Al Viro 754421c8ca HAVE_RESTORE_SIGMASK is defined on all architectures now
Everyone either defines it in arch thread_info.h or has TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
and picks default set_restore_sigmask() in linux/thread_info.h.  Kill the
ifdefs, slap #error in linux/thread_info.h to catch breakage when new ones
get merged.

Eric W. Biederman 3208450488 pidns: use task_active_pid_ns in do_notify_parent
Using task_active_pid_ns is more robust because it works even after we
have called exit_namespaces.  This change allows us to have parent
processes that are zombies.  Normally a zombie parent processes is crazy
and the last thing you would want to have but in the case of not letting
the init process of a pid namespace be reaped until all of it's children
are dead and reaped a zombie parent process is exactly what we want.

Linus Torvalds 654443e20d Merge branch 'perf-uprobes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull user-space probe instrumentation from Ingo Molnar:
 "The uprobes code originates from SystemTap and has been used for years
  in Fedora and RHEL kernels.  This version is much rewritten, reviews
  from PeterZ, Oleg and myself shaped the end result.

  This tree includes uprobes support in 'perf probe' - but SystemTap
  (and other tools) can take advantage of user probe points as well.

  Sample usage of uprobes via perf, for example to profile malloc()
  calls without modifying user-space binaries.

  First boot a new kernel with CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT=y enabled.

  If you don't know which function you want to probe you can pick one
  from 'perf top' or can get a list all functions that can be probed
  within libc (binaries can be specified as well):

	$ perf probe -F -x /lib/libc.so.6

  To probe libc's malloc():

	$ perf probe -x /lib64/libc.so.6 malloc
	Added new event:
	probe_libc:malloc    (on 0x7eac0)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

  Make use of it to create a call graph (as the flat profile is going to
  look very boring):

	$ perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -gR make
	[ perf record: Woken up 173 times to write data ]
	[ perf record: Captured and wrote 44.190 MB perf.data (~1930712

  The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe
  points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of
  libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map
  that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address.
  vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content.  The probe points are
  kept in an rbtree.

  If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address
  then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular
  perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer.

  Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a
  dynamic callback list of event consumers.

  The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the
  original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture
  specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers.
  The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of
  entries (which limits probe execution parallelism).

  The API: uprobes are installed/removed via
  /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to
  align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate
  to it.

  Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed
  by setting perf_paranoid to -1.

  You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and
  regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."

Fix up trivial conflicts in mm/memory.c due to previous cleanup of
unmap_single_vma().

Linus Torvalds 644473e9c6 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace enhancements from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a course correction for the user namespace, so that we can
  reach an inexpensive, maintainable, and reasonably complete
  implementation.

  Highlights:
   - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and
     code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe.

   - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the
     config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable
     user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission
     checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe.

   - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial
     user namespace before they are processed.  Removing the need to add
     an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared
     uids remains the same.

   - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or
     better than it is today.

   - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or
     operationally with the user namespace enabled.

   - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1
     billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code
     enabled.  This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to
     164ns per stat operation).

   - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value.
     Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially
     anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause
     entertaining failures in userspace.

   - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails.
     I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I
     could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and
     handle the case where setuid fails.

   - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which
     we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid.  The LFS
     experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be
     better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I
     can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we
     can't map.

   - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it
     safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.

  My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core
  kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

Will Drewry a0727e8ce5 signal, x86: add SIGSYS info and make it synchronous.
This change enables SIGSYS, defines _sigfields._sigsys, and adds
x86 (compat) arch support.  _sigsys defines fields which allow
a signal handler to receive the triggering system call number,
the relevant AUDIT_ARCH_* value for that number, and the address
of the callsite.

SIGSYS is added to the SYNCHRONOUS_MASK because it is desirable for it
to have setup_frame() called for it. The goal is to ensure that
ucontext_t reflects the machine state from the time-of-syscall and not
from another signal handler.

The first consumer of SIGSYS would be seccomp filter.  In particular,
a filter program could specify a new return value, SECCOMP_RET_TRAP,
which would result in the system call being denied and the calling
thread signaled.  This also means that implementing arch-specific
support can be dependent upon HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER.

Merge tag 'split-asm_system_h-for-linus-20120328' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-asm_system

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
 "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
  separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
  dependencies.

  I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
  and made sure that they don't break.

  The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
  dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
  optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().

  This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
  asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.

  The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h.  It holds a number of
  low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
  memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
  aren't used in many places (eg.  switch_to()).

  These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:

    (1) asm/barrier.h

        Move memory barriers here.  This already done for MIPS and Alpha.

    (2) asm/switch_to.h

        Move switch_to() and related stuff here.

    (3) asm/exec.h

        Move arch_align_stack() here.  Other process execution related bits
        could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.

    (4) asm/cmpxchg.h

        Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
        frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().

    (5) asm/bug.h

        Move die() and related bits.

    (6) asm/auxvec.h

        Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.

  Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that.  We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

Oleg Nesterov 629d362b99 signal: give SEND_SIG_FORCED more power to beat SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE
force_sig_info() and friends have the special semantics for synchronous
signals, this interface should not be used if the target is not current.
And it needs the fixes, in particular the clearing of SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE
is not exactly right.

However there are callers which have to use force_ exactly because it
clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE and thus it can kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks,
although this is almost always is wrong by various reasons.

With this patch SEND_SIG_FORCED ignores SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, like we do if
the signal comes from the ancestor namespace.

This makes the naming in prepare_signal() paths insane, fixed by the
next cleanup.

Note: this only affects SIGKILL/SIGSTOP, but this is enough for
force_sig() abusers.

Oleg Nesterov b6e238dcee exit_signal: fix the "parent has changed security domain" logic
exit_notify() changes ->exit_signal if the parent already did exec.
This doesn't really work, we are not going to send the signal now
if there is another live thread or the exiting task is traced. The
parent can exec before the last dies or the tracer detaches.

Move this check into do_notify_parent() which actually sends the
signal.

The user-visible change is that we do not change ->exit_signal,
and thus the exiting task is still "clone children" for
do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE). Hopefully this is fine, the
current logic is racy anyway.

Srikar Dronamraju 0326f5a94d uprobes/core: Handle breakpoint and singlestep exceptions
Uprobes uses exception notifiers to get to know if a thread hit
a breakpoint or a singlestep exception.

When a thread hits a uprobe or is singlestepping post a uprobe
hit, the uprobe exception notifier sets its TIF_UPROBE bit,
which will then be checked on its return to userspace path
(do_notify_resume() ->uprobe_notify_resume()), where the
consumers handlers are run (in task context) based on the
defined filters.

Uprobe hits are thread specific and hence we need to maintain
information about if a task hit a uprobe, what uprobe was hit,
the slot where the original instruction was copied for xol so
that it can be singlestepped with appropriate fixups.

In some cases, special care is needed for instructions that are
executed out of line (xol). These are architecture specific
artefacts, such as handling RIP relative instructions on x86_64.

Since the instruction at which the uprobe was inserted is
executed out of line, architecture specific fixups are added so
that the thread continues normal execution in the presence of a
uprobe.

Postpone the signals until we execute the probed insn.
post_xol() path does a recalc_sigpending() before return to
user-mode, this ensures the signal can't be lost.

Uprobes relies on DIE_DEBUG notification to notify if a
singlestep is complete.

Adds x86 specific uprobe exception notifiers and appropriate
hooks needed to determine a uprobe hit and subsequent post
processing.

Add requisite x86 fixups for xol for uprobes. Specific cases
needing fixups include relative jumps (x86_64), calls, etc.

Where possible, we check and skip singlestepping the
breakpointed instructions. For now we skip single byte as well
as few multibyte nop instructions. However this can be extended
to other instructions too.

Credits to Oleg Nesterov for suggestions/patches related to
signal, breakpoint, singlestep handling code.

The patch moves trace_signal_generate() at the end of __send_signal()
and adds the 2 additional arguments.

This also allows us to kill trace_signal_overflow_fail/lose_info, we
can simply add the appropriate TRACE_SIGNAL_ "result" codes.

Serge E. Hallyn 6b550f9495 user namespace: make signal.c respect user namespaces
ipc/mqueue.c: for __SI_MESQ, convert the uid being sent to recipient's
user namespace. (new, thanks Oleg)

__send_signal: convert current's uid to the recipient's user namespace
for any siginfo which is not SI_FROMKERNEL (patch from Oleg, thanks
again :)

do_notify_parent and do_notify_parent_cldstop: map task's uid to parent's
user namespace

ptrace_signal maps parent's uid into current's user namespace before
including in signal to current.  IIUC Oleg has argued that this shouldn't
matter as the debugger will play with it, but it seems like not converting
the value currently being set is misleading.

Changelog:
Sep 20: Inspired by Oleg's suggestion, define map_cred_ns() helper to
	simplify callers and help make clear what we are translating
        (which uid into which namespace).  Passing the target task would
	make callers even easier to read, but we pass in user_ns because
	current_user_ns() != task_cred_xxx(current, user_ns).
Sep 20: As recommended by Oleg, also put task_pid_vnr() under rcu_read_lock
	in ptrace_signal().
Sep 23: In send_signal(), detect when (user) signal is coming from an
	ancestor or unrelated user namespace.  Pass that on to __send_signal,
	which sets si_uid to 0 or overflowuid if needed.
Oct 12: Base on Oleg's fixup_uid() patch.  On top of that, handle all
	SI_FROMKERNEL cases at callers, because we can't assume sender is
	current in those cases.
Nov 10: (mhelsley) rename fixup_uid to more meaningful usern_fixup_signal_uid

Oleg Nesterov 8a88951b58 ptrace: ensure JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK is not zero after detach
This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this
area.

1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the
   stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is
   not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running
   thread which can initiate another group-stop.

   Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace).

2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached
   and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING
   but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr)
   in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches.

   Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report.

   Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from
   current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the
   possible similar problems.

Tejun Heo 77e4ef99d1 threadgroup: extend threadgroup_lock() to cover exit and exec
threadgroup_lock() protected only protected against new addition to
the threadgroup, which was inherently somewhat incomplete and
problematic for its only user cgroup.  On-going migration could race
against exec and exit leading to interesting problems - the symmetry
between various attach methods, task exiting during method execution,
->exit() racing against attach methods, migrating task switching basic
properties during exec and so on.

This patch extends threadgroup_lock() such that it protects against
all three threadgroup altering operations - fork, exit and exec.  For
exit, threadgroup_change_begin/end() calls are added to exit_signals
around assertion of PF_EXITING.  For exec, threadgroup_[un]lock() are
updated to also grab and release cred_guard_mutex.

With this change, threadgroup_lock() guarantees that the target
threadgroup will remain stable - no new task will be added, no new
PF_EXITING will be set and exec won't happen.

The next patch will update cgroup so that it can take full advantage
of this change.

-v2: beefed up comment as suggested by Frederic.

-v3: narrowed scope of protection in exit path as suggested by
     Frederic.

Oleg Nesterov 8a35241803 ptrace: fix ptrace_signal() && STOP_DEQUEUED interaction
Simple test-case,

	int main(void)
	{
		int pid, status;

		pid = fork();
		if (!pid) {
			pause();
			assert(0);
			return 0x23;
		}

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0,0) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP);

		kill(pid, SIGCONT);	// <--- also clears STOP_DEQUEUD

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0,0) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGCONT);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, SIGSTOP) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP);

		kill(pid, SIGKILL);
		return 0;
	}

Without the patch it hangs. After the patch SIGSTOP "injected" by the
tracer is not ignored and stops the tracee.

Note also that if this test-case uses, say, SIGWINCH instead of SIGCONT,
everything works without the patch. This can't be right, and this is
confusing.

The problem is that SIGSTOP (or any other sig_kernel_stop() signal) has
no effect without JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED. This means it is simply ignored
after PTRACE_CONT unless JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED was set "by accident", say
it wasn't cleared after initial SIGSTOP sent by PTRACE_ATTACH.

At first glance we could change ptrace_signal() to add STOP_DEQUEUED
after return from ptrace_stop(), but this is not right in case when the
tracer does not change the reported SIGSTOP and SIGCONT comes in between.
This is even more wrong with PT_SEIZED, SIGCONT adds JOBCTL_TRAP_NOTIFY
which will be "lost" during the TRAP_STOP | TRAP_NOTIFY report.

So lets add STOP_DEQUEUED _before_ we report the signal. It has no effect
unless sig_kernel_stop() == T after the tracer resumes us, and in the
latter case the pending STOP_DEQUEUED means no SIGCONT in between, we
should stop.

Note also that if SIGCONT was sent, PT_SEIZED tracee will correctly
report PTRACE_EVENT_STOP/SIGTRAP and thus the tracer can notice the fact
SIGSTOP was cancelled.

Also, move the current->ptrace check from ptrace_signal() to its caller,
get_signal_to_deliver(), this looks more natural.

Paul E. McKenney a841796f11 signal: align __lock_task_sighand() irq disabling and RCU
The __lock_task_sighand() function calls rcu_read_lock() with interrupts
and preemption enabled, but later calls rcu_read_unlock() with interrupts
disabled.  It is therefore possible that this RCU read-side critical
section will be preempted and later RCU priority boosted, which means that
rcu_read_unlock() will call rt_mutex_unlock() in order to deboost itself, but
with interrupts disabled. This results in lockdep splats, so this commit
nests the RCU read-side critical section within the interrupt-disabled
region of code.  This prevents the RCU read-side critical section from
being preempted, and thus prevents the attempt to deboost with interrupts

It is quite possible that a better long-term fix is to make rt_mutex_unlock()

Tejun Heo a288eecce5 ptrace: kill trivial tracehooks
At this point, tracehooks aren't useful to mainline kernel and mostly
just add an extra layer of obfuscation.  Although they have comments,
without actual in-kernel users, it is difficult to tell what are their
assumptions and they're actually trying to achieve.  To mainline
kernel, they just aren't worth keeping around.

This patch kills the following trivial tracehooks.

* Ones testing whether task is ptraced.  Replace with ->ptrace test.

	tracehook_expect_breakpoints()
	tracehook_consider_ignored_signal()
	tracehook_consider_fatal_signal()

* ptrace_event() wrappers.  Call directly.

	tracehook_report_exec()
	tracehook_report_exit()
	tracehook_report_vfork_done()

* ptrace_release_task() wrapper.  Call directly.

	tracehook_finish_release_task()

* noop

	tracehook_prepare_release_task()
	tracehook_report_death()

This doesn't introduce any behavior change.

Tejun Heo 544b2c91a9 ptrace: implement PTRACE_LISTEN
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.

  # ./test-listen

Tejun Heo fb1d910c17 ptrace: implement TRAP_NOTIFY and use it for group stop events
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
  tracer: stopped=1 signo=19

Tejun Heo 3544d72a0e ptrace: implement PTRACE_SEIZE
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
  tracee: alive
  tracer: exiting
  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
  tracee: alive
  tracee: alive
  tracee: alive
  tracer: exiting
  # ps -el|grep test-seize
  1 T     0  4720     1  0  80   0 -   941 signal ttyS0    00:00:00 test-seize

-v2: SEIZE doesn't schedule TRAP_STOP and leaves tracee running as Jan
     suggested.

-v3: PTRACE_EVENT_STOP traps now report group stop state by signr.  If
     group stop is in effect the stop signal number is returned as
     part of exit_code; otherwise, SIGTRAP.  This was suggested by
     Denys and Oleg.

Tejun Heo 73ddff2bee job control: introduce JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP and use it for group stop trap
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().

Tejun Heo 62c124ff3b ptrace: use bit_waitqueue for TRAPPING instead of wait_chldexit
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.

Tejun Heo 7dd3db54e7 job control: introduce task_set_jobctl_pending()
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.

Tejun Heo 6dfca32984 job control: make task_clear_jobctl_pending() clear TRAPPING automatically
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().

Tejun Heo 40ae717d1e ptrace: fix signal->wait_chldexit usage in task_clear_group_stop_trapping()
GROUP_STOP_TRAPPING waiting mechanism piggybacks on
signal->wait_chldexit which is primarily used to implement waiting for
wait(2) and friends.  When do_wait() waits on signal->wait_chldexit,
it uses a custom wake up callback, child_wait_callback(), which
expects the child task which is waking up the parent to be passed in
as @key to filter out spurious wakeups.

task_clear_group_stop_trapping() used __wake_up_sync() which uses NULL
@key causing the following oops if the parent was doing do_wait().

Fix it by using __wake_up_sync_key() and passing in the child as @key.

I still think it's a mistake to piggyback on wait_chldexit for this.
Given the relative low frequency of ptrace use, we would be much
better off leaving already complex wait_chldexit alone and using bit
waitqueue.

Oleg Nesterov b182801ab3 signal: do_sigtimedwait() needs retarget_shared_pending()
do_sigtimedwait() changes current->blocked and thus it needs
set_current_blocked()->retarget_shared_pending().

We could use set_current_blocked() directly. It is fine to change
->real_blocked from all-zeroes to ->blocked and vice versa lockless,
but this is not immediately clear, looks racy, and needs a huge
comment to explain why this is correct.

To keep the things simple this patch adds the new static helper,
__set_task_blocked() which should be called with ->siglock held. This
way we can change both ->real_blocked and ->blocked atomically under
->siglock as the current code does. This is more understandable.

Oleg Nesterov e6fa16ab9c signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()
In short, almost every changing of current->blocked is wrong, or at least
can lead to the unexpected results.

For example. Two threads T1 and T2, T1 sleeps in sigtimedwait/pause/etc.
kill(tgid, SIG) can pick T2 for TIF_SIGPENDING. If T2 calls sigprocmask()
and blocks SIG before it notices the pending signal, nobody else can handle
this pending shared signal.

I am not sure this is bug, but at least this looks strange imho. T1 should
not sleep forever, there is a signal which should wake it up.

This patch moves the code which actually changes ->blocked into the new
helper, set_current_blocked() and changes this code to call
retarget_shared_pending() as exit_signals() does. We should only care about
the signals we just blocked, we use "newset & ~current->blocked" as a mask.

We do not check !sigisemptyset(newblocked), retarget_shared_pending() is
cheap unless mask & shared_pending.

Note: for this particular case we could simply change sigprocmask() to
return -EINTR if signal_pending(), but then we should change other callers
and, more importantly, if we need this fix then set_current_blocked() will
have more callers and some of them can't restart. See the next patch as a
random example.

Oleg Nesterov ee77f07592 signal: Turn SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED into GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED
This patch moves SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED from signal_struct->flags to
task_struct->group_stop, and thus makes it per-thread.

Like SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED can be false-positive
after return from get_signal_to_deliver(), this is fine. The only
purpose of this bit is: we can drop ->siglock after __dequeue_signal()
returns the sig_kernel_stop() signal and before we call
do_signal_stop(), in this case we must not miss SIGCONT if it comes in
between.

But, unlike SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED can not be
false-positive in do_signal_stop() if multiple threads dequeue the
sig_kernel_stop() signal at the same time.

Consider two threads T1 and T2, SIGTTIN has a hanlder.

	- T1 dequeues SIGTSTP and sets SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, then
	  it drops ->siglock

	- SIGCONT comes and clears SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, SIGTSTP
	  should be cancelled.

	- T2 dequeues SIGTTIN and sets SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED again.
	  Since we have a handler we should not stop, T2 returns
	  to usermode to run the handler.

	- T1 continues, calls do_signal_stop() and wrongly starts
	  the group stop because SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED was restored
	  in between.

With or without this change:

	- we need to do something with ptrace_signal() which can
	  return SIGSTOP, but this needs another discussion

	- SIGSTOP can be lost if it races with the mt exec, will
	  be fixed later.

Add a small comment to explain the !task_is_stopped() check. Note that this
check is not exactly right and it can lead to unnecessary stop later if the
thread is TASK_PTRACED. What we need is task_participated_in_group_stop(),

Oleg Nesterov 1deac632fc signal: prepare_signal(SIGCONT) shouldn't play with TIF_SIGPENDING
prepare_signal(SIGCONT) should never set TIF_SIGPENDING or wake up
the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE threads. We are going to call complete_signal()
which should pick the right thread correctly. All we need is to wake
up the TASK_STOPPED threads.

If the task was stopped, it can't return to usermode without taking
->siglock. Otherwise we don't care, and the spurious TIF_SIGPENDING
can't be useful.

The comment says:

	* If there is a handler for SIGCONT, we must make
	* sure that no thread returns to user mode before
	* we post the signal

It is not clear what this means. Probably, "when there's only a single
thread" and this continues to be true. Otherwise, even if this SIGCONT
is not private, with or without this change only one thread can dequeue
SIGCONT, other threads can happily return to user mode before before
that thread handles this signal.

Note also that wake_up_state(t, __TASK_STOPPED) can't race with the task
which changes its state, TASK_STOPPED state is protected by ->siglock as
well.

In short: when it comes to signal delivery, SIGCONT is the normal signal
and does not need any special support.

Roland Dreier 243b422af9 Relax si_code check in rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfo
Commit da48524eb2 ("Prevent rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfo
from spoofing the signal code") made the check on si_code too strict.
There are several legitimate places where glibc wants to queue a
negative si_code different from SI_QUEUE:

 - This was first noticed with glibc's aio implementation, which wants
   to queue a signal with si_code SI_ASYNCIO; the current kernel
   causes glibc's tst-aio4 test to fail because rt_sigqueueinfo()
   fails with EPERM.

 - Further examination of the glibc source shows that getaddrinfo_a()
   wants to use SI_ASYNCNL (which the kernel does not even define).
   The timer_create() fallback code wants to queue signals with SI_TIMER.

As suggested by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>, loosen the check to
forbid only the problematic SI_TKILL case.

Tejun Heo 244056f9db job control: Don't send duplicate job control stop notification while ptraced
Just as group_exit_code shouldn't be generated when a PTRACE_CONT'd
task re-enters job control stop, notifiction for the event should be
suppressed too.  The logic is the same as the group_exit_code
generation suppression in do_signal_stop(), if SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED is
already set, the task is re-entering job control stop without
intervening SIGCONT and the notifications should be suppressed.

Test case follows.

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <signal.h>
  #include <time.h>
  #include <sys/ptrace.h>
  #include <sys/wait.h>

  static const struct timespec ts100ms = { .tv_nsec = 100000000 };
  static pid_t tracee, tracer;

  static const char *pid_who(pid_t pid)
  {
	  return pid == tracee ? "tracee" : (pid == tracer ? "tracer" : "mommy ");
  }

  static void sigchld_sigaction(int signo, siginfo_t *si, void *ucxt)
  {
	  printf("%s: SIG status=%02d code=%02d (%s)\n",
		 pid_who(getpid()), si->si_status, si->si_code,
		 pid_who(si->si_pid));
  }

  int main(void)
  {
	  const struct sigaction chld_sa = { .sa_sigaction = sigchld_sigaction,
					     .sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO|SA_RESTART };
	  siginfo_t si;

	  sigaction(SIGCHLD, &chld_sa, NULL);

	  tracee = fork();
	  if (!tracee) {
		  tracee = getpid();
		  while (1)
			  pause();
	  }

	  kill(tracee, SIGSTOP);
	  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);

	  tracer = fork();
	  if (!tracer) {
		  tracer = getpid();
		  ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, tracee, NULL, NULL);
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);
		  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, (void *)(long)si.si_status);
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);
		  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, (void *)(long)si.si_status);
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);
		  printf("tracer: detaching\n");
		  ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, tracee, NULL, NULL);
		  return 0;
	  }

	  while (1)
		  pause();
	  return 0;
  }

Before the patch, the parent gets the second notification for the
tracee after the tracer detaches.  si_status is zero because
group_exit_code is not set by the group stop completion which
triggered this notification.

  mommy : SIG status=19 code=05 (tracee)

Tejun Heo ceb6bd67f9 job control: Notify the real parent of job control events regardless of ptrace
With recent changes, job control and ptrace stopped states are
properly separated and accessible to the real parent and the ptracer
respectively; however, notifications of job control stopped/continued
events to the real parent while ptraced are still missing.

A ptracee participates in group stop in ptrace_stop() but the
completion isn't notified.  If participation results in completion of
group stop, notify the real parent of the event.  The ptrace and group
stops are separate and can be handled as such.

However, when the real parent and the ptracer are in the same thread
group, only the ptrace stop event is visible through wait(2) and the
duplicate notifications are different from the current behavior and
are confusing.  Suppress group stop notification in such cases.

The continued state is shared between the real parent and the ptracer
but is only meaningful to the real parent.  Always notify the real
parent and notify the ptracer too for backward compatibility.  Similar
to stop notification, if the real parent is the ptracer, suppress a
duplicate notification.

Test case follows.

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <time.h>
  #include <errno.h>
  #include <sys/types.h>
  #include <sys/ptrace.h>
  #include <sys/wait.h>

  int main(void)
  {
	  const struct timespec ts100ms = { .tv_nsec = 100000000 };
	  pid_t tracee, tracer;
	  siginfo_t si;
	  int i;

	  tracee = fork();
	  if (tracee == 0) {
		  while (1) {
			  printf("tracee: SIGSTOP\n");
			  raise(SIGSTOP);
			  nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
			  printf("tracee: SIGCONT\n");
			  raise(SIGCONT);
			  nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
		  }
	  }

	  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED | WNOHANG | WNOWAIT);

	  tracer = fork();
	  if (tracer == 0) {
		  nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
		  ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, tracee, NULL, NULL);

		  for (i = 0; i < 11; i++) {
			  si.si_pid = 0;
			  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);
			  if (si.si_pid && si.si_code == CLD_TRAPPED)
				  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL,
					 (void *)(long)si.si_status);
		  }
		  printf("tracer: EXITING\n");
		  return 0;
	  }

	  while (1) {
		  si.si_pid = 0;
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED | WCONTINUED | WEXITED);
		  if (si.si_pid)
			  printf("mommy : WAIT status=%02d code=%02d\n",
				 si.si_status, si.si_code);
	  }
	  return 0;
  }

Before this patch, while ptraced, the real parent doesn't get
notifications for job control events, so although it can access those
events, the later waitid(2) call never wakes up.

  tracee: SIGSTOP
  mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05
  tracee: SIGCONT
  tracee: SIGSTOP
  tracee: SIGCONT
  tracee: SIGSTOP
  tracee: SIGCONT
  tracee: SIGSTOP
  tracer: EXITING
  mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05
  ^C

After this patch, it works as expected.

  tracee: SIGSTOP
  mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05
  tracee: SIGCONT
  mommy : WAIT status=18 code=06
  tracee: SIGSTOP
  mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05
  tracee: SIGCONT

  tracee: SIGCONT
  mommy : WAIT status=18 code=06
  tracee: SIGSTOP
  tracer: EXITING

  ^C

-v2: Oleg pointed out that

     * Group stop notification to the real parent should also happen
       when ptracer detach races with ptrace_stop().

     * real_parent_is_ptracer() should be testing thread group
       equality not the task itself as wait(2) and stop/cont
       notifications are normally thread-group wide.

     Both issues are fixed accordingly.

     instead of child->group_leader->real_parent per Oleg's

Tejun Heo 62bcf9d992 job control: Job control stop notifications should always go to the real parent
The stopped notifications in do_signal_stop() and exit_signals() are
always for the completion of job control.  The one in do_signal_stop()
may be delivered to the ptracer if PTRACE_ATTACH races with
notification and the one in exit_signals() if task exits while
ptraced.

In both cases, the notifications are meaningless and confusing to the
ptracer as it never accesses the group stop state while the real
parent would miss notifications for the events it is watching.

Make sure these notifications always go to the real parent by calling
do_notify_parent_cld_stop() with %false @for_ptrace.

Tejun Heo 408a37de6c job control: Don't set group_stop exit_code if re-entering job control stop
While ptraced, a task may be resumed while the containing process is
still job control stopped.  If the task receives another stop signal
in this state, it will still initiate group stop, which generates
group_exit_code, which the real parent would be able to see once the
ptracer detaches.

In this scenario, the real parent may see two consecutive CLD_STOPPED
events from two stop signals without intervening SIGCONT, which
normally is impossible.

Test case follows.

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <sys/ptrace.h>
  #include <sys/wait.h>

  int main(void)
  {
	  pid_t tracee;
	  siginfo_t si;

	  tracee = fork();
	  if (!tracee)
		  while (1)
			  pause();

	  kill(tracee, SIGSTOP);
	  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);

	  if (!fork()) {
		  ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, tracee, NULL, NULL);
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);
		  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, (void *)(long)si.si_status);
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);
		  ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, (void *)(long)si.si_status);
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED);
		  ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, tracee, NULL, NULL);
		  return 0;
	  }

	  while (1) {
		  si.si_pid = 0;
		  waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED | WNOHANG);
		  if (si.si_pid)
			  printf("st=%02d c=%02d\n", si.si_status, si.si_code);
	  }
	  return 0;
  }

Before the patch, the latter waitid() in polling mode reports the
second stopped event generated by the implied SIGSTOP of
PTRACE_ATTACH.

  st=19 c=05

After the patch, the second event is not reported.

Tejun Heo d79fdd6d96 ptrace: Clean transitions between TASK_STOPPED and TRACED
Currently, if the task is STOPPED on ptrace attach, it's left alone
and the state is silently changed to TRACED on the next ptrace call.
The behavior breaks the assumption that arch_ptrace_stop() is called
before any task is poked by ptrace and is ugly in that a task
manipulates the state of another task directly.

With GROUP_STOP_PENDING, the transitions between TASK_STOPPED and
TRACED can be made clean.  The tracer can use the flag to tell the
tracee to retry stop on attach and detach.  On retry, the tracee will
enter the desired state in the correct way.  The lower 16bits of
task->group_stop is used to remember the signal number which caused
the last group stop.  This is used while retrying for ptrace attach as
the original group_exit_code could have been consumed with wait(2) by
then.

As the real parent may wait(2) and consume the group_exit_code
anytime, the group_exit_code needs to be saved separately so that it
can be used when switching from regular sleep to ptrace_stop().  This
is recorded in the lower 16bits of task->group_stop.

If a task is already stopped and there's no intervening SIGCONT, a
ptrace request immediately following a successful PTRACE_ATTACH should
always succeed even if the tracer doesn't wait(2) for attach
completion; however, with this change, the tracee might still be
TASK_RUNNING trying to enter TASK_TRACED which would cause the
following request to fail with -ESRCH.

This intermediate state is hidden from the ptracer by setting
GROUP_STOP_TRAPPING on attach and making ptrace_check_attach() wait
for it to clear on its signal->wait_chldexit.  Completing the
transition or getting killed clears TRAPPING and wakes up the tracer.

Note that the STOPPED -> RUNNING -> TRACED transition is still visible
to other threads which are in the same group as the ptracer and the
reverse transition is visible to all.  Please read the comments for
details.

Oleg:

* Spotted a race condition where a task may retry group stop without
  proper bookkeeping.  Fixed by redoing bookkeeping on retry.

* Spotted that the transition is visible to userland in several
  different ways.  Most are fixed with GROUP_STOP_TRAPPING.  Unhandled
  corner case is documented.

* Pointed out not setting GROUP_STOP_SIGMASK on an already stopped
  task would result in more consistent behavior.

* Pointed out that calling ptrace_stop() from do_signal_stop() in
  TASK_STOPPED can race with group stop start logic and then confuse
  the TRAPPING wait in ptrace_check_attach().  ptrace_stop() is now
  called with TASK_RUNNING.

* Suggested using signal->wait_chldexit instead of bit wait.

* Spotted a race condition between TRACED transition and clearing of
  TRAPPING.

Tejun Heo 5224fa3660 ptrace: Make do_signal_stop() use ptrace_stop() if the task is being ptraced
A ptraced task would still stop at do_signal_stop() when it's stopping
for stop signals and do_signal_stop() behaves the same whether the
task is ptraced or not.  However, in addition to stopping,
ptrace_stop() also does ptrace specific stuff like calling
architecture specific callbacks, so this behavior makes the code more
fragile and difficult to understand.

This patch makes do_signal_stop() test whether the task is ptraced and
use ptrace_stop() if so.  This renders tracehook_notify_jctl() rather
pointless as the ptrace notification is now handled by ptrace_stop()
regardless of the return value from the tracehook.  It probably is a
good idea to update it.

This doesn't solve the whole problem as tasks already in stopped state
would stay in the regular stop when ptrace attached.  That part will
be handled by the next patch.

Oleg pointed out that this makes a userland-visible change.  Before,
SIGCONT would be able to wake up a task in group stop even if the task
is ptraced if the tracer hasn't issued another ptrace command
afterwards (as the next ptrace commands transitions the state into
TASK_TRACED which ignores SIGCONT wakeups).  With this and the next
patch, SIGCONT may race with the transition into TASK_TRACED and is
ignored if the tracee already entered TASK_TRACED.

Another userland visible change of this and the next patch is that the
ptracee's state would now be TASK_TRACED where it used to be
TASK_STOPPED, which is visible via fs/proc.

Tejun Heo 0ae8ce1c8c ptrace: Participate in group stop from ptrace_stop() iff the task is trapping for group stop
Currently, ptrace_stop() unconditionally participates in group stop
bookkeeping.  This is unnecessary and inaccurate.  Make it only
participate if the task is trapping for group stop - ie. if @why is
CLD_STOPPED.  As ptrace_stop() currently is not used when trapping for
group stop, this equals to disabling group stop participation from
ptrace_stop().

A visible behavior change is increased likelihood of delayed group
stop completion if the thread group contains one or more ptraced
tasks.

This is to preapre for further cleanup of the interaction between
group stop and ptrace.

Tejun Heo 39efa3ef3a signal: Use GROUP_STOP_PENDING to stop once for a single group stop
Currently task->signal->group_stop_count is used to decide whether to
stop for group stop.  However, if there is a task in the group which
is taking a long time to stop, other tasks which are continued by
ptrace would repeatedly stop for the same group stop until the group
stop is complete.

Conversely, if a ptraced task is in TASK_TRACED state, the debugger
won't get notified of group stops which is inconsistent compared to
the ptraced task in any other state.

This patch introduces GROUP_STOP_PENDING which tracks whether a task
is yet to stop for the group stop in progress.  The flag is set when a
group stop starts and cleared when the task stops the first time for
the group stop, and consulted whenever whether the task should
participate in a group stop needs to be determined.  Note that now
tasks in TASK_TRACED also participate in group stop.

This results in the following behavior changes.

* For a single group stop, a ptracer would see at most one stop
  reported.

* A ptracee in TASK_TRACED now also participates in group stop and the
  tracer would get the notification.  However, as a ptraced task could
  be in TASK_STOPPED state or any ptrace trap could consume group
  stop, the notification may still be missing.  These will be
  addressed with further patches.

* A ptracee may start a group stop while one is still in progress if
  the tracer let it continue with stop signal delivery.  Group stop
  code handles this correctly.

Oleg:

* Spotted that a task might skip signal check even when its
  GROUP_STOP_PENDING is set.  Fixed by updating
  recalc_sigpending_tsk() to check GROUP_STOP_PENDING instead of
  group_stop_count.

* Pointed out that task->group_stop should be cleared whenever
  task->signal->group_stop_count is cleared.  Fixed accordingly.

* Pointed out the behavior inconsistency between TASK_TRACED and
  RUNNING and the last behavior change.

Tejun Heo e5c1902e92 signal: Fix premature completion of group stop when interfered by ptrace
task->signal->group_stop_count is used to track the progress of group
stop.  It's initialized to the number of tasks which need to stop for
group stop to finish and each stopping or trapping task decrements.
However, each task doesn't keep track of whether it decremented the
counter or not and if woken up before the group stop is complete and
stops again, it can decrement the counter multiple times.

Please consider the following example code.

 static void *worker(void *arg)
 {
	 while (1) ;
	 return NULL;
 }

 int main(void)
 {
	 pthread_t thread;
	 pid_t pid;
	 int i;

	 pid = fork();
	 if (!pid) {
		 for (i = 0; i < 5; i++)
			 pthread_create(&thread, NULL, worker, NULL);
		 while (1) ;
		 return 0;
	 }

	 ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, NULL, NULL);
	 while (1) {
		 waitid(P_PID, pid, NULL, WSTOPPED);
		 ptrace(PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, pid, NULL, (void *)(long)SIGSTOP);
	 }
	 return 0;
 }

The child creates five threads and the parent continuously traps the
first thread and whenever the child gets a signal, SIGSTOP is
delivered.  If an external process sends SIGSTOP to the child, all
other threads in the process should reliably stop.  However, due to
the above bug, the first thread will often end up consuming
group_stop_count multiple times and SIGSTOP often ends up stopping
none or part of the other four threads.

This patch adds a new field task->group_stop which is protected by
siglock and uses GROUP_STOP_CONSUME flag to track which task is still
to consume group_stop_count to fix this bug.

task_clear_group_stop_pending() and task_participate_group_stop() are
added to help manipulating group stop states.  As ptrace_stop() now
also uses task_participate_group_stop(), it will set
SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED if it completes a group stop.

There still are many issues regarding the interaction between group
stop and ptrace.  Patches to address them will follow.

- Oleg spotted duplicate GROUP_STOP_CONSUME.  Dropped.

Tejun Heo c672af35d5 signal: Fix SIGCONT notification code
After a task receives SIGCONT, its parent is notified via SIGCHLD with
its siginfo describing what the notified event is.  If SIGCONT is
received while the child process is stopped, the code should be
CLD_CONTINUED.  If SIGCONT is recieved while the child process is in
the process of being stopped, it should be CLD_STOPPED.  Which code to
use is determined in prepare_signal() and recorded in signal->flags
using SIGNAL_CLD_CONTINUED|STOP flags.

get_signal_deliver() should test these flags and then notify
accoringly; however, it incorrectly tested SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED
instead of SIGNAL_CLD_CONTINUED, thus incorrectly notifying
CLD_CONTINUED if the signal is delivered before the task is wait(2)ed
and CLD_STOPPED if the state was fetched already.

Fix it by testing SIGNAL_CLD_CONTINUED.  While at it, uncompress the
?: test into if/else clause for better readability.

Julien Tinnes da48524eb2 Prevent rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfo from spoofing the signal code
Userland should be able to trust the pid and uid of the sender of a
signal if the si_code is SI_TKILL.

Unfortunately, the kernel has historically allowed sigqueueinfo() to
send any si_code at all (as long as it was negative - to distinguish it
from kernel-generated signals like SIGILL etc), so it could spoof a
SI_TKILL with incorrect siginfo values.

Happily, it looks like glibc has always set si_code to the appropriate
SI_QUEUE, so there are probably no actual user code that ever uses
anything but the appropriate SI_QUEUE flag.

So just tighten the check for si_code (we used to allow any negative
value), and add a (one-time) warning in case there are binaries out
there that might depend on using other si_code values.

Oleg Nesterov 065add3941 signals: check_kill_permission(): don't check creds if same_thread_group()
Andrew Tridgell reports that aio_read(SIGEV_SIGNAL) can fail if the
notification from the helper thread races with setresuid(), see
http://samba.org/~tridge/junkcode/aio_uid.c

This happens because check_kill_permission() doesn't permit sending a
signal to the task with the different cred->xids.  But there is not any
security reason to check ->cred's when the task sends a signal (private or
group-wide) to its sub-thread.  Whatever we do, any thread can bypass all
security checks and send SIGKILL to all threads, or it can block a signal
SIG and do kill(gettid(), SIG) to deliver this signal to another
sub-thread.  Not to mention that CLONE_THREAD implies CLONE_VM.

Change check_kill_permission() to avoid the credentials check when the
sender and the target are from the same thread group.

Also, move "cred = current_cred()" down to avoid calling get_current()
twice.

Note: David Howells pointed out we could relax this even more, the
CLONE_SIGHAND (without CLONE_THREAD) case probably does not need
these checks too.

Roland said:
: The glibc (libpthread) that does set*id across threads has
: been in use for a while (2.3.4?), probably in distro's using kernels as old
: or older than any active -stable streams.  In the race in question, this
: kernel bug is breaking valid POSIX application expectations.

Jason Wessel 67fc4e0cb9 kdb: core for kgdb back end (2 of 2)
This patch contains the hooks and instrumentation into kernel which
live outside the kernel/debug directory, which the kdb core
will call to run commands like lsmod, dmesg, bt etc...

Jiri Slaby 78d7d407b6 kernel core: use helpers for rlimits
Make sure compiler won't do weird things with limits.  E.g.  fetching them
twice may return 2 different values after writable limits are implemented.

I.e.  either use rlimit helpers added in commit 3e10e716ab ("resource:
add helpers for fetching rlimits") or ACCESS_ONCE if not applicable.
