[PATCH] locks: change POSIX lock ownership on execve when files_struct is displaced
From: Jeff Layton
Date: Sat Mar 17 2018 - 10:25:31 EST
From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>
POSIX mandates that open fds and their associated file locks should be
preserved across an execve. This works, unless the process is
multithreaded at the time that execve is called.
In that case, we'll end up unsharing the files_struct but the locks will
still have their fl_owner set to the address of the old one. Eventually,
when the other threads die and the last reference to the old
files_struct is put, any POSIX locks get torn down since it looks like
a close occurred on them.
The result is that all of your open files will be intact with none of
the locks you held before execve. The simple answer to this is "use OFD
locks", but this is a nasty surprise and it violates the spec.
On a successful execve, change ownership of any POSIX file_locks
associated with the old files_struct to the new one, if we ended up
swapping it out.
