de54b9ac25 ipc: modify message queue accounting to not take kernel data structures into account
A while back, the message queue implementation in the kernel was
improved to use btrees to speed up retrieval of messages, in commit
d6629859b3 ("ipc/mqueue: improve performance of send/recv").

That patch introducing the improved kernel handling of message queues
(using btrees) has, as a by-product, changed the meaning of the QSIZE
field in the pseudo-file created for the queue.  Before, this field
reflected the size of the user-data in the queue.  Since, it also takes
kernel data structures into account.  For example, if 13 bytes of user
data are in the queue, on my machine the file reports a size of 61
bytes.

There was some discussion on this topic before (for example
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/1/115).  Commenting on a th lkml, Michael
Kerrisk gave the following background
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/16/74):

    The pseudofiles in the mqueue filesystem (usually mounted at
    /dev/mqueue) expose fields with metadata describing a message
    queue. One of these fields, QSIZE, as originally implemented,
    showed the total number of bytes of user data in all messages in
    the message queue, and this feature was documented from the
    beginning in the mq_overview(7) page. In 3.5, some other (useful)
    work happened to break the user-space API in a couple of places,
    including the value exposed via QSIZE, which now includes a measure
    of kernel overhead bytes for the queue, a figure that renders QSIZE
    useless for its original purpose, since there's no way to deduce
    the number of overhead bytes consumed by the implementation.
    (The other user-space breakage was subsequently fixed.)

This patch removes the accounting of kernel data structures in the
queue.  Reporting the size of these data-structures in the QSIZE field
was a breaking change (see Michael's comment above).  Without the QSIZE
field reporting the total size of user-data in the queue, there is no
way to deduce this number.

It should be noted that the resource limit RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE is counted
against the worst-case size of the queue (in both the old and the new
implementation).  Therefore, the kernel overhead accounting in QSIZE is
not necessary to help the user understand the limitations RLIMIT imposes
on the processes.

6157dbbfbf ipc,sysv: return -EINVAL upon incorrect id/seqnum
In ipc_obtain_object_check we return -EIDRM when a bogus sequence number
is detected via ipc_checkid, while the ipc manpages state the following
return codes for such errors:

   EIDRM  <ID> points to a removed identifier.
   EINVAL Invalid <ID> value, or unaligned, etc.

EIDRM should only be returned upon a RMID call (->deleted check), and thus
return EINVAL for wrong seq.  This difference in semantics has also caused
real bugs, ie: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=246509

f8b5918495 ipc,sysv: make return -EIDRM when racing with RMID consistent
The ipc_lock helper is used by all forms of sysv ipc to acquire the ipc
object's spinlock.  Upon error (bogus identifier), we always return
-EINVAL, whether the problem be in the idr path or because we raced with a
task performing RMID.  For the later, however, all ipc related manpages,
state the that for:

       EIDRM  <ID> points to a removed identifier.

And return:

       EINVAL Invalid <ID> value, or unaligned, etc.

Which (EINVAL) should only return once the ipc resource is deleted.  For
all types of ipc this is done immediately upon a RMID command.  However,
shared memory behaves slightly different as it can merely mark a segment
for deletion, and delay the actual freeing until there are no more active
consumers.  Per shmctl(IPC_RMID) manpage:

""
Mark  the  segment to be destroyed.  The segment will only actually
be destroyed after the last process detaches it (i.e., when the
shm_nattch member of the associated structure shmid_ds is zero).
""

Unlike ipc_lock, paths that behave "correctly", at least per the manpage,
involve controlling the ipc resource via *ctl(), doing the exact same
validity check as ipc_lock after right acquiring the spinlock:

	if (!ipc_valid_object()) {
		err = -EIDRM;
		goto out_unlock;
	}

Thus make ipc_lock consistent with the rest of ipc code and return -EIDRM
in ipc_lock when !ipc_valid_object().

ff35e5ef86 ipc,msg: provide barrier pairings for lockless receive
We currently use a full barrier on the sender side to to avoid receiver
tasks disappearing on us while still performing on the sender side wakeup.
 We lack however, the proper CPU-CPU interactions pairing on the receiver
side which busy-waits for the message.  Similarly, we do not need a full
smp_mb, and can relax the semantics for the writer and reader sides of the
message.  This is safe as we are only ordering loads and stores to r_msg.
And in both smp_wmb and smp_rmb, there are no stores after the calls
_anyway_.

This obviously applies for pipelined_send and expunge_all, for EIRDM when
destroying a queue.

fa6004ad45 ipc/mqueue: Implement lockless pipelined wakeups
This patch moves the wakeup_process() invocation so it is not done under
the info->lock by making use of a lockless wake_q. With this change, the
waiter is woken up once it is STATE_READY and it does not need to loop
on SMP if it is still in STATE_PENDING. In the timeout case we still need
to grab the info->lock to verify the state.

This change should also avoid the introduction of preempt_disable() in -rt
which avoids a busy-loop which pools for the STATE_PENDING -> STATE_READY
change if the waiter has a higher priority compared to the waker.

Additionally, this patch micro-optimizes wq_sleep by using the cheaper
cousin of set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTABLE) as we will block no
matter what, thus get rid of the implied barrier.

d3c97900b4 ipc/shm.c: fix overly aggressive shmdt() when calls span multiple segments
This is a highly-contrived scenario.  But, a single shmdt() call can be
induced in to unmapping memory from mulitple shm segments.  Example code
is here:

	http://www.sr71.net/~dave/intel/shmfun.c

The fix is pretty simple: Record the 'struct file' for the first VMA we
encounter and then stick to it.  Decline to unmap anything not from the
same file and thus the same segment.

I found this by inspection and the odds of anyone hitting this in practice
are pretty darn small.

Lightly tested, but it's a pretty small patch.

0050ee059f ipc/msg: increase MSGMNI, remove scaling
SysV can be abused to allocate locked kernel memory.  For most systems, a
small limit doesn't make sense, see the discussion with regards to SHMMAX.

Therefore: increase MSGMNI to the maximum supported.

And: If we ignore the risk of locking too much memory, then an automatic
scaling of MSGMNI doesn't make sense.  Therefore the logic can be removed.

The code preserves auto_msgmni to avoid breaking any user space applications
that expect that the value exists.

Notes:
1) If an administrator must limit the memory allocations, then he can set
MSGMNI as necessary.

Or he can disable sysv entirely (as e.g. done by Android).

2) MSGMAX and MSGMNB are intentionally not increased, as these values are used
to control latency vs. throughput:
If MSGMNB is large, then msgsnd() just returns and more messages can be queued
before a task switch to a task that calls msgrcv() is forced.

2e094abfd1 ipc/sem.c: change memory barrier in sem_lock() to smp_rmb()
When I fixed bugs in the sem_lock() logic, I was more conservative than
necessary.  Therefore it is safe to replace the smp_mb() with smp_rmb().
And: With smp_rmb(), semop() syscalls are up to 10% faster.

The race we must protect against is:

	sem->lock is free
	sma->complex_count = 0
	sma->sem_perm.lock held by thread B

thread A:

A: spin_lock(&sem->lock)

			B: sma->complex_count++; (now 1)
			B: spin_unlock(&sma->sem_perm.lock);

A: spin_is_locked(&sma->sem_perm.lock);
A: XXXXX memory barrier
A: if (sma->complex_count == 0)

Thread A must read the increased complex_count value, i.e. the read must
not be reordered with the read of sem_perm.lock done by spin_is_locked().

Since it's about ordering of reads, smp_rmb() is sufficient.

start as locked, so that the caller can complete the initialization

doesn't work.

Thus: Move the ipc_addid() to the end of the initialization.

do_shmat() is the only user of ->start_stack (proc just reports its
value), and this check looks ugly and wrong.

The reason for this check is not clear at all, and it wrongly assumes that
the stack can only grow down.

But the main problem is that in general mm->start_stack has nothing to do
with stack_vma->vm_start.  Not only the application can switch to another
stack and even unmap this area, setup_arg_pages() expands the stack
without updating mm->start_stack during exec().  This means that in the
likely case "addr > start_stack - size - PAGE_SIZE * 5" is simply
impossible after find_vma_intersection() == F, or the stack can't grow
anyway because of RLIMIT_STACK.

Many thanks to Hugh for his explanations.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a bunch of small changes built against 3.16-rc6.  The most
  significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns
  drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling.

  The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not
  allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the
  system wide root.  Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only,
  no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec
  mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing
  with a mounts atime settings.  I have included my test case as the
  last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify
  this change works correctly.

  The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing
  nsproxy users for the first optimization.  Today you can oops the
  kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever
  with pid namespaces.  I rebased and fixed the build of the
  !CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo.  Given
  that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo
  in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be
  backported as well.

  The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing
  /proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it.  This
  prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases.  It is a
  user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions
  so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line
  commits that can be trivially reverted.  Unfortunately I lost and
  could not find the email of the original reporter so he is not
  credited.  From at least one perspective this change to /proc/net is a
  refgression fix to allow pthread /proc/net uses that were broken by
  the introduction of the network namespace"

83293c0f5a shm: allow exit_shm in parallel if only marking orphans
If shm_rmid_force (the default state) is not set then the shmids are only
marked as orphaned and does not require any add, delete, or locking of the
tree structure.

Seperate the sysctl on and off case, and only obtain the read lock.  The
newly added list head can be deleted under the read lock because we are
only called with current and will only change the semids allocated by this
task and not manipulate the list.

This commit assumes that up_read includes a sufficient memory barrier for
the writes to be seen my others that later obtain a write lock.

ab602f7991 shm: make exit_shm work proportional to task activity
This is small set of patches our team has had kicking around for a few
versions internally that fixes tasks getting hung on shm_exit when there
are many threads hammering it at once.

Anton wrote a simple test to cause the issue:

  http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/bust_shm_exit.c

Before applying this patchset, this test code will cause either hanging
tracebacks or pthread out of memory errors.

After this patchset, it will still produce output like:

  root@somehost:~# ./bust_shm_exit 1024 160
  ...
  INFO: rcu_sched detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: {} (detected by 116, t=2111 jiffies, g=241, c=240, q=7113)
  INFO: Stall ended before state dump start
  ...

But the task will continue to run along happily, so we consider this an
improvement over hanging, even if it's a bit noisy.

This patch (of 3):

exit_shm obtains the ipc_ns shm rwsem for write and holds it while it
walks every shared memory segment in the namespace.  Thus the amount of
work is related to the number of shm segments in the namespace not the
number of segments that might need to be cleaned.

In addition, this occurs after the task has been notified the thread has
exited, so the number of tasks waiting for the ns shm rwsem can grow
without bound until memory is exausted.

Add a list to the task struct of all shmids allocated by this task.  Init
the list head in copy_process.  Use the ns->rwsem for locking.  Add
segments after id is added, remove before removing from id.

On unshare of NEW_IPCNS orphan any ids as if the task had exited, similar
to handling of semaphore undo.

I chose a define for the init sequence since its a simple list init,
otherwise it would require a function call to avoid include loops between
the semaphore code and the task struct.  Converting the list_del to
list_del_init for the unshare cases would remove the exit followed by
init, but I left it blow up if not inited.

728dba3a39 namespaces: Use task_lock and not rcu to protect nsproxy
The synchronous syncrhonize_rcu in switch_task_namespaces makes setns
a sufficiently expensive system call that people have complained.

Upon inspect nsproxy no longer needs rcu protection for remote reads.
remote reads are rare.  So optimize for same process reads and write
by switching using rask_lock instead.

This yields a simpler to understand lock, and a faster setns system call.

In particular this fixes a performance regression observed
by Rafael David Tinoco <rafael.tinoco@canonical.com>.

This is effectively a revert of Pavel Emelyanov's commit
cf7b708c8d Make access to task's nsproxy lighter
from 2007.  The race this originialy fixed no longer exists as
do_notify_parent uses task_active_pid_ns(parent) instead of
parent->nsproxy.

9b44ee2eef ipc/sem.c: add a printk_once for semctl(GETNCNT/GETZCNT)
The actual Linux implementation for semctl(GETNCNT) and semctl(GETZCNT)
always (since 0.99.10) reported a thread as sleeping on all semaphores
that are listed in the semop() call.

The documented behavior (both in the Linux man page and in the Single
Unix Specification) is that a task should be reported on exactly one
semaphore: The semaphore that caused the thread to got to sleep.

This patch adds a pr_info_once() that is triggered if a thread hits the
relevant case.

The code triggers slightly too often, otherwise it would be necessary to
replicate the old code.  As there are no known users of GETNCNT or
GETZCNT, this is done to prevent unnecessary bloat.

The task that triggered is reported with name (tsk->comm) and pid.

b220c57aec ipc/sem.c: make semctl(,,{GETNCNT,GETZCNT}) standard compliant
SUSv4 clearly defines how semncnt and semzcnt must be calculated: A task
waits on exactly one semaphore: The semaphore from the first operation
in the sop array that cannot proceed.

The Linux implementation never followed the standard, it tried to count
all semaphores that might be the reason why a task sleeps.

This patch fixes that.

Note:
a) The implementation assumes that GETNCNT and GETZCNT are rare operations,
   therefore the code counts them only on demand.
   (If they wouldn't be rare, then the non-compliance would have
   been found earlier)

b) compared to the initial version of the patch, the BUG_ONs were removed
   and it was clarified that the new behavior conforms to SUS.

Back-compatibility concerns:

Manfred:

: - there is no application in Fedora that uses GETNCNT or GETZCNT.
:
: - application that use only single-sop semop() are also safe, the
:   difference only affects complex apps.
:
: - portable application are also safe, the new behavior is standard
:   compliant.
:
: But that's it.  The old behavior existed in Linux from 0.99.something
: until now.

Michael:

: * These operations seem to be very little used.  Grepping the public
:   source that is contained Fedora 20 source DVD, there appear to be no
:   uses.  Of course, this says nothing about uses in private /
:   non-mainstream FOSS code, but it seems likely that the same pattern
:   is followed there.
:
: * The existing behavior is hard enough to understand that I suspect
:   that no one understood it well enough to rely on it anyway
:   (especially as that behavior contradicted both man page and POSIX).
:
: So, there's a chance of breakage, but I estimate that it's minute.

247a8ce822 ipc/shm.c: check for ulong overflows in shmat
The increase of SHMMAX/SHMALL is a 4 patch series.

The change itself is trivial, the only problem are interger overflows.
The overflows are not new, but if we make huge values the default, then
the code should be free from overflows.

SHMMAX:

- shmmem_file_setup places a hard limit on the segment size:
  MAX_LFS_FILESIZE.

  On 32-bit, the limit is > 1 TB, i.e. 4 GB-1 byte segments are
  possible. Rounded up to full pages the actual allocated size
  is 0. --> must be fixed, patch 3

- shmat:
  - find_vma_intersection does not handle overflows properly.
    --> must be fixed, patch 1

  - the rest is fine, do_mmap_pgoff limits mappings to TASK_SIZE
    and checks for overflows (i.e.: map 2 GB, starting from
    addr=2.5GB fails).

SHMALL:
- after creating 8192 segments size (1L<<63)-1, shm_tot overflows and
  returns 0.  --> must be fixed, patch 2.

Userspace:
- Obviously, there could be overflows in userspace. There is nothing
  we can do, only use values smaller than ULONG_MAX.
  I ended with "ULONG_MAX - 1L<<24":

  - TASK_SIZE cannot be used because it is the size of the current
    task. Could be 4G if it's a 32-bit task on a 64-bit kernel.

  - The maximum size is not standardized across archs:
    I found TASK_MAX_SIZE, TASK_SIZE_MAX and TASK_SIZE_64.

  - Just in case some arch revives a 4G/4G split, nearly
    ULONG_MAX is a valid segment size.

  - Using "0" as a magic value for infinity is even worse, because
    right now 0 means 0, i.e. fail all allocations.

This patch (of 4):

find_vma_intersection() does not work as intended if addr+size overflows.
The patch adds a manual check before the call to find_vma_intersection.

187841a800 ipc/compat.c: remove sc_semopm macro
This macro appears to have been introduced back in the 2.5 era for
semtimedop32 backward compatibility on ia32:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2003/4/28/78

Nowadays, this syscall in compat just defaults back to the code found in
sem.c, so it is no longer used and can thus be removed:

long compat_sys_semtimedop(int semid, struct sembuf __user *tsems,
		unsigned nsops, const struct compat_timespec __user *timeout)
{
	struct timespec __user *ts64;
	if (compat_convert_timespec(&ts64, timeout))
		return -EFAULT;
	return sys_semtimedop(semid, tsems, nsops, ts64);
}

Furthermore, there are no users in compat.c.  After this change, kernel
builds just fine with both CONFIG_SYSVIPC_COMPAT and CONFIG_SYSVIPC.

190f918660 Merge branch 'compat' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull s390 compat wrapper rework from Heiko Carstens:
 "S390 compat system call wrapper simplification work.

  The intention of this work is to get rid of all hand written assembly
  compat system call wrappers on s390, which perform proper sign or zero
  extension, or pointer conversion of compat system call parameters.
  Instead all of this should be done with C code eg by using Al's
  COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.

  Therefore all common code and s390 specific compat system calls have
  been converted to the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.

  In order to generate correct code all compat system calls may only
  have eg compat_ulong_t parameters, but no unsigned long parameters.
  Those patches which change parameter types from unsigned long to
  compat_ulong_t parameters are separate in this series, but shouldn't
  cause any harm.

  The only compat system calls which intentionally have 64 bit
  parameters (preadv64 and pwritev64) in support of the x86/32 ABI
  haven't been changed, but are now only available if an architecture
  defines __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_PREADV64/PWRITEV64.

  System calls which do not have a compat variant but still need proper
  zero extension on s390, like eg "long sys_brk(unsigned long brk)" will
  get a proper wrapper function with the new s390 specific
  COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAPx() macro:

     COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP1(brk, unsigned long, brk);

  which generates the following code (simplified):

     asmlinkage long sys_brk(unsigned long brk);
     asmlinkage long compat_sys_brk(long brk)
     {
         return sys_brk((u32)brk);
     }

  Given that the C file which contains all the COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP lines
  includes both linux/syscall.h and linux/compat.h, it will generate
  build errors, if the declaration of sys_brk() doesn't match, or if
  there exists a non-matching compat_sys_brk() declaration.

  In addition this will intentionally result in a link error if
  somewhere else a compat_sys_brk() function exists, which probably
  should have been used instead.  Two more BUILD_BUG_ONs make sure the
  size and type of each compat syscall parameter can be handled
  correctly with the s390 specific macros.

  I converted the compat system calls step by step to verify the
  generated code is correct and matches the previous code.  In fact it
  did not always match, however that was always a bug in the hand
  written asm code.

  In result we get less code, less bugs, and much more sanity checking"

4f87dac386 ipc: Fix 2 bugs in msgrcv() MSG_COPY implementation
While testing and documenting the msgrcv() MSG_COPY flag that Stanislav
Kinsbursky added in commit 4a674f34ba ("ipc: introduce message queue
copy feature" => kernel 3.8), I discovered a couple of bugs in the
implementation.  The two bugs concern MSG_COPY interactions with other
msgrcv() flags, namely:

 (A) MSG_COPY + MSG_EXCEPT
 (B) MSG_COPY + !IPC_NOWAIT

The bugs are distinct (and the fix for the first one is obvious),
however my fix for both is a single-line patch, which is why I'm
combining them in a single mail, rather than writing two mails+patches.

 ===== (A) MSG_COPY + MSG_EXCEPT =====

With the addition of the MSG_COPY flag, there are now two msgrcv()
flags--MSG_COPY and MSG_EXCEPT--that modify the meaning of the 'msgtyp'
argument in unrelated ways.  Specifying both in the same call is a
logical error that is currently permitted, with the effect that MSG_COPY
has priority and MSG_EXCEPT is ignored.  The call should give an error
if both flags are specified.  The patch below implements that behavior.

 ===== (B) (B) MSG_COPY + !IPC_NOWAIT =====

The test code that was submitted in commit 3a665531a3 ("selftests: IPC
message queue copy feature test") shows MSG_COPY being used in
conjunction with IPC_NOWAIT.  In other words, if there is no message at
the position 'msgtyp'.  return immediately with the error in ENOMSG.

What was not (fully) tested is the behavior if MSG_COPY is specified
*without* IPC_NOWAIT, and there is an odd behavior.  If the queue
contains less than 'msgtyp' messages, then the call blocks until the
next message is written to the queue.  At that point, the msgrcv() call
returns a copy of the newly added message, regardless of whether that
message is at the ordinal position 'msgtyp'.  This is clearly bogus, and
problematic for applications that might want to make use of the MSG_COPY
flag.

I considered the following possible solutions to this problem:

 (1) Force the call to block until a message *does* appear at the
     position 'msgtyp'.

 (2) If the MSG_COPY flag is specified, the kernel should implicitly add
     IPC_NOWAIT, so that the call fails with ENOMSG for this case.

 (3) If the MSG_COPY flag is specified, but IPC_NOWAIT is not, generate
     an error (probably, EINVAL is the right one).

I do not know if any application would really want to have the
functionality of solution (1), especially since an application can
determine in advance the number of messages in the queue using msgctl()
IPC_STAT.  Obviously, this solution would be the most work to implement.

Solution (2) would have the effect of silently fixing any applications
that tried to employ broken behavior.  However, it would mean that if we
later decided to implement solution (1), then user-space could not
easily detect what the kernel supports (but, since I'm somewhat doubtful
that solution (1) is needed, I'm not sure that this is much of a
problem).

Solution (3) would have the effect of informing broken applications that
they are doing something broken.  The downside is that this would cause
a ABI breakage for any applications that are currently employing the
broken behavior.  However:

a) Those applications are almost certainly not getting the results they
   expect.
b) Possibly, those applications don't even exist, because MSG_COPY is
   currently hidden behind CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.

The upside of solution (3) is that if we later decided to implement
solution (1), user-space could determine what the kernel supports, via
the error return.

In my view, solution (3) is mildly preferable to solution (2), and
solution (1) could still be done later if anyone really cares.  The
patch below implements solution (3).

PS.  For anyone out there still listening, it's the usual story:
documenting an API (and the thinking about, and the testing of the API,
that documentation entails) is the one of the single best ways of
finding bugs in the API, as I've learned from a lot of experience.  Best
to do that documentation before releasing the API.

f3713fd9cf ipc,mqueue: remove limits for the amount of system-wide queues
Commit 93e6f119c0 ("ipc/mqueue: cleanup definition names and
locations") added global hardcoded limits to the amount of message
queues that can be created.  While these limits are per-namespace,
reality is that it ends up breaking userspace applications.
Historically users have, at least in theory, been able to create up to
INT_MAX queues, and limiting it to just 1024 is way too low and dramatic
for some workloads and use cases.  For instance, Madars reports:

 "This update imposes bad limits on our multi-process application.  As
  our app uses approaches that each process opens its own set of queues
  (usually something about 3-5 queues per process).  In some scenarios
  we might run up to 3000 processes or more (which of-course for linux
  is not a problem).  Thus we might need up to 9000 queues or more.  All
  processes run under one user."

Other affected users can be found in launchpad bug #1155695:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/manpages/+bug/1155695

Instead of increasing this limit, revert it entirely and fallback to the
original way of dealing queue limits -- where once a user's resource
limit is reached, and all memory is used, new queues cannot be created.

81993e81a9 compat: Get rid of (get|put)_compat_time(val|spec)
We have two APIs for compatiblity timespec/val, with confusingly
similar names.  compat_(get|put)_time(val|spec) *do* handle the case
where COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is set, whereas
(get|put)_compat_time(val|spec) do not.  This is an accident waiting
to happen.

Clean it up by favoring the full-service version; the limited version
is replaced with double-underscore versions static to kernel/compat.c.

A common pattern is to convert a struct timespec to kernel format in
an allocation on the user stack.  Unfortunately it is open-coded in
several places.  Since this allocation isn't actually needed if
COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is true (since user format == kernel format)
encapsulate that whole pattern into the function
compat_convert_timespec().  An equivalent function should be written
for struct timeval if it is needed in the future.

Finally, get rid of compat_(get|put)_timeval_convert(): each was only
used once, and the latter was not even doing what the function said
(no conversion actually was being done.)  Moving the conversion into
compat_sys_settimeofday() itself makes the code much more similar to
sys_settimeofday() itself.

v3: Remove unused compat_convert_timeval().

v2: Drop bogus "const" in the destination argument for
    compat_convert_time*().

of IPC_RMID race windows were opened because we ended up dropping the

78f5009cc3 ipc/sem.c: avoid overflow of semop undo (semadj) value
When trying to understand semop code, I found a small mistake in the check
for semadj (undo) value overflow.  The new undo value is not stored
immediately and next potential checks are done against the old value.

The failing scenario is not much practical.  One semop call has to do more
operations on the same semaphore.  Also semval and semadj must have
different values, so there has to be some operations without SEM_UNDO
flag.  For example:

	struct sembuf depositor_op[1];
	struct sembuf collector_op[2];

	depositor_op[0].sem_num = 0;
	depositor_op[0].sem_op = 20000;
	depositor_op[0].sem_flg = 0;

	collector_op[0].sem_num = 0;
	collector_op[0].sem_op = -10000;
	collector_op[0].sem_flg = SEM_UNDO;
	collector_op[1].sem_num = 0;
	collector_op[1].sem_op = -10000;
	collector_op[1].sem_flg = SEM_UNDO;

	if (semop(semid, depositor_op, 1) == -1)
		{ perror("Failed to do 1st deposit"); return 1; }

	if (semop(semid, collector_op, 2) == -1)
		{ perror("Failed to do 1st collect"); return 1; }

	if (semop(semid, depositor_op, 1) == -1)
		{ perror("Failed to do 2nd deposit"); return 1; }

	if (semop(semid, collector_op, 2) == -1)
		{ perror("Failed to do 2nd collect"); return 1; }

	return 0;

It passes without error now but the semadj value has overflown in the 2nd
collector operation.

3a72660b07 ipc,shm: correct error return value in shmctl (SHM_UNLOCK)
Commit 2caacaa82a ("ipc,shm: shorten critical region for shmctl")
restructured the ipc shm to shorten critical region, but introduced a
path where the return value could be -EPERM, even if the operation
actually was performed.

Before the commit, the err return value was reset by the return value
from security_shm_shmctl() after the if (!ns_capable(...)) statement.

Now, we still exit the if statement with err set to -EPERM, and in the
case of SHM_UNLOCK, it is not reset at all, and used as the return value
from shmctl.

To fix this, we only set err when errors occur, leaving the fallthrough
case alone.

a399b29dfb ipc,shm: fix shm_file deletion races
When IPC_RMID races with other shm operations there's potential for
use-after-free of the shm object's associated file (shm_file).

Here's the race before this patch:

  TASK 1                     TASK 2
  ------                     ------
  shm_rmid()
    ipc_lock_object()
                             shmctl()
                             shp = shm_obtain_object_check()

    shm_destroy()
      shum_unlock()
      fput(shp->shm_file)
                             ipc_lock_object()
                             shmem_lock(shp->shm_file)
                             <OOPS>

The oops is caused because shm_destroy() calls fput() after dropping the
ipc_lock.  fput() clears the file's f_inode, f_path.dentry, and
f_path.mnt, which causes various NULL pointer references in task 2.  I
reliably see the oops in task 2 if with shmlock, shmu

This patch fixes the races by:
1) set shm_file=NULL in shm_destroy() while holding ipc_object_lock().
2) modify at risk operations to check shm_file while holding
   ipc_object_lock().

Example workloads, which each trigger oops...

Workload 1:
  while true; do
    id=$(shmget 1 4096)
    shm_rmid $id &
    shmlock $id &
    wait
  done

  The oops stack shows accessing NULL f_inode due to racing fput:
    _raw_spin_lock
    shmem_lock
    SyS_shmctl

Workload 2:
  while true; do
    id=$(shmget 1 4096)
    shmat $id 4096 &
    shm_rmid $id &
    wait
  done

  The oops stack is similar to workload 1 due to NULL f_inode:
    touch_atime
    shmem_mmap
    shm_mmap
    mmap_region
    do_mmap_pgoff
    do_shmat
    SyS_shmat

Workload 3:
  while true; do
    id=$(shmget 1 4096)
    shmlock $id
    shm_rmid $id &
    shmunlock $id &
    wait
  done

  The oops stack shows second fput tripping on an NULL f_inode.  The
  first fput() completed via from shm_destroy(), but a racing thread did
  a get_file() and queued this fput():
    locks_remove_flock
    __fput
    ____fput
    task_work_run
    do_notify_resume
    int_signal

4e9b45a192 ipc, msg: fix message length check for negative values
On 64 bit systems the test for negative message sizes is bogus as the
size, which may be positive when evaluated as a long, will get truncated
to an int when passed to load_msg().  So a long might very well contain a
positive value but when truncated to an int it would become negative.

That in combination with a small negative value of msg_ctlmax (which will
be promoted to an unsigned type for the comparison against msgsz, making
it a big positive value and therefore make it pass the check) will lead to
two problems: 1/ The kmalloc() call in alloc_msg() will allocate a too
small buffer as the addition of alen is effectively a subtraction.  2/ The
copy_from_user() call in load_msg() will first overflow the buffer with
userland data and then, when the userland access generates an access
violation, the fixup handler copy_user_handle_tail() will try to fill the
remainder with zeros -- roughly 4GB.  That almost instantly results in a
system crash or reset.

  ,-[ Reproducer (needs to be run as root) ]--
  | #include <sys/stat.h>
  | #include <sys/msg.h>
  | #include <unistd.h>
  | #include <fcntl.h>
  |
  | int main(void) {
  |     long msg = 1;
  |     int fd;
  |
  |     fd = open("/proc/sys/kernel/msgmax", O_WRONLY);
  |     write(fd, "-1", 2);
  |     close(fd);
  |
  |     msgsnd(0, &msg, 0xfffffff0, IPC_NOWAIT);
  |
  |     return 0;
  | }
  '---

Fix the issue by preventing msgsz from getting truncated by consistently
using size_t for the message length.  This way the size checks in
do_msgsnd() could still be passed with a negative value for msg_ctlmax but
we would fail on the buffer allocation in that case and error out.

Also change the type of m_ts from int to size_t to avoid similar nastiness
in other code paths -- it is used in similar constructs, i.e.  signed vs.
unsigned checks.  It should never become negative under normal
circumstances, though.

Setting msg_ctlmax to a negative value is an odd configuration and should
be prevented.  As that might break existing userland, it will be handled
in a separate commit so it could easily be reverted and reworked without
reintroducing the above described bug.

Hardening mechanisms for user copy operations would have catched that bug
early -- e.g.  checking slab object sizes on user copy operations as the
usercopy feature of the PaX patch does.  Or, for that matter, detect the
long vs.  int sign change due to truncation, as the size overflow plugin
of the very same patch does.

b21996e36c locks: break delegations on unlink
We need to break delegations on any operation that changes the set of
links pointing to an inode.  Start with unlink.

Such operations also hold the i_mutex on a parent directory.  Breaking a
delegation may require waiting for a timeout (by default 90 seconds) in
the case of a unresponsive NFS client.  To avoid blocking all directory
operations, we therefore drop locks before waiting for the delegation.
The logic then looks like:

	acquire locks
	...
	test for delegation; if found:
		take reference on inode
		release locks
		wait for delegation break
		drop reference on inode
		retry

It is possible this could never terminate.  (Even if we take precautions
to prevent another delegation being acquired on the same inode, we could
get a different inode on each retry.)  But this seems very unlikely.

The initial test for a delegation happens after the lock on the target
inode is acquired, but the directory inode may have been acquired
further up the call stack.  We therefore add a "struct inode **"
argument to any intervening functions, which we use to pass the inode
back up to the caller in the case it needs a delegation synchronously
broken.

9bf76ca325 ipc, msg: forbid negative values for "msg{max,mnb,mni}"
Negative message lengths make no sense -- so don't do negative queue
lenghts or identifier counts. Prevent them from getting negative.

Also change the underlying data types to be unsigned to avoid hairy
surprises with sign extensions in cases where those variables get
evaluated in unsigned expressions with bigger data types, e.g size_t.

In case a user still wants to have "unlimited" sizes she could just use
INT_MAX instead.

6e224f9459 ipc/sem.c: synchronize semop and semctl with IPC_RMID
After acquiring the semlock spinlock, operations must test that the
array is still valid.

 - semctl() and exit_sem() would walk stale linked lists (ugly, but
   should be ok: all lists are empty)

 - semtimedop() would sleep forever - and if woken up due to a signal -
   access memory after free.

The patch also:
 - standardizes the tests for .deleted, so that all tests in one
   function leave the function with the same approach.
 - unconditionally tests for .deleted immediately after every call to
   sem_lock - even it it means that for semctl(GETALL), .deleted will be
   tested twice.

Both changes make the review simpler: After every sem_lock, there must
be a test of .deleted, followed by a goto to the cleanup code (if the
function uses "goto cleanup").

The only exception is semctl_down(): If sem_ids().rwsem is locked, then
the presence in ids->ipcs_idr is equivalent to !.deleted, thus no
additional test is required.

4271b05a22 ipc,msg: prevent race with rmid in msgsnd,msgrcv
This fixes a race in both msgrcv() and msgsnd() between finding the msg
and actually dealing with the queue, as another thread can delete shmid
underneath us if we are preempted before acquiring the
kern_ipc_perm.lock.

Manfred illustrates this nicely:

Assume a preemptible kernel that is preempted just after

    msq = msq_obtain_object_check(ns, msqid)

in do_msgrcv().  The only lock that is held is rcu_read_lock().

Now the other thread processes IPC_RMID.  When the first task is
resumed, then it will happily wait for messages on a deleted queue.

Fix this by checking for if the queue has been deleted after taking the
lock.

0e8c665699 ipc/sem.c: update sem_otime for all operations

spinlock section"), the update of semaphore's sem_otime(last semop time)
was moved to one central position (do_smart_update).

But since do_smart_update() is only called for operations that modify
the array, this means that wait-for-zero semops do not update sem_otime
anymore.

The fix is simple:
Non-alter operations must update sem_otime.

can run in parallel with the proc interface.  Right now, this is

6d07b68ce1 ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock()
Operations that need access to the whole array must guarantee that there
are no simple operations ongoing.  Right now this is achieved by
spin_unlock_wait(sem->lock) on all semaphores.

If complex_count is nonzero, then this spin_unlock_wait() is not
necessary, because it was already performed in the past by the thread
that increased complex_count and even though sem_perm.lock was dropped
inbetween, no simple operation could have started, because simple
operations cannot start when complex_count is non-zero.

5e9d527591 ipc/sem.c: fix race in sem_lock()
The exclusion of complex operations in sem_lock() is insufficient: after
acquiring the per-semaphore lock, a simple op must first check that
sem_perm.lock is not locked and only after that test check
complex_count.  The current code does it the other way around - and that
creates a race.  Details are below.

The patch is a complete rewrite of sem_lock(), based in part on the code
from Mike Galbraith.  It removes all gotos and all loops and thus the
risk of livelocks.

I have tested the patch (together with the next one) on my i3 laptop and
it didn't cause any problems.

The bug is probably also present in 3.10 and 3.11, but for these kernels
it might be simpler just to move the test of sma->complex_count after
the spin_is_locked() test.

Details of the bug:

Assume:
 - sma->complex_count = 0.
 - Thread 1: semtimedop(complex op that must sleep)
 - Thread 2: semtimedop(simple op).

53dad6d3a8 ipc: fix race with LSMs
Currently, IPC mechanisms do security and auditing related checks under
RCU.  However, since security modules can free the security structure,
for example, through selinux_[sem,msg_queue,shm]_free_security(), we can
race if the structure is freed before other tasks are done with it,
creating a use-after-free condition.  Manfred illustrates this nicely,
for instance with shared mem and selinux:

 -> do_shmat calls rcu_read_lock()
 -> do_shmat calls shm_object_check().
     Checks that the object is still valid - but doesn't acquire any locks.
     Then it returns.
 -> do_shmat calls security_shm_shmat (e.g. selinux_shm_shmat)
 -> selinux_shm_shmat calls ipc_has_perm()
 -> ipc_has_perm accesses ipc_perms->security

shm_close()
 -> shm_close acquires rw_mutex & shm_lock
 -> shm_close calls shm_destroy
 -> shm_destroy calls security_shm_free (e.g. selinux_shm_free_security)
 -> selinux_shm_free_security calls ipc_free_security(&shp->shm_perm)
 -> ipc_free_security calls kfree(ipc_perms->security)

This patch delays the freeing of the security structures after all RCU
readers are done.  Furthermore it aligns the security life cycle with
that of the rest of IPC - freeing them based on the reference counter.
For situations where we need not free security, the current behavior is
kept.  Linus states:

 "... the old behavior was suspect for another reason too: having the
  security blob go away from under a user sounds like it could cause
  various other problems anyway, so I think the old code was at least
  _prone_ to bugs even if it didn't have catastrophic behavior."

I have tested this patch with IPC testcases from LTP on both my
quad-core laptop and on a 64 core NUMA server.  In both cases selinux is
enabled, and tests pass for both voluntary and forced preemption models.
While the mentioned races are theoretical (at least no one as reported
them), I wanted to make sure that this new logic doesn't break anything
we weren't aware of.

530fcd16d8 ipc, shm: guard against non-existant vma in shmdt(2)
When !CONFIG_MMU there's a chance we can derefence a NULL pointer when the
VM area isn't found - check the return value of find_vma().

Also, remove the redundant -EINVAL return: retval is set to the proper
return code and *only* changed to 0, when we actually unmap the segments.

05603c44a7 ipc: document general ipc locking scheme
As suggested by Andrew, add a generic initial locking scheme used
throughout all sysv ipc mechanisms.  Documenting the ids rwsem, how rcu
can be enough to do the initial checks and when to actually acquire the
kern_ipc_perm.lock spinlock.

I found that adding it to util.c was generic enough.
