      pidns: fix a leak in /proc dentries and inodes with pid namespaces. · 29f12ca3
      由 Sukadev Bhattiprolu 提交于 
      Daniel Lezcano reported a leak in 'struct pid' and 'struct pid_namespace'
that is discussed in:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/2/159.

To summarize the thread, when container-init is terminated, it sets the
PF_EXITING flag, zaps other processes in the container and waits to reap
them.  As a part of reaping, the container-init should flush any /proc
dentries associated with the processes.  But because the container-init is
itself exiting and the following PF_EXITING check, the dentries are not
flushed, resulting in leak in /proc inodes and dentries.

This fix reverts the commit 7766755a ("Fix /proc dcache deadlock
in do_exit") which introduced the check for PF_EXITING.  At the time of
the commit, shrink_dcache_parent() flushed dentries from other filesystems
also and could have caused a deadlock which the commit fixed.  But as
pointed out by Eric Biederman, after commit 0feae5c4,
shrink_dcache_parent() no longer affects other filesystems.  So reverting
the commit is now safe.

As pointed out by Jan Kara, the leak is not as critical since the
unclaimed space will be reclaimed under memory pressure or by:

	echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

But since this check is no longer required, its best to remove it.

      mm: revert "oom: move oom_adj value" · 0753ba01
      由 KOSAKI Motohiro 提交于 
      The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to
the mm_struct.  It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM.

However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job
scheduler.  Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process.

Why? His program has the code of similar to the following.

	...
	set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */
	...
	if (vfork() == 0) {
		set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */
		execve("foo-bar-cmd");
	}
	....

vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct.  then above
set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also
change oom_adj for vfork() parent.  Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler)
lost OOM immune and it was killed.

Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program.
We must not break this assumption.

Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

      mm_for_maps: simplify, use ptrace_may_access() · a893a84e
      由 Oleg Nesterov 提交于 
      It would be nice to kill __ptrace_may_access(). It requires task_lock(),
but this lock is only needed to read mm->flags in the middle.

Convert mm_for_maps() to use ptrace_may_access(), this also simplifies
the code a little bit.

Also, we do not need to take ->mmap_sem in advance. In fact I think
mm_for_maps() should not play with ->mmap_sem at all, the caller should
take this lock.

With or without this patch, without ->cred_guard_mutex held we can race
with exec() and get the new ->mm but check old creds.

      oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct · 2ff05b2b
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      The per-task oom_adj value is a characteristic of its mm more than the
task itself since it's not possible to oom kill any thread that shares the
mm.  If a task were to be killed while attached to an mm that could not be
freed because another thread were set to OOM_DISABLE, it would have
needlessly been terminated since there is no potential for future memory
freeing.

This patch moves oomkilladj (now more appropriately named oom_adj) from
struct task_struct to struct mm_struct.  This requires task_lock() on a
task to check its oom_adj value to protect against exec, but it's already
necessary to take the lock when dereferencing the mm to find the total VM
size for the badness heuristic.

This fixes a livelock if the oom killer chooses a task and another thread
sharing the same memory has an oom_adj value of OOM_DISABLE.  This occurs
because oom_kill_task() repeatedly returns 1 and refuses to kill the
chosen task while select_bad_process() will repeatedly choose the same
task during the next retry.

Taking task_lock() in select_bad_process() to check for OOM_DISABLE and in
oom_kill_task() to check for threads sharing the same memory will be
removed in the next patch in this series where it will no longer be
necessary.

Writing to /proc/pid/oom_adj for a kthread will now return -EINVAL since
these threads are immune from oom killing already.  They simply report an
oom_adj value of OOM_DISABLE.

      fix setuid sometimes wouldn't · 7c2c7d99
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      check_unsafe_exec() also notes whether the fs_struct is being
shared by more threads than will get killed by the exec, and if so
sets LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE to make bprm_set_creds() careful about euid.
But /proc/<pid>/cwd and /proc/<pid>/root lookups make transient
use of get_fs_struct(), which also raises that sharing count.

This might occasionally cause a setuid program not to change euid,
in the same way as happened with files->count (check_unsafe_exec
also looks at sighand->count, but /proc doesn't raise that one).

We'd prefer exec not to unshare fs_struct: so fix this in procfs,
replacing get_fs_struct() by get_fs_path(), which does path_get
while still holding task_lock, instead of raising fs->count.

      Avoid 64-bit "switch()" statements on 32-bit architectures · ee568b25
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      Commit ee6f779b ("filp->f_pos not
correctly updated in proc_task_readdir") changed the proc code to use
filp->f_pos directly, rather than through a temporary variable.  In the
process, that caused the operations to be done on the full 64 bits, even
though the offset is never that big.

That's all fine and dandy per se, but for some unfathomable reason gcc
generates absolutely horrid code when using 64-bit values in switch()
statements.  To the point of actually calling out to gcc helper
functions like __cmpdi2 rather than just doing the trivial comparisons
directly the way gcc does for normal compares.  At which point we get
link failures, because we really don't want to support that kind of
crazy code.

Fix this by just casting the f_pos value to "unsigned long", which
is plenty big enough for /proc, and avoids the gcc code generation issue.

      filp->f_pos not correctly updated in proc_task_readdir · ee6f779b
      由 Zhang Le 提交于 
      filp->f_pos only get updated at the end of the function. Thus d_off of those
dirents who are in the middle will be 0, and this will cause a problem in
glibc's readdir implementation, specifically endless loop. Because when overflow
occurs, f_pos will be set to next dirent to read, however it will be 0, unless
the next one is the last one. So it will start over again and again.

There is a sample program in man 2 gendents. This is the output of the program
running on a multithread program's task dir before this patch is applied:

  $ ./a.out /proc/3807/task
  --------------- nread=128 ---------------
