Several error paths in amdgpu_plugin_drm_dump_file() leak resources. The drmPrimeHandleToFD() and open_img_file() failures use break instead of goto exit, which skips per-iteration cleanup and lets the function continue dumping metadata with a stale ret value. Replace break with proper resource cleanup and goto exit. The vm_info_entries buffer is not freed when the ioctl or allocate_vm_entries() calls fail after allocating it, and the buffer from posix_memalign() is never freed after sdma_copy_bo(), leaking memory on every loop iteration. Add the missing xfree() calls. Check the amdgpu_device_initialize() return value because h_dev is undefined on failure. Move list_handles_entries cleanup into the exit block because error paths that goto exit skip the existing xfree() call after the loop. Add a NULL check before free_e(rd) because rd allocation can fail before the struct is initialized. Signed-off-by: Radostin Stoyanov <rstoyanov@fedoraproject.org> |

CRIU -- A project to implement checkpoint/restore functionality for Linux
CRIU (stands for Checkpoint and Restore in Userspace) is a utility to checkpoint/restore Linux tasks.
Using this tool, you can freeze a running application (or part of it) and checkpoint it to a hard drive as a collection of files. You can then use the files to restore and run the application from the point it was frozen at. The distinctive feature of the CRIU project is that it is mainly implemented in user space. There are some more projects doing C/R for Linux, and so far CRIU appears to be the most feature-rich and up-to-date with the kernel.
CRIU project is (almost) the never-ending story, because we have to always keep up with the Linux kernel supporting checkpoint and restore for all the features it provides. Thus we're looking for contributors of all kinds -- feedback, bug reports, testing, coding, writing, etc. Please refer to CONTRIBUTING.md if you would like to get involved.
The project started as the way to do live migration for OpenVZ Linux containers, but later grew to more sophisticated and flexible tool. It is currently used by (integrated into) OpenVZ, LXC/LXD, Docker, and other software, project gets tremendous help from the community, and its packages are included into many Linux distributions.
The project home is at http://criu.org. This wiki contains all the knowledge base for CRIU we have. Pages worth starting with are:
- Installation instructions
- A simple example of usage
- Examples of more advanced usage
- Troubleshooting can be hard, some help can be found here, here and here
Checkpoint and restore of simple loop process
Advanced features
As main usage for CRIU is live migration, there's a library for it called P.Haul. Also the project exposes two cool core features as standalone libraries. These are libcompel for parasite code injection and libsoccr for TCP connections checkpoint-restore.
Live migration
True live migration using CRIU is possible, but doing all the steps by hands might be complicated. The phaul sub-project provides a Go library that encapsulates most of the complexity. This library and the Go bindings for CRIU are stored in the go-criu repository.
Parasite code injection
In order to get state of the running process CRIU needs to make this process execute some code, that would fetch the required information. To make this happen without killing the application itself, CRIU uses the parasite code injection technique, which is also available as a standalone library called libcompel.
TCP sockets checkpoint-restore
One of the CRIU features is the ability to save and restore state of a TCP socket without breaking the connection. This functionality is considered to be useful by itself, and we have it available as the libsoccr library.
