[PATCH] file: Add locking to f_getown · 43fa1adb

由 Eric W. Biederman 提交于 10月 02, 2006

This has been needed for a long time, but now with the advent of a
reference counted struct pid there are real consequences for getting this
wrong.

Someone I think it was Oleg Nesterov pointed out that this construct was
missing locking, when I introduced struct pid.  After taking time to review
the locking construct already present I figured out which lock needs to be
taken.  The other paths that access f_owner.pid take either the f_owner
read or the write lock.

[PATCH] proc: reorder the functions in base.c · 28a6d671

由 Eric W. Biederman 提交于 10月 02, 2006

There were enough changes in my last round of cleaning up proc I had to break
up the patch series into smaller chunks, and my last chunk never got resent.

This patchset gives proc dynamic inode numbers (the static inode numbers were
a pain to maintain and prevent all kinds of things), and removes the horrible
switch statements that had to be kept in sync with everything else.  Being
fully table driver takes us 90% of the way of being able to register new
process specific attributes in proc.

This patch:

Group the functions by what they implement instead of by type of operation.
As it existed base.c was quickly approaching the point where it could not be
followed.

No functionality or code changes asside from adding/removing forward
declartions are implemented in this patch.

[PATCH] proc: readdir race fix (take 3) · 0804ef4b

由 Eric W. Biederman 提交于 10月 02, 2006

The problem: An opendir, readdir, closedir sequence can fail to report
process ids that are continually in use throughout the sequence of system
calls.  For this race to trigger the process that proc_pid_readdir stops at
must exit before readdir is called again.

This can cause ps to fail to report processes, and it is in violation of
posix guarantees and normal application expectations with respect to
readdir.

Currently there is no way to work around this problem in user space short
of providing a gargantuan buffer to user space so the directory read all
happens in on system call.

This patch implements the normal directory semantics for proc, that
guarantee that a directory entry that is neither created nor destroyed
while reading the directory entry will be returned.  For directory that are
either created or destroyed during the readdir you may or may not see them.
 Furthermore you may seek to a directory offset you have previously seen.

These are the guarantee that ext[23] provides and that posix requires, and
more importantly that user space expects.  Plus it is a simple semantic to
implement reliable service.  It is just a matter of calling readdir a
second time if you are wondering if something new has show up.

These better semantics are implemented by scanning through the pids in
numerical order and by making the file offset a pid plus a fixed offset.

The pid scan happens on the pid bitmap, which when you look at it is
remarkably efficient for a brute force algorithm.  Given that a typical
cache line is 64 bytes and thus covers space for 64*8 == 200 pids.  There
are only 40 cache lines for the entire 32K pid space.  A typical system
will have 100 pids or more so this is actually fewer cache lines we have to
look at to scan a linked list, and the worst case of having to scan the
entire pid bitmap is pretty reasonable.

If we need something more efficient we can go to a more efficient data
structure for indexing the pids, but for now what we have should be
sufficient.

In addition this takes no additional locks and is actually less code than
what we are doing now.

Also another very subtle bug in this area has been fixed.  It is possible
to catch a task in the middle of de_thread where a thread is assuming the
thread of it's thread group leader.  This patch carefully handles that case
so if we hit it we don't fail to return the pid, that is undergoing the
de_thread dance.

[PATCH] Support piping into commands in /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern · d025c9db

由 Andi Kleen 提交于 9月 30, 2006

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:

> Very nice, do you happen to have a program that can accept this kind of
> input for crash dumps?  I'm guessing that the embedded people will
> really want this functionality.

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] r/o bind mounts: clean up OCFS2 nlink handling · 17ff7856

由 Mark Fasheh 提交于 9月 30, 2006

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.

Right now, there is at least the reference count on the dentry, and the

So, break the vfs_create() call out of open_namei(), and into a helper

thing since the arguments (acc_mode and flag) were being heavily massaged
anyway.
