From 8a35241803eeb0e9fd3fe27835d6b2775c73b641 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2011 17:06:53 +0200 Subject: 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.
