* Update PIDFD_* constants for Linux 6.9Joseph Myers2024-05-231-8/+7
| | | | | | | | Linux 6.9 adds some more PIDFD_* constants. Add them to glibc's sys/pidfd.h, including updating comments that said FLAGS was reserved and must be 0, along with updating tst-pidfd-consts.py. Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.

* linux: Add pidfd_getpidAdhemerval Zanella Netto2023-09-051-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This interface allows to obtain the associated process ID from the process file descriptor. It is done by parsing the procps fdinfo information. Its prototype is: pid_t pidfd_getpid (int fd) It returns the associated pid or -1 in case of an error and sets the errno accordingly. The possible errno values are those from open, read, and close (used on procps parsing), along with: - EBADF if the FD is negative, does not have a PID associated, or if the fdinfo fields contain a value larger than pid_t. - EREMOTE if the PID is in a separate namespace. - ESRCH if the process is already terminated. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu on Linux 4.15 (no CLONE_PIDFD or waitid support), Linux 5.4 (full support), and Linux 6.2. Reviewed-by: Florian Weimer <fweimer@redhat.com>

* linux: Add pidfd_send_signalAdhemerval Zanella2022-05-171-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was added on Linux 5.1(3eb39f47934f9d5a3027fe00d906a45fe3a15fad) as a way to avoid the race condition of using kill (where PID might be reused by the kernel between between obtaining the pid and sending the signal). If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then pidfd_send_signal is equivalent to kill. If it is not NULL pidfd_send_signal is equivalent to rt_sigqueueinfo.

* linux: Add pidfd_getfdAdhemerval Zanella2022-05-171-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | This was added on Linux 5.6 (8649c322f75c96e7ced2fec201e123b2b073bf09) as a way to retrieve a file descriptors for another process though pidfd (created either with CLONE_PIDFD or pidfd_getfd). The functionality is similar to recvmmsg SCM_RIGHTS. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> Tested-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>

This was added on Linux 5.3 (32fcb426ec001cb6d5a4a195091a8486ea77e2df) as a way to retrieve a pid file descriptors for process that has not been created CLONE_PIDFD (by usual fork/clone). Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> Tested-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
