Although this can be achieved using SCM_RIGHTS, and parasitic code injection, this offers a more straightforward mechanism, with less overhead and complexity. The process under manipulation's fd still remains valid, and unmodified by the copy operation. It introduces a flags field. The flags field is reserved a the moment, but the intent is to extend it with the following capabilities: * Close the remote FD when copying it * Drop the cgroup data if it's a fd pointing a socket when copying it The syscall numbers were chosen to be one greater than openat2. Summary of history: This initially started as a ptrace command. It did not require the process to be stopped, and felt like kind of an awkward fit for ptrace. After that, it moved to an ioctl on the pidfd. Given the core functionality, it made sense to make it a syscall which did not require the process to be stopped.

This will come in another patchset, as the new self-tests cover all the functionality. Changes since v3: * Add self-test * Move to ioctl passing fd directly, versus args struct * Shuffle around include files Changes since v2: * Move to ioctl on pidfd instead of ptrace function * Add security check before moving file descriptor Changes since the RFC v1: * Introduce a new helper to fs/file.c to fetch a file descriptor from any process. It largely uses the code suggested by Oleg, with a few changes to fix locking * It uses an extensible options struct to supply the FD, and option. * I added a sample, using the code from the user-ptrace sample Sargun Dhillon (4): vfs, fdtable: Add fget_task helper pid: Implement pidfd_getfd syscall arch: wire up pidfd_getfd syscall test: Add test for pidfd getfd arch/alpha/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/arm/tools/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd.h | 2 +- arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h | 2 + arch/ia64/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/m68k/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/microblaze/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/mips/kernel/syscalls/syscall_n32.tbl | 1 + arch/mips/kernel/syscalls/syscall_n64.tbl | 1 + arch/mips/kernel/syscalls/syscall_o32.tbl | 1 + arch/parisc/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/powerpc/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/s390/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/sh/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/sparc/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_32.tbl | 1 + arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl | 1 + arch/xtensa/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl | 1 + fs/file.c | 22 +- include/linux/file.h | 2 + include/linux/syscalls.h | 1 + include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h | 4 +- kernel/pid.c | 90 +++++++ tools/testing/selftests/pidfd/.gitignore | 1 + tools/testing/selftests/pidfd/Makefile | 2 +- tools/testing/selftests/pidfd/pidfd.h | 9 + .../selftests/pidfd/pidfd_getfd_test.c | 249 ++++++++++++++++++ 27 files changed, 395 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/testing/selftests/pidfd/pidfd_getfd_test.c -- 2.20.1
