devproc assumes that when we hold the Proc.debug qlock,
the process will be prevented from exiting. but there is
another race where the process has already exited and
the Proc* slot gets reused. to solve this, on process
creation we also have to acquire the debug qlock while
initializing the fields of the process. this also means
newproc() should only initialize fields *not* protected
by the debug qlock.
always acquire the Proc.debug qlock when changing strings
in the proc structure to avoid doublefree on concurrent
update. for changing the user string, we add a procsetuser()
function that does this for auth.c and devcap.
remove pgrpnote() from pgrp.c and replace by static
postnotepg() in devproc.
avoid the assumption that the Proc* entries returned by
proctab() are continuous.
fixed devproc permission issues:
- make sure only eve can access /proc/trace
- none should only be allowed to read its own /proc/n/text
- move Proc.kp checks into procopen()
pid reuse was not handled correctly, as we where only
checking if a pid had a living process, but there still
could be processes expecting a particular parentpid or
noteid.
this is now addressed with reference counted Pid
structures which are organized in a hash table.
read access to the hash table does not require locks
which will be usefull for dtracy later.
the manpage states that capabilities time out after a minute,
so we add ticks field into the Caphash struct and record the
time when the capability was inserted. freeing old capabilities
is handled in trimcaps(), which makes room for one extra cap
and frees timed out ones.
we also limit the capuse write size to less than 1024 bytes to
prevent denial of service as we have to copy the user buffer.
(memory exhaustion).
we have to check the from user *before* attempting to remove
the capability! the wrong user shouldnt be able to change any
state. this fixes the memory leak of the caphash.
do the hash comparsion with tsmemcmp(), avoiding timing
side channels.
allocate the capabilities in secret memory pool to prevent
debugger access.
