深入理解Linux之进程初探

一. 关于fork调用

  fork()调用创建一个新的进程,该进程几乎是当前进程的一个完全拷贝。由fork()创建的新进程被称为子进程。fork函数被调用一次但返回两次。两次返回的唯一区别是子进程中返回0值,而父进程中返回子进程ID。子进程是父进程的副本,它将获得父进程数据空间、堆、栈等资源的副本。注意,子进程持有的是上述存储空间的“副本”,这意味着父子进程间不共享这些存储空间。Linux将复制父进程的地址空间内容给子进程,因此,子进程拥有独立的地址空间。

  我们来看一个DEMO:

// fork_example.c
#include <memory.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
    pid_t pid;
    
    char stack_data[] = "stack_data";

    char *heap_data = malloc(10 * sizeof(char));    
    strcpy(heap_data, "heap_data");
    
    pid = fork();
    if (pid == 0) {
        printf("CHILD PROCESS: %s, %s\n", stack_data, heap_data);
    } else if (pid > 0) {
        printf("PARENT PROCESS: %s, %s\n", stack_data, heap_data);
    } else {
        printf("FORK FAILED.");
    }

    return 0;
}

  运行的输出结果为:

CHILD PROCESS: stack_data, heap_data
PARENT PROCESS: stack_data, heap_data

  可以看出,父进程和子进程的栈和堆的数据是相同的。这些数据在创建子进程时是通过拷贝产生的。

二. 关于execl调用

  系统调用exec是以新的进程去代替原来的进程,但进程的PID保持不变。因此,可以这样认为,exec系统调用并没有创建新的进程,只是替换了原来进程上下文的内容。原进程的代码段,数据段,堆栈段被新的进程所代替。

  我们来看一个例子:

// execl_example.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
    execl("./hello_world", NULL, NULL);
    
    /* We can only reach this code when there is an error in execl */    
    printf("The execl must be failed!\n");

    return 1;
}

  我们执行一个不存在的hello_world程序,看看输出结果:

The execl must be failed!

  现在我们创建一个hello_world程序,该程序简单的打印一个Hello World.

// hello_world.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
    printf("Hello World!\n");
}

  现在我们继续运行execl_example程序,这时输出为:

Hello World!

  通过比较两次输出,我们发现:当execl成功时,原有的进程执行就会被打断,替换为新的进程继续执行。

三. 使用汇编进行系统调用

  我们知道在Linux中,每个系统调用都对应一个系统调用号。这个系统调用号是在unistd.h中定义的。在我的机器上文件的位置是在:

/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-11-generic/arch/x86/include/asm/unistd_32.h

  如果找不到,可以尝试使用以下命令查找:

locate unistd.h | xargs grep -ri "__NR_fork"

  下面是unistd.h的部分内容:

... ...
#define __NR_restart_syscall      0
#define __NR_exit          1
#define __NR_fork          2
#define __NR_read          3
#define __NR_write          4
#define __NR_open          5
#define __NR_close          6
#define __NR_waitpid          7
#define __NR_creat          8
#define __NR_link          9
#define __NR_unlink         10
#define __NR_execve         11
... ...

  使用汇编调用fork:

  可以看到fork的系统调用号是2,我们现在使用汇编代码重新编写fork_example.c

#include <memory.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int  main()
{
    pid_t pid;
    
    char stack_data[] = "stack_data";

    char *heap_data = malloc(10 * sizeof(char));    
    strcpy(heap_data, "heap_data");

    // pid = fork();
    asm volatile(
        "mov $0x2, %%eax\n\t" // 将fork的系统调用号2存到eax寄存器  
        "int $0x80\n\t"       // 产生int 0x80中断
        "mov %%eax,%0\n\t"    // 将结果存入pid中
        : "=m" (pid) 
    );
    
    if (pid == 0) {
        printf("CHILD PROCESS: %s, %s\n", stack_data, heap_data);
    } else if (pid > 0) {
        printf("PARENT PROCESS: %s, %s\n", stack_data, heap_data);
    } else {
        printf("FORK FAILED.\n");
    }

    return 0;
}

  运行输出结果是:

CHILD PROCESS: stack_data, heap_data
PARENT PROCESS: stack_data, heap_data

  可以尝试将调用号替换一下,改成$0x3,得到的结果是:

FORK FAILED.

  使用汇编调用execl:

  我们再尝试一下使用汇编调用execl。通过上面的观察我们可以看到execl的系统调用号是11.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
    // execl("./hello_world", NULL, NULL);
    const char *program = "./hello_world";
    asm volatile (
        "mov %0,%%ebx\n\t"   // 使用program做为参数1
        "mov $0,%%ecx\n\t"   // 参数2为NULL
        "mov $0,%%edx\n\t"   // 参数3为NULL
        "mov $0xb,%%eax\n\t" // 将execl的系统调用好11存入eax中
        "int $0x80\n\t"      // 产生0x80中断
        : "=m" (program)
    );
    
    /* We can only reach this code when there is an error in execl */    
    printf("The execl must be failed!\n");

    return 1;
}

  运行结果为:

Hello World!

  如果将系统调用号改为0x3,输出结果为:

The execl must be failed!

 

四.系统调用过程详解

  通过第三步的过程,我们了解到,系统调用在内核中的执行是依靠中断实现的。如果我们想进一步定位fork和execl的代码,我们需要先了解系统调用的详细过程。即回答以下两个问题:

  1.中断是怎么工作的?

  2.int 0x80中断是怎么工作的?

  中断是怎么工作的

  在Linux操作系统中,中断是通过中断描述符表工作的。中断描述符表(Interrupt Descriptor Table, IDT)是一个系统表,它与每一个中断或者异常向量相联系,每一个向量在表中有相应的中断或者异常处理程序的入口地址。内核在允许中断发生前,必须适当的初始化IDT。对于每个中断,都会有对应的中断处理程序。当产生一个中断时,Linux根据中断向量表中对应的项找到存储中断处理程序的地址,然后调用相应的中断处理程序。中段描述符表在内存中的地址存储在idtr寄存器中。内核在启动中断前,必须初始化IDT,然后将IDT的地址壮载到idtr中。

  内核初始化的时候调用trap_init()函数和init_IRQ()函数初始化中断向量表。

  int 0x80中断是怎么工作的

  通过上面的分析,我们知道每个中断都有对应的处理程序。在系统调用的过程中,会有一个系统调用分派表,每个表项存储了一个系统调用。系统调用中断处理程序,根据系统调用号找到对应的系统调用执行。对于系统调用,参数的传递是通过寄存器ebx ecx edx进行传递的。eax中存储的是系统调用号。系统调用最大为__NR_syscalls个。

  

  在arch/x86/include/asm/irq_vectors.h中定义了

# define SYSCALL_VECTOR            0x80

  现在我们查找trap_init函数,在arch/x86/kernel/traps.c中

set_system_trap_gate(SYSCALL_VECTOR, &system_call);

  现在,查找system_call函数,在arch/x86/kernel/entry_32.s中:

ENTRY(system_call)
    RING0_INT_FRAME            # can't unwind into user space anyway
    ASM_CLAC
    pushl_cfi %eax            # save orig_eax
    SAVE_ALL
    GET_THREAD_INFO(%ebp)
                    # system call tracing in operation / emulation
    testl $_TIF_WORK_SYSCALL_ENTRY,TI_flags(%ebp)
    jnz syscall_trace_entry
    cmpl $(NR_syscalls), %eax
    jae syscall_badsys
syscall_call:
    call *sys_call_table(,%eax,4)
    movl %eax,PT_EAX(%esp)        # store the return value
syscall_exit:
    LOCKDEP_SYS_EXIT
    DISABLE_INTERRUPTS(CLBR_ANY)    # make sure we don't miss an interrupt
                    # setting need_resched or sigpending
                    # between sampling and the iret
    TRACE_IRQS_OFF
    movl TI_flags(%ebp), %ecx
    testl $_TIF_ALLWORK_MASK, %ecx    # current->work
    jne syscall_exit_work

  在include/uapi/asm_generic/unistd.h中找到:

__SYSCALL(__NR_fork, sys_fork)

  fork的系统调用号是2,对应的系统调用分派表中为sys_fork函数。在kernel/fork.c中找到如下代码:

#ifdef __ARCH_WANT_SYS_FORK
SYSCALL_DEFINE0(fork)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_MMU
    return do_fork(SIGCHLD, 0, 0, NULL, NULL);
#else
    /* can not support in nommu mode */
    return(-EINVAL);
#endif
}
#endif

四.do_fork源码分析

  现在查找do_fork函数,也在kernel/fork.c中:

/*
 *  Ok, 这就是fork例程的主要部分。
 *
 * 函数执行进程的复制,如果成功则启动新进程。并且等待新进程完成VM的使用。
 */
long do_fork(unsigned long clone_flags,
          unsigned long stack_start,
          unsigned long stack_size,
          int __user *parent_tidptr,
          int __user *child_tidptr)
{
    struct task_struct *p;
    int trace = 0;
    long nr;

    /*
     * 在分配之前做一些参数和权限检查。
     */
    if (clone_flags & (CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID)) {
        if (clone_flags & (CLONE_THREAD|CLONE_PARENT))
            return -EINVAL;
    }

    /*
     * 确定是否需要报告给ptracer,或者哪些需要汇报给ptracer。如果是调用者内核线程
     * 或者标志了CLONE_UNTRACED,则不报告任何跟踪信息。否则,报告相应fork的跟踪信息。
     */
    if (!(clone_flags & CLONE_UNTRACED)) {
        if (clone_flags & CLONE_VFORK)
            trace = PTRACE_EVENT_VFORK;
        else if ((clone_flags & CSIGNAL) != SIGCHLD)
            trace = PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE;
        else
            trace = PTRACE_EVENT_FORK;

        if (likely(!ptrace_event_enabled(current, trace)))
            trace = 0;
    }
  
    // copy_process函数创建进程描述符和子进程需要的其他数据结构。
    p = copy_process(clone_flags, stack_start, stack_size,
             child_tidptr, NULL, trace);
             
    /* 现在唤醒新线程。*/
    if (!IS_ERR(p)) {
        struct completion vfork;

        trace_sched_process_fork(current, p);

        nr = task_pid_vnr(p);

        if (clone_flags & CLONE_PARENT_SETTID)
            put_user(nr, parent_tidptr);

        if (clone_flags & CLONE_VFORK) {
            p->vfork_done = &vfork;
            init_completion(&vfork);
            get_task_struct(p);
        }

        wake_up_new_task(p);

        /* fork已经完成,子进程也已经启动。现在通知ptracer。 */
        if (unlikely(trace))
            ptrace_event(trace, nr);

        if (clone_flags & CLONE_VFORK) {
            if (!wait_for_vfork_done(p, &vfork))
                ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_VFORK_DONE, nr);
        }
    } else {
        nr = PTR_ERR(p);
    }
    return nr;
}

  可以看到do_fork调用了copy_process完成了绝大部分的工作。copy_process位于同一个文件当中:

/*
 * 以复制的方式创建一个新的进程。但不启动运行新创建的进程。
 *
 * 主要复制寄存器和其它进程环境中的相应的合适部分。真正的
 * 启动工作则交由调用者完成。
 */
static struct task_struct *copy_process(unsigned long clone_flags,
                    unsigned long stack_start,
                    unsigned long stack_size,
                    int __user *child_tidptr,
                    struct pid *pid,
                    int trace)
{
    int retval;
    struct task_struct *p; // 保存新的进程描述符。
    
    /* 删除了对标志位的一致性和合法性的检查 */
    
    // security_task_create和security_task_alloc()执行所有附加的安全检查。
    retval = security_task_create(clone_flags);
    // dup_task_struct为子进程获取进程描述符。稍后分析。
    p = dup_task_struct(current);
    // task结构中ftrace_ret_stack结构变量的初始化,即函数返回用的栈。
    ftrace_graph_init_task(p);
    get_seccomp_filter(p);
    // task中互斥变量的初始化。
    rt_mutex_init_task(p);
    // 第1个if对进程占用的资源数做出限制,task_rlimit(p, RLIMIT_NPROC)
    // 限制了改进程用户可以拥有的进程总数。 
    if (atomic_read(&p->real_cred->user->processes) >= task_rlimit(p, RLIMIT_NPROC)) {
        // 第2个if使用了capable()函数来对权限做出检查,检查是否有权对指定
        // 的资源进行操作,该函数返回0则代表无权操作。
        if (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) && !capable(CAP_SYS_RESOURCE) && p->real_cred->user != INIT_USER)
            goto bad_fork_free;
    }
    
    current->flags &= ~PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED; // 将当前进程标志位中的PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED置0。
    copy_creds(p, clone_flags); // copy_creds()复制证书,应该是复制权限及身份信息。

    // 检查创建的线程是否超过了系统进程总量。

    clear_in_exec = retval;

    prepare_binprm(bprm); 
    
    /* 把文件路径名拷贝、命令行参数及环境串拷贝到一个或多个新分配的页框中 */

    acct_update_integrals(current);
    free_bprm(bprm);
    if (displaced)
