[v4,1/3] fs: Support setting a minimum fd for "lowest available fd" allocation

Commit Message

Josh Triplett April 14, 2020, 2:15 a.m. UTC

Some applications want to prevent the usual "lowest available fd"
allocation from allocating certain file descriptors. For instance, they
may want to prevent allocation of a closed fd 0, 1, or 2 other than via
dup2/dup3, or reserve some low file descriptors for other purposes.

Add a prctl to increase the minimum fd and return the previous minimum.

System calls that allocate a specific file descriptor, such as
dup2/dup3, ignore this minimum.

exec resets the minimum fd, to prevent one program from interfering with
another program's expectations about fd allocation.

Test program:

    #include <err.h>
    #include <fcntl.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <sys/prctl.h>

    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
        if (prctl(PR_INCREASE_MIN_FD, 100, 0, 0, 0) < 0)
            err(1, "prctl");
        int fd = open("/dev/null", O_RDONLY);
        if (fd < 0)
            err(1, "open");
        printf("%d\n", fd); // prints 100
        return 0;
    }
