[PATCH] tcp_splice: Fix side in OUT_WAIT flag setting
by Stefano Brivio 06 Aug '24

06 Aug '24

If the "from" (input) side for a given transfer is 0, and we can't complete the write right away, what we need to be waiting for is for output readiness on side 1, not 0, and the other way around as well. This causes random transfer failures for local TCP connections, depending if we ever need to wait for output readiness.

[PATCH] util: In ASSERT(), use "fprintf(stderr, ...)" rather than err(...)
by Laurent Vivier 06 Aug '24

06 Aug '24

We use our own implementation of assert() because the glic implementation uses syscalls that aren't in our seccomp filter, see 7a8ed9459dfe ("Make assertions actually useful"). And we replaced it by an err(), followed by an abort() (that is also catched by seccomp). We don't have a coredump or a backtrace but we have at least the error message... only if logging is enabled. As this kind of information is needed in any case, replace the "err()" function by an "fprintf(stderr, ...)".

[PATCH] log, passt: Keep printing to stderr when passt is running in foreground
by Stefano Brivio 06 Aug '24

06 Aug '24

There are two cases where we want to stop printing to stderr: if it's closed, and if pasta spawned a shell (and --debug wasn't given). But if passt is running in foreground, we currently stop to report any message, even error messages, once we're ready, as reported by Laurent, because we set the log_runtime flag, which we use to indicate we're ready, regardless of whether we're running in foreground or not. Turn that flag (back) to log_stderr, and set it only when we really want to stop printing to stderr.

[PATCH] util: Use unsigned (size_t) value for iov length
by David Gibson 06 Aug '24

06 Aug '24

The "correct" type for the length of an IOV is unclear: writev() and readv() use an int, but sendmsg() and recvmsg() use a size_t. Using the unsigned size_t has some advantages, though, and it makes more sense for the case of write_remainder. Using size_t throughout here means we don't have a signed vs. unsigned comparison, and we don't have to deal with the case of iov_skip_bytes() returning a value which becomes negative when assigned to an integer. I believe this should fix a Coverity reported integer overflow that's showing up on openscanhub. It's not totally clear from the report what it thinks the path is, but it's on an (iovcnt - i) a few lines later. With both having unsigned type, the loop condition ensures this can't underflow.

[PATCH] pasta: Save errno on signal handler entry, restore on return when needed
by Stefano Brivio 03 Aug '24

03 Aug '24

Ed reported this: # Error: pasta failed with exit code 1: # Couldn't drop cap 3 from bounding set # : No child processes in a Podman CI run with tests being run in parallel. The error message itself, by the way, is fixed by commit 1cd773081f12 ("log: Drop newlines in the middle of the perror()-like messages"), but how can we possibly get ECHILD as failure code for prctl()? Well, we don't, but if we exit early enough, pasta_child_handler() might run before we're even done with isolation steps, and it calls waitid(), which sets errno. We need to restore it before returning from the signal handler (if we return after calling functions that might set it), as signal-safety(7) also implies: Fetching and setting the value of errno is async-signal-safe provided that the signal handler saves errno on entry and restores its value before returning. Eventually, we'll probably need to switch to signalfd(2) the day we want to implement multithreading, but this will do for the moment.
