Subject[PATCH RFC v5] pidns: introduce syscall translate_pid
From
Date
Each process have different pids, one for each pid namespace it belongs.
When interaction happens within single pid-ns translation isn't required.
More complicated scenarios needs special handling.

For example:
- reading pid-files or logs written inside container with pid namespace
- attaching with ptrace to tasks from different pid namespace
- passing pids across pid namespaces in any kind of API

Currently there are several interfaces that could be used here:

Pid namespaces are identified by inode number of /proc/[pid]/ns/pid.

Pids for nested Pid namespaces are shown in file /proc/[pid]/status.
In some cases conversion pid -> vpid could be easily done using this
information, but backward translation requires scanning all tasks.

Unix socket automatically translates pid attached to SCM_CREDENTIALS.
This requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN for sending arbitrary pids and entering
into pid namespace, this expose process and could be insecure.

This patch adds new syscall for converting pids between pid namespaces:

pid_t translate_pid(pid_t pid, int source_type, int source,
int target_type, int target);

@source_type and @target_type defines type of following arguments:

TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS - current pid namespace, argument is unused
TRANSLATE_PID_TASK_PIDNS - task pid-ns, argument is task pid
TRANSLATE_PID_FD_PIDNS - pidns fd, argument is file descriptor

Syscall returns pid in target pid-ns or zero if task have no pid there.

Error codes:
-EINVAL - @source or @target couldn't be resolved into pid namespace
-ESRCH - task with @pid is not found in @source pid-namespace

Other pid namespaces are referenced either by pid of any process who
lives inside it or by file descriptor pointing to /proc/[pid]/ns/pid.
Latter method provides better protection against races but in some
cases requires CAP_SYS_PTRACE.

Translate_pid could breach pid isolation and return pids from outer pid
namespaces iff process already has file descriptor pointing to them.


Examples:

- get pid in current pid namespace

translate_pid(pid, TRANSLATE_PID_FD_PIDNS, ns_fd,
TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0)
or
translate_pid(pid, TRANSLATE_PID_TASK_PIDNS, ns_pid,
TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0)

- get pid in other pid namespace

translate_pid(pid, TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0,
TRANSLATE_PID_FD_PIDNS, ns_fd)
or
translate_pid(pid, TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0,
TRANSLATE_PID_TASK_PIDNS, ns_pid)

- get deepest pid

translate_pid(pid, TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0,
TRANSLATE_PID_TASK_PIDNS, pid)

- get pid of init task for namespace

translate_pid(1, TRANSLATE_PID_FD_PIDNS, ns_fd,
TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0)


This syscall also could be used for checking topology of pid namespaces:

- ns1 nests inside ns2

translate_pid(1, TRANSLATE_PID_FD_PIDNS, ns1_fd,
TRANSLATE_PID_FD_PIDNS, ns2_fd) > 1

- task1 lives in same pid-namespace as task2

translate_pid(1, TRANSLATE_PID_TASK_PIDNS, task1_pid,
TRANSLATE_PID_TASK_PIDNS, task2_pid) == 1

- task1 is isolated from task2

translate_pid(task1_pid, TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0,
TRANSLATE_PID_TASK_PIDNS, task2_pid) == 0

- pid is reachable from ns

translate_pid(pid, TRANSLATE_PID_CURRENT_PIDNS, 0,
TRANSLATE_PID_FD_PIDNS, ns_fd) > 0

* use proc_ns_fdget()
* update description
* rebase to next-20150925
* fix conflict with mlock2
v4: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/16/852
* rename into translate_pid()
* remove syscall if CONFIG_PID_NS=n
* drop -pid for parent task
* drop fget-fdget optimizations
* add helper get_pid_ns_by_fd()
