Subject: [PATCH 04/10] ptrace: implement PTRACE_INTERRUPT
Currently, there's no way to trap a running ptracee short of sending a
signal which has various side effects. This patch implements
PTRACE_INTERRUPT which traps ptracee without any signal or job control
related side effect.
The implementation is almost trivial. It uses the group stop trap -
SIGTRAP | PTRACE_EVENT_STOP << 8. A new trap flag
JOBCTL_TRAP_INTERRUPT is added, which is set on PTRACE_INTERRUPT and
cleared when any trap happens. As INTERRUPT should be useable
regardless of the current state of tracee, task_is_traced() test in
ptrace_check_attach() is skipped for INTERRUPT.
PTRACE_INTERRUPT is available iff tracee is attached with
PTRACE_SEIZE.
Test program follows.
#define PTRACE_SEIZE 0x4206
#define PTRACE_INTERRUPT 0x4207
#define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL 0x80000000
static const struct timespec ts100ms = { .tv_nsec = 100000000 };
static const struct timespec ts1s = { .tv_sec = 1 };
static const struct timespec ts3s = { .tv_sec = 3 };
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
pid_t tracee;
tracee = fork();
if (tracee == 0) {
nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
while (1) {
printf("tracee: alive pid=%d\n", getpid());
nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL);
}
}
if (argc > 1)
kill(tracee, SIGSTOP);
nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL);
ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL,
(void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL);
waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED);
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
nanosleep(&ts3s, NULL);
printf("tracer: INTERRUPT and DETACH\n");
ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, tracee, NULL, NULL);
waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED);
ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, tracee, NULL, NULL);
nanosleep(&ts3s, NULL);
printf("tracer: exiting\n");
kill(tracee, SIGKILL);
return 0;
}
When called without argument, tracee is seized from running state,
continued, interrupted and then detached back to running state.
# ./test-interrupt
tracee: alive pid=4546
tracee: alive pid=4546
tracee: alive pid=4546
tracer: INTERRUPT and DETACH
tracee: alive pid=4546
tracee: alive pid=4546
tracee: alive pid=4546
tracer: exiting
When called with argument, it's the same but tracee is detached back
to stopped state.
# ./test-interrupt 1
tracee: alive pid=4548
tracee: alive pid=4548
tracee: alive pid=4548
tracer: INTERRUPT and DETACH
tracer: exiting
Before PTRACE_INTERRUPT, once the tracee was continued, there was no
easy way to do PTRACE_DETACH without causing side effect as tracee
couldn't be trapped without side effect.
