Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] samples: show race-free pidfd metadata access
This is a sample program showing userspace how to get race-free access
to process metadata from a pidfd. It is rather easy to do and userspace
can actually simply reuse code that currently parses a process's status
file in procfs.
The program can easily be extended into a generic helper suitable for
inclusion in a libc to make it even easier for userspace to gain metadata
access.
Since this came up in a discussion because this API is going to be used
in various service managers: A lot of programs will have a whitelist
seccomp filter that returns <some-errno> for all new syscalls. This
means that programs might get confused if CLONE_PIDFD works but the
later pidfd_send_signal() syscall doesn't. Hence, here's a ahead of
time check that pidfd_send_signal() is supported:
bool pidfd_send_signal_supported()
{
int procfd = open("/proc/self", O_DIRECTORY | O_RDONLY | O_CLOEXEC);
if (procfd < 0)
return false;
/*
* A process is always allowed to signal itself so
* pidfd_send_signal() should never fail this test. If it does
* it must mean it is not available, blocked by an LSM, seccomp,
* or other.
*/
return pidfd_send_signal(procfd, 0, NULL, 0) == 0;
}

/* changelog */
v1:
- Christian Brauner <christian@...uner.io>:
- adapt sample program to changes in how CLONE_PIDFD returns the pidfd
With Oleg's suggestion we can simplify the program even more.
v2: patch unchanged
v3: patch unchanged
