verify task->mm exits, s it prevents all access to kernel threads. So just move the task->mm check into ptrace_attach where it is needed for practical reasons. I did a quick audit and none of the security modules in the kernel seem to care if they are passed a task without an mm into security_ptrace. So the above move should be safe and it allows security modules to come up with more restrictive policy. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2006-05-11ptrace_attach: fix possible deadlock schenario with irqsLinus Torvalds
Eric Biederman points out that we can't take the task_lock while holding tasklist_lock for writing, because another CPU that holds the task lock might take an interrupt that then tries to take tasklist_lock for writing. Which would be a nasty deadlock, with one CPU spinning forever in an interrupt handler (although admittedly you need to really work at triggering it ;) Since the ptrace_attach() code is special and very unusual, just make it be extra careful, and use trylock+repeat to avoid the possible deadlock.

The ptrace_get_task_struct() helper that I added as part of the ptrace consolidation is useful in variety of places that currently opencode it. Switch them to the common helpers. Add a ptrace_traceme() helper that needs to be explicitly called, and simplify the ptrace_get_task_struct() interface. We don't need the request argument now, and we return the task_struct directly, using ERR_PTR() for error returns. It's a bit more code in the callers, but we have two sane routines that do one thing well now.

2005-11-29[PATCH] Fix crash when ptrace poking hugepage areasDavid Gibson
set_page_dirty() will not cope with being handed a page * which is part of a compound page, but not the master page in that compound page. This case can occur via access_process_vm() if you attemp to write to another process's hugepage memory area using ptrace() (causing an oops or hang). This patch fixes the bug by only calling set_page_dirty() from access_process_vm() if the page is not a compound page. We already use a similar fix in bio_set_pages_dirty() for the case of direct io to hugepages.

This patch moves it to kernel/ptrace.c and leaves the arch-specific code as arch_ptrace. Some architectures have a too different ptrace so we have to exclude them. They continue to keep their implementations. For sh64 I had to add a sh64_ptrace wrapper because it does some initialization on the first call.

2005-10-30[PATCH] ptrace/coredump/exit_group deadlockAndrea Arcangeli
I could seldom reproduce a deadlock with a task not killable in T state (TASK_STOPPED, not TASK_TRACED) by attaching a NPTL threaded program to gdb, by segfaulting the task and triggering a core dump while some other task is executing exit_group and while one task is in ptrace_attached TASK_STOPPED state (not TASK_TRACED yet). This originated from a gdb bugreport (the fact gdb was segfaulting the task wasn't a kernel bug), but I just incidentally noticed the gdb bug triggered a real kernel bug as well. Most threads hangs in exit_mm because the core_dumping is still going, the core dumping hangs because the stopped task doesn't exit, the stopped task can't wakeup because it has SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT set, hence the deadlock. To me it seems that the problem is that the force_sig_specific(SIGKILL) in zap_threads is a noop if the task has PF_PTRACED set (like in this case because gdb is attached). The __ptrace_unlink does nothing because the signal->flags is set to SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT|SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED (verified). The above info also shows that the stopped task hit a race and got the stop signal (presumably by the ptrace_attach, only the attach, state is still TASK_STOPPED and gdb hangs waiting the core before it can set it to TASK_TRACED) after one of the thread invoked the core dump (it's the core dump that sets signal->flags to SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT). So beside the fact nobody would wakeup the task in __ptrace_unlink (the state is _not_ TASK_TRACED), there's a secondary problem in the signal handling code, where a task should ignore the ptrace-sigstops as long as SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set (or the wakeup in __ptrace_unlink path wouldn't be enough). So I attempted to make this patch that seems to fix the problem. There were various ways to fix it, perhaps you prefer a different one, I just opted to the one that looked safer to me. I also removed the clearing of the stopped bits from the zap_other_threads (zap_other_threads was safe unlike zap_threads). I don't like useless code, this whole NPTL signal/ptrace thing is already unreadable enough and full of corner cases without confusing useless code into it to make it even less readable. And if this code is really needed, then you may want to explain why it's not being done in the other paths that sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT at least. Even after this patch I still wonder who serializes the read of p->ptrace in zap_threads. Patch is called ptrace-core_dump-exit_group-deadlock-1. This was the trace I've got: test T ffff81003e8118c0 0 14305 1 14311 14309 (NOTLB) ffff810058ccdde8 0000000000000082 000001f4000037e1 ffff810000000013 00000000000000f8 ffff81003e811b00 ffff81003e8118c0 ffff810011362100 0000000000000012 ffff810017ca4180 Call Trace:<ffffffff801317ed>{try_to_wake_up+893} <ffffffff80141677>{finish_stop+87} <ffffffff8014367f>{get_signal_to_deliver+1359} <ffffffff8010d3ad>{do_signal+157} <ffffffff8013deee>{ptrace_check_attach+222} <ffffffff80111575>{sys_ptrace+2293} <ffffffff80131810>{default_wake_function+0} <ffffffff80196399>{sys_ioctl+73} <ffffffff8010dd27>{sysret_signal+28} <ffffffff8010e00f>{ptregscall_common+103} test D ffff810011362100 0 14309 1 14305 14312 (NOTLB) ffff810053c81cf8 0000000000000082 0000000000000286 0000000000000001 0000000000000195 ffff810011362340 ffff810011362100 ffff81002e338040 ffff810001e0ca80 0000000000000001 Call Trace:<ffffffff801317ed>{try_to_wake_up+893} <ffffffff8044677d>{wait_for_completion+173} <ffffffff80131810>{default_wake_function+0} <ffffffff80137435>{exit_mm+149} <ffffffff801381af>{do_exit+479} <ffffffff80138d0c>{do_group_exit+252} <ffffffff801436db>{get_signal_to_deliver+1451} <ffffffff8010d3ad>{do_signal+157} <ffffffff8013deee>{ptrace_check_attach+222} <ffffffff80140850>{specific_send_sig_info+2 <ffffffff8014208a>{force_sig_info+186} <ffffffff804479a0>{do_int3+112} <ffffffff8010e308>{retint_signal+61} test D ffff81002e338040 0 14311 1 14716 14305 (NOTLB) ffff81005ca8dcf8 0000000000000082 0000000000000286 0000000000000001 0000000000000120 ffff81002e338280 ffff81002e338040 ffff8100481cb740 ffff810001e0ca80 0000000000000001 Call Trace:<ffffffff801317ed>{try_to_wake_up+893} <ffffffff8044677d>{wait_for_completion+173} <ffffffff80131810>{default_wake_function+0} <ffffffff80137435>{exit_mm+149} <ffffffff801381af>{do_exit+479} <ffffffff80142d0e>{__dequeue_signal+558} <ffffffff80138d0c>{do_group_exit+252} <ffffffff801436db>{get_signal_to_deliver+1451} <ffffffff8010d3ad>{do_signal+157} <ffffffff8013deee>{ptrace_check_attach+222} <ffffffff80140850>{specific_send_sig_info+208} <ffffffff8014208a>{force_sig_info+186} <ffffffff804479a0>{do_int3+112} <ffffffff8010e308>{retint_signal+61} test D ffff810017ca4180 0 14312 1 14309 13882 (NOTLB) ffff81005d15fcb8 0000000000000082 ffff81005d15fc58 ffffffff80130816 0000000000000897 ffff810017ca43c0 ffff810017ca4180 ffff81003e8118c0 0000000000000082 ffffffff801317ed Call Trace:<ffffffff80130816>{activate_task+150} <ffffffff801317ed>{try_to_wake_up+893} <ffffffff8044677d>{wait_for_completion+173} <ffffffff80131810>{default_wake_function+0} <ffffffff8018cdc3>{do_coredump+819} <ffffffff80445f52>{thread_return+82} <ffffffff801436d4>{get_signal_to_deliver+1444} <ffffffff8010d3ad>{do_signal+157} <ffffffff8013deee>{ptrace_check_attach+222} <ffffffff80140850>{specific_send_sig_info+2 <ffffffff804472e5>{_spin_unlock_irqrestore+5} <ffffffff8014208a>{force_sig_info+186} <ffffffff804476ff>{do_general_protection+159} <ffffffff8010e308>{retint_signal+61} Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <andrea@suse.de> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-05-01[PATCH] convert that currently tests _NSIG directly to use valid_signal()Jesper Juhl
Convert most of the current code that uses _NSIG directly to instead use valid_signal(). This avoids gcc -W warnings and off-by-one errors. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <juhl-lkml@dif.dk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
