Subject: binfmt: introduce coredump parameter structure
From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com>
These patches are for fixing coredump mm->flags consistency issue.
---
1787 if (mm->core_state || !get_dumpable(mm)) { <- (1)
1788 up_write(&mm->mmap_sem);
1789 put_cred(cred);
1790 goto fail;
1791 }
1792
[...]
1798 if (get_dumpable(mm) == 2) { /* Setuid core dump mode */ <-(2)
1799 flag = O_EXCL; /* Stop rewrite attacks */
1800 cred->fsuid = 0; /* Dump root private */
1801 }
---
Since dumpable bits are not protected by lock, there is a chance to change
these bits between (1) and (2).
To solve this issue, this patch copies mm->flags to
coredump_params.mm_flags at the beginning of do_coredump() and uses it
instead of get_dumpable() while dumping core. This series also introduce
coredump parameter structure for simplify bimfmt->core_dump interface.
This patch:
Introduce coredump parameter data structure (struct coredump_params) for
simplifying binfmt->core_dump() arguments. This also cleanup DUMP_WRITE()
in elf_core_dump() by style issue.

This patch break ia64 because arch specific ELF_CORE_EXTRA_PHDRS and
ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_DATA still use DUMP_WRITE. I expect this patch
break uml too.

$ grep -r DUMP_WRITE arch/*/include

arch/ia64/include/asm/elf.h: DUMP_WRITE((void *) gate_phdrs[\
Oops, certainly, that's a problem.
IMHO, we should not do like that, all parameter required by a macro should be
specified explicitly, since it reduces readability so much...
I think we'd better make those macros inline function, check it's return value
for error handling.
What would you think about it?
Thank you,

arch/um/sys-i386/asm/elf.h uses DUMP_WRITE() too.

Agreed, DUMP_WRITE() in its current form should die. Not only
it has implicit parameter, it does "goto" from the macro body
and it has multiple definitions withing the same file.
But perhaps this needs a separate patch? It is not trivial to kill
DUMP_WRITE(), you can fix this patch if you change DUMP_WRITE()
to use cprm->file instead of file.
Oleg.

Hmm, certainly, that should be separated. So I just change DUMP_WRITE()
to use cprm->limit/file.

Introduce coredump parameter data structure (struct coredump_params)
for simplifying binfmt->core_dump() arguments.
Changes in v2:
- Don't remove DUMP_WRITE() macro.

for simplifying binfmt->core_dump() arguments.
Changes in v2:
- Don't remove DUMP_WRITE() macro.

Hi Ingo and Andrew,
By the way, I'd like to push signal_coredump tracepoint (which I attached)
on these patches, and it also depends on signal-tracepoint patch series
which already picked up to -tip tree.
So, in this case, is it possible to pick these patches (coredump parameter
and mm->flags consistency fix (http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/60917/))
to -tip tree too?
Thank you,

Oops, sorry. maybe copy-and-paste buffer demon did it :-(

Introduce coredump parameter data structure (struct coredump_params)
for simplifying binfmt->core_dump() arguments.
Changes in v2:
- Don't remove DUMP_WRITE() macro, because it is used in
ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_* at asm/elf.h on ia64 and um.

I think Andrew wanted to see a longer explanation about precisely what
we need for these tracepoints and what the various specific usecases are
to utilize it.
I.e. a basic cost/benefit analysis is needed. By looking at the patch we
can see the cost - but you have to counter-balance that with enough
stuff in the 'benefits' column of the equation.

Hmm, actually, this tracepoint requirement comes from the viewpoint of
administrators (not developers). Since now we have introduced many
coredump configurations (e.g. dumpable, coredump_filter, core_pattern, etc)
and some of them can be modified by users, we assume it is hard to know
what was actually dumped (or not dumped) after some problem happened on the
system. For example, a process didn't generated core, coredump doesn't have
some sections, etc. In those cases, the coredump tracepoint can help us to
know why the core file is so big or small, or not generated, by recording
all configurations for all processes on the system. That will reduce
system-administration cost.
Thank you,

Add signal coredump tracepoint which shows signal number,
mm->flags, limits, pointer to file structure and core
file name.
This tracepoint requirement comes mainly from the viewpoint of
administrators. Since now we have introduced many coredump
configurations (e.g. dumpable, coredump_filter, core_pattern,
etc) and some of them can be modified by users, it will be hard
to know what was actually dumped (or not dumped) after some
problem happened on the system. For example, a process didn't
generated core, coredump doesn't have some sections, etc.
In those cases, the coredump tracepoint can help us to know
why the core file is so big or small, or not generated, by
recording all configurations for all processes on the system.
That will reduce system-administration cost.
Changes in v2:
- Fix a bug to clear file local variable when
call_usermodehelper_pipe() is failed.

Why is the kernel pointer to the file structure logged? User-space has
no use for it and the analysis value is low.

Ah, if open() or opening pipe fails, it becomes 0 or -ERRNO,
so we can check if there is an error.
Perhaps, we can do below in trace_printk for trace users.
"open %s", (!file || IS_ERR((void *)file)) ? "failed" : "succeeded"

ok, that wasnt obvious from the patch - worth adding it to the
changelog.

i'd rather suggest to pass an error code (and keep it 0 if none),
instead of some ad-hoc string message.
But ... the whole issue of VFS event logging and new tracepoints should
be approached from a more generic direction i think. Do we want to log
inode_nr:dev pairs as well? Shouldnt there be a generic event-class
definition via DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS for file related events, with 'core
dumped' just being a sub-event-code?
I sense reluctance from the direction of Andrew and disinterest from the
VFS folks - not a good backdrop in general.

AFAIK, not-dumped case is important than dump successful case.
IOW, admin need to know why the crashed process was not dumped.
This tracepoint doesn't cover all failure case. especially
binfmt->core_dump() et.al.
IOW, this tracepoint seems too specialized piped-coredump feature.
What do you think this tracepoint's use case?

Certainly, failure cases are important, but also, the cases
that dumped-core doesn't or does include some sections
are also important.

Hmm, so would you mean that after calling binfmt->core_dump()
is better place?
> What do you think this tracepoint's use case?
Frankly to say, our first attempt was tracing mm->flags because
it can be changed by users without asking, and they sometimes
ask why core is not perfect or why core file is so big.
Perhaps, covering all of those failure cases and succeed cases,
gives better information for them. In that case, we might better
tweak execution(goto) path to leave some error code on retval.
e.g.
if (IS_ERR(file))
goto fail_dropcount;
+ retval = -EBADF;
inode = file->f_path.dentry->d_inode;
if (inode->i_nlink > 1)
goto close_fail; /* multiple links - don't dump */
if (!ispipe && d_unhashed(file->f_path.dentry))
goto close_fail;
/* AK: actually i see no reason to not allow this for named pipes etc.,
but keep the previous behaviour for now. */
if (!ispipe && !S_ISREG(inode->i_mode))
goto close_fail;
/*
* Dont allow local users get cute and trick others to coredump
* into their pre-created files:
*/
+ retval = -EPERM;
if (inode->i_uid != current_fsuid())
goto close_fail;
+ retval = -EINVAL;
if (!file->f_op)
goto close_fail;
if (!file->f_op->write)
goto close_fail;
+ retval = -EEXIST;
if (!ispipe && do_truncate(file->f_path.dentry, 0, 0, file) != 0)
goto close_fail;

Sure. Or, perhaps, is it enough to show error code? (as block_rq_with_error did)

Hmm, would you mean that coredump event should be a VFS event? or
handling file open errors should be a VFS event?
There are many other special reasons of failing coredump, as I discussed
with Kosaki-san. So, I think coredump event should be different from VFS
events.
Of course, Failure of file opening event should be handled in VFS events
if possible. In that case, we just need to trace coredump event and
VFS open event, and matching file descriptor or something like that.

I think your following use-case desired so. if you have unwritten reason, please correct me.
For example, a process didn't generated core, coredump doesn't have
some sections, etc.

Add signal coredump tracepoint which shows signal number,
mm->flags, limits, the result of coredump, and core
file name.
This tracepoint requirement comes mainly from the viewpoint of
administrators. Since now we have introduced many coredump
configurations (e.g. dumpable, coredump_filter, core_pattern,
etc) and some of them can be modified by users, it will be hard
to know what was actually dumped (or not dumped) after some
problem happened on the system. For example, a process didn't
generated core, coredump doesn't have some sections, etc.
In those cases, the coredump tracepoint can help us to know
why the core file is so big or small, or not generated, by
recording all configurations for all processes on the system.
That will reduce system-administration cost.
Changes in v3:
- Move tracepoint at the end of do_coredump() for tracing
the result of coredump.
- Use retval to record error-code at every failure points
for passing the result of coredump to tracepoint.
- Trace retval instead of cprm->file for recording the
result of coredump.
Changes in v2:
- Fix a bug to clear file local variable when
call_usermodehelper_pipe() is failed.

I don't think "limit" is userfriendly name, core_limit or core_size_limit is better?
plus, we have core_pipe_limit sysctl too. (it's similar but different concept limit).
other parts looks good to me.

Ah, I missed it. OK, so I'll rename core_limit and add core_pipe_limit.
Thank you for pointed it out :-)

Hmm, perhaps, would we need a pair of core_pipe_limit and dump_count?
because it limits the number of concurrently dump-to-pipe and the number
is stored on dump_count.
Or, maybe it is enough to trace current parameters, because if we hit the
core_pipe_limit, we can see -EFBIG at retval parameter.

Add signal coredump tracepoint which shows signal number,
mm->flags, core file size limitation, the result of
coredump, and core file name.
This tracepoint requirement comes mainly from the viewpoint of
administrators. Since now we have introduced many coredump
configurations (e.g. dumpable, coredump_filter, core_pattern,
etc) and some of them can be modified by users, it will be hard
to know what was actually dumped (or not dumped) after some
problem happened on the system. For example, a process didn't
generated core, coredump doesn't have some sections, etc.
In those cases, the coredump tracepoint can help us to know
why the core file is so big or small, or not generated, by
recording all configurations for all processes on the system.
That will reduce system-administration cost.
Changes in v4:
- Rename limit trace-argument to core_size_limit, because
of user friendly output.
Changes in v3:
- Move tracepoint at the end of do_coredump() for tracing
the result of coredump.
- Use retval to record error-code at every failure points
for passing the result of coredump to tracepoint.
- Trace retval instead of cprm->file for recording the
result of coredump.
Changes in v2:
- Fix a bug to clear file local variable when
call_usermodehelper_pipe() is failed.
