[PATCH v5] pid_ns: Introduce ioctl to set vector of ns_last_pid's on ns hierarhy

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On implementing of nested pid namespaces support in CRIU
(checkpoint-restore in userspace tool) we run into
the situation, that it's impossible to create a task with
specific NSpid effectively. After commit 49f4d8b93ccf
"pidns: Capture the user namespace and filter ns_last_pid"
it is impossible to set ns_last_pid on any pid namespace,
except task's active pid_ns (before the commit it was possible
to write to pid_ns_for_children). Thus, if a restored task
in a container has more than one pid_ns levels, the restorer
code must have a task helper for every pid namespace
of the task's pid_ns hierarhy.

This is a big problem, because of communication with
a helper for every pid_ns in the hierarchy is not cheap.
It's not performance-good as it implies many helpers wakeups
to create a single task (independently, how you communicate
with the helpers). This patch tries to decide the problem.

It introduces a new pid_ns ioctl(NS_SET_LAST_PID_VEC),
which allows to write a vector of last pids on pid_ns hierarchy.
The vector is passed as array of pids in struct ns_ioc_pid_vec,
written in reverse order. The first number corresponds to
the opened namespace ns_last_pid, the second is to its parent, etc.
So, if you have the pid namespaces hierarchy like:

pid_ns1 (grand father)
  |
  v
pid_ns2 (father)
  |
  v
pid_ns3 (child)

and the pid_ns3 is open, then the corresponding vector will be
{last_ns_pid3, last_ns_pid2, last_ns_pid1}. This vector may be
short and it may contain less levels. For example,
{last_ns_pid3, last_ns_pid2} or even {last_ns_pid3}, in dependence
of which levels you want to populate.

v5: Move pid_max up for !CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE builds
(found by kbuild test robot).

v4: Declare struct ns_ioc_pid_vec directly instead of include uapi file.
Make the interface independent of CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
Include linux/types.h in nsfs.h for pid_t.
Get all vectors at once.
Make checks atomical.

v3: Use __u32 in uapi instead of unsigned int.

v2: Kill pid_ns->child_reaper check as it's impossible to have
such a pid namespace file open.
Use generic namespaces ioctl() number.
Pass pids as array, not as a string.
