[PATCH 01/16][cr][v3]: Add uid, euid params to f_modown()

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Checkpoint/restart of file-owner.

Add uid, euid parameters to f_modown(). These parameters will be needed
when restarting an application (and hence restoring the file information),
from a checkpoint image.

[PATCH 02/16][cr][v3]: Add uid, euid params to __f_setown()

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Instead of letting __f_setown() use the UID and EUID of the calling process,
pass them in as parameters.

This modified interface will be useful when checkpointing and restarting an
application that has a 'file owner' specified for an open file.  When
checkpointing the application, the UID and EUID of the process setting up
the owner are saved in the checkpoint image.

When the application is restarted, we use the UID and EUID values saved in
the checkpoint-image, rather than that of the calling process.

Changelog[v2]:
	- [Matthew Wilcox] Rather than a new __f_setown_uid() interface add
	  the uid parameters to __f_setown() itself.

[PATCH 03/16][cr][v3]: Checkpoint file-owner information

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Checkpoint the file->f_owner information for an open file. This
information will be used to restore the file-owner information
when the application is restarted from the checkpoint.

The file->f_owner information is "private" to each 'struct file' i.e.
fown_struct is not an external object shared with other file structures.
So the information can directly be added to the 'ckpt_hdr_file' object.

[PATCH 04/16][cr][v3]: Restore file_owner info

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Restore the file-owner information for each 'struct file'.  This is
essentially is like a new fcntl(F_SETOWN) and fcntl(F_SETSIG) calls,
except that the pid, uid, euid and signum values are read from the
checkpoint image.

Changelog[v3]:
	- [Oren Laadan]: Ensure find_vpid() found a valid pid before
	  making it the file owner.
Changelog[v2]:
	- [Matt Helsley, Serge Hallyn]: Don't trust uids in checkpoint image.
	  (added CAP_KILL check)
	- Check that signal number read from the checkpoint image is valid.
	  (not sure it is required, since its an incomplete check for tampering)

__f_setown() does not check its pid_type argument - you need
to sanitize here, no ?

(and not that I expect the PIDTYPE_... will ever change, but -
possibly encode the PIDTYPE_... types into CKPT_PIDTYPE_... )

__f_setown() does not check its pid_type argument - you need
to sanitize here, no ?

(and not that I expect the PIDTYPE_... will ever change, but -
possibly encode the PIDTYPE_... types into CKPT_PIDTYPE_... )

[PATCH 05/16][cr][v3]: Move file_lock macros into linux/fs.h

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Move IS_POSIX(), IS_FLOCK(), IS_LEASE() and 'for_each_lock()' into
include/linux/fs.h since these are also needed to checkpoint/restart
file-locks.

[PATCH 06/16][cr][v3]: Checkpoint file-locks

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

While checkpointing each file-descriptor, find all the locks on the
file and save information about the lock in the checkpoint-image.
A follow-on patch will use this informaiton to restore the file-locks.

Changelog[v3]:
	[Oren Laadan] Add a missing (loff_t) type cast and use a macro
		to set the marker/dummy file lock

Changelog[v2]:
	[Matt Helsley]: Use fixed sizes (__s64) instead of 'loff_t' in
		'struct ckpt_hdr_file_lock'.
	[Matt Helsley, Serge Hallyn]: Highlight new use of BKL (using
		lock_flocks() macros as suggested by Serge).
	[Matt Helsley]: Reorg code a bit to simplify error handling.
	[Matt Helsley]: Reorg code to initialize marker-lock (Pass a
		NULL lock to checkpoint_one_lock() to indicate marker).

I prefer the approach of writing-all-at-once over the current
one-at-a-time-and-mark-the-end. See my previous comment:
(https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2010-July/025057.html)

   Having looked at the code again - how about the following:
   get rid of this "last entry" altogether; instead, during
   checkpoint, first count the locks, then write a header with
   the number of locks, following by that many records of the
   locks themselves.

   This is what we do for other resource lists/chains as well.
   Also makes it a bit easier to parse since you always know
   what to expect once you see the header.
---

(Yes, I'm aware that if the list is long you may need to send
multiple chunks and for that "remember" where you were in the
list...)

[PATCH 09/16][cr][v3]: Restore file-locks

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Restore POSIX file-locks of an application from its checkpoint image.

Read the saved file-locks from the checkpoint image and for each POSIX
lock, call flock_set() to set the lock on the file.

As pointed out by Matt Helsley, no special handling is necessary for a
process P2 in the checkpointed container that is blocked on a lock, L1
held by another process P1. Processes in the restarted container begin
execution only after all processes have restored. If the blocked process
P2 is restored first, it will prepare to return an -ERESTARTSYS from the
fcntl() system call, but wait for P1 to be restored. When P1 is restored,
it will re-acquire the lock L1 before P1 and P2 begin actual execution.
This ensures that even if P2 is scheduled to run before P1, P2 will go
back to waiting for the lock L1.

Changelog[v3]:
	- [Oren Laadan]: Use a macro that can be shared with user-space
	  to set/test marker file-lock.

Changelog[v2]:
	- Add support for C/R of F_SETLK64/F_GETLK64

[PATCH 11/16][cr][v3]: Add ->fl_type_prev field.

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

In preparation for checkpoint/restart of file leases, add ->fl_type_prev
field to 'struct file_lock'. This field is needed to correctly restore
file leases in case of recursive checkpoint/restart of an in-progress
lease.

This ->fl_type_prev is only initialized in this patch. It will actually
be used when restoring file leases after a checkpoint.

[PATCH 12/16][cr][v3]: Add ->fl_break_notified field.

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

The file_lock->fl_break_notified field will be used when checkpointing and
restarting a file-lease. It is needed if the application was checkpointed
during the lease-break-protocol, to "remember" if the application was notified
of the lease-break.

This patch just initializes the ->fl_break_notified field. It will be used
in a follow-on patch, when checkpoint/restart of file-leases are implemented.

[PATCH 02/16][cr][v3]: Add uid, euid params to __f_setown()

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Instead of letting __f_setown() use the UID and EUID of the calling process,
pass them in as parameters.

This modified interface will be useful when checkpointing and restarting an
application that has a 'file owner' specified for an open file.  When
checkpointing the application, the UID and EUID of the process setting up
the owner are saved in the checkpoint image.

When the application is restarted, we use the UID and EUID values saved in
the checkpoint-image, rather than that of the calling process.

Changelog[v2]:
	- [Matthew Wilcox] Rather than a new __f_setown_uid() interface add
	  the uid parameters to __f_setown() itself.

[PATCH 03/16][cr][v3]: Checkpoint file-owner information

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Checkpoint the file->f_owner information for an open file. This
information will be used to restore the file-owner information
when the application is restarted from the checkpoint.

The file->f_owner information is "private" to each 'struct file' i.e.
fown_struct is not an external object shared with other file structures.
So the information can directly be added to the 'ckpt_hdr_file' object.

[PATCH 04/16][cr][v3]: Restore file_owner info

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Restore the file-owner information for each 'struct file'.  This is
essentially is like a new fcntl(F_SETOWN) and fcntl(F_SETSIG) calls,
except that the pid, uid, euid and signum values are read from the
checkpoint image.

Changelog[v3]:
	- [Oren Laadan]: Ensure find_vpid() found a valid pid before
	  making it the file owner.
Changelog[v2]:
	- [Matt Helsley, Serge Hallyn]: Don't trust uids in checkpoint image.
	  (added CAP_KILL check)
	- Check that signal number read from the checkpoint image is valid.
	  (not sure it is required, since its an incomplete check for tampering)

[PATCH 06/16][cr][v3]: Checkpoint file-locks

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

While checkpointing each file-descriptor, find all the locks on the
file and save information about the lock in the checkpoint-image.
A follow-on patch will use this informaiton to restore the file-locks.

Changelog[v3]:
	[Oren Laadan] Add a missing (loff_t) type cast and use a macro
		to set the marker/dummy file lock

Changelog[v2]:
	[Matt Helsley]: Use fixed sizes (__s64) instead of 'loff_t' in
		'struct ckpt_hdr_file_lock'.
	[Matt Helsley, Serge Hallyn]: Highlight new use of BKL (using
		lock_flocks() macros as suggested by Serge).
	[Matt Helsley]: Reorg code a bit to simplify error handling.
	[Matt Helsley]: Reorg code to initialize marker-lock (Pass a
		NULL lock to checkpoint_one_lock() to indicate marker).

[PATCH 08/16][cr][v3]: Define flock64_set()

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Extract core functionality of fcntl_setlk64() into a separate function,
flock64_set(). flock64_set() can be also used when restarting a checkpointed
application and restoring its file-locks.

[PATCH 09/16][cr][v3]: Restore file-locks

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Restore POSIX file-locks of an application from its checkpoint image.

Read the saved file-locks from the checkpoint image and for each POSIX
lock, call flock_set() to set the lock on the file.

As pointed out by Matt Helsley, no special handling is necessary for a
process P2 in the checkpointed container that is blocked on a lock, L1
held by another process P1. Processes in the restarted container begin
execution only after all processes have restored. If the blocked process
P2 is restored first, it will prepare to return an -ERESTARTSYS from the
fcntl() system call, but wait for P1 to be restored. When P1 is restored,
it will re-acquire the lock L1 before P1 and P2 begin actual execution.
This ensures that even if P2 is scheduled to run before P1, P2 will go
back to waiting for the lock L1.

Changelog[v3]:
	- [Oren Laadan]: Use a macro that can be shared with user-space
	  to set/test marker file-lock.

Changelog[v2]:
	- Add support for C/R of F_SETLK64/F_GETLK64

[PATCH 11/16][cr][v3]: Add ->fl_type_prev field.

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

In preparation for checkpoint/restart of file leases, add ->fl_type_prev
field to 'struct file_lock'. This field is needed to correctly restore
file leases in case of recursive checkpoint/restart of an in-progress
lease.

This ->fl_type_prev is only initialized in this patch. It will actually
be used when restoring file leases after a checkpoint.

[PATCH 12/16][cr][v3]: Add ->fl_break_notified field.

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

The file_lock->fl_break_notified field will be used when checkpointing and
restarting a file-lease. It is needed if the application was checkpointed
during the lease-break-protocol, to "remember" if the application was notified
of the lease-break.

This patch just initializes the ->fl_break_notified field. It will be used
in a follow-on patch, when checkpoint/restart of file-leases are implemented.

[PATCH 13/16][cr][v3]: Add jiffies_begin field to ckpt_ctx

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

'jiffies_begin' is needed to compute relative time-offsets after restart.
We cannot use ->ktime_begin for these computations since, as pointed out
by John Stultz, converting jiffies to CLOCK_MONOTONIC can result in
incorrect values.

[PATCH 14/16][cr][v3]: Checkpoint file-leases

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Build upon the C/R of file-locks to checkpoint file-leases. This patch
simply checkpoints the file-lease information. A follow-on patch
will use this checkpoint information to restorethe file leases.

C/R of file leases depends on whether the lease is currently being broken
(i.e F_INPROGRESS is set) or not.  If the file-lease is not being broken,
checkpoint of file-lease is identical to checkpoint of file-locks.

But if the lease is being broken, we checkpoint additional information,
such as:
        - the previous lease type,
        - the time remaining in the lease, and
        - whether we already notified the lease-holder about the lease-break

See follow-on patch ("Restore file-leases") for more details on how this
information is used while restoring file leases and for other semantics
relating to file-leases.

Changelog[v3]:
	- [Oren Laadan, John Stultz]: Use ->jiffies_begin to compute
	  remaining lease
        - Broke-up the draft-patch from previous version into smaller
          patches and addressed comments from Oren Laadan.

[PATCH 15/16][cr][v3]: Define do_setlease()

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Move the core functionality of fcntl_setlease() into a new function,
do_setlease(). do_setlease() is, same as fcntl_setlease(), except for
two new parameters, 'notified' and 'break_time'.

do_setlease() is used, in a follow-on patch when restoring file leases.
These new parameters are needed if the lease was being broken when the
process was checkpointed.

The parameter 'notified' is used to notify the lease-holder exactly once,
even if the lease was checkpointed during a lease-break and then restarted.

The parameter, 'break_time' specifies the new break-time for the lease.
(i.e if the process had 10-seconds remaining on the lease when it was
checkpointed, the 'break_time' is used give the process 10 seconds on
the lease after the process is restarted).

[PATCH 16/16][cr][v3]: Restore file-leases

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Restart an application with file-leases, from its checkpoint.

Restart of file-lease that is not being broken (i.e F_INPROGRESS is not set)
is almost identical to C/R of file-locks. i.e save the type of lease for the
file in the checkpoint image and when restarting, restore the lease by calling
do_setlease().

C/R of file-lease gets complicated (I think), if a process is checkpointed
when its lease was being revoked. i.e if P1 has a F_WRLCK lease on file F1
and P2 opens F1 for write, P2's open is blocked for lease_break_time (45 secs).
P1's lease is revoked (i.e set to F_UNLCK) and P1 is notified via a SIGIO to
flush any dirty data.

Basic design:

To restore a lease that is being broken, we temporarily re-assign the original
lease type (that we saved in ->fl_type_prev) to the lease-holder. i.e. in the
above example, give P1 a F_WRLCK lease). When the lease-breaker (P2) is
restarted after checkpoint, its open() system fails with -ERESTARTSYS and it
will retry the open(). This open() will re-initiate the lease-break protocol
(i.e P2 will go back to waiting and P1 will be notified).

Some observations about this approach:

1. We must use ->fl_type_prev because, when the lease is being broken,
  ->fl_type is already set to F_UNLCK and would not result in a
  lease-break protocol when P2 is restarted.

2. When the lease-break is initiated and we signal the lease-holder, we set
   the ->fl_break_notified field. When restarting the lease and repeating
   the lease-break protocol, we check the ->fl_break_notified field and
   signal the lease-holder only if did not signal before the checkpoint.

3. If P1 was was checkpointed 40 seconds into the lease_break_time,(i.e.
   it had 5 seconds remaining in the lease), we would ideally want to ensure
   that after restart, P1 gets 5 or at least 5 seconds to finish cleaning up
   the lease.

   But the actual time that P1 gets after the application is restarted
   depends on many factors (number of processes in the application
   process tree, load on system at the time of restart etc).

   Jamie Lokier had suggested that we favor the lease-holder (P1) during
   restart, even if it meant giving the lease-holder the entire lease-break
   interval (45 seconds) again after the restart. Oren Laadan suggested
   that rather than make that a kernel policy, we let the user choose a
   policy based on the application's behavior.

   The current patchset computes and checkpoints the remaining-lease and
   uses this value to restore the lease. i.e the kernel simply uses the
   "remaining-lease" value stored in the checkpoint image. Userspace tools
   can be developed to alter the remaining-lease value in the checkpoint
   image to either favor the lease-holder or the lease-breaker or to add
   a fixed delta.

4. The above design of C/R of file-leases assumes that both lease-holder
   and lease-breaker are restarted. If only the lease-holder is
   restarted, the kernel will re-assign the original lease (F_WRLCK in
   the example) to lease-holder. If no lease-breaker comes along, the
   kernel will leave the lease assigned to lease-holder.

   This should not be a problem because, as far as the lease-holder is
   concerned the lease was revoked and it will/should reacquire the
   lease.

Changelog[v3]:

	- Broke-up patchset into smaller patches and addressed comments
	  from Oren Laadan, Jamie Lokier.

Changelog[v2]:
	- comments from Matt Helsley, Serge Hallyn...

Can you explain roughly how this is intended to work, or point me at a
document explaining it?

I'm trying to figure out how the file lock checkpoint will work with
cluster filesystems, or if there needs to be a mechanism to turn this
feature off for those filesystems. What prevents the lock state changing
in an incompatible way between the checkpoint and the restore?

'jiffies_begin' is needed to compute relative time-offsets after restart.
We cannot use ->ktime_begin for these computations since, as pointed out
by John Stultz, converting jiffies to CLOCK_MONOTONIC can result in
incorrect values.

[PATCH 14/16][cr][v3]: Checkpoint file-leases

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Build upon the C/R of file-locks to checkpoint file-leases. This patch
simply checkpoints the file-lease information. A follow-on patch
will use this checkpoint information to restorethe file leases.

C/R of file leases depends on whether the lease is currently being broken
(i.e F_INPROGRESS is set) or not.  If the file-lease is not being broken,
checkpoint of file-lease is identical to checkpoint of file-locks.

But if the lease is being broken, we checkpoint additional information,
such as:
        - the previous lease type,
        - the time remaining in the lease, and
        - whether we already notified the lease-holder about the lease-break

See follow-on patch ("Restore file-leases") for more details on how this
information is used while restoring file leases and for other semantics
relating to file-leases.

	- [Oren Laadan, John Stultz]: Use ->jiffies_begin to compute
	  remaining lease

[PATCH 15/16][cr][v3]: Define do_setlease()

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Move the core functionality of fcntl_setlease() into a new function,
do_setlease(). do_setlease() is, same as fcntl_setlease(), except for
two new parameters, 'notified' and 'break_time'.

do_setlease() is used, in a follow-on patch when restoring file leases.
These new parameters are needed if the lease was being broken when the
process was checkpointed.

The parameter 'notified' is used to notify the lease-holder exactly once,
even if the lease was checkpointed during a lease-break and then restarted.

The parameter, 'break_time' specifies the new break-time for the lease.
(i.e if the process had 10-seconds remaining on the lease when it was
checkpointed, the 'break_time' is used give the process 10 seconds on
the lease after the process is restarted).

[PATCH 16/16][cr][v3]: Restore file-leases

[Sukadev Bhattiprolu]

Restart an application with file-leases, from its checkpoint.

Restart of file-lease that is not being broken (i.e F_INPROGRESS is not set)
is almost identical to C/R of file-locks. i.e save the type of lease for the
file in the checkpoint image and when restarting, restore the lease by calling
do_setlease().

C/R of file-lease gets complicated (I think), if a process is checkpointed
when its lease was being revoked. i.e if P1 has a F_WRLCK lease on file F1
and P2 opens F1 for write, P2's open is blocked for lease_break_time (45 secs).
P1's lease is revoked (i.e set to F_UNLCK) and P1 is notified via a SIGIO to
flush any dirty data.

Basic design:

To restore a lease that is being broken, we temporarily re-assign the original
lease type (that we saved in ->fl_type_prev) to the lease-holder. i.e. in the
above example, give P1 a F_WRLCK lease). When the lease-breaker (P2) is
restarted after checkpoint, its open() system fails with -ERESTARTSYS and it
will retry the open(). This open() will re-initiate the lease-break protocol
(i.e P2 will go back to waiting and P1 will be notified).

Some observations about this approach:

1. We must use ->fl_type_prev because, when the lease is being broken,
  ->fl_type is already set to F_UNLCK and would not result in a
  lease-break protocol when P2 is restarted.

2. When the lease-break is initiated and we signal the lease-holder, we set
   the ->fl_break_notified field. When restarting the lease and repeating
   the lease-break protocol, we check the ->fl_break_notified field and
   signal the lease-holder only if did not signal before the checkpoint.

3. If P1 was was checkpointed 40 seconds into the lease_break_time,(i.e.
   it had 5 seconds remaining in the lease), we would ideally want to ensure
   that after restart, P1 gets 5 or at least 5 seconds to finish cleaning up
   the lease.

   But the actual time that P1 gets after the application is restarted
   depends on many factors (number of processes in the application
   process tree, load on system at the time of restart etc).

   Jamie Lokier had suggested that we favor the lease-holder (P1) during
   restart, even if it meant giving the lease-holder the entire lease-break
   interval (45 seconds) again after the restart. Oren Laadan suggested
   that rather than make that a kernel policy, we let the user choose a
   policy based on the application's behavior.

   The current patchset computes and checkpoints the remaining-lease and
   uses this value to restore the lease. i.e the kernel simply uses the
   "remaining-lease" value stored in the checkpoint image. Userspace tools
   can be developed to alter the remaining-lease value in the checkpoint
   image to either favor the lease-holder or the lease-breaker or to add
   a fixed delta.

4. The above design of C/R of file-leases assumes that both lease-holder
   and lease-breaker are restarted. If only the lease-holder is
   restarted, the kernel will re-assign the original lease (F_WRLCK in
   the example) to lease-holder. If no lease-breaker comes along, the
   kernel will leave the lease assigned to lease-holder.

   This should not be a problem because, as far as the lease-holder is
   concerned the lease was revoked and it will/should reacquire the
   lease.

Changelog[v3]:

	- Broke-up patchset into smaller patches and addressed comments
	  from Oren Laadan, Jamie Lokier.

Changelog[v2]:
	- comments from Matt Helsley, Serge Hallyn...

Can you explain roughly how this is intended to work, or point me at a
document explaining it?

I'm trying to figure out how the file lock checkpoint will work with
cluster filesystems, or if there needs to be a mechanism to turn this
feature off for those filesystems. What prevents the lock state changing
in an incompatible way between the checkpoint and the restore?

Steve.

Hi Steve,

[ I'm just going to address your cluster filesystem question and let
  Suka answer your questions on these patches. ]

	Open files whose file operations structs are missing the
.checkpoint operation cause checkpoint to fail. We haven't added a
.checkpoint operation to cluster filesystems because of the kinds of
issues you're referring to.

	I don't think there are any file locks/leases which do not
require opening the file(s) in question. That means file locks
and leases in cluster filesystems should also cause checkpoint
to fail.

	Each cluster filesystem probably needs some special care when
considering the use of the generic_file_checkpoint operation. 

	Using generic_file_checkpoint is appropriate when we have some
way to get a consistent image of the filesystem at the time checkpoint
takes place. How that happens is largely up to the userspace tools
called user-cr. Device-mapper snapshots, fsfreezer + rsync, and
filesystem snapshots will all work. Of course those tools usually don't
save more volatile state information like locks.

	It's quite possible cluster filesystems will need their own
.checkpoint file operations. generic_file_checkpoint is composed of a few
smaller functions which could make writing such ops easier. For example,
we've already reused the smaller functions in .checkpoint operations for
anon_inode-based interfaces, pipes, fifos, and more,

	What it may come down to is this: How do you backup a cluster
filesystem? If there's already a backup method that works then we can
write the .checkpoint operation to rely on it. Often that means we
can use generic_file_checkpoint. The "backup method" should be
something which can be invoked by the userspace checkpoint/restart tools
(user-cr). If the backup method is too slow we can work on
improving it or we can try something else.

	So perhaps the best thing we can do to help you is learn how
folks backup their cluster filesystems. Got any pointers to basic info
on that?

Cheers,

Hi Steve,

In addition to Matt's reply -

Checkpoint/restart _assumes_ that there exists a mechanism to keep
the filesystem state _unchanged_ between checkpoint and restart.

For example, one can kill the application after checkpoint and keep
the filesystem from being touched.
A more likely scenario is to use a filesystem's snapshot/backup
solution during checkpoint to ensure a pristine copy for restart.
In particular, there needs to be a mechanism to accomplish this
in a cluster filesystem, or rely on dedicated userspace tools.

So at restart, the filesystem is assumed to be visible and in the
same state as before. That state also includes locks etc.

Also, c/r has a mechanism to detect cases where a file in use by
the checkpoint application(s) is shared with a task that is not
being checkpointed. In this case, checkpoint will fail, to prevent
inconsistencies.

(I also imagine that often a cluster filesystem is used by parallel
applications - which in turn require some support to be checkpointed
in a consisted manner).

Well, there is no document atm and I tried to explain how it is supposed
