[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 0/8] fd leak safety

There's enough here to need a review; some of it probably needs
backporting to stable-1.12.

This probably breaks tests on Haiku or other platforms that have not
been as on-the-ball about atomic CLOEXEC; feel free to report issues
that arise, and I'll help come up with workarounds (even if we end up
leaving a rare fd leak on less-capable systems).

Meanwhile, I'm still working on my promise to add an nbdkit_nanosleep
for use in the delay and stat filters, and which makes nbdkit more
responsive to ^C where it currently waits for a full delay to expire
before exiting.  (Nothing like finding several other pre-requisite
bugs to fix first before getting to my real goal...)

[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 1/8] rate: Pass through delay failures

If nanosleep fails (typically with EINTR because we handled a signal),
we end up not sleeping long enough.  In practice, this patch seldom
makes a difference: directing signals at the nbdkit process tends to
get serviced by the thread running poll(), and when that happens, the
thread blocked in nanosleep() continues uninterrupted. As a result,
nbdkit stalls in exiting because it is waiting for the filter plugin
to quit servicing commands. But if you get lucky (or if you direct the
kill to the specific thread stuck in nanosleep rather than the process
as a whole), then this patch causes us to report early failure with
EINTR mapped to EIO over the wire, at which point, we are back to
practice: the only signals we handle trigger nbdkit to shutdown, so we
may not even have a chance to get our unusual error reported over the
wire.  In theory, we could resume nanosleep where it left off by
passing a non-null second argument, but that only matters if we have a
signal handler whose action doesn't intend to request nbdkit to shut
down soon.

A later patch will add a utility function so that the server can do a
better job, both for preventing short sleeps by resuming on EINTR
(assuming the server ever adds support for a non-fatal signal, whether
that be support for SIGHUP re-reading configuration or support for
SIGUSR1/SIGINFO in providing server statistics so far), and for
terminating sleeps with a better error than EINTR the moment we know a
particular client is shutting down (whether because a signal is
terminating all of nbdkit, or we got NBD_CMD_DISC or detected EOF on
this particular connection).  At that point, we'll only have to tweak
the delay function to use that utility function in place of nanosleep.

[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 4/8] Revert "RHEL 5: Define O_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC."

This reverts commit 25206df20275aeff346d9b86adf5e9be99cc9e43.

An upcoming patch wants to ensure no leaked fds from the server to a
child process.  POSIX has required O_CLOEXEC since 2008, and although
current POSIX doesn't yet specify full atomic interfaces everywhere
such as SOCK_CLOEXEC, it does have an open bug since 2014 [1]
recommending the full set of interfaces that will be mandatory in the
next revision of POSIX.  Most modern OS have caught up to that (RHEL 6
and FreeBSD 10 support SOCK_CLOEXEC, for example), and we're doing
ourselves a disservice by using silent fallback instead of actively
detecting with compile failure on systems that are still behind.

[1] http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=411

Conflicts:
 filters/xz/xzfile.c - The fallback moved from plugins/xz/xzfile.c (and
in fact has been dead code since commit c879d310 made it a filter)

[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 5/8] cow, cache: Better mkostemp fallback

Haiku is seriously behind in adding support for atomic CLOEXEC; in
2018, we added fallback support since it does not yet provide mkostemp
as requested by an upcoming POSIX addition [1].  However, the fallback
we added is rather brain-dead - if mkstemp() fails, we blindly call
fcntl(-1) (which probably changes the errno later reported against
"mkostemp: %s: %m"); and although it is historically unlikely that any
other bits will be set, F_SETFD should be used in a read-modify-write
pattern rather than a blind overwrite pattern.

The fact that our fallback is non-atomic is not a problem in practice,
since we are only using this code during .load (where we are still
more-or-less single-threaded), rather than while another thread may be
actively inside a plugin (such as sh) using fork().

[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 6/8] server: Atomically set CLOEXEC on all fds

The sh plugin makes it easy to test whether we leak fds into a plugin
that fork()s as part of handling a client request:

./nbdkit -U - sh - --run 'qemu-io -r -f raw -c "r 0 1" $nbd'
<<\EOF
case $1 in
get_size) echo 1m;;
pread) ls -l /proc/$$/fd >/dev/tty
  dd iflag=count_bytes count=$3 if=/dev/zero || exit 1 ;;
*) exit 2 ;;
esac
EOF

Pre-patch, this demonstrates that we are leaking internal pipe and
socket fds (the listing should only include fds 0, 1, 2, and whatever
sh has open on the temporary script file).  [Another patch will deal
with leaks in several filters, also observable in this manner.]

What's more, we need CLOEXEC to be set atomically for anything that
can happen in parallel with plugin processing (in our case, during
accept_connection); otherwise, there is a race window:

client1              client2
fd1 = accept
pread
                     fd2 = accept
  fork
                     fcntl(F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)

where the fd2 socket for the second client leaks into the fork for
handling the first client's pread callback.  Use of accept4() is not
yet in POSIX, but has been documented [1] for several years now, and
many implementations already support it (RHEL 6 and FreeBSD 10, for
example).  We can worry about a racy fallback for outliers if we hit
compilation failure.  It is less important whether quit.c use pipe2 or
falls back to pipe/fcntl, as that code is never run in parallel with
plugin code, but as long as we are assuming modern interfaces, fewer
lines of code is nice.

[1] http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=411

For nbdkit_read_password, it is harder to test whether fopen("re") is
supported on all platforms: we won't get a compilation failure.  But
if our unit tests start failing on platforms that have not caught up
to POSIX (my first guess? Haiku, given that the previous patch shows
that it also lacks mkostemp), then we can either fall back to
fdopen(open(O_CLOEXEC)) or just simply document that
nbdkit_read_password is only safe during .config when there are no
other threads running in parallel to worry about a window where the fd
can be leaked.

[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 7/8] filters: Set CLOEXEC on files opened during .config

Any file descriptor opened during .config must eventually be marked
CLOEXEC; otherwise, if our plugin fork()s (such as the sh plugin), we
leak an fd into that plugin (easy enough to observe by modifying the
example in the previous patch to add --filter=log or --filter=stats).
However, we need not worry about atomic CLOEXEC, as config is
effectively single-threaded and before any plugin code in another
thread will be attempting a fork(); put another way, we don't have to
worry about whether fopen("we") is univerally supported yet.

[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 8/8] rate: Atomically set CLOEXEC on fds

The rate filter is potentially opening fds in one thread while another
thread is processing a fork() in the plugin.  Although the file is not
open for long, we MUST atomically use CLOEXEC to avoid fd leaks.  This
one is a bit harder to observe using only the sh plugin, because the
window is small; you'll have better success at catching the leak by
using gdb or recompiling code to insert strategic sleeps.

Although fopen("re") is not required by POSIX yet, it has been
documented for several years [1] and many platforms already support
it. Failure to support it will not be seen at compile time, and it's
hard to state whether our unit tests will catch it; thus, I decided to
also add a comment to another use of fopen("re") that is much more
likely to show if we hit a problematic system.

In fact, I have to tweak this commit message: you CAN'T observe this one
with the sh plugin unless you recompile it to use #define THREAD_MODEL
NBDKIT_THREAD_MODEL_SERIALIZE_REQUESTS, as well as introducing the
timing hacks mentioned above (that's because with our current
SERIALIZE_ALL_REQUESTS, there is never more than one thread in
filter/plugin code at a time).

But it does raise an interesting point - if we hit platforms that are
unable to support atomic CLOEXEC, one possibility is a patch that forces
SERIALIZE_ALL_REQUESTS as the maximum parallelism allowed on that
platform (while remaining at our goal of PARALLEL on more competent
systems) - once we do that, the lacking systems will be serialized to
the point that there is no race window where one thread can fork() while
another is obtaining an fd.

[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 9/8] sh: Document CLOEXEC considerations

As long as we have SERIALIZE_ALL_REQUESTS, we don't have to worry
about one thread processing a fork() while another thread might be
opening an fd.  But add comments to the code to remind us to fix
things if we ever decide to add more parallelism.

As far as I can see Haiku (hrev52698) has O_CLOEXEC but NOT
SOCK_CLOEXEC.  As this version is a little old I'll do an update and
see if newer versions support it.

Re: [Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 9/8] sh: Document CLOEXEC considerations

This patch series is fine, ACK.

Unfortunately it likely breaks Haiku support.  I'd like to hear from
the Haiku folk if they are planning support for atomic CLOEXEC
(SOCK_CLOEXEC, accept4, pipe2, etc.)
