Coredump notes depend on being able to invoke dump routines twice; once in a dry-run mode to get the size of the note, and another to actually emit the note to the corefile.
When a note helper emits a different length section the second time around than the length it requested the first time, the kernel produces a corrupt coredump.
NT_PROCSTAT_FILES output length, when packing kinfo structs, is tied to the length of filenames corresponding to vnodes in the process' fd table via vn_fullpath. As vnodes may move around during dump, this is racy.
So:
- Detect badly behaved notes in putnote() and pad underfilled notes.
- Add a fail point, debug.fail_point.fill_kinfo_vnode__random_path to exercise the NT_PROCSTAT_FILES corruption. It simply picks random lengths to expand or truncate paths to in fo_fill_kinfo_vnode().
- Add a sysctl, kern.coredump_pack_fileinfo, to allow users to disable kinfo packing for PROCSTAT_FILES notes. This should avoid both FILES note corruption and truncation, even if filenames change, at the cost of about 1 kiB in padding bloat per open fd. Document the new sysctl in core.5.
- Fix note_procstat_files to self-limit in the 2nd pass. Since sometimes this will result in a short write, pad up to our advertised size. This addresses note corruption, at the risk of sometimes truncating the last several fd info entries.
- Fix NT_PROCSTAT_FILES consumers libutil and libprocstat to grok the zero padding.
