* [musl] waitpid (wait4) on Linux 5 returns invalid values

Hello!
I'm having an issue with musl (at git master.) It appears as the
waitpid[1] implementation assumes that the syscall returns values
matching the waitpid specification, but it does not! This causes some
programs to hang.

Runit's "runsv" program is one example. It does something like this:

for (;;) {
  child = waitpid(-1, &wstat, WNOHANG);
  if (!child) break;
  if ((child == -1) && (errno != EINTR)) break;
  if (child == svd[0].pid) {
    // do things with child
  }
}

When I inspect a hung runsv process with strace I find it calling
wait4 at full speed, stuck in this loop. wait4 comes from calling the
waitpid function which in musl performs the wait4 syscall and returns
the value.

The waitpid spec[2] says its return value is either the PID, -1 with
errno set to EINTR or 0 in WNOHANG mode. So, the expected returns
values are: >0, 0, -1.

However the wait4 syscall[3] in Linux 5 returns other values,
specifically it returns errors as negative values. The error that
trips up programs like runit's runsv is ECHILD (-10) which wait4
returns when there are no children (i.e. they have exited.)

I propose that you change the waitpid implementation to handle this.
Something like this:

pid_t waitpid(pid_t pid, int *status, int options)
{
  pid_t r = syscall_cp(SYS_wait4, pid, status, options, 0);
  if (r < 0) {
    errno = -r;
    r = -1;
  }
  return r;
}

Hmm... that is very weird. That should not happen. Because the
syscall_cp macro already contains a call to __syscall_ret(), which does
exactly what you propose. So that means, there is something else going
on in your copy of the code. Did you change anything about the source
code? Or can you disassemble the function to see what it does?

Ciao,
Markus

Strange! You are right of course; looking at src/internal/syscall.h I
indeed see that syscall_cp calls __syscall_ret(__syscall_cp(args))
The musl I'm building with comes from https://musl.cc/#binaries which
is created from these scripts according to the author:
https://git.zv.io/xstatic/mcm It doesn't seem to apply any patches.
Anyhow, I'm currently building musl & gcc myself using
musl-cross-make. I will see how that pans out and report back.
Thank you for your quick response Markus!

In the meantime, in case you're curious, here's a program that
reproduces the issue. I've attached a statically-compiled version too
that can be disassembled. Running it:
$ gcc -static a.c && ./a.out
waitpid returned -10, wstat=0

#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
        int wstat = 0;
        pid_t child = waitpid(-1, &wstat, WNOHANG);
        printf("waitpid returned %d, wstat=%d\n", child, wstat);
        return 0;
}

waitpid works as expected after building musl 1.2.1 and GCC 9.2.0 from source.
It must be so that the binary distributions at
https://musl.cc/#binaries are broken somehow.
$ /build/gcc-x86_64-linux-musl/bin/x86_64-linux-musl-gcc -static a.c && ./a.out
waitpid returned -1, wstat=0, errno=10 "No child process"

Markus thank you for pointing me in the right direction :-)

This disassembly shows a miscompiled (or compiled with wrong patches)
waitpid. It should be a tail call to __syscall_ret, not a retq.

The program compiles correctly with
https://more.musl.cc/9/x86_64-linux-musl/x86_64-linux-musl-native.tgz
(The GCC 9 version) Perhaps an issue with GCC 10?

Rasmus, thank you for reporting this issue.


Using your reproducer I'm able to observe the following:

(1) GCC 10 as-published on musl.cc : BUG
waitpid returned -10, wstat=0, errno=0 (No error information)

(2) GCC 10 without this patch [1]  : OK
waitpid returned -1, wstat=0, errno=10 (No child process)

which matches your GCC 9 (20200828) observation.


This patch was applied to musl.cc as part of a series to add
experimental riscv32 support in September 2020, but was applied
universally and not strictly riscv32 targets.

The patch in question was /not/ applied to the GCC 9 binaries as
they were last updated in August of 2020, nor to earlier 10 ones.

I am updating the build infrastructure to avoid contamination of
"supported" targets by experimental patches such as this one.

New (fixed and newer GCC) toolchains will be published as soon as
they finish building (~24 hours). I will ping you off-list.

Additional tests (not simply spot-checks) will be implemented for
future releases.


Sorry for the inconvenience.

Zach I'm glad I was able to help! No trouble at all.
Thank you all for your work on musl & accompanying tools :-)
