ptrace: dont send SIGSTOP on auto-attach if PT_SEIZED

2011-07-17T18:23:52+00:00

The fake SIGSTOP during attach has numerous problems. PTRACE_SEIZE
is already fine, but we have basically the same problems is SIGSTOP
is sent on auto-attach, the tracer can't know if this signal signal
should be cancelled or not.

Change ptrace_event() to set JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP if the new child is
PT_SEIZED, this triggers the PTRACE_EVENT_STOP report.

Thereafter a PT_SEIZED task can never report the bogus SIGSTOP.

Test-case:

	#define PTRACE_SEIZE		0x4206
	#define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL	0x80000000
	#define PTRACE_EVENT_STOP	7
	#define WEVENT(s)		((s & 0xFF0000) >> 16)

	int main(void)
	{
		int child, grand_child, status;
		long message;

		child = fork();
		if (!child) {
			kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);
			fork();
			assert(0);
			return 0x23;
		}

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, child, 0,PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL) == 0);
		assert(wait(&status) == child);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, child, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK) == 0);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, child, 0,0) == 0);
		assert(waitpid(child, &status, 0) == child);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGTRAP);
		assert(WEVENT(status) == PTRACE_EVENT_FORK);

		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_GETEVENTMSG, child, 0, &message) == 0);
		grand_child = message;

		assert(waitpid(grand_child, &status, 0) == grand_child);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGTRAP);
		assert(WEVENT(status) == PTRACE_EVENT_STOP);

		kill(child, SIGKILL);
		kill(grand_child, SIGKILL);
		return 0;
	}

ptrace: mv send-SIGSTOP from do_fork() to ptrace_init_task()

2011-07-17T18:23:51+00:00

If the new child is traced, do_fork() adds the pending SIGSTOP.
It assumes that either it is traced because of auto-attach or the
tracer attached later, in both cases sigaddset/set_thread_flag is
correct even if SIGSTOP is already pending.

Now that we have PTRACE_SEIZE this is no longer right in the latter
case. If the tracer does PTRACE_SEIZE after copy_process() makes the
child visible the queued SIGSTOP is wrong.

We could check PT_SEIZED bit and change ptrace_attach() to set both
PT_PTRACED and PT_SEIZED bits simultaneously but see the next patch,
we need to know whether this child was auto-attached or not anyway.

So this patch simply moves this code to ptrace_init_task(), this
way we can never race with ptrace_attach().

ptrace_init_task: initialize child->jobctl explicitly

2011-07-17T18:23:51+00:00

new_child->jobctl is not initialized during the fork, it is copied
from parent->jobctl. Currently this is harmless, the forking task
is running and copy_process() can't succeed if signal_pending() is
true, so only JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED can be copied. Still this is a
bit fragile, it would be more clean to set ->jobctl = 0 explicitly.

Also, check ->ptrace != 0 instead of PT_PTRACED, move the
CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT code up.

ptrace: ptrace_reparented() should check same_thread_group()

2011-06-27T18:30:10+00:00

ptrace_reparented() naively does parent != real_parent, this means
it returns true even if the tracer _is_ the real parent. This is per
process thing, not per-thread. The only reason ->real_parent can
point to the non-leader thread is that we have __WNOTHREAD.

Change it to check !same_thread_group(parent, real_parent).

It has two callers, and in both cases the current check does not
look right.

exit_notify: we should respect ->exit_signal if the exiting leader
is traced by any thread from the parent thread group. It is the
child of the whole group, and we are going to send the signal to
the whole group.

wait_task_zombie: without __WNOTHREAD do_wait() should do the same
for any thread, only sys_ptrace() is "bound" to the single thread.
However do_wait(WEXITED) succeeds but does not release a traced
natural child unless the caller is the tracer.

Test-case:

	void *tfunc(void *arg)
	{
		assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, (long)arg, 0,0) == 0);
		pause();
		return NULL;
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		pthread_t thr;
		pid_t pid, stat, ret;

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

		assert(pthread_create(&thr, NULL, tfunc, (void*)(long)pid) == 0);

		assert(waitpid(-1, &stat, 0) == pid);
		assert(WIFSTOPPED(stat));

		kill(pid, SIGKILL);

		assert(waitpid(-1, &stat, 0) == pid);
		assert(WIFSIGNALED(stat) && WTERMSIG(stat) == SIGKILL);

		ret = waitpid(pid, &stat, 0);
		if (ret < 0)
			return 0;

		printf("WTF? %d is dead, but: wait=%d stat=%x\n",
				pid, ret, stat);

		return 1;
	}

Note that the main thread simply does

	pid = fork();
	kill(pid, SIGKILL);

and then without the patch wait4(WEXITED) succeeds twice and reports
WTERMSIG(stat) == SIGKILL.

ptrace: introduce ptrace_event_enabled() and simplify ptrace_event() and tracehook_prepare_clone()

2011-06-22T17:26:28+00:00

This patch implements ptrace_event_enabled() which tests whether a
given PTRACE_EVENT_* is enabled and use it to simplify ptrace_event()
and tracehook_prepare_clone().

PT_EVENT_FLAG() macro is added which calculates PT_TRACE_* flag from
PTRACE_EVENT_*.  This is used to define PT_TRACE_* flags and by
ptrace_event_enabled() to find the matching flag.

This is used to make ptrace_event() and tracehook_prepare_clone()
simpler.

* ptrace_event() callers were responsible for providing mask to test
  whether the event was enabled.  This patch implements
  ptrace_event_enabled() and make ptrace_event() drop @mask and
  determine whether the event is enabled from @event.  Note that
  @event is constant and this conversion doesn't add runtime overhead.

  All conversions except tracehook_report_clone_complete() are
  trivial.  tracehook_report_clone_complete() used to use 0 for @mask
  (always enabled) but now tests whether the specified event is
  enabled.  This doesn't cause any behavior difference as it's
  guaranteed that the event specified by @trace is enabled.

* tracehook_prepare_clone() now only determines which event is
  applicable and use ptrace_event_enabled() for enable test.

This doesn't introduce any behavior change.

ptrace: implement PTRACE_LISTEN

2011-06-16T19:41:54+00:00

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
  tracer: stopped=0 signo=5
  mother: SIGSTOP
  tracer: SIG 19
  tracer: stopped=1 signo=19
  mother: SIGCONT
  tracer: stopped=0 signo=5
  tracer: SIG 18
  mother: SIGSTOP
  tracer: SIG 19
  tracer: stopped=1 signo=19
  mother: SIGCONT
  tracer: stopped=0 signo=5
  tracer: SIG 18
  mother: SIGSTOP
  tracer: SIG 19
  tracer: stopped=1 signo=19
  mother: SIGCONT
  tracer: stopped=0 signo=5
  tracer: SIG 18

ptrace: implement PTRACE_INTERRUPT

2011-06-16T19:41:53+00:00

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
  tracer: INTERRUPT and DETACH
  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
  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
     child unkillable.  Spotted by Oleg.
