During development of c/r we've noticed that in case if we need to support user namespaces we face a problem with capabilities in prctl(PR_SET_MM, ...) call, in particular once new user namespace is created capable(CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) no longer passes. A approach is to eliminate CAP_SYS_RESOURCE check but pass all new values in one bundle, which would allow the kernel to make more intensive test for sanity of values and same time allow us to support checkpoint/restore of user namespaces. Thus a new command PR_SET_MM_MAP introduced. It takes a pointer of prctl_mm_map structure which carries all the members to be updated. prctl(PR_SET_MM, PR_SET_MM_MAP, struct prctl_mm_map *, size) struct prctl_mm_map { __u64 start_code; __u64 end_code; __u64 start_data; __u64 end_data; __u64 start_brk; __u64 brk; __u64 start_stack; __u64 arg_start; __u64 arg_end; __u64 env_start; __u64 env_end; __u64 *auxv; __u32 auxv_size; __u32 exe_fd; }; All members except @exe_fd correspond ones of struct mm_struct. To figure out which available values these members may take here are meanings of the members. - start_code, end_code: represent bounds of executable code area - start_data, end_data: represent bounds of data area - start_brk, brk: used to calculate bounds for brk() syscall - start_stack: used when accounting space needed for command line arguments, environment and shmat() syscall - arg_start, arg_end, env_start, env_end: represent memory area supplied for command line arguments and environment variables - auxv, auxv_size: carries auxiliary vector, Elf format specifics - exe_fd: file descriptor number for executable link (/proc/self/exe) Thus we apply the following requirements to the values 1) Any member except @auxv, @auxv_size, @exe_fd is rather an address in user space thus it must be laying inside [mmap_min_addr, mmap_max_addr) interval. 2) While @[start|end]_code and @[start|end]_data may point to an nonexisting VMAs (say a program maps own new .text and .data segments during execution) the rest of members should belong to VMA which must exist. 3) Addresses must be ordered, ie @start_ member must not be greater or equal to appropriate @end_ member. 4) As in regular Elf loading procedure we require that @start_brk and @brk be greater than @end_data. 5) If RLIMIT_DATA rlimit is set to non-infinity new values should not exceed existing limit. Same applies to RLIMIT_STACK. 6) Auxiliary vector size must not exceed existing one (which is predefined as AT_VECTOR_SIZE and depends on architecture). 7) File descriptor passed in @exe_file should be pointing to executable file (because we use existing prctl_set_mm_exe_file_locked helper it ensures that the file we are going to use as exe link has all required permission granted). Now about where these members are involved inside kernel code: - @start_code and @end_code are used in /proc/$pid/[stat|statm] output; - @start_data and @end_data are used in /proc/$pid/[stat|statm] output, also they are considered if there enough space for brk() syscall result if RLIMIT_DATA is set; - @start_brk shown in /proc/$pid/stat output and accounted in brk() syscall if RLIMIT_DATA is set; also this member is tested to find a symbolic name of mmap event for perf system (we choose if event is generated for "heap" area); one more aplication is selinux -- we test if a process has PROCESS__EXECHEAP permission if trying to make heap area being executable with mprotect() syscall; - @brk is a current value for brk() syscall which lays inside heap area, it's shown in /proc/$pid/stat. When syscall brk() succesfully provides new memory area to a user space upon brk() completion the mm::brk is updated to carry new value; Both @start_brk and @brk are actively used in /proc/$pid/maps and /proc/$pid/smaps output to find a symbolic name "heap" for VMA being scanned; - @start_stack is printed out in /proc/$pid/stat and used to find a symbolic name "stack" for task and threads in /proc/$pid/maps and /proc/$pid/smaps output, and as the same as with @start_brk -- perf system uses it for event naming. Also kernel treat this member as a start address of where to map vDSO pages and to check if there is enough space for shmat() syscall; - @arg_start, @arg_end, @env_start and @env_end are printed out in /proc/$pid/stat. Another access to the data these members represent is to read /proc/$pid/environ or /proc/$pid/cmdline. Any attempt to read these areas kernel tests with access_process_vm helper so a user must have enough rights for this action; - @auxv and @auxv_size may be read from /proc/$pid/auxv. Strictly speaking kernel doesn't care much about which exactly data is sitting there because it is solely for userspace; - @exe_fd is referred from /proc/$pid/exe and when generating coredump. We uses prctl_set_mm_exe_file_locked helper to update this member, so exe-file link modification remains one-shot action. Still note that updating exe-file link now doesn't require sys-resource capability anymore, after all there is no much profit in preventing setup own file link (there are a number of ways to execute own code -- ptrace, ld-preload, so that the only reliable way to find which exactly code is executed is to inspect running program memory). Still we require the caller to be at least user-namespace root user. I believe the old interface should be deprecated and ripped off in a couple of kernel releases if no one against. To test if new interface is implemented in the kernel one can pass PR_SET_MM_MAP_SIZE opcode and the kernel returns the size of currently supported struct prctl_mm_map.
