This is just like lock_generic(), but applies the lock with a timeout.
This requires jumping through some hoops by executing things in a child
process, so that we can abort if necessary via a timer. Linux after all
has no native way to take file locks with a timeout.
Sometimes it makes sense to hard kill a client if we die. Let's hence
add a third FORK_DEATHSIG flag for this purpose: FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGKILL.
To make things less confusing this also renames FORK_DEATHSIG to
FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGTERM to make clear it sends SIGTERM. We already had
FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGINT, hence this makes things nicely symmetric.
A bunch of users are switched over for FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGKILL where we
know it's safe to abort things abruptly. This should make some kernel
cases more robust, since we cannot get confused by signal masks or such.
While we are at it, also fix a bunch of bugs where we didn't take
FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGINT into account in safe_fork()
This is just like FORMAT_PROC_FD_PATH() but goes via the PID number
rather than the "self" symlink.
This is useful whenever we want to generate a path that is useful
outside of our local scope.
Follow-up for 8b45281daa
and preparation for later commits.
Since libcs are more interested in the POSIX `fchmodat(3)`, they are
unlikely to provide a direct wrapper for this syscall. Thus, the headers
we examine to set `HAVE_*` are picked somewhat arbitrarily.
Also, hook up `try_fchmodat2()` in `test-seccomp.c`. (Also, correct that
function's prototype, despite the fact that mistake would not matter in
practice)

If we use CHASE_PARENT on a path ending in ".." then things are a bit
weird, because we the last path we look at is actually the *parent* and not
the *child* of the preceeding path. Hence we cannot just return the 2nd
to last fd we look at. We have to correct it, by going *two* levels up,
to get to the actual parent, and make sure CHASE_PARENT does what it
should.
Example: for the path /a/b/c chase() with CHASE_PARENT will return
/a/b/c as path, and the fd returned points to /a/b. All good. But now,
for the path /a/b/c/.. chase() with CHASE_PARENT would previously return
/a/b as path (which is OK) but the fd would point to /a/b/c, which is
*not* the parent of /a/b, after all! To get to the actual parent of
/a/b we have to go *two* levels up to get to /a.
Very confusing. But that's what we here for, no?
@mrc0mmand ran into this in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/28891#issuecomment-1782833722
We use it for more than just pipe() arrays. For example also for
socketpair(). Hence let's give it a generic name.
Also add EBADF_TRIPLET to mirror this for things like
stdin/stdout/stderr arrays, which we use a bunch of times.
This is just like cg_is_delegate() but operates on an fd instead of a
cgroup path.
Sooner or later we should access cgroupfs mostly via fds rather than
paths, but we aren't there yet. But let's at least get started.
Automatically softreboot if the nextroot has been set up with an OS
tree, or automatically kexec if a kernel has been loaded with kexec
--load.
Add SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_AUTO_KEXEC and SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_AUTO_SOFT_REBOOT to
skip the automated switchover.
Even more than with the previous commit, this is not a trivial function
and there's no reason to believe this will actually be inlined nor that
it would be beneficial.
The function isn't necessarily fast (it's O(n)), and there's no reason
to have it defined as inline function, since it's neither fast, nor
entirely trivial.
This is preparation for #28891, which adds a bunch more helpers around
"struct iovec", at which point this really deserves its own .c/.h file.
The idea is that we sooner or later can consider "struct iovec" as an
entirely generic mechanism to reference some binary blob, and is the
go-to type for this purpose whenever we need one.
We usually check return value of syscalls or glibc functions by it is
negative or not, something like that `if (stat(path, &st) < 0)`.
Let's also use the same style for lseek() and friends even the type of
their return value is off_t.
Note, fseeko() returns int, instead of off_t.
