Debugger tries to resume both threads # and does # # ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, T); # ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, L); # # If the sub-thread T execs in between, the 2nd PTRACE_CONT doesn not # resume the old leader L, it resumes the post-exec thread T which was # actually now stopped in PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC. In this case the # PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC event is lost, and the tracer can't know that the # tracee changed its pid. # # This patch makes ptrace() fail in this case until debugger does wait() # and consumes PTHREAD_EVENT_EXEC which reports old_pid. This affects all # ptrace requests except the "asynchronous" PTRACE_INTERRUPT/KILL. # # The patch doesn't add the new PTRACE_ option to not complicate the API, # and I _hope_ this won't cause any noticeable regression: # # - If debugger uses PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC and the thread did an exec # and the tracer does a ptrace request without having consumed # the exec event, it's 100% sure that the thread the ptracer # thinks it is targeting does not exist anymore, or isn't the # same as the one it thinks it is targeting. # # - To some degree this patch adds nothing new. In the scenario # above ptrace(L) can fail with -ESRCH if it is called after the # execing sub-thread wakes the leader up and before it "steals" # the leader's pid. # # Test-case: # # #include # #include # #include # #include # #include # #include # #include # #include # # void *tf(void *arg) # { # execve("/usr/bin/true", NULL, NULL); # assert(0); # # return NULL; # } # # int main(void) # { # int leader = fork(); # if (!leader) { # kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP); # # pthread_t th; # pthread_create(&th, NULL, tf, NULL); # for (;;) # pause(); # # return 0; # } # # waitpid(leader, NULL, WSTOPPED); # # ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, leader, 0, # PTRACE_O_TRACECLONE | PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC); # waitpid(leader, NULL, 0); # # ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, leader, 0,0); # waitpid(leader, NULL, 0); # # int status, thread = waitpid(-1, &status, 0); # assert(thread > 0 && thread != leader); # assert(status == 0x80137f); # # ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, thread, 0,0); # /* # * waitid() because waitpid(leader, &status, WNOWAIT) does not # * report status.
