Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual filesystems.
Features:
- Block mode changes on symlinks and rectify our broken semantics
- Report file modifications via fsnotify() for splice
- Allow specifying an explicit timeout for the "rootwait" kernel
command line option. This allows to timeout and reboot instead of
always waiting indefinitely for the root device to show up
- Use synchronous fput for the close system call
Cleanups:
- Get rid of open-coded lockdep workarounds for async io submitters
and replace it all with a single consolidated helper
- Simplify epoll allocation helper
- Convert simple_write_begin and simple_write_end to use a folio
- Convert page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() to use a folio
- Simplify __range_close to avoid pointless locking
- Disable per-cpu buffer head cache for isolated cpus
- Port ecryptfs to kmap_local_page() api
- Remove redundant initialization of pointer buf in pipe code
- Unexport the d_genocide() function which is only used within core
vfs
- Replace printk(KERN_ERR) and WARN_ON() with WARN()
Fixes:
- Fix various kernel-doc issues
- Fix refcount underflow for eventfds when used as EFD_SEMAPHORE
- Fix a mainly theoretical issue in devpts
- Check the return value of __getblk() in reiserfs
- Fix a racy assert in i_readcount_dec
- Fix integer conversion issues in various functions
- Fix LSM security context handling during automounts that prevented
NFS superblock sharing"

Now that we removed ->iterate we don't need to check for either
->iterate or ->iterate_shared in file_needs_f_pos_lock(). Simply check
for ->iterate_shared instead. This will tell us whether we need to
unconditionally take the lock. Not just does it allow us to avoid
checking f_inode's mode it also actually clearly shows that we're
locking because of readdir.

In commit 20ea1e7d13c1 ("file: always lock position for
FMODE_ATOMIC_POS") we ended up always taking the file pos lock, because
pidfd_getfd() could get a reference to the file even when it didn't have
an elevated file count due to threading of other sharing cases.
But Mateusz Guzik reports that the extra locking is actually measurable,
so let's re-introduce the optimization, and only force the locking for
directory traversal.
Directories need the lock for correctness reasons, while regular files
only need it for "POSIX semantics". Since pidfd_getfd() is about
debuggers etc special things that are _way_ outside of POSIX, we can
relax the rules for that case.

Stock code takes a lock trip for every fd in range, but this can be
trivially avoided and real-world consumers do have plenty of already
closed cases.
Just booting Debian 12 with a debug printk shows:
(sh) min 3 max 17 closed 15 empty 0
(sh) min 19 max 63 closed 31 empty 14
(sh) min 4 max 63 closed 0 empty 60
(spawn) min 3 max 63 closed 13 empty 48
(spawn) min 3 max 63 closed 13 empty 48
(mount) min 3 max 17 closed 15 empty 0
(mount) min 19 max 63 closed 32 empty 13
and so on.
While here use more idiomatic naming.
An avoidable relock is left in place to avoid uglifying the code.
The code was not switched to bitmap traversal for the same reason.

The pidfd_getfd() system call allows a caller with ptrace_may_access()
abilities on another process to steal a file descriptor from this
process. This system call is used by debuggers, container runtimes,
system call supervisors, networking proxies etc. So while it is a
special interest system call it is used in common tools.
That ability ends up breaking our long-time optimization in fdget_pos(),
which "knew" that if we had exclusive access to the file descriptor
nobody else could access it, and we didn't need the lock for the file
position.
That check for file_count(file) was always fairly subtle - it depended
on __fdget() not incrementing the file count for single-threaded
processes and thus included that as part of the rule - but it did mean
that we didn't need to take the lock in all those traditional unix
process contexts.
So it's sad to see this go, and I'd love to have some way to re-instate
the optimization. At the same time, the lock obviously isn't ever
contended in the case we optimized, so all we were optimizing away is
the atomics and the cacheline dirtying. Let's see if anybody even
notices that the optimization is gone.

We must prevent the CPU from reordering the files->count read with the
FD table access like this, on architectures where read-read reordering is
possible:
files_lookup_fd_raw()
close_fd()
put_files_struct()
atomic_read(&files->count)
I would like to mark this for stable, but the stable rules explicitly say
"no theoretical races", and given that the FD table pointer and
files->count are explicitly stored in the same cacheline, this sort of
reordering seems quite unlikely in practice...

When a process has a gfs2 file open, the file is keeping a reference on the
underlying gfs2 inode, and the inode is keeping the inode's iopen glock held in
shared mode. In other words, the process depends on the iopen glock of each
open gfs2 file. Expose those dependencies in a new "glockfd" debugfs file.
The new debugfs file contains one line for each gfs2 file descriptor,
specifying the tgid, file descriptor number, and glock name, e.g.,
1601 6 5/816d
This list is compiled by iterating all tasks on the system using find_ge_pid(),
and all file descriptors of each task using task_lookup_next_fd_rcu(). To make
that work from gfs2, export those two functions.

Currently we have 3 primitives for removing an opened file from descriptor
table - pick_file(), __close_fd_get_file() and close_fd_get_file(). Their
calling conventions are rather odd and there's a code duplication for no
good reason. They can be unified -
1) have __range_close() cap max_fd in the very beginning; that way
we don't need separate way for pick_file() to report being past the end
of descriptor table.
2) make {__,}close_fd_get_file() return file (or NULL) directly, rather
than returning it via struct file ** argument. Don't bother with
(bogus) return value - nobody wants that -ENOENT.
3) make pick_file() return NULL on unopened descriptor - the only caller
that used to care about the distinction between descriptor past the end
of descriptor table and finding NULL in descriptor table doesn't give
a damn after (1).
4) lift ->files_lock out of pick_file()
That actually simplifies the callers, as well as the primitives themselves.
Code duplication is also gone...

Jason Donenfeld reports that my commit 1c24a186398f ("fs: fd tables have
to be multiples of BITS_PER_LONG") doesn't work, and the reason is an
embarrassing brown-paper-bag bug.
Yes, we want to align the number of fds to BITS_PER_LONG, and yes, the
reason they might not be aligned is because the incoming 'max_fd'
argument might not be aligned.
But aligining the argument - while simple - will cause a "infinitely
big" maxfd (eg NR_OPEN_MAX) to just overflow to zero. Which most
definitely isn't what we want either.
The obvious fix was always just to do the alignment last, but I had
moved it earlier just to make the patch smaller and the code look
simpler. Duh. It certainly made _me_ look simple.

This has always been the rule: fdtables have several bitmaps in them,
and as a result they have to be sized properly for bitmaps. We walk
those bitmaps in chunks of 'unsigned long' in serveral cases, but even
when we don't, we use the regular kernel bitops that are defined to work
on arrays of 'unsigned long', not on some byte array.
Now, the distinction between arrays of bytes and 'unsigned long'
normally only really ends up being noticeable on big-endian systems, but
Fedor Pchelkin and Alexey Khoroshilov reported that copy_fd_bitmaps()
could be called with an argument that wasn't even a multiple of
BITS_PER_BYTE. And then it fails to do the proper copy even on
little-endian machines.
The bug wasn't in copy_fd_bitmap(), but in sane_fdtable_size(), which
didn't actually sanitize the fdtable size sufficiently, and never made
sure it had the proper BITS_PER_LONG alignment.
That's partly because the alignment historically came not from having to
explicitly align things, but simply from previous fdtable sizes, and
from count_open_files(), which counts the file descriptors by walking
them one 'unsigned long' word at a time and thus naturally ends up doing
sizing in the proper 'chunks of unsigned long'.
But with the introduction of close_range(), we now have an external
source of "this is how many files we want to have", and so
sane_fdtable_size() needs to do a better job.
This also adds that explicit alignment to alloc_fdtable(), although
there it is mainly just for documentation at a source code level. The
arithmetic we do there to pick a reasonable fdtable size already aligns
the result sufficiently.
In fact,clang notices that the added ALIGN() in that function doesn't
actually do anything, and does not generate any extra code for it.
It turns out that gcc ends up confusing itself by combining a previous
constant-sized shift operation with the variable-sized shift operations
in roundup_pow_of_two(). And probably due to that doesn't notice that
the ALIGN() is a no-op. But that's a (tiny) gcc misfeature that doesn't
matter. Having the explicit alignment makes sense, and would actually
matter on a 128-bit architecture if we ever go there.
This also adds big comments above both functions about how fdtable sizes
have to have that BITS_PER_LONG alignment.

Commit 054aa8d439b9 ("fget: check that the fd still exists after getting
a ref to it") fixed a race with getting a reference to a file just as it
was being closed. It was a fairly minimal patch, and I didn't think
re-checking the file pointer lookup would be a measurable overhead,
since it was all right there and cached.
But I was wrong, as pointed out by the kernel test robot.
The 'poll2' case of the will-it-scale.per_thread_ops benchmark regressed
quite noticeably. Admittedly it seems to be a very artificial test:
doing "poll()" system calls on regular files in a very tight loop in
multiple threads.
That means that basically all the time is spent just looking up file
descriptors without ever doing anything useful with them (not that doing
'poll()' on a regular file is useful to begin with). And as a result it
shows the extra "re-check fd" cost as a sore thumb.
Happily, the regression is fixable by just writing the code to loook up
the fd to be better and clearer. There's still a cost to verify the
file pointer, but now it's basically in the noise even for that
benchmark that does nothing else - and the code is more understandable
and has better comments too.
[ Side note: this patch is also a classic case of one that looks very
messy with the default greedy Myers diff - it's much more legible with
either the patience of histogram diff algorithm ]

Jann Horn points out that there is another possible race wrt Unix domain
socket garbage collection, somewhat reminiscent of the one fixed in
commit cbcf01128d0a ("af_unix: fix garbage collect vs MSG_PEEK").
See the extended comment about the garbage collection requirements added
to unix_peek_fds() by that commit for details.
The race comes from how we can locklessly look up a file descriptor just
as it is in the process of being closed, and with the right artificial
timing (Jann added a few strategic 'mdelay(500)' calls to do that), the
Unix domain socket garbage collector could see the reference count
decrement of the close() happen before fget() took its reference to the
file and the file was attached onto a new file descriptor.
This is all (intentionally) correct on the 'struct file *' side, with
RCU lookups and lockless reference counting very much part of the
design. Getting that reference count out of order isn't a problem per
se.
But the garbage collector can get confused by seeing this situation of
having seen a file not having any remaining external references and then
seeing it being attached to an fd.
In commit cbcf01128d0a ("af_unix: fix garbage collect vs MSG_PEEK") the
fix was to serialize the file descriptor install with the garbage
collector by taking and releasing the unix_gc_lock.
That's not really an option here, but since this all happens when we are
in the process of looking up a file descriptor, we can instead simply
just re-check that the file hasn't been closed in the meantime, and just
re-do the lookup if we raced with a concurrent close() of the same file
descriptor.

Pull close_range() cleanup from Christian Brauner:
"This is a cleanup for close_range() which was sent as part of a bugfix
we did some time ago in commit 9b5b872215fe ("file: fix close_range()
for unshare+cloexec").
We used to share more code between some helpers for close_range()
which made retrieving the maximum number of open fds before calling
into the helpers sensible. But with the introduction of
CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC and the need to retrieve the number of maximum fds
once more for CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC that stopped making sense. So the
code was in a dumb in-limbo state.
Fix this by simplifying the code a bit.
The original idea was to only fix the bug itself and make backporting
easy. And since the cleanup wasn't very pressing I left it in
linux-next for a very long time. I didn't pull the patches from the

syzbot reported a bug when putting the last reference to a tasks file
descriptor table. Debugging this showed we didn't recalculate the
current maximum fd number for CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE | CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC
after we unshared the file descriptors table. So max_fd could exceed the
current fdtable maximum causing us to set excessive bits. As a concrete
example, let's say the user requested everything from fd 4 to ~0UL to be
closed and their current fdtable size is 256 with their highest open fd
being 4. With CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE the caller will end up with a new
fdtable which has room for 64 file descriptors since that is the lowest
fdtable size we accept. But now max_fd will still point to 255 and needs
to be adjusted. Fix this by retrieving the correct maximum fd value in
__range_cloexec().

Otherwise io_uring_cancel_files() may be waiting for requests that won't

Go with the first way and do cancellations before setting PF_EXITING and

After introducing CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC syzbot reported a crash when
CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC is specified in conjunction with CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE.
When CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE is specified the caller will receive a private
file descriptor table in case their file descriptor table is currently
shared.
For the case where the caller has requested all file descriptors to be
actually closed via e.g. close_range(3, ~0U, 0) the kernel knows that
the caller does not need any of the file descriptors anymore and will
optimize the close operation by only copying all files in the range from
0 to 3 and no others.
However, if the caller requested CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC together with
CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE the caller wants to still make use of the file
descriptors so the kernel needs to copy all of them and can't optimize.
The original patch didn't account for this and thus could cause oopses
as evidenced by the syzbot report because it assumed that all fds had
been copied. Fix this by handling the CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC case.

"This set of changes ultimately fixes the interaction of posix file

Along the way fcheck and related helpers were renamed to more

There were also many other small changes that fell out, as this is the

When discussing[1] exec and posix file locks it was realized that none
of the callers of get_files_struct fundamentally needed to call
get_files_struct, and that by switching them to helper functions
instead it will both simplify their code and remove unnecessary
increments of files_struct.count. Those unnecessary increments can
result in exec unnecessarily unsharing files_struct which breaking
posix locks, and it can result in fget_light having to fallback to
fget reducing system performance.
Now that get_files_struct has no more users and can not cause the
problems for posix file locking and fget_light remove get_files_struct
so that it does not gain any new users.

The function close_fd_get_file is explicitly a variant of
__close_fd[1]. Now that __close_fd has been renamed close_fd, rename
close_fd_get_file to be consistent with close_fd.
When __alloc_fd, __close_fd and __fd_install were introduced the
double underscore indicated that the function took a struct
files_struct parameter. The function __close_fd_get_file never has so
the naming has always been inconsistent. This just cleans things up
so there are not any lingering mentions or references __close_fd left
in the code.

The function __close_fd was added to support binder[1]. Now that
binder has been fixed to no longer need __close_fd[2] all calls
to __close_fd pass current->files.
Therefore transform the files parameter into a local variable
initialized to current->files, and rename __close_fd to close_fd to
reflect this change, and keep it in sync with the similar changes to
__alloc_fd, and __fd_install.
This removes the need for callers to care about the extra care that
needs to be take if anything except current->files is passed, by
limiting the callers to only operation on current->files.

Simplify the code, and remove the chance of races by reading
RLIMIT_NOFILE only once in f_dupfd.
Pass the read value of RLIMIT_NOFILE into alloc_fd which is the other
location the rlimit was read in f_dupfd. As f_dupfd is the only
caller of alloc_fd this changing alloc_fd is trivially safe.
Further this causes alloc_fd to take all of the same arguments as
__alloc_fd except for the files_struct argument.

As a companion to fget_task and task_lookup_fd_rcu implement
task_lookup_next_fd_rcu that will return the struct file for the first
file descriptor number that is equal or greater than the fd argument
value, or NULL if there is no such struct file.
This allows file descriptors of foreign processes to be iterated
through safely, without needed to increment the count on files_struct.
Some concern[1] has been expressed that this function takes the task_lock
for each iteration and thus for each file descriptor. This place
where this function will be called in a commonly used code path is for
listing /proc/<pid>/fd. I did some small benchmarks and did not see
any measurable performance differences. For ordinary users ls is
likely to stat each of the directory entries and tid_fd_mode called
from tid_fd_revalidae has always taken the task lock for each file
descriptor. So this does not look like it will be a big change in
practice.
At some point is will probably be worth changing put_files_struct to
free files_struct after an rcu grace period so that task_lock won't be
needed at all.

This change renames fcheck_files to files_lookup_fd_rcu. All of the
remaining callers take the rcu_read_lock before calling this function
so the _rcu suffix is appropriate. This change also tightens up the
debug check to verify that all callers hold the rcu_read_lock.
All callers that used to call files_check with the files->file_lock
held have now been changed to call files_lookup_fd_locked.
This change of name has helped remind me of which locks and which
guarantees are in place helping me to catch bugs later in the
patchset.
The need for better names became apparent in the last round of
discussion of this set of changes[1].

To make it easy to tell where files->file_lock protection is being
used when looking up a file create files_lookup_fd_locked. Only allow
this function to be called with the file_lock held.
Update the callers of fcheck and fcheck_files that are called with the
files->file_lock held to call files_lookup_fd_locked instead.
Hopefully this makes it easier to quickly understand what is going on.

The function fcheck despite it's comment is poorly named
as it has no callers that only check it's return value.
All of fcheck's callers use the returned file descriptor.
The same is true for fcheck_files and __fcheck_files.
A new less confusing name is needed. In addition the names
of these functions are confusing as they do not report
the kind of locks that are needed to be held when these
functions are called making error prone to use them.
To remedy this I am making the base functio name lookup_fd
and will and prefixes and sufficies to indicate the rest
of the context.
Name the function (previously called __fcheck_files) that proceeds
from a struct files_struct, looks up the struct file of a file
descriptor, and requires it's callers to verify all of the appropriate
locks are held files_lookup_fd_raw.

When the flag CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC is set, close_range doesn't
immediately close the files but it sets the close-on-exec bit.
It is useful for e.g. container runtimes that usually install a
seccomp profile "as late as possible" before execv'ing the container
process itself. The container runtime could either do:
1 2
- install_seccomp_profile(); - close_range(MIN_FD, MAX_INT, 0);
- close_range(MIN_FD, MAX_INT, 0); - install_seccomp_profile();
- execve(...); - execve(...);
Both alternative have some disadvantages.
In the first variant the seccomp_profile cannot block the close_range
syscall, as well as opendir/read/close/... for the fallback on older
kernels.
In the second variant, close_range() can be used only on the fds
that are not going to be needed by the runtime anymore, and it must be
potentially called multiple times to account for the different ranges
that must be closed.
Using close_range(..., ..., CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC) solves these issues.
The runtime is able to use the existing open fds, the seccomp profile
can block close_range() and the syscalls used for its fallback.

Grab actual references to the files_struct. To avoid circular references
issues due to this, we add a per-task note that keeps track of what
io_uring contexts a task has used. When the tasks execs or exits its
assigned files, we cancel requests based on this tracking.
With that, we can grab proper references to the files table, and no
longer need to rely on stashing away ring_fd and ring_file to check
if the ring_fd may have been closed.

Pull close_range() implementation from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a
range of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling
task.
This is coordinated with the FreeBSD folks which have copied our
version of this syscall and in the meantime have already merged it in
April 2019:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=359836
The syscall originally came up in a discussion around the new mount
API and making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During
this discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall.
First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task.
This can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):
/* that exec is sensitive */
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
/* we don't want anything past stderr here */
close_range(3, ~0U);
execve(....);
The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that
file descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the
fact that we can't just switch them over without massively regressing
userspace. For a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of
closing all file descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service
managers, programming language standard libraries, container managers
etc.).
Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
descriptors by parsing through /proc/<pid>/fd/* and calling close() on
each file descriptor and other hacks. From looking at various
large(ish) userspace code bases this or similar patterns are very
common in service managers, container runtimes, and programming
language runtimes/standard libraries such as Python or Rust.
In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have
procfs mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled
in. In such situations the only way to make sure that all file
descriptors are closed is to call close() on each file descriptor up
to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE, OPEN_MAX trickery.
Based on Linus' suggestion close_range() also comes with a new flag
CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE to more elegantly handle file descriptor dropping
right before exec. This would usually be expressed in the sequence:
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
close_range(3, ~0U);
as pointed out by Linus it might be desirable to have this be a part
of close_range() itself under a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE which
gets especially handy when we're closing all file descriptors above a
certain threshold.

For both pidfd and seccomp, the __user pointer is not used. Update
__receive_fd() to make writing to ufd optional via a NULL check. However,
for the receive_fd_user() wrapper, ufd is NULL checked so an -EFAULT
can be returned to avoid changing the SCM_RIGHTS interface behavior. Add
new wrapper receive_fd() for pidfd and seccomp that does not use the ufd
argument. For the new helper, the allocated fd needs to be returned on
success. Update the existing callers to handle it.

One of the use-cases of close_range() is to drop file descriptors just before
execve(). This would usually be expressed in the sequence:
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
close_range(3, ~0U);
as pointed out by Linus it might be desirable to have this be a part of
close_range() itself under a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE.
This expands {dup,unshare)_fd() to take a max_fds argument that indicates the
maximum number of file descriptors to copy from the old struct files. When the
user requests that all file descriptors are supposed to be closed via
close_range(min, max) then we can cap via unshare_fd(min) and hence don't need
to do any of the heavy fput() work for everything above min.
The patch makes it so that if CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE is requested and we do in
fact currently share our file descriptor table we create a new private copy.
We then close all fds in the requested range and finally after we're done we
install the new fd table.

This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a range
of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling task.
I was contacted by FreeBSD as they wanted to have the same close_range()
syscall as we proposed here. We've coordinated this and in the meantime, Kyle
was fast enough to merge close_range() into FreeBSD already in April:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=359836
and the current plan is to backport close_range() to FreeBSD 12.2 (cf. [2])
once its merged in Linux too. Python is in the process of switching to
close_range() on FreeBSD and they are waiting on us to merge this to switch on
Linux as well: https://bugs.python.org/issue38061
The syscall came up in a recent discussion around the new mount API and
making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During this
discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall (cf. [1]). Note, a
syscall in this manner has been requested by various people over time.
First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task. This
can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):
/* that exec is sensitive */
unshare(CLONE_FILES);
/* we don't want anything past stderr here */
close_range(3, ~0U);
execve(....);
The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that file
descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the fact that
we can't just switch them over without massively regressing userspace. For
a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of closing all file
descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service managers, programming
language standard libraries, container managers etc.).
(Please note, unshare(CLONE_FILES) should only be needed if the calling
task is multi-threaded and shares the file descriptor table with another
thread in which case two threads could race with one thread allocating file
descriptors and the other one closing them via close_range(). For the
general case close_range() before the execve() is sufficient.)
Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
descriptors by parsing through /proc/<pid>/fd/* and calling close() on each
file descriptor. From looking at various large(ish) userspace code bases
this or similar patterns are very common in:
- service managers (cf. [4])
- libcs (cf. [6])
- container runtimes (cf. [5])
- programming language runtimes/standard libraries
- Python (cf. [2])
- Rust (cf. [7], [8])
As Dmitry pointed out there's even a long-standing glibc bug about missing
kernel support for this task (cf. [3]).
In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have procfs
mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled in. In such
situations the only way to make sure that all file descriptors are closed
is to call close() on each file descriptor up to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE,
OPEN_MAX trickery (cf. comment [8] on Rust).
The performance is striking. For good measure, comparing the following
simple close_all_fds() userspace implementation that is essentially just
glibc's version in [6]:
static int close_all_fds(void)
{
int dir_fd;
DIR *dir;
struct dirent *direntp;
dir = opendir("/proc/self/fd");
if (!dir)
return -1;
dir_fd = dirfd(dir);
while ((direntp = readdir(dir))) {
int fd;
if (strcmp(direntp->d_name, ".") == 0)
continue;
if (strcmp(direntp->d_name, "..") == 0)
continue;
fd = atoi(direntp->d_name);
if (fd == dir_fd || fd == 0 || fd == 1 || fd == 2)
continue;
close(fd);
}
closedir(dir);
return 0;
}
to close_range() yields:
1. closing 4 open files:
- close_all_fds(): ~280 us
- close_range(): ~24 us
2. closing 1000 open files:
- close_all_fds(): ~5000 us
- close_range(): ~800 us
close_range() is designed to allow for some flexibility. Specifically, it
does not simply always close all open file descriptors of a task. Instead,
callers can specify an upper bound.
This is e.g. useful for scenarios where specific file descriptors are
created with well-known numbers that are supposed to be excluded from
getting closed.
For extra paranoia close_range() comes with a flags argument. This can e.g.
be used to implement extension. Once can imagine userspace wanting to stop
at the first error instead of ignoring errors under certain circumstances.
There might be other valid ideas in the future. In any case, a flag
argument doesn't hurt and keeps us on the safe side.
From an implementation side this is kept rather dumb. It saw some input
from David and Jann but all nonsense is obviously my own!
- Errors to close file descriptors are currently ignored. (Could be changed
by setting a flag in the future if needed.)
- __close_range() is a rather simplistic wrapper around __close_fd().
My reasoning behind this is based on the nature of how __close_fd() needs
to release an fd. But maybe I misunderstood specifics:
We take the files_lock and rcu-dereference the fdtable of the calling
task, we find the entry in the fdtable, get the file and need to release
files_lock before calling filp_close().
In the meantime the fdtable might have been altered so we can't just
retake the spinlock and keep the old rcu-reference of the fdtable
around. Instead we need to grab a fresh reference to the fdtable.
If my reasoning is correct then there's really no point in fancyfying
__close_range(): We just need to rcu-dereference the fdtable of the
calling task once to cap the max_fd value correctly and then go on
calling __close_fd() in a loop.

Note that this is an internal implementation that is not exported.
Currently, libc seems to not provide an exported version of this
because of missing kernel support to do this.

Rust's solution is slightly different but is equally unperformant.
Rust calls getdtablesize() which is a glibc library function that
simply returns the current RLIMIT_NOFILE or OPEN_MAX values. Rust then
goes on to call close() on each fd. That's obviously overkill for most
tasks. Rarely, tasks - especially non-demons - hit RLIMIT_NOFILE or
OPEN_MAX.
Let's be nice and assume an unprivileged user with RLIMIT_NOFILE set
to 1024. Even in this case, there's a very high chance that in the
common case Rust is calling the close() syscall 1021 times pointlessly
if the task just has 0, 1, and 2 open.
