samples: show race-free pidfd metadata access This is a sample program showing userspace how to get race-free access to process metadata from a pidfd. It is rather easy to do and userspace can actually simply reuse code that currently parses a process's status file in procfs. The program can easily be extended into a generic helper suitable for inclusion in a libc to make it even easier for userspace to gain metadata access. Since this came up in a discussion because this API is going to be used in various service managers: A lot of programs will have a whitelist seccomp filter that returns <some-errno> for all new syscalls. This means that programs might get confused if CLONE_PIDFD works but the later pidfd_send_signal() syscall doesn't. Hence, here's a ahead of time check that pidfd_send_signal() is supported: bool pidfd_send_signal_supported() { int procfd = open("/proc/self", O_DIRECTORY \| O_RDONLY \| O_CLOEXEC); if (procfd < 0) return false; /* * A process is always allowed to signal itself so * pidfd_send_signal() should never fail this test. If it does * it must mean it is not available, blocked by an LSM, seccomp, * or other. */ return pidfd_send_signal(procfd, 0, NULL, 0) == 0; } Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian@brauner.io> Co-developed-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: "Eric W.

kbuild: introduce hostprogs-always-y and userprogs-always-y To build host programs, you need to add the program names to 'hostprogs' to use the necessary build rule, but it is not enough to build them because there is no dependency. There are two types of host programs: built as the prerequisite of another (e.g. gen_crc32table in lib/Makefile), or always built when Kbuild visits the Makefile (e.g. genksyms in scripts/genksyms/Makefile). The latter is typical in Makefiles under scripts/, which contains host programs globally used during the kernel build. To build them, you need to add them to both 'hostprogs' and 'always-y'. This commit adds hostprogs-always-y as a shorthand. The same applies to user programs. net/bpfilter/Makefile builds bpfilter_umh on demand, hence always-y is unneeded. In contrast, programs under samples/ are added to both 'userprogs' and 'always-y' so they are always built when Kbuild visits the Makefiles. userprogs-always-y works as a shorthand.

samples: pidfd: build sample program for target architecture This userspace program includes UAPI headers exported to usr/include/. 'make headers' always works for the target architecture (i.e. the same architecture as the kernel), so the sample program should be built for the target as well. Kbuild now supports 'userprogs' for that. I also guarded the CONFIG option by 'depends on CC_CAN_LINK' because $(CC) may not provide libc.
