OK, am I understanding it's something like:
int tmp_fd = epoll_create1(...);
if (tmp_fd != orig_epfd) {
dup2(tmp_fd, orig_epfd);
close(tmp_fd);
}
for (/* loop over original FDs: */) {
tmp_fd = socket(...);
if (tmpfd != orig_sfd) {
dup2(tmp_fd, orig_sfd);
close(tmp_fd);
}
epoll_ctl(orig_epfd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, orig_sfd, ...);
}
Is that close to what CRIU is doing?
In no place does tmp_fd end up in the epoll rbtree, there.
Everything is keyed w/ orig_sfd and it's underlying file.
