2011-07-27signals: sys_ssetmask/sys_rt_sigsuspend should use set_current_blocked()Oleg Nesterov
sys_ssetmask(), sys_rt_sigsuspend() and compat_sys_rt_sigsuspend() change ->blocked directly. This is not correct, see the changelog in e6fa16ab "signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()" Change them to use set_current_blocked(). Another change is that now we are doing ->saved_sigmask = ->blocked lockless, it doesn't make any sense to do this under ->siglock.

2011-07-21ptrace: fix ptrace_signal() && STOP_DEQUEUED interactionOleg Nesterov
Simple test-case, int main(void) { int pid, status; pid = fork(); if (!pid) { pause(); assert(0); return 0x23; } assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0,0) == 0); assert(wait(&status) == pid); assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP); kill(pid, SIGCONT); // <--- also clears STOP_DEQUEUD assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0,0) == 0); assert(wait(&status) == pid); assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGCONT); assert(ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, SIGSTOP) == 0); assert(wait(&status) == pid); assert(WIFSTOPPED(status) && WSTOPSIG(status) == SIGSTOP); kill(pid, SIGKILL); return 0; } Without the patch it hangs. After the patch SIGSTOP "injected" by the tracer is not ignored and stops the tracee. Note also that if this test-case uses, say, SIGWINCH instead of SIGCONT, everything works without the patch. This can't be right, and this is confusing. The problem is that SIGSTOP (or any other sig_kernel_stop() signal) has no effect without JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED. This means it is simply ignored after PTRACE_CONT unless JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED was set "by accident", say it wasn't cleared after initial SIGSTOP sent by PTRACE_ATTACH. At first glance we could change ptrace_signal() to add STOP_DEQUEUED after return from ptrace_stop(), but this is not right in case when the tracer does not change the reported SIGSTOP and SIGCONT comes in between. This is even more wrong with PT_SEIZED, SIGCONT adds JOBCTL_TRAP_NOTIFY which will be "lost" during the TRAP_STOP | TRAP_NOTIFY report. So lets add STOP_DEQUEUED _before_ we report the signal. It has no effect unless sig_kernel_stop() == T after the tracer resumes us, and in the latter case the pending STOP_DEQUEUED means no SIGCONT in between, we should stop. Note also that if SIGCONT was sent, PT_SEIZED tracee will correctly report PTRACE_EVENT_STOP/SIGTRAP and thus the tracer can notice the fact SIGSTOP was cancelled. Also, move the current->ptrace check from ptrace_signal() to its caller, get_signal_to_deliver(), this looks more natural.

2011-07-20signal: align __lock_task_sighand() irq disabling and RCUPaul E. McKenney
The __lock_task_sighand() function calls rcu_read_lock() with interrupts and preemption enabled, but later calls rcu_read_unlock() with interrupts disabled. It is therefore possible that this RCU read-side critical section will be preempted and later RCU priority boosted, which means that rcu_read_unlock() will call rt_mutex_unlock() in order to deboost itself, but with interrupts disabled. This results in lockdep splats, so this commit nests the RCU read-side critical section within the interrupt-disabled region of code. This prevents the RCU read-side critical section from being preempted, and thus prevents the attempt to deboost with interrupts disabled. It is quite possible that a better long-term fix is to make rt_mutex_unlock() disable irqs when acquiring the rt_mutex structure's ->wait_lock. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2011-06-16ptrace: implement PTRACE_LISTENTejun Heo
The previous patch implemented async notification for ptrace but it only worked while trace is running. This patch introduces PTRACE_LISTEN which is suggested by Oleg Nestrov. It's allowed iff tracee is in STOP trap and puts tracee into quasi-running state - tracee never really runs but wait(2) and ptrace(2) consider it to be running. While ptracer is listening, tracee is allowed to re-enter STOP to notify an async event. Listening state is cleared on the first notification. Ptracer can also clear it by issuing INTERRUPT - tracee will re-trap into STOP with listening state cleared. This allows ptracer to monitor group stop state without running tracee - use INTERRUPT to put tracee into STOP trap, issue LISTEN and then wait(2) to wait for the next group stop event. When it happens, PTRACE_GETSIGINFO provides information to determine the current state. Test program follows. #define PTRACE_SEIZE 0x4206 #define PTRACE_INTERRUPT 0x4207 #define PTRACE_LISTEN 0x4208 #define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL 0x80000000 static const struct timespec ts1s = { .tv_sec = 1 }; int main(int argc, char **argv) { pid_t tracee, tracer; int i; tracee = fork(); if (!tracee) while (1) pause(); tracer = fork(); if (!tracer) { siginfo_t si; ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL, (void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL); ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, tracee, NULL, NULL); repeat: waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED); ptrace(PTRACE_GETSIGINFO, tracee, NULL, &si); if (!si.si_code) { printf("tracer: SIG %d\n", si.si_signo); ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, (void *)(unsigned long)si.si_signo); goto repeat; } printf("tracer: stopped=%d signo=%d\n", si.si_signo != SIGTRAP, si.si_signo); if (si.si_signo != SIGTRAP) ptrace(PTRACE_LISTEN, tracee, NULL, NULL); else ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL); goto repeat; } for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) { nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL); printf("mother: SIGSTOP\n"); kill(tracee, SIGSTOP); nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL); printf("mother: SIGCONT\n"); kill(tracee, SIGCONT); } nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL); kill(tracer, SIGKILL); kill(tracee, SIGKILL); return 0; } This is identical to the program to test TRAP_NOTIFY except that tracee is PTRACE_LISTEN'd instead of PTRACE_CONT'd when group stopped. This allows ptracer to monitor when group stop ends without running tracee. # ./test-listen tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 mother: SIGSTOP tracer: SIG 19 tracer: stopped=1 signo=19 mother: SIGCONT tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 tracer: SIG 18 mother: SIGSTOP tracer: SIG 19 tracer: stopped=1 signo=19 mother: SIGCONT tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 tracer: SIG 18 mother: SIGSTOP tracer: SIG 19 tracer: stopped=1 signo=19 mother: SIGCONT tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 tracer: SIG 18 -v2: Moved JOBCTL_LISTENING check in wait_task_stopped() into task_stopped_code() as suggested by Oleg.

2011-06-16ptrace: implement TRAP_NOTIFY and use it for group stop eventsTejun Heo
Currently there's no way for ptracer to find out whether group stop finished other than polling with INTERRUPT - GETSIGINFO - CONT sequence. This patch implements group stop notification for ptracer using STOP traps. When group stop state of a seized tracee changes, JOBCTL_TRAP_NOTIFY is set, which schedules a STOP trap which is sticky - it isn't cleared by other traps and at least one STOP trap will happen eventually. STOP trap is synchronization point for event notification and the tracer can determine the current group stop state by looking at the signal number portion of exit code (si_status from waitid(2) or si_code from PTRACE_GETSIGINFO). Notifications are generated both on start and end of group stops but, because group stop participation always happens before STOP trap, this doesn't cause an extra trap while tracee is participating in group stop. The symmetry will be useful later. Note that this notification works iff tracee is not trapped. Currently there is no way to be notified of group stop state changes while tracee is trapped. This will be addressed by a later patch. An example program follows. #define PTRACE_SEIZE 0x4206 #define PTRACE_INTERRUPT 0x4207 #define PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL 0x80000000 static const struct timespec ts1s = { .tv_sec = 1 }; int main(int argc, char **argv) { pid_t tracee, tracer; int i; tracee = fork(); if (!tracee) while (1) pause(); tracer = fork(); if (!tracer) { siginfo_t si; ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL, (void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL); ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, tracee, NULL, NULL); repeat: waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED); ptrace(PTRACE_GETSIGINFO, tracee, NULL, &si); if (!si.si_code) { printf("tracer: SIG %d\n", si.si_signo); ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, (void *)(unsigned long)si.si_signo); goto repeat; } printf("tracer: stopped=%d signo=%d\n", si.si_signo != SIGTRAP, si.si_signo); ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL); goto repeat; } for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) { nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL); printf("mother: SIGSTOP\n"); kill(tracee, SIGSTOP); nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL); printf("mother: SIGCONT\n"); kill(tracee, SIGCONT); } nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL); kill(tracer, SIGKILL); kill(tracee, SIGKILL); return 0; } In the above program, tracer keeps tracee running and gets notification of each group stop state changes. # ./test-notify tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 mother: SIGSTOP tracer: SIG 19 tracer: stopped=1 signo=19 mother: SIGCONT tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 tracer: SIG 18 mother: SIGSTOP tracer: SIG 19 tracer: stopped=1 signo=19 mother: SIGCONT tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 tracer: SIG 18 mother: SIGSTOP tracer: SIG 19 tracer: stopped=1 signo=19 mother: SIGCONT tracer: stopped=0 signo=5 tracer: SIG 18 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
2011-06-16ptrace: implement PTRACE_SEIZETejun Heo
PTRACE_ATTACH implicitly issues SIGSTOP on attach which has side effects on tracee signal and job control states. This patch implements a new ptrace request PTRACE_SEIZE which attaches a tracee without trapping it or affecting its signal and job control states. The usage is the same with PTRACE_ATTACH but it takes PTRACE_SEIZE_* flags in @data. Currently, the only defined flag is PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL which is a temporary flag to enable PTRACE_SEIZE. PTRACE_SEIZE will change ptrace behaviors outside of attach itself. The changes will be implemented gradually and the DEVEL flag is to prevent programs which expect full SEIZE behavior from using it before all the behavior modifications are complete while allowing unit testing. The flag will be removed once SEIZE behaviors are completely implemented. * PTRACE_SEIZE, unlike ATTACH, doesn't force tracee to trap. After attaching tracee continues to run unless a trap condition occurs. * PTRACE_SEIZE doesn't affect signal or group stop state. * If PTRACE_SEIZE'd, group stop uses PTRACE_EVENT_STOP trap which uses exit_code of (signr | PTRACE_EVENT_STOP << 8) where signr is one of the stopping signals if group stop is in effect or SIGTRAP otherwise, and returns usual trap siginfo on PTRACE_GETSIGINFO instead of NULL. Seizing sets PT_SEIZED in ->ptrace of the tracee. This flag will be used to determine whether new SEIZE behaviors should be enabled. Test program follows. #define PTRACE_SEIZE 0x4206 #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\n"); nanosleep(&ts1s, NULL); } } if (argc > 1) kill(tracee, SIGSTOP); nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL); ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, tracee, NULL, (void *)(unsigned long)PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL); if (argc > 1) { waitid(P_PID, tracee, NULL, WSTOPPED); ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, NULL); } nanosleep(&ts3s, NULL); printf("tracer: exiting\n"); return 0; } When the above program is called w/o argument, tracee is seized while running and remains running. When tracer exits, tracee continues to run and print out messages. # ./test-seize-simple tracee: alive tracee: alive tracee: alive tracer: exiting tracee: alive tracee: alive When called with an argument, tracee is seized from stopped state and continued, and returns to stopped state when tracer exits. # ./test-seize tracee: alive tracee: alive tracee: alive tracer: exiting # ps -el|grep test-seize 1 T 0 4720 1 0 80 0 - 941 signal ttyS0 00:00:00 test-seize -v2: SEIZE doesn't schedule TRAP_STOP and leaves tracee running as Jan suggested. -v3: PTRACE_EVENT_STOP traps now report group stop state by signr.

2011-06-16job control: introduce JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP and use it for group stop trapTejun Heo
do_signal_stop() implemented both normal group stop and trap for group stop while ptraced. This approach has been enough but scheduled changes require trap mechanism which can be used in more generic manner and using group stop trap for generic trap site simplifies both userland visible interface and implementation. This patch adds a new jobctl flag - JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP. When set, it triggers a trap site, which behaves like group stop trap, in get_signal_to_deliver() after checking for pending signals. While ptraced, do_signal_stop() doesn't stop itself. It initiates group stop if requested and schedules JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP and returns. The caller - get_signal_to_deliver() - is responsible for checking whether TRAP_STOP is pending afterwards and handling it. ptrace_attach() is updated to use JOBCTL_TRAP_STOP instead of JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and __ptrace_unlink() to clear all pending trap bits and TRAPPING so that TRAP_STOP and future trap bits don't linger after detach. While at it, add proper function comment to do_signal_stop() and make it return bool. -v2: __ptrace_unlink() updated to clear JOBCTL_TRAP_MASK and TRAPPING instead of JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK. This avoids accidentally clearing JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME. Spotted by Oleg. -v3: do_signal_stop() updated to return %false without dropping siglock while ptraced and TRAP_STOP check moved inside for(;;) loop after group stop participation. This avoids unnecessary relocking and also will help avoiding unnecessary traps by consuming group stop before handling pending traps. -v4: Jobctl trap handling moved into a separate function - do_jobctl_trap().

2011-06-04ptrace: use bit_waitqueue for TRAPPING instead of wait_chldexitTejun Heo
ptracer->signal->wait_chldexit was used to wait for TRAPPING; however, ->wait_chldexit was already complicated with waker-side filtering without adding TRAPPING wait on top of it. Also, it unnecessarily made TRAPPING clearing depend on the current ptrace relationship - if the ptracee is detached, wakeup is lost. There is no reason to use signal->wait_chldexit here. We're just waiting for JOBCTL_TRAPPING bit to clear and given the relatively infrequent use of ptrace, bit_waitqueue can serve it perfectly. This patch makes JOBCTL_TRAPPING wait use bit_waitqueue instead of signal->wait_chldexit. -v2: Use JOBCTL_*_BIT macros instead of ilog2() as suggested by Linus.

2011-06-04job control: introduce task_set_jobctl_pending()Tejun Heo
task->jobctl currently hosts JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and will host TRAP pending bits too. Setting pending conditions on a dying task may make the task unkillable. Currently, each setting site is responsible for checking for the condition but with to-be-added job control traps this becomes too fragile. This patch adds task_set_jobctl_pending() which should be used when setting task->jobctl bits to schedule a stop or trap. The function performs the followings to ease setting pending bits. * Sanity checks. * If fatal signal is pending or PF_EXITING is set, no bit is set. * STOP_SIGMASK is automatically cleared if new value is being set. do_signal_stop() and ptrace_attach() are updated to use task_set_jobctl_pending() instead of setting STOP_PENDING explicitly. The surrounding structures around setting are changed to fit task_set_jobctl_pending() better but there should be no userland visible behavior difference.

2011-06-04job control: make task_clear_jobctl_pending() clear TRAPPING automaticallyTejun Heo
JOBCTL_TRAPPING indicates that ptracer is waiting for tracee to (re)transit into TRACED. task_clear_jobctl_pending() must be called when either tracee enters TRACED or the transition is cancelled for some reason. The former is achieved by explicitly calling task_clear_jobctl_pending() in ptrace_stop() and the latter by calling it at the end of do_signal_stop(). Calling task_clear_jobctl_trapping() at the end of do_signal_stop() limits the scope TRAPPING can be used and is fragile in that seemingly unrelated changes to tracee's control flow can lead to stuck TRAPPING. We already have task_clear_jobctl_pending() calls on those cancelling events to clear JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING. Cancellations can be handled by making those call sites use JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK instead and updating task_clear_jobctl_pending() such that task_clear_jobctl_trapping() is called automatically if no stop/trap is pending. This patch makes the above changes and removes the fallback task_clear_jobctl_trapping() call from do_signal_stop().

If JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING is set, other STOP bits are cleared together.

2011-05-09ptrace: fix signal->wait_chldexit usage in task_clear_group_stop_trapping()Tejun Heo
GROUP_STOP_TRAPPING waiting mechanism piggybacks on signal->wait_chldexit which is primarily used to implement waiting for wait(2) and friends. When do_wait() waits on signal->wait_chldexit, it uses a custom wake up callback, child_wait_callback(), which expects the child task which is waking up the parent to be passed in as @key to filter out spurious wakeups. task_clear_group_stop_trapping() used __wake_up_sync() which uses NULL @key causing the following oops if the parent was doing do_wait().

To keep the things simple this patch adds the new static helper, __set_task_blocked() which should be called with ->siglock held.

2011-04-28signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()Oleg Nesterov
In short, almost every changing of current->blocked is wrong, or at least can lead to the unexpected results. For example. Two threads T1 and T2, T1 sleeps in sigtimedwait/pause/etc. kill(tgid, SIG) can pick T2 for TIF_SIGPENDING. If T2 calls sigprocmask() and blocks SIG before it notices the pending signal, nobody else can handle this pending shared signal. I am not sure this is bug, but at least this looks strange imho. T1 should not sleep forever, there is a signal which should wake it up. This patch moves the code which actually changes ->blocked into the new helper, set_current_blocked() and changes this code to call retarget_shared_pending() as exit_signals() does. We should only care about the signals we just blocked, we use "newset & ~current->blocked" as a mask. We do not check !sigisemptyset(newblocked), retarget_shared_pending() is cheap unless mask & shared_pending. Note: for this particular case we could simply change sigprocmask() to return -EINTR if signal_pending(), but then we should change other callers and, more importantly, if we need this fix then set_current_blocked() will have more callers and some of them can't restart.

2011-04-04signal: Turn SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED into GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUEDOleg Nesterov
This patch moves SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED from signal_struct->flags to task_struct->group_stop, and thus makes it per-thread. Like SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED can be false-positive after return from get_signal_to_deliver(), this is fine. The only purpose of this bit is: we can drop ->siglock after __dequeue_signal() returns the sig_kernel_stop() signal and before we call do_signal_stop(), in this case we must not miss SIGCONT if it comes in between. But, unlike SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, GROUP_STOP_DEQUEUED can not be false-positive in do_signal_stop() if multiple threads dequeue the sig_kernel_stop() signal at the same time. Consider two threads T1 and T2, SIGTTIN has a hanlder. - T1 dequeues SIGTSTP and sets SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, then it drops ->siglock - SIGCONT comes and clears SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED, SIGTSTP should be cancelled. - T2 dequeues SIGTTIN and sets SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED again. Since we have a handler we should not stop, T2 returns to usermode to run the handler. - T1 continues, calls do_signal_stop() and wrongly starts the group stop because SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED was restored in between. With or without this change: - we need to do something with ptrace_signal() which can return SIGSTOP, but this needs another discussion - SIGSTOP can be lost if it races with the mt exec, will be fixed later.

prepare_signal(SIGCONT) should never set TIF_SIGPENDING or wake up the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE threads. We are going to call complete_signal() which should pick the right thread correctly. All we need is to wake up the TASK_STOPPED threads. If the task was stopped, it can't return to usermode without taking ->siglock. Otherwise we don't care, and the spurious TIF_SIGPENDING can't be useful. The comment says: * If there is a handler for SIGCONT, we must make * sure that no thread returns to user mode before * we post the signal It is not clear what this means. Probably, "when there's only a single thread" and this continues to be true. Otherwise, even if this SIGCONT is not private, with or without this change only one thread can dequeue SIGCONT, other threads can happily return to user mode before before that thread handles this signal. Note also that wake_up_state(t, __TASK_STOPPED) can't race with the task which changes its state, TASK_STOPPED state is protected by ->siglock as well.

Commit da48524eb206 ("Prevent rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfo from spoofing the signal code") made the check on si_code too strict. There are several legitimate places where glibc wants to queue a negative si_code different from SI_QUEUE: - This was first noticed with glibc's aio implementation, which wants to queue a signal with si_code SI_ASYNCIO; the current kernel causes glibc's tst-aio4 test to fail because rt_sigqueueinfo() fails with EPERM. - Further examination of the glibc source shows that getaddrinfo_a() wants to use SI_ASYNCNL (which the kernel does not even define). The timer_create() fallback code wants to queue signals with SI_TIMER. As suggested by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>, loosen the check to forbid only the problematic SI_TKILL case.

2011-03-23job control: Don't send duplicate job control stop notification while ptracedTejun Heo
Just as group_exit_code shouldn't be generated when a PTRACE_CONT'd task re-enters job control stop, notifiction for the event should be suppressed too. The logic is the same as the group_exit_code generation suppression in do_signal_stop(), if SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED is already set, the task is re-entering job control stop without intervening SIGCONT and the notifications should be suppressed. Test case follows. #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <time.h> #include <sys/ptrace.h> #include <sys/wait.h> static const struct timespec ts100ms = { .tv_nsec = 100000000 }; static pid_t tracee, tracer; static const char *pid_who(pid_t pid) { return pid == tracee ?

2011-03-23job control: Notify the real parent of job control events regardless of ptraceTejun Heo
With recent changes, job control and ptrace stopped states are properly separated and accessible to the real parent and the ptracer respectively; however, notifications of job control stopped/continued events to the real parent while ptraced are still missing. A ptracee participates in group stop in ptrace_stop() but the completion isn't notified. If participation results in completion of group stop, notify the real parent of the event. The ptrace and group stops are separate and can be handled as such. However, when the real parent and the ptracer are in the same thread group, only the ptrace stop event is visible through wait(2) and the duplicate notifications are different from the current behavior and are confusing. Suppress group stop notification in such cases. The continued state is shared between the real parent and the ptracer but is only meaningful to the real parent. Always notify the real parent and notify the ptracer too for backward compatibility. Similar to stop notification, if the real parent is the ptracer, suppress a duplicate notification. Test case follows. #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <time.h> #include <errno.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/ptrace.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main(void) { const struct timespec ts100ms = { .tv_nsec = 100000000 }; pid_t tracee, tracer; siginfo_t si; int i; tracee = fork(); if (tracee == 0) { while (1) { printf("tracee: SIGSTOP\n"); raise(SIGSTOP); nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL); printf("tracee: SIGCONT\n"); raise(SIGCONT); nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL); } } waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED | WNOHANG | WNOWAIT); tracer = fork(); if (tracer == 0) { nanosleep(&ts100ms, NULL); ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, tracee, NULL, NULL); for (i = 0; i < 11; i++) { si.si_pid = 0; waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED); if (si.si_pid && si.si_code == CLD_TRAPPED) ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, tracee, NULL, (void *)(long)si.si_status); } printf("tracer: EXITING\n"); return 0; } while (1) { si.si_pid = 0; waitid(P_PID, tracee, &si, WSTOPPED | WCONTINUED | WEXITED); if (si.si_pid) printf("mommy : WAIT status=%02d code=%02d\n", si.si_status, si.si_code); } return 0; } Before this patch, while ptraced, the real parent doesn't get notifications for job control events, so although it can access those events, the later waitid(2) call never wakes up. tracee: SIGSTOP mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05 tracee: SIGCONT tracee: SIGSTOP tracee: SIGCONT tracee: SIGSTOP tracee: SIGCONT tracee: SIGSTOP tracer: EXITING mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05 ^C After this patch, it works as expected. tracee: SIGSTOP mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05 tracee: SIGCONT mommy : WAIT status=18 code=06 tracee: SIGSTOP mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05 tracee: SIGCONT mommy : WAIT status=18 code=06 tracee: SIGSTOP mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05 tracee: SIGCONT mommy : WAIT status=18 code=06 tracee: SIGSTOP tracer: EXITING mommy : WAIT status=19 code=05 ^C -v2: Oleg pointed out that * Group stop notification to the real parent should also happen when ptracer detach races with ptrace_stop(). * real_parent_is_ptracer() should be testing thread group equality not the task itself as wait(2) and stop/cont notifications are normally thread-group wide.

2011-03-23job control: Job control stop notifications should always go to the real parentTejun Heo
The stopped notifications in do_signal_stop() and exit_signals() are always for the completion of job control. The one in do_signal_stop() may be delivered to the ptracer if PTRACE_ATTACH races with notification and the one in exit_signals() if task exits while ptraced. In both cases, the notifications are meaningless and confusing to the ptracer as it never accesses the group stop state while the real parent would miss notifications for the events it is watching. Make sure these notifications always go to the real parent by calling do_notify_parent_cld_stop() with %false @for_ptrace.
