NtQueryVirtualMemory for MemorySectionName does not reliable return the
changed dll file name when another process does move the file around,
and we may end up creating forkable hardlinks to wrong dll files.
So query the file id when loading the dll rather than before fork.
Make stat_real_file_once a method of struct dll, to be more flexible on
where to use. Also, debug print memory section name queried for a dll.
This is a preparation to query the file id when loading the dll.
Rather than newest last write time of all dlls loaded, use the forking
process' windows pid and windows thread id as directory name to create
the forkable hardlinks into. While this may create hardlinks more
often, it does avoid conflicts between dlls not having the newest last
write time.
When the current process has renamed (to bin) a readonly dll, we get
STATUS_TRANSACTION_NOT_ACTIVE for unknown reason when subsequently
creating the forkable hardlink. A workaround is to open the original
file with FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES access, but that fails with permission
denied for users not owning the original file.
* forkable.cc (dll::create_forkable): Retry hardlink creation using the
original file's handle opened with FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES access when the
first attempt fails with STATUS_TRANSACTION_NOT_ACTIVE.
* Rename cygwin_shared->prefer_forkable_hardlinks to
forkable_hardlink_support, with values
0 for Unknown, 1 for Supported, -1 for Unsupported.
Upon first dll loaded ever, dll_list::forkable_ntnamesize checks the
/var/run/cygfork directory to both exist and reside on NTFS, setting
cygwin_shared->forkable_hardlink_support accordingly.
* Replace enum forkables_needs by bool forkables_created: Set
to True by request_forkables after creating forkable hardlinks.
To avoid the need for each process to check the filesystem to detect
that hardlink creation is impossible or disabled, cache this fact in
shared memory. Removing cygfork directory while in use does disable
hardlinks creation. To (re-)enable hardlinks creation, the cygfork
directory has to exist before the first cygwin process does fork.
* forkable.cc (dll_list::forkable_ntnamesize): Short cut
forkables needs to impossible when disabled via shared memory.
(dll_list::update_forkables_needs): When detecting hardlink
creation as impossible (not on NTFS) while still (we are the
first one checking) enabled via shared memory, disable the
shared memory value.
(dll_list::request_forkables): Disable the shared memory value
when hardlinks creation became disabled, that is when the
cygfork directory was removed.
* include/cygwin/version.h: Bump CYGWIN_VERSION_SHARED_DATA 6.
* shared_info.h (struct shared_info): Add member
prefer_forkable_hardlinks. Update CURR_SHARED_MAGIC.
* shared.cc (shared_info::initialize): Initialize
prefer_forkable_hardlinks to 1 (Yes).
In preparation to protect fork() against dll- and exe-updates, create
hardlinks to the main executable and each loaded dll in subdirectories
of /var/run/cygfork/, if that one exists on the NTFS file system.
The directory names consist of the user sid, the main executable's NTFS
IndexNumber, and the most recent LastWriteTime of all involved binaries
(dlls and main executable). Next to the main.exe hardlink we create the
empty file main.exe.local to enable dll redirection.
The name of the mutex to synchronize hardlink creation/cleanup also is
assembled from these directory names, to allow for synchronized cleanup
of even orphaned hardlink directories.
The hardlink to each dynamically loaded dll goes into another directory,
named using the NTFS IndexNumber of the dll's original directory.
* Makefile.in (DLL_OFILES): Add forkable.o.
* dll_init.h (struct dll): Declare member variables fbi, fii,
forkable_ntname. Declare methods nominate_forkable,
create_forkable.
(struct dll_list): Declare enum forkables_needs. Declare member
variables forkables_dirx_size, forkables_dirx_ntname,
forkables_mutex_name, forkables_mutex. Declare private methods
forkable_ntnamesize, prepare_forkables_nomination,
update_forkables_needs, update_forkables, create_forkables,
denominate_forkables, close_mutex, try_remove_forkables,
set_forkables_inheritance, request_forkables. Declare public
static methods ntopenfile, read_fii, read_fbi. Declare public
methods release_forkables, cleanup_forkables. Define public
inline method setup_forkables.
* dll_init.cc (dll_list::alloc): Allocate memory to hold the
name of the hardlink in struct dll member forkable_ntname.
Initialize struct dll members fbi, fii.
(dll_list::load_after_fork): Call release_forkables method.
* fork.cc: Rename public fork function to static dofork, add
with_forkables as bool pointer parameter. Add new fork function
calling dofork. (struct frok): Add bool pointer member
with_forkables, add as constructor parameter.
(frok::parent): Call dlls.setup_forkables before CreateProcessW,
dlls.release_forkables afterwards.
* pinfo.cc (pinfo::exit): Call dlls.cleanup_forkables.
* syscalls.cc (_unlink_nt): Rename public unlink_nt function to
static _unlink_nt, with 'shareable' as additional argument.
(unlink_nt): New, wrap _unlink_nt for original behaviour.
(unlink_nt_shareable): New, wrap _unlink_nt to keep a binary
file still loadable while removing one of its hardlinks.
* forkable.cc: New file.
