sched.h: move pid helpers to pid.h

2023-12-21T00:26:31Z

This is needed for killing the sched.h dependency on rcupdate.h, and pid.h is a better place for this code anyways. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet

pid: Replace struct pid 1-element array with flex-array

2023-06-30T16:04:01Z

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 Cc: Jan Kara Cc: Jeff Xu Cc: Andreas Gruenbacher Cc: Daniel Verkamp Cc: "Paul E.

pid: add pidfd_prepare()

2023-04-03T09:16:56Z

Add a new helper that allows to reserve a pidfd and allocates a new pidfd file that stashes the provided struct pid. This will allow us to remove places that either open code this function or that call pidfd_create() but then have to call close_fd() because there are still failure points after pidfd_create() has been called.

pid: add pidfd_get_task() helper

2021-10-14T11:29:18Z

The number of system calls making use of pidfds is constantly increasing. Some of those new system calls duplicate the code to turn a pidfd into task_struct it refers to. Give them a simple helper for this.

kernel/pid.c: remove static qualifier from pidfd_create()

2021-08-10T10:53:04Z

With the idea of returning pidfds from the fanotify API, we need to expose a mechanism for creating pidfds. We drop the static qualifier from pidfd_create() and add its declaration to linux/pid.h so that the pidfd_create() helper can be called from other kernel subsystems i.e. fanotify.

Merge branch 'proc-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

2020-06-04T20:54:34Z

Pull proc updates from Eric Biederman: "This has four sets of changes: - modernize proc to support multiple private instances - ensure we see the exit of each process tid exactly - remove has_group_leader_pid - use pids not tasks in posix-cpu-timers lookup Alexey updated proc so each mount of proc uses a new superblock. This allows people to actually use mount options with proc with no fear of messing up another mount of proc. Given the kernel's internal mounts of proc for things like uml this was a real problem, and resulted in Android's hidepid mount options being ignored and introducing security issues. The rest of the changes are small cleanups and fixes that came out of my work to allow this change to proc. In essence it is swapping the pids in de_thread during exec which removes a special case the code had to handle. Then updating the code to stop handling that special case" * 'proc-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: proc: proc_pid_ns takes super_block as an argument remove the no longer needed pid_alive() check in __task_pid_nr_ns() posix-cpu-timers: Replace __get_task_for_clock with pid_for_clock posix-cpu-timers: Replace cpu_timer_pid_type with clock_pid_type posix-cpu-timers: Extend rcu_read_lock removing task_struct references signal: Remove has_group_leader_pid exec: Remove BUG_ON(has_group_leader_pid) posix-cpu-timer: Unify the now redundant code in lookup_task posix-cpu-timer: Tidy up group_leader logic in lookup_task proc: Ensure we see the exit of each process tid exactly once rculist: Add hlists_swap_heads_rcu proc: Use PIDTYPE_TGID in next_tgid Use proc_pid_ns() to get pid_namespace from the proc superblock proc: use named enums for better readability proc: use human-readable values for hidepid docs: proc: add documentation for "hidepid=4" and "subset=pid" options and new mount behavior proc: add option to mount only a pids subset proc: instantiate only pids that we can ptrace on 'hidepid=4' mount option proc: allow to mount many instances of proc in one pid namespace proc: rename struct proc_fs_info to proc_fs_opts

proc: Ensure we see the exit of each process tid exactly once

2020-04-28T21:13:58Z

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.
