We nowadays expose pidfdid at various places, e.g. envvars and dbus properties. Also the sd_notify() MAINPID= message has been complemented with MAINPIDFDID=. But acquiring pidfdid is actually non-trivial especially considering the 32-bit case, hence let's introduce a public helper in sd-daemon specifically for that purpose.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_pidfd_get_inode_id()</function> may be invoked to acquire the 64-bit inode ID of
|
|
a PID file descriptor (PIDFD), which can be used to reliably identify a process for the current boot.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>As a typical example, the service manager sets <varname>$MAINPIDFDID</varname> and <varname>$MANAGERPIDFDID</varname>
|
|
environment variables to the inode IDs of the service main process and the service manager itself, respectively,
|
|
if such functionality is supported by the kernel.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>On 64-bit architectures, the inode ID can be directly obtained via a call to
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>fstat</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
on a given pidfd. However, on 32-bit architectures <structname>struct stat</structname>'s .st_ino
|
|
field is also 32-bit, which similar to PIDs is subject to reuse. Therefore, a second mechanism leveraging
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>name_to_handle_at</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
has been added to kernel in v6.14. This helper is added to simplify downstream handling of pidfd/pidfs internals.
