[PATCH v2 1/2] Add polling support to pidfd

[PATCH v2 1/2] Add polling support to pidfd

[Joel Fernandes (Google)]

Android low memory killer (LMK) needs to know when a process dies once
it is sent the kill signal. It does so by checking for the existence of
/proc/pid which is both racy and slow. For example, if a PID is reused
between when LMK sends a kill signal and checks for existence of the
PID, since the wrong PID is now possibly checked for existence.

This patch adds polling support to pidfd. Using the polling support, LMK
will be able to get notified when a process exists in race-free and fast
way, and allows the LMK to do other things (such as by polling on other
fds) while awaiting the process being killed to die.

For notification to polling processes, we follow the same existing
mechanism in the kernel used when the parent of the task group is to be
notified of a child's death (do_notify_parent).  This is precisely when
the tasks waiting on a poll of pidfd are also awakened in this patch.

We have decided to include the waitqueue in struct pid for the following
reasons:
1. The wait queue has to survive for the lifetime of the poll. Including
it in task_struct would not be option in this case because the task can
be reaped and destroyed before the poll returns.

2. By including the struct pid for the waitqueue means that during
de_thread(), the new thread group leader automatically gets the new
waitqueue/pid even though its task_struct is different.

Appropriate test cases are added in the second patch to provide coverage
of all the cases the patch is handling.

Andy had a similar patch [1] in the past which was a good reference
however this patch tries to handle different situations properly related
to thread group existence, and how/where it notifies. And also solves
other bugs (waitqueue lifetime).  Daniel had a similar patch [2]
recently which this patch supercedes.

[PATCH v2 2/2] Add selftests for pidfd polling

[Joel Fernandes (Google)]

Other than verifying pidfd based polling, the tests make sure that
wait semantics are preserved with the pidfd poll. Notably the 2 cases:
1. If a thread group leader exits while threads still there, then no
   pidfd poll notifcation should happen.
2. If a non-thread group leader does an execve, then the thread group
   leader is signaled to exit and is replaced with the execing thread
   as the new leader, however the parent is not notified in this case.

[PATCH v2 2/2] Add selftests for pidfd polling

[joel]

Other than verifying pidfd based polling, the tests make sure that
wait semantics are preserved with the pidfd poll. Notably the 2 cases:
1. If a thread group leader exits while threads still there, then no
   pidfd poll notifcation should happen.
2. If a non-thread group leader does an execve, then the thread group
   leader is signaled to exit and is replaced with the execing thread
   as the new leader, however the parent is not notified in this case.

This looks good to me. Once Oleg has given his Ack/Review I'm going to
move this into pidfd for-next and as mentioned before schedule it for
5.3 after CLONE_PIDFD has been merged.

nit: Function with void usually do not do an explicit return at the end. :)

Please make int use_waitpid a proper bool and make the function void as
it's return value is never checked in main.

(I know the other ones in the test file here do the same thing and I
should switch them to void soon at some point.)

I'm sorry, can you please either briefly explain or comment where
this +2 comes from? Why is that the cut-off?

Why is child_exit_secs a pointer?

Should be void as it's return value isn't checked at all.

(I know the other ones in the test file here do the same thing and I
should switch them to void soon at some point.)

Please make int use_waitpid a proper bool and make the function void as
it's return value is never checked in main.

(I know the other ones in the test file here do the same thing and I
should switch them to void soon at some point.)

                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Ah, this is not right, we can race with de_thread() which changes the leader,
in particular it does leader->exit_signal = -1 to indicate that this thread is
no longer a group leader, but pid_task() can return the old leader.

We are going to check thread_group_empty() below, it won't be true in this case,
so this race should not make any harm.

Just remove this WARN_ON(). We can't use has_group_leader_pid(), it can return
false if pid_task() returns the new leader.

Otherwise I see no problems.
