Subject: [PATCH] s390: set TIF_RESTARTBLOCK after sys_restart()
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2010 10:59:54 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100127165954.GA14950@us.ibm.com> (raw)

(this is on top of the patch
	's390: actually restart syscalls after sys_restart'
which I sent last Thursday)

We use TIF_RESTARTBLOCK in do_signal() to tell sys_checkpoint()
to mark the thread as needing a sysc_do_restart to restart an
interrupted syscall after sys_restart().

However, as Oren pointed out, if the task receives a signal
after sys_restart() but before returning to userspace, and
enters do_signal, then conditions will not be met to set
TIF_RESTARTBLOCK.  So if the restarted task freezes here and is
checkpointed, then the resulting checkpoint image will not restart
the interrupted syscall.

So, set TIF_RESTARTBLOCK in sys_restart() if TIF_RESTARTBLOCK was set
at checkpoint.  Clear TIF_RESTARTBLOCK in ssyc_do_restart, so that
if we do not go to do_signal right after sys_restart() we don't
mistakenly keep running with that flag.

To test this, add a dummy handler for SIGUSR1 to cr_tests/sleep/sleeptest.c,
open two terminals, and do:

Terminal 1:                             Terminal :
mount -t cgroup -o freezer freezer /cgroup
mkdir /cgroup/1 /cgroup/2
echo $$ > /cgroup/1/tasks
./sleeptest

                                        echo FROZEN > /cgroup/1/freezer.state
                                        checkpoint `pidof sleeptest` > /tmp/out
                                        thaw

restart -F /cgroup/2 < /tmp/out

                                        kill -USR1 `pidof sleeptest`;
                                        echo THAWED > /cgroup/2/freezer.state ;
                                        sleep 0.3;
                                        echo FROZEN > /cgroup/2/freezer.state;
                                        checkpoint `pidof sleeptest` > /tmp/out2;
                                        echo THAWED > /cgroup/2/freezer.state

restart < /tmp/out2

Without this patch, the final restart will immediately exit.  With
this patch, it will restart the sleep.
