[PATCH 2/2] fs/lock: show locks taken by processes from another pidns

From: Konstantin Khorenko
Date: Fri Jun 08 2018 - 10:27:50 EST


Currently if we face a lock taken by a process invisible in the current
pidns we skip the lock completely, but this

1) makes the output not that nice
(root@vz7)/: cat /proc/${PID_A2}/fdinfo/3
pos: 4
flags: 02100002
mnt_id: 257
lock: (root@vz7)/:

2) makes it more difficult to debug issues with leaked flocks
if you get error on lock, but don't see any locks in /proc/$id/fdinfo/$file

Let's show information about such locks again as previously, but
show zero in the owner pid field.

After the patch:
===============
(root@vz7)/:cat /proc/${PID_A2}/fdinfo/3
pos: 4
flags: 02100002
mnt_id: 295
lock: 1: FLOCK ADVISORY WRITE 0 b6:f8a61:529946 0 EOF

Fixes: 9d5b86ac13c5 ("fs/locks: Remove fl_nspid and use fs-specific l_pid for remote locks")
