Instead, use the FixedCharBuffer class to ensure we always use a static
buffer storage for these names. This ensures that if a Process or a
Thread were created, there's a guarantee that setting a new name will
never fail, as only copying of strings should be done to that static
storage.
The limits which are set are 32 characters for processes' names and 64
characters for thread names - this is because threads' names could be
more verbose than processes' names.
These 4 fields were made `Atomic` in
c3f668a758, at which time these were still
accessed unserialized and TOCTOU bugs could happen. Later, in
8ed06ad814, we serialized access to these
fields in a number of helper methods, removing the need for `Atomic`.
The SID was duplicated between the process credentials and protected
data. And to make matters worse, the credentials SID was not updated in
sys$setsid.
This patch fixes this by removing the SID from protected data and
updating the credentials SID everywhere.
Now that it's no longer using LockRefPtr, we can actually move it into
protected data. (LockRefPtr couldn't be stored there because protected
data is immutable at times, and LockRefPtr uses some of its own bits
for locking.)
- Instead of taking the first new thread as an out-parameter, we now
bundle the process and its first thread in a struct and use that
as the return value.
- Make all Process factory functions return ErrorOr. Use this to convert
some places to more TRY().
- Drop the "try_" prefix on Process factory functions.
This is done with 2 major steps:
1. Remove JailManagement singleton and use a structure that resembles
what we have with the Process object. This is required later for the
second step in this commit, but on its own, is a major change that
removes this clunky singleton that had no real usage by itself.
2. Use IntrusiveLists to keep references to Process objects in the same
Jail so it will be much more straightforward to iterate on this kind
of objects when needed. Previously we locked the entire Process list
and we did a simple pointer comparison to check if the checked
Process we iterate on is in the same Jail or not, which required
taking multiple Spinlocks in a very clumsy and heavyweight way.
To accomplish this, we add another VeilState which is called
LockedInherited. The idea is to apply exec unveil data, similar to
execpromises of the pledge syscall, on the current exec'ed program
during the execve sequence. When applying the forced unveil data, the
veil state is set to be locked but the special state of LockedInherited
ensures that if the new program tries to unveil paths, the request will
silently be ignored, so the program will continue running without
receiving an error, but is still can only use the paths that were
unveiled before the exec syscall. This in turn, allows us to use the
unveil syscall with a special utility to sandbox other userland programs
in terms of what is visible to them on the filesystem, and is usable on
both programs that use or don't use the unveil syscall in their code.
Our implementation for Jails resembles much of how FreeBSD jails are
working - it's essentially only a matter of using a RefPtr in the
Process class to a Jail object. Then, when we iterate over all processes
in various cases, we could ensure if either the current process is in
jail and therefore should be restricted what is visible in terms of
PID isolation, and also to be able to expose metadata about Jails in
/sys/kernel/jails node (which does not reveal anything to a process
which is in jail).
A lifetime model for the Jail object is currently plain simple - there's
simpy no way to manually delete a Jail object once it was created. Such
feature should be carefully designed to allow safe destruction of a Jail
without the possibility of releasing a process which is in Jail from the
actual jail. Each process which is attached into a Jail cannot leave it
until the end of a Process (i.e. when finalizing a Process). All jails
are kept being referenced in the JailManagement. When a last attached
process is finalized, the Jail is automatically destroyed.
Now that AddressSpace itself is always SpinlockProtected, we don't
need to also wrap the RegionTree. Whoever has the AddressSpace locked
is free to poke around its tree.
This forces anyone who wants to look into and/or manipulate an address
space to lock it. And this replaces the previous, more flimsy, manual
spinlock use.
Note that pointers *into* the address space are not safe to use after
you unlock the space. We've got many issues like this, and we'll have
to track those down as wlel.
This makes locking them much more straightforward, and we can remove
a bunch of confusing use of AddressSpace::m_lock. That lock will also
be converted to use of SpinlockProtected in a subsequent patch.
This ensures that both mutable and immutable access to the protected
data of a process is serialized.
Note that there may still be multiple TOCTOU issues around this, as we
have a bunch of convenience accessors that make it easy to introduce
them. We'll need to audit those as well.
By protecting all the RefPtr<Custody> objects that may be accessed from
multiple threads at the same time (with spinlocks), we remove the need
for using LockRefPtr<Custody> (which is basically a RefPtr with a
built-in spinlock.)
This patch adds a new object to hold a Process's user credentials:
- UID, EUID, SUID
- GID, EGID, SGID, extra GIDs
Credentials are immutable and child processes initially inherit the
Credentials object from their parent.
Whenever a process changes one or more of its user/group IDs, a new
Credentials object is constructed.
Any code that wants to inspect and act on a set of credentials can now
do so without worrying about data races.
Until now, our kernel has reimplemented a number of AK classes to
provide automatic internal locking:
- RefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr
- WeakPtr
- Weakable
This patch renames the Kernel classes so that they can coexist with
the original AK classes:
- RefPtr => LockRefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr => NonnullLockRefPtr
- WeakPtr => LockWeakPtr
- Weakable => LockWeakable
The goal here is to eventually get rid of the Lock* classes in favor of
using external locking.
This fixes an issue where failing the fork due to OOM or other error,
we'd end up destroying the Process too early. By the time we got to
WaitBlockerSet::finalize(), it was long gone.
Until the thread is first set as Runnable at the end of sys$fork, its
state is Invalid, and as a result, the Finalizer which is searching for
Dying threads will never find it if the syscall short-circuits due to
an error condition like OOM. This also meant the parent Process of the
thread would be leaked as well.
This patch move AddressSpace (the per-process memory manager) to using
the new atomic "place" APIs in RegionTree as well, just like we did for
MemoryManager in the previous commit.
This required updating quite a few places where VM allocation and
actually committing a Region object to the AddressSpace were separated
by other code.
All you have to do now is call into AddressSpace once and it'll take
care of everything for you.
Previously we would crash the process immediately when a promise
violation was found during a syscall. This is error prone, as we
don't unwind the stack. This means that in certain cases we can
leak resources, like an OwnPtr / RefPtr tracked on the stack. Or
even leak a lock acquired in a ScopeLockLocker.
To remedy this situation we move the promise violation handling to
the syscall handler, right before we return to user space. This
allows the code to follow the normal unwind path, and grantees
there is no longer any cleanup that needs to occur.
The Process::require_promise() and Process::require_no_promises()
functions were modified to return ErrorOr<void> so we enforce that
the errors are always propagated by the caller.
This change lays the foundation for making the require_promise return
an error hand handling the process abort outside of the syscall
implementations, to avoid cases where we would leak resources.
It also has the advantage that it makes removes a gs pointer read
to look up the current thread, then process for every syscall. We
can instead go through the Process this pointer in most cases.
We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.
Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)
