PATCH 1/5 Track in-kernel when we expect checkpoint/restart to work
From: Dave Hansen <[email protected]>
Subject: [PATCH 1/5] Track in-kernel when we expect checkpoint/restart to work
Suggested by Ingo.
Checkpoint/restart is going to be a long effort to get things working. We're going to have a lot of things that we know just don't work for a long time. That doesn't mean that it will be useless, it just means that there's some complicated features that we are going to have to work incrementally to fix.
This patch introduces a new mechanism to help the checkpoint/restart developers. A new function pair: task/process_deny_checkpoint() is created. When called, these tell the kernel that we *know* that the process has performed some activity that will keep it from being properly checkpointed.
The 'flag' is an atomic_t for now so that we can have some level of atomicity and make sure to only warn once.
For now, this is a one-way trip. Once a process is no longer 'may_checkpoint' capable, neither it nor its children ever will be. This can, of course, be fixed up in the future. We might want to reset the flag when a new pid namespace is created, for instance.

Re: [PATCH 1/5] Track in-kernel when we expect checkpoint/restart to work
Quoting Sukadev Bhattiprolu ([email protected]):
Hi Suka,
the reason this patch was dropped is that we've moved from task to slightly more per-resource checkpointability tracking.
So right now there is no t->may_checkpoint, but there is t->files->may_checkpoint and t->mm->may_checkpoint.

PATCH 2/5 Checkpoint multiple processes
In reply to a message not in the archiveFrom: Oren Laadan <[email protected]>
Subject: [PATCH 2/5] Checkpoint multiple processes
Checkpointing of multiple processes works by recording the tasks tree structure below a given task (usually this task is the container init).
For a given task, do a DFS scan of the tasks tree and collect them into an array (keeping a reference to each task). Using DFS simplifies the recreation of tasks either in user space or kernel space. For each task collected, test if it can be checkpointed, and save its pid, tgid, and ppid.
The actual work is divided into two passes: a first scan counts the tasks, then memory is allocated and a second scan fills the array.
The logic is suitable for creation of processes during restart either in userspace or by the kernel.
Currently we ignore threads and zombies, as well as session ids.

PATCH 3/5 Restart multiple processes
In reply to a message not in the archiveFrom: Oren Laadan <[email protected]>
Subject: [PATCH 3/5] Restart multiple processes
Restarting of multiple processes expects all restarting tasks to call sys_restart(). Once inside the system call, each task will restart itself at the same order that they were saved. The internals of the syscall will take care of in-kernel synchronization bewteen tasks.
This patch does _not_ create the task tree in the kernel. Instead it assumes that all tasks are created in some way and then invoke the restart syscall. You can use the userspace mktree.c program to do that.
The init task (*) has a special role: it allocates the restart context (ctx), and coordinates the operation. In particular, it first waits until all participating tasks enter the kernel, and provides them the common restart context. Once everyone in ready, it begins to restart itself.
In contrast, the other tasks enter the kernel, locate the init task (*) and grab its restart context, and then wait for their turn to restore.
When a task (init or not) completes its restart, it hands the control over to the next in line, by waking that task.
An array of pids (the one saved during the checkpoint) is used to synchronize the operation. The first task in the array is the init task (*). The restart context (ctx) maintain a "current position" in the array, which indicates which task is currently active. Once the currently active task completes its own restart, it increments that position and wakes up the next task.
Restart assumes that userspace provides meaningful data, otherwise it's garbage-in-garbage-out. In this case, the syscall may block indefinitely, but in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, so the user can ctrl-c or otherwise kill the stray restarting tasks.
In terms of security, restart runs as the user the invokes it, so it will not allow a user to do more than is otherwise permitted by the usual system semantics and policy.
Currently we ignore threads and zombies, as well as session ids. Add support for multiple processes
(*) For containers, restart should be called inside a fresh container by the init task of that container. However, it is also possible to restart applications not necessarily inside a container, and without restoring the original pids of the processes (that is, provided that the application can tolerate such behavior). This is useful to allow multi-process restart of tasks not isolated inside a container, and also for debugging.

PATCH 4/5 Check 'may_checkpoint()' early
In reply to a message not in the archiveFrom: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <[email protected]>
Subject: [PATCH 4/5] Check 'may_checkpoint()' early
We currently check if a task is checkpointable when writing the task information to checkpoint file. The small downside of doing this check late is that we may have processed several processes in the tree before hitting one that cannot be checkpointed.
We anyway walk the process tree we are checkpointing earlier, while counting the tasks. We could check if all processes in the tree are checkpointable at that time and fail early if any of them are not. Since the process tree should be frozen, checking earlier should not matter ?
For now, the patch leaves the existing check in cr_write_pids(). We can remove that later.

I remain not-a-fan of self-checkpoint, and think it needlessly complicates locking, but it isn't for this patch to change that :)

lol ... here's is an interesting use case for self checkpoint: "ASSURE:

Right, but we can always do self-checkpoint by sending a signal to an external daemon which freezes us and then does the checkpoint, no?
Ok I haven't read the paper, so if the answer is "no that won't work, dumbass" then i'll go and read it :)
