      [PATCH] Support piping into commands in /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern · d025c9db
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      Using the infrastructure created in previous patches implement support to
pipe core dumps into programs.

This is done by overloading the existing core_pattern sysctl
with a new syntax:

|program

When the first character of the pattern is a '|' the kernel will instead
threat the rest of the pattern as a command to run.  The core dump will be
written to the standard input of that program instead of to a file.

This is useful for having automatic core dump analysis without filling up
disks.  The program can do some simple analysis and save only a summary of
the core dump.

The core dump proces will run with the privileges and in the name space of
the process that caused the core dump.

I also increased the core pattern size to 128 bytes so that longer command
lines fit.

Most of the changes comes from allowing core dumps without seeks.  They are
fairly straight forward though.

One small incompatibility is that if someone had a core pattern previously
that started with '|' they will get suddenly new behaviour.  I think that's
unlikely to be a real problem though.

Additional background:

I had a cheesy demo/prototype.  Basically it wrote the dump to a file again,
ran gdb on it to get a backtrace and wrote the summary to a shared directory.
Then there was a simple CGI script to generate a "top 10" crashes HTML
listing.

Unfortunately this still had the disadvantage to needing full disk space for a
dump except for deleting it afterwards (in fact it was worse because over the
pipe holes didn't work so if you have a holey address map it would require
more space).

Fortunately gdb seems to be happy to handle /proc/pid/fd/xxx input pipes as
cores (at least it worked with zsh's =(cat core) syntax), so it would be
likely possible to do it without temporary space with a simple wrapper that
calls it in the right way.  I ran out of time before doing that though.

The demo prototype scripts weren't very good.  If there is really interest I
can dig them out (they are currently on a laptop disk on the desk with the
laptop itself being in service), but I would recommend to rewrite them for any
serious application of this and fix the disk space problem.

Also to be really useful it should probably find a way to automatically fetch
the debuginfos (I cheated and just installed them in advance).  If nobody else
does it I can probably do the rewrite myself again at some point.

My hope at some point was that desktops would support it in their builtin
crash reporters, but at least the KDE people I talked too seemed to be happy
with their user space only solution.

Alan sayeth:

  I don't believe that piping as such as neccessarily the right model, but
  the ability to intercept and processes core dumps from user space is asked
  for by many enterprise users as well.  They want to know about, capture,
  analyse and process core dumps, often centrally and in automated form.

      [PATCH] Some cleanup in the pipe code · d6cbd281
      由 Andi Kleen 提交于 
      Split the big and hard to read do_pipe function into smaller pieces.

This creates new create_write_pipe/free_write_pipe/create_read_pipe
functions.  These functions are made global so that they can be used by
other parts of the kernel.

The resulting code is more generic and easier to read and has cleaner error
handling and less gotos.

      [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: monitor zeroing of i_nlink · ce71ec36
      由 Dave Hansen 提交于 
      Some filesystems, instead of simply decrementing i_nlink, simply zero it
during an unlink operation.  We need to catch these in addition to the
decrement operations.

      [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: clean up OCFS2 nlink handling · 17ff7856
      由 Mark Fasheh 提交于 
      OCFS2 does some operations on i_nlink, then reverts them if some of its
operations fail to complete.  This does not fit in well with the
drop_nlink() logic where we expect i_nlink to stay at zero once it gets
there.

So, delay all of the nlink operations until we're sure that the operations
have completed.  Also, introduce a small helper to check whether an inode
has proper "unlinkable" i_nlink counts no matter whether it is a directory
or regular inode.

This patch is broken out from the others because it does contain some
logical changes.

      [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: unlink: monitor i_nlink · 9a53c3a7
      由 Dave Hansen 提交于 
      When a filesystem decrements i_nlink to zero, it means that a write must be
performed in order to drop the inode from the filesystem.

We're shortly going to have keep filesystems from being remounted r/o between
the time that this i_nlink decrement and that write occurs.

So, add a little helper function to do the decrements.  We'll tie into it in a
bit to note when i_nlink hits zero.

      [PATCH] r/o bind mount prepwork: move open_namei()'s vfs_create() · aab520e2
      由 Dave Hansen 提交于 
      The code around vfs_create() in open_namei() is getting a bit too complex.
Right now, there is at least the reference count on the dentry, and the
i_mutex to worry about.  Soon, we'll also have mnt_writecount.

So, break the vfs_create() call out of open_namei(), and into a helper
function.  This duplicates the call to may_open(), but that isn't such a bad
thing since the arguments (acc_mode and flag) were being heavily massaged
anyway.

      由 Dave Hansen 提交于 
      We're shortly going to be adding a bunch more permission checks in these
functions.  That requires adding either a bunch of new if() conditions, or
some gotos.  This patch collapses existing if()s and uses gotos instead to
prepare for the upcoming changes.
