From: Serge Hallyn <serue@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [RFC][v5][PATCH 3/8] Make pid_max a pid_ns property Remove the pid_max global, and make it a property of the pid_namespace. When a pid_ns is created, it inherits the parent's pid_ns. Fixing up sysctl (trivial akin to ipc version, but potentially tedious to get right for all CONFIG* combinations) is left for later. Changelog[v2]: - Port to newer kernel - Make pid_max a local variable in alloc_pidmap() to simplify code/patch Signed-off-by: Serge Hallyn <serue@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/pid_namespace.h | 1 + kernel/pid.c | 14 +++++++------- kernel/pid_namespace.c | 6 ++++-- kernel/sysctl.c | 4 ++-- 4 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) Index: linux-2.6/include/linux/pid_namespace.h =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/include/linux/pid_namespace.h 2009-08-05 13:00:21.000000000 -0700 +++ linux-2.6/include/linux/pid_namespace.h 2009-09-07 13:12:04.000000000 -0700 @@ -30,6 +30,7 @@ #ifdef CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT struct bsd_acct_struct *bacct; #endif + int pid_max; }; extern struct pid_namespace init_pid_ns; Index: linux-2.6/kernel/pid.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/kernel/pid.c 2009-09-07 13:11:39.000000000 -0700 +++ linux-2.6/kernel/pid.c 2009-09-07 13:12:04.000000000 -0700 @@ -43,8 +43,6 @@ static int pidhash_shift; struct pid init_struct_pid = INIT_STRUCT_PID; -int pid_max = PID_MAX_DEFAULT; - #define RESERVED_PIDS 300 int pid_max_min = RESERVED_PIDS + 1; @@ -78,6 +76,7 @@ .last_pid = 0, .level = 0, .child_reaper = &init_task, + .pid_max = PID_MAX_DEFAULT, }; EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(init_pid_ns); @@ -151,6 +150,7 @@ { int i, offset, max_scan, pid, last = pid_ns->last_pid; int rc = -EAGAIN; + int pid_max = pid_ns->pid_max; struct pidmap *map; pid = last + 1; Index: linux-2.6/kernel/pid_namespace.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/kernel/pid_namespace.c 2009-08-05 13:00:23.000000000 -0700 +++ linux-2.6/kernel/pid_namespace.c 2009-09-07 13:12:04.000000000 -0700 @@ -87,6 +87,7 @@ kref_init(&ns->kref); ns->level = level; + ns->pid_max = parent_pid_ns->pid_max; ns->parent = get_pid_ns(parent_pid_ns); set_bit(0, ns->pidmap[0].page); Index: linux-2.6/kernel/sysctl.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/kernel/sysctl.c 2009-09-07 13:10:39.000000000 -0700 +++ linux-2.6/kernel/sysctl.c 2009-09-07 13:13:23.000000000 -0700 @@ -55,6 +55,7 @@ #include <asm/uaccess.h> #include <asm/processor.h> +#include <linux/pid_namespace.h> #ifdef CONFIG_X86 #include <asm/nmi.h> @@ -78,7 +79,6 @@ extern int core_uses_pid; extern int suid_dumpable; extern char core_pattern[]; -extern int pid_max; extern int min_free_kbytes; extern int pid_max_min, pid_max_max; extern int sysctl_drop_caches; @@ -670,7 +670,7 @@ { .ctl_name = KERN_PIDMAX, .procname = "pid_max", - .data = &pid_max, + .data = &init_pid_ns.pid_max, .maxlen = sizeof (int), .mode = 0644, .proc_handler = &proc_dointvec_minmax, _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
