samples: show race-free pidfd metadata access This is a sample program showing userspace how to get race-free access to process metadata from a pidfd. It is rather easy to do and userspace can actually simply reuse code that currently parses a process's status file in procfs. The program can easily be extended into a generic helper suitable for inclusion in a libc to make it even easier for userspace to gain metadata access. Since this came up in a discussion because this API is going to be used in various service managers: A lot of programs will have a whitelist seccomp filter that returns <some-errno> for all new syscalls. This means that programs might get confused if CLONE_PIDFD works but the later pidfd_send_signal() syscall doesn't. Hence, here's a ahead of time check that pidfd_send_signal() is supported: bool pidfd_send_signal_supported() { int procfd = open("/proc/self", O_DIRECTORY \| O_RDONLY \| O_CLOEXEC); if (procfd < 0) return false; /* * A process is always allowed to signal itself so * pidfd_send_signal() should never fail this test. If it does * it must mean it is not available, blocked by an LSM, seccomp, * or other. */ return pidfd_send_signal(procfd, 0, NULL, 0) == 0; } Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian@brauner.io> Co-developed-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: "Eric W.
