[PATCH v1 0/2] pidfd: waiting on processes through pidfds

[Christian Brauner]

Hey everyone,

/* v1 */
This adds the ability to wait on processes using pidfds. This is one of
the few missing pieces to make it possible to manage processes using
only pidfds.

Please note the following major changes (More details can be found in
the individual commit changelogs.):
- Add the new type P_PIDFD to waitid() instead of a new dedicated
  pidfd_wait() syscall.
  This is the same approach we discussed a few months ago and still
  prefer over adding a dedicated syscall.
- Adapt the tests to the new type P_PIDFD for waitid().
- Remove struct waitid_info patch.
  This will be sent out as a separate patch.
- Remove CLONE_WAIT_PID patch.
  This will be sent out as a separate patch.

The core patch for waitid is pleasantly small. The largest change is
caused by adding proper tests for waitid(P_PIDFD).

[PATCH v1 1/2] pidfd: add P_PIDFD to waitid()

[Christian Brauner]

This adds the P_PIDFD type to waitid().
One of the last remaining bits for the pidfd api is to make it possible
to wait on pidfds. With P_PIDFD added to waitid() the parts of userspace
that want to use the pidfd api to exclusively manage processes can do so
now.

One of the things this will unblock in the future is the ability to make
it possible to retrieve the exit status via waitid(P_PIDFD) for
non-parent processes if handed a _suitable_ pidfd that has this feature
set. This is similar to what you can do on FreeBSD with kqueue(). It
might even end up being possible to wait on a process as a non-parent if
an appropriate property is enabled on the pidfd.

With P_PIDFD no scoping of the process identified by the pidfd is
possible, i.e. it explicitly blocks things such as wait4(-1), wait4(0),
waitid(P_ALL), waitid(P_PGID) etc. It only allows for semantics
equivalent to wait4(pid), waitid(P_PID). Users that need scoping should
rely on pid-based wait*() syscalls for now.

So now we have four cases in the switch statement, and two of them do
*not* want that "find_get_pid()" call.

Honestly, let's just move that whole thing into the switch statement
for the two cases that do want it. Particulartly since I think the
"upid == 0" case for P_PGID will prefer it that way anyway.

Let's not check 'type' in two different places in two completely
different ways.

Ok?

Ok, will resend with that changed.

[PATCH v1 2/2] pidfd: add pidfd_wait tests

[Christian Brauner]

Add tests for pidfd_wait() and CLONE_WAIT_PID:
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD) can wait on a pidfd
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD) can wait on a pidfd and return siginfo_t
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD) works with WEXITED
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD) works with WSTOPPED
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD) works with WUNTRACED
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD) works with WCONTINUED
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD) works with WNOWAIT
- test that waitid(P_PIDFD)works with WNOHANG
