Oren,

Could you take a look over Cedric's external checkpoint patch?

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/daveh/linux-2.6-cr.git;a=commit;h=28ffabbc17d3641eee2a7eb66f714c266c400263

It seems pretty small to me.

This is not needed (only needed in self checkpoint).

missing put_task_struct() ?

I committed a couple of patches on top of ckpt-v7 that do this.
(the first one is actually a simple cleanup that is unrelated).

see:
http://git.ncl.cs.columbia.edu/?p=linux-cr-dev.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ckpt-v7
(or git://git.ncl.cs.columbia.edu/pub/git/linux-cr-dev.git ckpt-v7)

*  "Minor simplification of cr_ctx_alloc(), cr_ctx_free()"
*  "External checkpoint of a task other than ourself"

To checkpoint another task, you need to freeze that other task, or to
SIGSTOP it (if using a kernel without freezer cgroup).

Restart remains the same except the the original PID is not preserved
(because we haven't solved yet the fork-with-specific-pid issue).

In reality, you would create a new names space, and have the task running
in there call 'sys_restart()'.

Below are test1.c, ckpt.c (to checkpoint), and rstr.c (to restart), as
well as the two patches.

I tested it this way:
	$ ./test.1 &
	[1] 3493

	$ kill -STOP 3493
	$ ./ckpt 3493 > ckpt.image
	
	$ mv /tmp/cr-test.out /tmp/cr-test.out.orig
	$ cp /tmp/cr-test.out.orig /tmp/cr-test.out

	$ kill -CONT 3493

	$ ./rstr < ckpt.image
now compare the output of the two output files

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] External checkpoint of a task other than ourself

sys_checkpoint() now looks up the target pid (in our namespace) and
checkpoints that corresponding task. That task should be the root of
a container.

sys_restart() remains the same, as the restart is always done in the
context of the restarting task.

with the err goto, you're calling cr_ctx_free() in a few places where
ctx is partially initialized. you should at least do :

	INIT_LIST_HEAD(&ctx->pgarr_list);

right after the kzalloc() and probably check the value of ctx->hbuf. 
There might be other issues.

Oren, 

I've merged your v7 patches on top of the 2.6.27-lxc3 patchset : 

	http://lxc.sourceforge.net/patches/2.6.27/2.6.27-lxc3/

the -lxc patchset includes the just merged freezer and sysfs patches
required for the netns. 

the lxc user tools using the patchset are here (CVS head for the 
moment) : 

	 http://sourceforge.net/projects/lxc/

simple applications calculating decimals of PI (source attached) are 
successfully checkpointed and restarted with the lxc-checkpoint and 
lxc-restart tools. something like the following :

	$ lxc-create -n foo 
	$ lxc-start -n foo ./pi1 40000 &
	$ lxc-checkpoint -n foo > /tmp/statefile
	$ lxc-restart -n foo < /tmp/statefile

stdin should be closed of course and all output redirected to a regular 
file.

This is work in progress of course but it's a major milestone !

Thanks,

C.
