This patch introduces sys$perf_event() with two event types:
- PERF_EVENT_MALLOC
- PERF_EVENT_FREE
After the first call to sys$perf_event(), a process will begin keeping
these events in a buffer. When the process dies, that buffer will be
written out to "perfcore" in the current directory unless that filename
is already taken.
This is probably not the best way to do this, but it's a start and will
make it possible to start doing memory allocation profiling. :^)
When using dbg() in the kernel, the output is automatically prefixed
with [Process(PID:TID)]. This makes it a lot easier to understand which
thread is generating the output.
This patch also cleans up some common logging messages and removes the
now-unnecessary "dbg() << *current << ..." pattern.
This syscall is a complement to pledge() and adds the same sort of
incremental relinquishing of capabilities for filesystem access.
The first call to unveil() will "drop a veil" on the process, and from
now on, only unveiled parts of the filesystem are visible to it.
Each call to unveil() specifies a path to either a directory or a file
along with permissions for that path. The permissions are a combination
of the following:
- r: Read access (like the "rpath" promise)
- w: Write access (like the "wpath" promise)
- x: Execute access
- c: Create/remove access (like the "cpath" promise)
Attempts to open a path that has not been unveiled with fail with
ENOENT. If the unveiled path lacks sufficient permissions, it will fail
with EACCES.
Like pledge(), subsequent calls to unveil() with the same path can only
remove permissions, not add them.
Once you call unveil(nullptr, nullptr), the veil is locked, and it's no
longer possible to unveil any more paths for the process, ever.
This concept comes from OpenBSD, and their implementation does various
things differently, I'm sure. This is just a first implementation for
SerenityOS, and we'll keep improving on it as we go. :^)
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
The syscall is now called sys$open(), but it behaves like the old sys$openat().
In userspace, open_with_path_length() is made a wrapper over openat_with_path_length().
This patch adds a new "accept" promise that allows you to call accept()
on an already listening socket. This lets programs set up a socket for
for listening and then dropping "inet" and/or "unix" so that only
incoming (and existing) connections are allowed from that point on.
No new outgoing connections or listening server sockets can be created.
In addition to accept() it also allows getsockopt() with SOL_SOCKET
and SO_PEERCRED, which is used to find the PID/UID/GID of the socket
peer. This is used by our IPC library when creating shared buffers that
should only be accessible to a specific peer process.
This allows us to drop "unix" in WindowServer and LookupServer. :^)
It also makes the debugging/introspection RPC sockets in CEventLoop
based programs work again.
This patch changes how exec() figures out which program image to
actually load. Previously, we opened the path to our main executable in
find_shebang_interpreter_for_executable, read the first page (or less,
if the file was smaller) and then decided whether to recurse with the
interpreter instead. We then then re-opened the main executable in
do_exec.
However, since we now want to parse the ELF header and Program Headers
of an elf image before even doing any memory region work, we can change
the way this whole process works. We open the file and read (up to) the
first page in exec() itself, then pass just the page and the amount read
to find_shebang_interpreter_for_executable. Since we now have that page
and the FileDescription for the main executable handy, we can do a few
things. First, validate the ELF header and ELF program headers for any
shenanigans. ELF32 Little Endian i386 only, please. Second, we can grab
the PT_INTERP interpreter from any ET_DYN files, and open that guy right
away if it exists. Finally, we can pass the main executable's and
optionally the PT_INTERP interpreter's file descriptions down to do_exec
and not have to feel guilty about opening the file twice.
In do_exec, we now have a choice. Are we going to load the main
executable, or the interpreter? We could load both, but it'll be way
easier for the inital pass on the RTLD if we only load the interpreter.
Then it can load the main executable itself like any old shared object,
just, the one with main in it :). Later on we can load both of them
into memory and the RTLD can relocate itself before trying to do
anything. The way it's written now the RTLD will get dibs on its
requested virtual addresses being the actual virtual addresses.
Right now there is a significant amount of boiler plate code required
to validate user mode parameters in syscalls. In an attempt to reduce
this a bit, introduce validate_read_and_copy_typed which combines the
usermode address check and does the copy internally if the validation
passes. This cleans up a little bit of code from a significant amount
of syscalls.
Since a chroot is in many ways similar to a separate root mount, we can also
apply mount flags to it as if it was an actual mount. These flags will apply
whenever the chrooted process accesses its root directory, but not when other
processes access this same directory for the outside. Since it's common to
chdir("/") immediately after chrooting (so that files accessed through the
current directory inherit the same mount flags), this effectively allows one to
apply additional limitations to a process confined inside a chroot.
To this effect, sys$chroot() gains a mount_flags argument (exposed as
chroot_with_mount_flags() in userspace) which can be set to all the same values
as the flags argument for sys$mount(), and additionally to -1 to keep the flags
set for that file system. Note that passing 0 as mount_flags will unset any
flags that may have been set for the file system, not keep them.
While I was updating syscalls to stop passing null-terminated strings,
I added some helpful struct types:
- StringArgument { const char*; size_t; }
- ImmutableBuffer<Data, Size> { const Data*; Size; }
- MutableBuffer<Data, Size> { Data*; Size; }
The Process class has some convenience functions for validating and
optionally extracting the contents from these structs:
- get_syscall_path_argument(StringArgument)
- validate_and_copy_string_from_user(StringArgument)
- validate(ImmutableBuffer)
- validate(MutableBuffer)
There's still so much code around this and I'm wondering if we should
generate most of it instead. Possible nice little project.
In order to preserve the absolute path of the process root, we save the
custody used by chroot() before stripping it to become the new "/".
There's probably a better way to do this.
The chroot() syscall now allows the superuser to isolate a process into
a specific subtree of the filesystem. This is not strictly permanent,
as it is also possible for a superuser to break *out* of a chroot, but
it is a useful mechanism for isolating unprivileged processes.
The VFS now uses the current process's root_directory() as the root for
path resolution purposes. The root directory is stored as an uncached
Custody in the Process object.
Note that I'm developing some helper types in the Syscall namespace as
I go here. Once I settle on some nice types, I will convert all the
other syscalls to use them as well.
The userspace execve() wrapper now measures all the strings and puts
them in a neat and tidy structure on the stack.
This way we know exactly how much to copy in the kernel, and we don't
have to use the SMAP-violating validate_read_str(). :^)
When loading a new executable, we now map the ELF image in kernel-only
memory and parse it there. Then we use copy_to_user() when initializing
writable regions with data from the executable.
Note that the exec() syscall still disables SMAP protection and will
require additional work. This patch only affects kernel-originated
process spawns.
This encourages callers to strongly reference file descriptions while
working with them.
This fixes a use-after-free issue where one thread would close() an
open fd while another thread was blocked on it becoming readable.
Test: Kernel/uaf-close-while-blocked-in-read.cpp
This code never worked, as was never used for anything. We can build
a much better SHM implementation on top of TmpFS or similar when we
get to the point when we need one.
Split a region into two/three if the desired mprotect range is a strict
subset of an existing region. We can then set the access bits on a new
region that is just our desired range and add both the new
desired subregion and the leftovers back to our page tables.
