fix(controller): sched_worker_change() use-after-free on worker disconnect (bug-1578)
sched_worker_change() aliased w->host.resvals_to_sched to a local xlist_t's
backing array, pushed it to the scheduler, then freed that array via
xlist_fini() without resetting the alias - leaving a dangling pointer for
the rest of the worker's life. On disconnect (handle_worker_leave ->
mark_worker_unavail -> persist_worker_hook_fun -> capnp_encode_worker ->
encode_Worker -> encode_NameValue_list), this dereferenced freed memory and
crashed the controller - but only once a scheduler had ever connected
(on_scheduler_join gates the hook registration), which made it easy to miss
in isolated worker-only testing.

The correct reset already existed in the function but was dead-code'd
behind #if 0 /*FIXME*/ - apparently from a prior fix attempt that got
wrapped instead of landed. Fix mirrors the proven-correct pattern already
used by the sibling apiserver_worker_change(): null the alias before
xlist_fini() frees the backing array, rather than double-freeing via
free_name_val_list() first.

Adds test_sched_worker_change.c, a regression test driving the real
production hook-dispatch path (xce_run_hooks -> sched_worker_hook_fun ->
sched_worker_dead -> sched_worker_change) and the real encode_Worker()
encoder the original crash traversed - confirmed to reproduce the exact
ASAN heap-use-after-free when the fix is reverted, and pass clean when
restored, closing the gap that let this regress silently once already.

Found while live-testing the resource-value-verification feature (deploying
a scheduler + injecting worker resource values via xce_test, then
disconnecting) - unrelated to that feature's own changes.

1. commit 规则

  • 每个人 fork 自己的 branch, 从自己的 branch 做 PR,review 完再 commit

2. code format

2.1. C

推荐使用 clang-format,公共配置放在源码里面 xce/.clang-format

(理论上直接使用源码里面 xce/.clang-format 文件格式不会变)

2.1.1. vscode 可以在配置中加上如下内容

"C_Cpp.clang_format_style": "WebKit",
"C_Cpp.clang_format_fallbackStyle": "WebKit",

2.1.2. vim & emacs

clang-format -style="{BasedOnStyle: webkit}" -i XX.c

2.2. golang

使用默认 gofmt

3. build environment and build (example of ubuntu)

3.1 build environment

  • Install nix package management tool
sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon
  • Edit /etc/nix/nix.conf to make sure
experimental-features = nix-command flakes
sandbox = true
sandbox-fallback = false
substituters = https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/nix-channels/store https://cache.nixos.org https://cache.nixos.org/
trusted-users = root <your account>

make sure that you have restarted nix-daemon service after you have changed /etc/nix/nix.conf

  • Install socat and config ssh (for clone by ssh protocol)
nix profile add nixpkgs#socat

.ssh/config

Host gitea.shenrs.eu
	HostName gitea.shenrs.eu
	IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
	ProxyCommand socat - openssl-connect:gitea.shenrs.eu:2022,snihost=gitea.shenrs.eu,verify=0

3.2 checkout source code

3.3 build (for package and release)

cd xce/src

# for build debug version
nix build --option sandbox false .#xcecore_debug

# for normal build
nix build --option sandbox false .#xcecore

You can find the generated binaries at =result= directory

3.4 build (for daily develop)

cd xce/src
nix develop

# using meson to generated build configuration (debug and address sanitize)

meson setup build --buildtype=debug -Db_sanitize=address

# run meson to build
meson compile -C  build

# The generated files will be in build/

3.5 build AppImage package

cd xce/src
nix bundle --bundler github:ralismark/nix-appimage --option sandbox false .#xce

This will create all in one AppImage file which contains everything for package delivery.

4. misc

4.1. Windows remap ctrl and alt key

create a reg file, e.g. remapkey.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,05,00,00,00,38,00,1d,00,1d,00,38,00,38,e0,1d,e0,1d,e0,38,e0,00,00,00,00

then double click remapkey.reg to import it. Restart OS.
