.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm procctl
|
|
.Nd control processes
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/procctl.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn procctl "idtype_t idtype" "id_t id" "int cmd" "void *arg"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn procctl
|
|
system call provides for control over processes.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa idtype
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa id
|
|
arguments specify the set of processes to control.
|
|
If multiple processes match the identifier,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will make a
|
|
.Dq best effort
|
|
to control as many of the selected processes as possible.
|
|
An error is only returned if no selected processes successfully complete
|
|
the request.
|
|
The following identifier types are supported:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv P_PGID"
|
|
.It Dv P_PID
|
|
Control the process with the process ID
|
|
.Fa id .
|
|
.It Dv P_PGID
|
|
Control processes belonging to the process group with the ID
|
|
.Fa id .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The control request to perform is specified by the
|
|
.Fa cmd
|
|
argument.
|
|
The following commands are supported:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_STATUS"
|
|
.It Dv PROC_SPROTECT
|
|
Set process protection state.
|
|
This is used to mark a process as protected from being killed if the system
|
|
exhausts the available memory and swap.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa arg
|
|
parameter must point to an integer containing an operation and zero or more
|
|
optional flags.
|
|
The following operations are supported:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv PPROT_CLEAR"
|
|
.It Dv PPROT_SET
|
|
Mark the selected processes as protected.
|
|
.It Dv PPROT_CLEAR
|
|
Clear the protected state of selected processes.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following optional flags are supported:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv PPROT_DESCEND"
|
|
.It Dv PPROT_DESCEND
|
|
Apply the requested operation to all child processes of each selected process
|
|
in addition to each selected process.
|
|
.It Dv PPROT_INHERIT
|
|
When used with
|
|
.Dv PPROT_SET ,
|
|
mark all future child processes of each selected process as protected.
|
|
Future child processes will also mark all of their future child processes.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Dv PROC_REAP_ACQUIRE
|
|
Acquires the reaper status for the current process.
|
|
Reaper status means that children orphaned by the reaper's descendants
|
|
that were forked after the acquisition of reaper status are reparented to the
|
|
reaper process.
|
|
After system initialization,
|
|
.Xr init 8
|
|
is the default reaper.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_REAP_RELEASE
|
|
Release the reaper state for the current process.
|
|
The reaper of the current process becomes the new reaper of the
|
|
current process's descendants.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_REAP_STATUS
|
|
Provides information about the reaper of the specified process,
|
|
or the process itself when it is a reaper.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
argument must point to a
|
|
.Vt procctl_reaper_status
|
|
structure which is filled in by the syscall on successful return.
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
struct procctl_reaper_status {
|
|
u_int rs_flags;
|
|
u_int rs_children;
|
|
u_int rs_descendants;
|
|
pid_t rs_reaper;
|
|
pid_t rs_pid;
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rs_flags
|
|
may have the following flags returned:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv REAPER_STATUS_REALINIT"
|
|
.It Dv REAPER_STATUS_OWNED
|
|
The specified process has acquired reaper status and has not
|
|
released it.
|
|
When the flag is returned, the specified process
|
|
.Fa id ,
|
|
pid, identifies the reaper, otherwise the
|
|
.Fa rs_reaper
|
|
field of the structure is set to the pid of the reaper
|
|
for the specified process id.
|
|
.It Dv REAPER_STATUS_REALINIT
|
|
The specified process is the root of the reaper tree, i.e.,
|
|
.Xr init 8 .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rs_children
|
|
field returns the number of children of the reaper among the descendants.
|
|
It is possible to have a child whose reaper is not the specified process,
|
|
since the reaper for any existing children is not reset on the
|
|
.Dv PROC_REAP_ACQUIRE
|
|
operation.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rs_descendants
|
|
field returns the total number of descendants of the reaper(s),
|
|
not counting descendants of the reaper in the subtree.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rs_reaper
|
|
field returns the reaper pid.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rs_pid
|
|
returns the pid of one reaper child if there are any descendants.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_REAP_GETPIDS
|
|
Queries the list of descendants of the reaper of the specified process.
|
|
The request takes a pointer to a
|
|
.Vt procctl_reaper_pids
|
|
structure in the
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
parameter.
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
struct procctl_reaper_pids {
|
|
u_int rp_count;
|
|
struct procctl_reaper_pidinfo *rp_pids;
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
When called, the
|
|
.Fa rp_pids
|
|
field must point to an array of
|
|
.Vt procctl_reaper_pidinfo
|
|
structures, to be filled in on return,
|
|
and the
|
|
.Fa rp_count
|
|
field must specify the size of the array,
|
|
into which no more than
|
|
.Fa rp_count
|
|
elements will be filled in by the kernel.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Vt "struct procctl_reaper_pidinfo"
|
|
structure provides some information about one of the reaper's descendants.
|
|
Note that for a descendant that is not a child, it may be incorrectly
|
|
identified because of a race in which the original child process exited
|
|
and the exited process's pid was reused for an unrelated process.
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
struct procctl_reaper_pidinfo {
|
|
pid_t pi_pid;
|
|
pid_t pi_subtree;
|
|
u_int pi_flags;
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa pi_pid
|
|
field is the process id of the descendant.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa pi_subtree
|
|
field provides the pid of the child of the reaper, which is the (grand-)parent
|
|
of the process.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa pi_flags
|
|
field returns the following flags, further describing the descendant:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv REAPER_PIDINFO_VALID"
|
|
.It Dv REAPER_PIDINFO_VALID
|
|
Set to indicate that the
|
|
.Vt procctl_reaper_pidinfo
|
|
structure was filled in by the kernel.
|
|
Zero-filling the
|
|
.Fa rp_pids
|
|
array and testing the
|
|
.Dv REAPER_PIDINFO_VALID
|
|
flag allows the caller to detect the end
|
|
of the returned array.
|
|
.It Dv REAPER_PIDINFO_CHILD
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa pi_pid
|
|
field identifies the direct child of the reaper.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Dv PROC_REAP_KILL
|
|
Request to deliver a signal to some subset of the descendants of the reaper.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
parameter must point to a
|
|
.Vt procctl_reaper_kill
|
|
structure, which is used both for parameters and status return.
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
struct procctl_reaper_kill {
|
|
int rk_sig;
|
|
u_int rk_flags;
|
|
pid_t rk_subtree;
|
|
u_int rk_killed;
|
|
pid_t rk_fpid;
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rk_sig
|
|
field specifies the signal to be delivered.
|
|
Zero is not a valid signal number, unlike for
|
|
.Xr kill 2 .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rk_flags
|
|
field further directs the operation.
|
|
It is or-ed from the following flags:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv REAPER_KILL_CHILDREN"
|
|
.It Dv REAPER_KILL_CHILDREN
|
|
Deliver the specified signal only to direct children of the reaper.
|
|
.It Dv REAPER_KILL_SUBTREE
|
|
Deliver the specified signal only to descendants that were forked by
|
|
the direct child with pid specified in the
|
|
.Fa rk_subtree
|
|
field.
|
|
.El
|
|
If neither the
|
|
.Dv REAPER_KILL_CHILDREN
|
|
nor the
|
|
.Dv REAPER_KILL_SUBTREE
|
|
flags are specified, all current descendants of the reaper are signalled.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a signal was delivered to any process, the return value from the request
|
|
is zero.
|
|
In this case, the
|
|
.Fa rk_killed
|
|
field identifies the number of processes signalled.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa rk_fpid
|
|
field is set to the pid of the first process for which signal
|
|
delivery failed, e.g., due to permission problems.
|
|
If no such process exists, the
|
|
.Fa rk_fpid
|
|
field is set to -1.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRACE_CTL
|
|
Enable or disable tracing of the specified process(es), according to the
|
|
value of the integer argument.
|
|
Tracing includes attachment to the process using the
|
|
.Xr ptrace 2
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ktrace 2 ,
|
|
debugging sysctls,
|
|
.Xr hwpmc 4 ,
|
|
.Xr dtrace 1 ,
|
|
and core dumping.
|
|
Possible values for the
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
argument are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv PROC_TRACE_CTL_DISABLE_EXEC"
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRACE_CTL_ENABLE
|
|
Enable tracing, after it was disabled by
|
|
.Dv PROC_TRACE_CTL_DISABLE .
|
|
Only allowed for self.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRACE_CTL_DISABLE
|
|
Disable tracing for the specified process.
|
|
Tracing is re-enabled when the process changes the executing
|
|
program with the
|
|
.Xr execve 2
|
|
syscall.
|
|
A child inherits the trace settings from the parent on
|
|
.Xr fork 2 .
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRACE_CTL_DISABLE_EXEC
|
|
Same as
|
|
.Dv PROC_TRACE_CTL_DISABLE ,
|
|
but the setting persists for the process even after
|
|
.Xr execve 2 .
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRACE_STATUS
|
|
Returns the current tracing status for the specified process in
|
|
the integer variable pointed to by
|
|
.Fa data .
|
|
If tracing is disabled,
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
is set to -1.
|
|
If tracing is enabled, but no debugger is attached by the
|
|
.Xr ptrace 2
|
|
syscall,
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
is set to 0.
|
|
If a debugger is attached,
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
is set to the pid of the debugger process.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_CTL
|
|
Controls the capability mode sandbox actions for the specified
|
|
sandboxed processes,
|
|
on a return from any syscall which gives either a
|
|
.Er ENOTCAPABLE
|
|
or
|
|
.Er ECAPMODE
|
|
error.
|
|
If the control is enabled, such errors from the syscalls cause
|
|
delivery of the synchronous
|
|
.Dv SIGTRAP
|
|
signal to the thread immediately before returning from the syscalls.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Possible values for the
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
argument are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_CTL_DISABLE"
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_CTL_ENABLE
|
|
Enable the
|
|
.Dv SIGTRAP
|
|
signal delivery on capability mode access violations.
|
|
The enabled mode is inherited by the children of the process,
|
|
and is kept after
|
|
.Xr fexecve 2
|
|
calls.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_CTL_DISABLE
|
|
Disable the signal delivery on capability mode access violations.
|
|
Note that the global sysctl
|
|
.Dv kern.trap_enocap
|
|
might still cause the signal to be delivered.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr capsicum 4 .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On signal delivery, the
|
|
.Va si_errno
|
|
member of the
|
|
.Fa siginfo
|
|
signal handler parameter is set to the syscall error value,
|
|
and the
|
|
.Va si_code
|
|
member is set to
|
|
.Dv TRAP_CAP .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr capsicum 4
|
|
for more information about the capability mode.
|
|
.It Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_STATUS
|
|
Return the current status of signalling capability mode access
|
|
violations for the specified process.
|
|
The integer value pointed to by the
|
|
.Fa data
|
|
argument is set to the
|
|
.Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_CTL_ENABLE
|
|
value if the process control enables signal delivery, and to
|
|
.Dv PROC_TRAPCAP_CTL_DISABLE
|
|
otherwise.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
See the note about sysctl
|
|
.Dv kern.trap_enocap
|
|
above, which gives independent global control of signal delivery.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh NOTES
|
|
Disabling tracing on a process should not be considered a security
|
|
feature, as it is bypassable both by the kernel and privileged processes,
|
|
and via other system mechanisms.
|
|
As such, it should not be utilized to reliably protect cryptographic
|
|
keying material or other confidential data.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If an error occurs, a value of -1 is returned and
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|

.Fn procctl
|
|
function appeared in
|
|
.Fx 10.0 .
|
|
The reaper facility is based on a similar feature of Linux and
|
|
DragonflyBSD, and first appeared in
|
|
.Fx 10.2 .
