fix(scheduler): invalidate stale builtin_fcfs picker cursors across calls (bug-1686)
User-reported live crash: xce_scheduler SIGSEGV in fcfs_cursor_enter_queue
(builtin_fcfs.c), called from builtin_fcfs_next_job <- sched_job_picker
(picker thread).

priv->cursor/priv->job_cursor (fcfs_plugin_data_t) are raw ordq_item_t*
pointers that persist across SEPARATE next_job() calls, each with its own
independent priv->lock acquisition/release. The existing mutual-exclusion
fix (task 2.4) correctly protects the cursor walk from corruption DURING
one locked call, but does nothing to stop a LATER call from dereferencing
a node a properly-locked, INTERVENING call already freed.
on_queue_update()'s re-sort (remove old ordq_item_t node, insert a fresh
one via ordq_put) is exactly such a free -- with only one queue in the
deployment, the picker's cursor is essentially always parked on it
between calls (sched_queue_is_ready/sched_job_is_ready are unconditional
true stubs today, so the cursor never advances away while jobs remain),
making a queue config update land in that window trivially reachable.

Fixed by invalidating (NULLing) whichever cursor points at a node right
before that node is freed, at all three sites that can free a node the
cursors might reference: on_queue_update's reuse-and-resort path
(priv->cursor + priv->job_cursor in lockstep), builtin_fcfs_on_job_state_change's
!JOB_IS_PEND removal, and fcfs_remove_job_everywhere's cross-queue removal
loop (both job_cursor only, via an ordq_peek-then-invalidate-then-delete
pattern). Always safe: next_job() treats a NULL cursor as "no more
candidates this round", and begin_session() resets both cursors fresh
every round regardless -- worst case is a bounded one-round delay, never
a crash or a permanently lost job.

New test_builtin_fcfs_cursor_uaf.c reproduces the bug fully single-threaded
(next_job() releases the lock between calls, so no real concurrency is
needed to hit the window). RED-phase independently confirmed a real ASAN
heap-use-after-free with the exact same call chain as the live crash
(freed by on_queue_update, read by next_job()); GREEN confirms 0 failures
and no job permanently lost across the invalidation.

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.
