      ptrace: implement PTRACE_LISTEN · 544b2c91
      Tejun Heo authored
      The previous patch implemented async notification for ptrace but it
      only worked while trace is running.  This patch introduces
      PTRACE_LISTEN which is suggested by Oleg Nestrov.
      
      It's allowed iff tracee is in STOP trap and puts tracee into
      quasi-running state - tracee never really runs but wait(2) and
      ptrace(2) consider it to be running.  While ptracer is listening,
      tracee is allowed to re-enter STOP to notify an async event.
      Listening state is cleared on the first notification.  Ptracer can
      also clear it by issuing INTERRUPT - tracee will re-trap into STOP
      with listening state cleared.
      
      This allows ptracer to monitor group stop state without running tracee
      - use INTERRUPT to put tracee into STOP trap, issue LISTEN and then
      wait(2) to wait for the next group stop event.  When it happens,
      PTRACE_GETSIGINFO provides information to determine the current state.
      
      Test program follows.
      
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE		0x4206
        #define PTRACE_INTERRUPT	0x4207
        #define PTRACE_LISTEN		0x4208
      
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL	0x80000000
      
        static const struct timespec ts1s = { .tv_sec = 1 };
      
        int main(int argc, char **argv)
        {
      	  pid_t tracee, tracer;
      	  int i;
      
      	  tracee = fork();
      	  if (!tracee)
      		  while (1)
      			  pause();
      
      	  tracer = fork();
      	  if (!tracer) {
      		  siginfo_t si;
      
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL,
      			 (void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL);
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      	  repeat:
      		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED);
      
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_GETSIGINFO, tracee, NULL, &si);
      		  if (!si.si_code) {
      			  printf("tracer: SIG %d\n", si.si_signo);
      			  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL,
      				 (void *)(unsigned long)si.si_signo);
      			  goto repeat;
      		  }
      		  printf("tracer: stopped=%d signo=%d\n",
      			 si.si_signo != SIGTRAP, si.si_signo);
      		  if (si.si_signo != SIGTRAP)
      			  ptrace(PTRACE_LISTEN, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      		  else
      			  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      		  goto repeat;
      	  }
      
      	  for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
      		  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      		  printf("mother: SIGSTOP\n");
      		  kill(tracee, SIGSTOP);
      		  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      		  printf("mother: SIGCONT\n");
      		  kill(tracee, SIGCONT);
      	  }
      	  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      
      	  kill(tracer, SIGKILL);
      	  kill(tracee, SIGKILL);
      	  return 0;
        }
      
      This is identical to the program to test TRAP_NOTIFY except that
      tracee is PTRACE_LISTEN'd instead of PTRACE_CONT'd when group stopped.
      This allows ptracer to monitor when group stop ends without running
      tracee.

      ptrace: implement TRAP_NOTIFY and use it for group stop events · fb1d910c
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently there's no way for ptracer to find out whether group stop
      finished other than polling with INTERRUPT - GETSIGINFO - CONT
      sequence.  This patch implements group stop notification for ptracer
      using STOP traps.
      
      When group stop state of a seized tracee changes, JOBCTL_TRAP_NOTIFY
      is set, which schedules a STOP trap which is sticky - it isn't cleared
      by other traps and at least one STOP trap will happen eventually.
      STOP trap is synchronization point for event notification and the
      tracer can determine the current group stop state by looking at the
      signal number portion of exit code (si_status from waitid(2) or
      si_code from PTRACE_GETSIGINFO).
      
      Notifications are generated both on start and end of group stops but,
      because group stop participation always happens before STOP trap, this
      doesn't cause an extra trap while tracee is participating in group
      stop.  The symmetry will be useful later.
      
      Note that this notification works iff tracee is not trapped.
      Currently there is no way to be notified of group stop state changes
      while tracee is trapped.  This will be addressed by a later patch.
      
      An example program follows.
      
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE		0x4206
        #define PTRACE_INTERRUPT	0x4207
      
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL	0x80000000
      
        static const struct timespec ts1s = { .tv_sec = 1 };
      
        int main(int argc, char **argv)
        {
      	  pid_t tracee, tracer;
      	  int i;
      
      	  tracee = fork();
      	  if (!tracee)
      		  while (1)
      			  pause();
      
      	  tracer = fork();
      	  if (!tracer) {
      		  siginfo_t si;
      
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL,
      			 (void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL);
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      	  repeat:
      		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED);
      
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_GETSIGINFO, tracee, NULL, &si);
      		  if (!si.si_code) {
      			  printf("tracer: SIG %d\n", si.si_signo);
      			  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL,
      				 (void *)(unsigned long)si.si_signo);
      			  goto repeat;
      		  }
      		  printf("tracer: stopped=%d signo=%d\n",
      			 si.si_signo != SIGTRAP, si.si_signo);
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      		  goto repeat;
      	  }
      
      	  for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
      		  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      		  printf("mother: SIGSTOP\n");
      		  kill(tracee, SIGSTOP);
      		  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      		  printf("mother: SIGCONT\n");
      		  kill(tracee, SIGCONT);
      	  }
      	  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      
      	  kill(tracer, SIGKILL);
      	  kill(tracee, SIGKILL);
      	  return 0;
        }
      
      In the above program, tracer keeps tracee running and gets
      notification of each group stop state changes.
      
        # ./test-notify
        tracer: stopped=0 signo=5
        mother: SIGSTOP
        tracer: SIG 19

      ptrace: implement PTRACE_INTERRUPT · fca26f26
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, there's no way to trap a running ptracee short of sending a
      signal which has various side effects.  This patch implements
      PTRACE_INTERRUPT which traps ptracee without any signal or job control
      related side effect.
      
      The implementation is almost trivial.  It uses the group stop trap -
      SIGTRAP | PTRACE_EVENT_STOP << 8.  A new trap flag
      JOBCTL_TRAP_INTERRUPT is added, which is set on PTRACE_INTERRUPT and
      cleared when any trap happens.  As INTERRUPT should be useable
      regardless of the current state of tracee, task_is_traced() test in
      ptrace_check_attach() is skipped for INTERRUPT.
      
      PTRACE_INTERRUPT is available iff tracee is attached with
      PTRACE_SEIZE.
      
      Test program follows.
      
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE		0x4206
        #define PTRACE_INTERRUPT	0x4207
      
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL	0x80000000
      
        static const struct timespec ts100ms = { .tv_nsec = 100000000 };
        static const struct timespec ts1s = { .tv_sec = 1 };
        static const struct timespec ts3s = { .tv_sec = 3 };
      
        int main(int argc, char **argv)
        {
      	  pid_t tracee;
      
      	  tracee = fork();
      	  if (tracee == 0) {
      		  nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
      		  while (1) {
      			  printf("tracee: alive pid=%d\n", getpid());
      			  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      		  }
      	  }
      
      	  if (argc > 1)
      		  kill(tracee, SIGSTOP);
      
      	  nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
      
      	  ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL,
      		 (void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL);
      	  if (argc > 1) {
      		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED);
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      	  }
      	  nanosleep(&ts3s, NULL);
      
      	  printf("tracer: INTERRUPT and DETACH\n");
      	  ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      	  waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED);
      	  ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      	  nanosleep(&ts3s, NULL);
      
      	  printf("tracer: exiting\n");
      	  kill(tracee, SIGKILL);
      	  return 0;
        }
      
      When called without argument, tracee is seized from running state,
      interrupted and then detached back to running state.
      
        # ./test-interrupt
        tracee: alive pid=4546
        tracee: alive pid=4546
        tracee: alive pid=4546

        tracee: alive pid=4546
        tracee: alive pid=4546
        tracee: alive pid=4546
        tracer: exiting
      
      When called with argument, tracee is seized from stopped state,
      continued, interrupted and then detached back to stopped state.
      
        # ./test-interrupt  1
        tracee: alive pid=4548

        tracee: alive pid=4548
        tracer: INTERRUPT and DETACH
        tracer: exiting
      
      Before PTRACE_INTERRUPT, once the tracee was running, there was no way
      to trap tracee and do PTRACE_DETACH without causing side effect.
      
      -v2: Updated to use task_set_jobctl_pending() so that it doesn't end
           up scheduling TRAP_STOP if child is dying which may make the

      ptrace: implement PTRACE_SEIZE · 3544d72a
      Tejun Heo authored
      PTRACE_ATTACH implicitly issues SIGSTOP on attach which has side
      effects on tracee signal and job control states.  This patch
      implements a new ptrace request PTRACE_SEIZE which attaches a tracee
      without trapping it or affecting its signal and job control states.
      
      The usage is the same with PTRACE_ATTACH but it takes PTRACE_SEIZE_*
      flags in @data.  Currently, the only defined flag is
      PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL which is a temporary flag to enable PTRACE_SEIZE.
      PTRACE_SEIZE will change ptrace behaviors outside of attach itself.
      The changes will be implemented gradually and the DEVEL flag is to
      prevent programs which expect full SEIZE behavior from using it before
      all the behavior modifications are complete while allowing unit
      testing.  The flag will be removed once SEIZE behaviors are completely
      implemented.
      
      * PTRACE_SEIZE, unlike ATTACH, doesn't force tracee to trap.  After
        attaching tracee continues to run unless a trap condition occurs.
      
      * PTRACE_SEIZE doesn't affect signal or group stop state.
      
      * If PTRACE_SEIZE'd, group stop uses PTRACE_EVENT_STOP trap which uses
        exit_code of (signr | PTRACE_EVENT_STOP << 8) where signr is one of
        the stopping signals if group stop is in effect or SIGTRAP
        otherwise, and returns usual trap siginfo on PTRACE_GETSIGINFO
        instead of NULL.
      
      Seizing sets PT_SEIZED in ->ptrace of the tracee.  This flag will be
      used to determine whether new SEIZE behaviors should be enabled.
      
      Test program follows.
      
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE		0x4206
        #define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL	0x80000000
      
        static const struct timespec ts100ms = { .tv_nsec = 100000000 };
        static const struct timespec ts1s = { .tv_sec = 1 };
        static const struct timespec ts3s = { .tv_sec = 3 };
      
        int main(int argc, char **argv)
        {
      	  pid_t tracee;
      
      	  tracee = fork();
      	  if (tracee == 0) {
      		  nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
      		  while (1) {
      			  printf("tracee: alive\n");
      			  nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
      		  }
      	  }
      
      	  if (argc > 1)
      		  kill(tracee, SIGSTOP);
      
      	  nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
      
      	  ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL,
      		 (void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL);
      	  if (argc > 1) {
      		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED);
      		  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
      	  }
      	  nanosleep(&ts3s, NULL);
      	  printf("tracer: exiting\n");
      	  return 0;
        }
      
      When the above program is called w/o argument, tracee is seized while
      running and remains running.  When tracer exits, tracee continues to
      run and print out messages.
      
        # ./test-seize-simple

        tracee: alive
        tracee: alive
      
      When called with an argument, tracee is seized from stopped state and
      continued, and returns to stopped state when tracer exits.
      
        # ./test-seize

      job control: introduce JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP and use it for group stop trap · 73ddff2b
      Tejun Heo authored
      do_signal_stop() implemented both normal group stop and trap for group
      stop while ptraced.  This approach has been enough but scheduled
      changes require trap mechanism which can be used in more generic
      manner and using group stop trap for generic trap site simplifies both
      userland visible interface and implementation.
      
      This patch adds a new jobctl flag - JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP.  When set, it
      triggers a trap site, which behaves like group stop trap, in
      get_signal_to_deliver() after checking for pending signals.  While
      ptraced, do_signal_stop() doesn't stop itself.  It initiates group
      stop if requested and schedules JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP and returns.  The
      caller - get_signal_to_deliver() - is responsible for checking whether
      TRAP_STOP is pending afterwards and handling it.
      
      ptrace_attach() is updated to use JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP instead of
      JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and __ptrace_unlink() to clear all pending trap
      bits and TRAPPING so that TRAP_STOP and future trap bits don't linger
      after detach.
      
      While at it, add proper function comment to do_signal_stop() and make
      it return bool.
      
      -v2: __ptrace_unlink() updated to clear JOBCTL_TRAP_MASK and TRAPPING
           instead of JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK.  This avoids accidentally
           clearing JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME.  Spotted by Oleg.
      
      -v3: do_signal_stop() updated to return %false without dropping
           siglock while ptraced and TRAP_STOP check moved inside for(;;)
           loop after group stop participation.  This avoids unnecessary
           relocking and also will help avoiding unnecessary traps by
           consuming group stop before handling pending traps.
      
      -v4: Jobctl trap handling moved into a separate function -
           do_jobctl_trap().

      ptrace: use bit_waitqueue for TRAPPING instead of wait_chldexit · 62c124ff
      Tejun Heo authored
      ptracer->signal->wait_chldexit was used to wait for TRAPPING; however,
      ->wait_chldexit was already complicated with waker-side filtering
      without adding TRAPPING wait on top of it.  Also, it unnecessarily
      made TRAPPING clearing depend on the current ptrace relationship - if
      the ptracee is detached, wakeup is lost.
      
      There is no reason to use signal->wait_chldexit here.  We're just
      waiting for JOBCTL_TRAPPING bit to clear and given the relatively
      infrequent use of ptrace, bit_waitqueue can serve it perfectly.
      
      This patch makes JOBCTL_TRAPPING wait use bit_waitqueue instead of
      signal->wait_chldexit.
      
      -v2: Use JOBCTL_*_BIT macros instead of ilog2() as suggested by Linus.

      job control: introduce task_set_jobctl_pending() · 7dd3db54
      Tejun Heo authored
      task->jobctl currently hosts JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and will host TRAP
      pending bits too.  Setting pending conditions on a dying task may make
      the task unkillable.  Currently, each setting site is responsible for
      checking for the condition but with to-be-added job control traps this
      becomes too fragile.
      
      This patch adds task_set_jobctl_pending() which should be used when
      setting task->jobctl bits to schedule a stop or trap.  The function
      performs the followings to ease setting pending bits.
      
      * Sanity checks.
      
      * If fatal signal is pending or PF_EXITING is set, no bit is set.
      
      * STOP_SIGMASK is automatically cleared if new value is being set.
      
      do_signal_stop() and ptrace_attach() are updated to use
      task_set_jobctl_pending() instead of setting STOP_PENDING explicitly.
      The surrounding structures around setting are changed to fit
      task_set_jobctl_pending() better but there should be no userland
      visible behavior difference.

      job control: make task_clear_jobctl_pending() clear TRAPPING automatically · 6dfca329
      Tejun Heo authored
      JOBCTL_TRAPPING indicates that ptracer is waiting for tracee to
      (re)transit into TRACED.  task_clear_jobctl_pending() must be called
      when either tracee enters TRACED or the transition is cancelled for
      some reason.  The former is achieved by explicitly calling
      task_clear_jobctl_pending() in ptrace_stop() and the latter by calling
      it at the end of do_signal_stop().
      
      Calling task_clear_jobctl_trapping() at the end of do_signal_stop()
      limits the scope TRAPPING can be used and is fragile in that seemingly
      unrelated changes to tracee's control flow can lead to stuck TRAPPING.
      
      We already have task_clear_jobctl_pending() calls on those cancelling
      events to clear JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING.  Cancellations can be handled by
      making those call sites use JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK instead and updating
      task_clear_jobctl_pending() such that task_clear_jobctl_trapping() is
      called automatically if no stop/trap is pending.
      
      This patch makes the above changes and removes the fallback
      task_clear_jobctl_trapping() call from do_signal_stop().

      job control: introduce JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK and task_clear_jobctl_pending() · 3759a0d9
      Tejun Heo authored
      This patch introduces JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK and replaces
      task_clear_jobctl_stop_pending() with task_clear_jobctl_pending()
      which takes an extra @mask argument.
      
      JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK is currently equal to JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING but
      future patches will add more bits.  recalc_sigpending_tsk() is updated
      to use JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK instead.
      
      task_clear_jobctl_pending() takes @mask which in subset of
      JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK and clears the relevant jobctl bits.  If
      JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING is set, other STOP bits are cleared together.  All
      task_clear_jobctl_stop_pending() users are updated to call
      task_clear_jobctl_pending() with JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING which is
      functionally identical to task_clear_jobctl_stop_pending().
      
      This patch doesn't cause any functional change.

      ptrace: relocate set_current_state(TASK_TRACED) in ptrace_stop() · 81be24b8
      Tejun Heo authored
      In ptrace_stop(), after arch hook is done, the task state and jobctl
      bits are updated while holding siglock.  The ordering requirement
      there is that TASK_TRACED is set before JOBCTL_TRAPPING is cleared to
      prevent ptracer waiting on TRAPPING doesn't end up waking up TRACED is
      actually set and sees TASK_RUNNING in wait(2).
      
      Move set_current_state(TASK_TRACED) to the top of the block and
      reorganize comments.  This makes the ordering more obvious
      (TASK_TRACED before other updates) and helps future updates to group
      stop participation.
      
      This patch doesn't cause any functional change.

      job control: rename signal->group_stop and flags to jobctl and update them · a8f072c1
      Tejun Heo authored
      signal->group_stop currently hosts mostly group stop related flags;
      however, it's gonna be used for wider purposes and the GROUP_STOP_
      flag prefix becomes confusing.  Rename signal->group_stop to
      signal->jobctl and rename all GROUP_STOP_* flags to JOBCTL_*.
      
      Bit position macros JOBCTL_*_BIT are defined and JOBCTL_* flags are
      defined in terms of them to allow using bitops later.
      
      While at it, reassign JOBCTL_TRAPPING to bit 22 to better accomodate
      future additions.
      
      This doesn't cause any functional change.
      
      -v2: JOBCTL_*_BIT macros added as suggested by Linus.
