2009-12-15procfs: allow threads to rename siblings via /proc/pid/tasks/tid/commjohn stultz
Setting a thread's comm to be something unique is a very useful ability and is helpful for debugging complicated threaded applications. However currently the only way to set a thread name is for the thread to name itself via the PR_SET_NAME prctl. However, there may be situations where it would be advantageous for a thread dispatcher to be naming the threads its managing, rather then having the threads self-describe themselves. This sort of behavior is available on other systems via the pthread_setname_np() interface. This patch exports a task's comm via proc/pid/comm and proc/pid/task/tid/comm interfaces, and allows thread siblings to write to these values.

2009-09-24exec: fix set_binfmt() vs sys_delete_module() raceOleg Nesterov
sys_delete_module() can set MODULE_STATE_GOING after search_binary_handler() does try_module_get(). In this case set_binfmt()->try_module_get() fails but since none of the callers check the returned error, the task will run with the wrong old ->binfmt. The proper fix should change all ->load_binary() methods, but we can rely on fact that the caller must hold a reference to binfmt->module and use __module_get() which never fails.

2009-09-24exec: allow do_coredump() to wait for user space pipe readers to completeNeil Horman
Allow core_pattern pipes to wait for user space to complete One of the things that user space processes like to do is look at metadata for a crashing process in their /proc/<pid> directory. this is racy however, since do_coredump in the kernel doesn't wait for the user space process to complete before it reaps the crashing process. This patch corrects that. Allowing the kernel to wait for the user space process to complete before cleaning up the crashing process. This is a bit tricky to do for a few reasons: 1) The user space process isn't our child, so we can't sys_wait4 on it 2) We need to close the pipe before waiting for the user process to complete, since the user process may rely on an EOF condition I've discussed several solutions with Oleg Nesterov off-list about this, and this is the one we've come up with. We add ourselves as a pipe reader (to prevent premature cleanup of the pipe_inode_info), and remove ourselves as a writer (to provide an EOF condition to the writer in user space), then we iterate until the user space process exits (which we detect by pipe->readers == 1, hence the > 1 check in the loop). When we exit the loop, we restore the proper reader/writer values, then we return and let filp_close in do_coredump clean up the pipe data properly.

2009-09-24exec: let do_coredump() limit the number of concurrent dumps to pipesNeil Horman
Introduce core pipe limiting sysctl. Since we can dump cores to pipe, rather than directly to the filesystem, we create a condition in which a user can create a very high load on the system simply by running bad applications. If the pipe reader specified in core_pattern is poorly written, we can have lots of ourstandig resources and processes in the system. This sysctl introduces an ability to limit that resource consumption. core_pipe_limit defines how many in-flight dumps may be run in parallel, dumps beyond this value are skipped and a note is made in the kernel log. A special value of 0 in core_pipe_limit denotes unlimited core dumps may be handled (this is the default value).

2009-09-24exec: make do_coredump() more resilient to recursive crashesNeil Horman
Change how we detect recursive dumps. Currently we have a mechanism by which we try to compare pathnames of the crashing process to the core_pattern path. This is broken for a dozen reasons, and just doesn't work in any sort of robust way. I'm replacing it with the use of a 0 RLIMIT_CORE value. Since helper apps set RLIMIT_CORE to zero, we don't write out core files for any process with that particular limit set. It the core_pattern is a pipe, any non-zero limit is translated to RLIM_INFINITY. This allows complete dumps to be captured, but prevents infinite recursion in the event that the core_pattern process itself crashes.

2009-09-23procfs: provide stack information for threadsStefani Seibold
A patch to give a better overview of the userland application stack usage, especially for embedded linux. Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads. There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack. This is a value information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage. A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like: 08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z 08049000-0804a000 rw-p 00001000 03:00 8312 /opt/z 0804a000-0806b000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] a7d12000-a7d13000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 a7d13000-a7f13000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [thread stack: 001ff4b4] a7f13000-a7f14000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 a7f14000-a7f36000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 a7f36000-a8069000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 4222 /lib/libc.so.6 a8069000-a806b000 r--p 00133000 03:00 4222 /lib/libc.so.6 a806b000-a806c000 rw-p 00135000 03:00 4222 /lib/libc.so.6 a806c000-a806f000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 a806f000-a8083000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 14462 /lib/libpthread.so.0 a8083000-a8084000 r--p 00013000 03:00 14462 /lib/libpthread.so.0 a8084000-a8085000 rw-p 00014000 03:00 14462 /lib/libpthread.so.0 a8085000-a8088000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 a8088000-a80a4000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8317 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 a80a4000-a80a5000 r--p 0001b000 03:00 8317 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 a80a5000-a80a6000 rw-p 0001c000 03:00 8317 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 afaf5000-afb0a000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status which will you give the current stack usage in kb.

CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0 nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0 Stack usage: 12 kB I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main process.

2009-09-23getrusage: fill ru_maxrss valueJiri Pirko
Make ->ru_maxrss value in struct rusage filled accordingly to rss hiwater mark. This struct is filled as a parameter to getrusage syscall. ->ru_maxrss value is set to KBs which is the way it is done in BSD systems. /usr/bin/time (gnu time) application converts ->ru_maxrss to KBs which seems to be incorrect behavior. Maintainer of this util was notified by me with the patch which corrects it and cc'ed. To make this happen we extend struct signal_struct by two fields. The first one is ->maxrss which we use to store rss hiwater of the task. The second one is ->cmaxrss which we use to store highest rss hiwater of all task childs. These values are used in k_getrusage() to actually fill ->ru_maxrss. k_getrusage() uses current rss hiwater value directly if mm struct exists. Note: exec() clear mm->hiwater_rss, but doesn't clear sig->maxrss. it is intetionally behavior. *BSD getrusage have exec() inheriting. test programs ======================================================== getrusage.c =========== #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <sys/resource.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include "common.h" #define err(str) perror(str), exit(1) int main(int argc, char** argv) { int status; printf("allocate 100MB\n"); consume(100); printf("testcase1: fork inherit? \n"); printf(" expect: initial.self ~= child.self\n"); show_rusage("initial"); if (__fork()) { wait(&status); } else { show_rusage("fork child"); _exit(0); } printf("\n"); printf("testcase2: fork inherit?

2009-09-21perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance EventsIngo Molnar
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

2009-09-05exec: do not sleep in TASK_TRACED under ->cred_guard_mutexOleg Nesterov
Tom Horsley reports that his debugger hangs when it tries to read /proc/pid_of_tracee/maps, this happens since "mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec" 04b836cbf19e885f8366bccb2e4b0474346c02d commit in 2.6.31. But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC. The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(), another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the tracee resumes. With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and we do not hold it throughout, instead: - introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred. - install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(), and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop(). or, if exec fails, free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

2009-05-02alpha: binfmt_aout fixIvan Kokshaysky
This fixes the problem introduced by commit 3bfacef412 (get rid of special-casing the /sbin/loader on alpha): osf/1 ecoff binary segfaults when binfmt_aout built as module. That happens because aout binary handler gets on the top of the binfmt list due to late registration, and kernel attempts to execute the binary without preparatory work that must be done by binfmt_loader. Fixed by changing the registration order of the default binfmt handlers using list_add_tail() and introducing insert_binfmt() function which places new handler on the top of the binfmt list. This might be generally useful for installing arch-specific frontends for default handlers or just for overriding them.

2009-04-24do_execve() must not clear fs->in_exec if it was set by another threadOleg Nesterov
If do_execve() fails after check_unsafe_exec(), it clears fs->in_exec unconditionally. This is wrong if we race with our sub-thread which also does do_execve: Two threads T1 and T2 and another process P, all share the same ->fs. T1 starts do_execve(BAD_FILE). It calls check_unsafe_exec(), since ->fs is shared, we set LSM_UNSAFE but not ->in_exec. P exits and decrements fs->users. T2 starts do_execve(), calls check_unsafe_exec(), now ->fs is not shared, we set fs->in_exec. T1 continues, open_exec(BAD_FILE) fails, we clear ->in_exec and return to the user-space. T1 does clone(CLONE_FS /* without CLONE_THREAD */). T2 continues without LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE while ->fs is shared with another process. Change check_unsafe_exec() to return res = 1 if we set ->in_exec, and change do_execve() to clear ->in_exec depending on res. When do_execve() suceeds, it is safe to clear ->in_exec unconditionally. It can be set only if we don't share ->fs with another process, and since we already killed all sub-threads either ->in_exec == 0 or we are the only user of this ->fs. Also, we do not need fs->lock to clear fs->in_exec.

2009-03-28fix setuid sometimes doesn'tHugh Dickins
Joe Malicki reports that setuid sometimes doesn't: very rarely, a setuid root program does not get root euid; and, by the way, they have a health check running lsof every few minutes. Right, check_unsafe_exec() notes whether the files_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>/fd and /proc/<pid>/fdinfo lookups make transient use of get_files_struct(), which also raises that sharing count. There's a rather simple fix for this: exec's check on files->count has been redundant ever since 2.6.1 made it unshare_files() (except while compat_do_execve() omitted to do so) - just remove that check. [Note to -stable: this patch will not apply before 2.6.29: earlier releases should just remove the files->count line from unsafe_exec().] Reported-by: Joe Malicki <jmalicki@metacarta.com> Narrowed-down-by: Michael Itz <mitz@metacarta.com> Tested-by: Joe Malicki <jmalicki@metacarta.com> Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-02-07CRED: Fix SUID exec regressionDavid Howells
The patch: commit a6f76f23d297f70e2a6b3ec607f7aeeea9e37e8d CRED: Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials moved the place in which the 'safeness' of a SUID/SGID exec was performed to before de_thread() was called. This means that LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE is now calculated incorrectly. This flag is set if any of the usage counts for fs_struct, files_struct and sighand_struct are greater than 1 at the time the determination is made. All of which are true for threads created by the pthread library. However, since we wish to make the security calculation before irrevocably damaging the process so that we can return it an error code in the case where we decide we want to reject the exec request on this basis, we have to make the determination before calling de_thread(). So, instead, we count up the number of threads (CLONE_THREAD) that are sharing our fs_struct (CLONE_FS), files_struct (CLONE_FILES) and sighand_structs (CLONE_SIGHAND/CLONE_THREAD) with us. These will be killed by de_thread() and so can be discounted by check_unsafe_exec(). We do have to be careful because CLONE_THREAD does not imply FS or FILES. We _assume_ that there will be no extra references to these structs held by the threads we're going to kill. This can be tested with the attached pair of programs. Build the two programs using the Makefile supplied, and run ./test1 as a non-root user. If successful, you should see something like: [dhowells@andromeda tmp]$ ./test1 --TEST1-- uid=4043, euid=4043 suid=4043 exec ./test2 --TEST2-- uid=4043, euid=0 suid=0 SUCCESS - Correct effective user ID and if unsuccessful, something like: [dhowells@andromeda tmp]$ ./test1 --TEST1-- uid=4043, euid=4043 suid=4043 exec ./test2 --TEST2-- uid=4043, euid=4043 suid=4043 ERROR - Incorrect effective user ID!
