[Devel] [RFC v12][PATCH 09/14] Dump open file descriptors

Oren Laadan orenl at cs.columbia.edu
Mon Dec 29 01:16:22 PST 2008


Dump the files_struct of a task with 'struct cr_hdr_files', followed by
all open file descriptors. Because the 'struct file' corresponding to an
FD can be shared, each they are assigned an objref and registered in the
object hash. A reference to the 'file *' is kept for as long as it lives
in the hash (the hash is only cleaned up at the end of the checkpoint).

For each open FD there is a 'struct cr_hdr_fd_ent' with the FD, its
close-on-exec property, and the objref of the corresponding 'file *'.
If the FD is to be saved (first time) then this is followed by a
'struct cr_hdr_fd_data' with the FD state. Then will come the next FD
and so on.

Recall that it is assumed that all tasks possibly sharing the file table
are frozen. If this assumption breaks, then the behavior is *undefined*:
checkpoint may fail, or restart from the resulting image file will fail.

This patch only handles basic FDs - regular files, directories.

Changelog[v12]:
  - Replace obsolete cr_debug() with pr_debug()

Changelog[v11]:
  - Discard handling of opened symlinks (there is no such thing)
  - cr_scan_fds() retries from scratch if hits size limits

Changelog[v9]:
  - Fix a couple of leaks in cr_write_files()
  - Drop useless kfree from cr_scan_fds()

Changelog[v8]:
  - initialize 'coe' to workaround gcc false warning

Changelog[v6]:
  - Balance all calls to cr_hbuf_get() with matching cr_hbuf_put()
    (even though it's not really needed)
