If semctl(), msgctl() and shmctl() are called with IPC_INFO, SEM_INFO, MSG_INFO or SHM_INFO, then the return value is the index of the highest used index in the kernel's internal array recording information about all SysV objects of the requested type for the current namespace. (This information can be used with repeated ..._STAT or ..._STAT_ANY operations to obtain information about all SysV objects on the system.) There is a cache for this value. But when the cache needs up be updated, then the highest used index is determined by looping over all possible values. With the introduction of IPCMNI_EXTEND_SHIFT, this could be a loop over 16 million entries. And due to /proc/sys/kernel/*next_id, the index values do not need to be consecutive. With <write 16000000 to msg_next_id>, msgget(), msgctl(,IPC_RMID) in a loop, I have observed a performance increase of around factor 13000. As there is no get_last() function for idr structures: Implement a "get_last()" using a binary search. As far as I see, ipc is the only user that needs get_last(), thus implement it in ipc/util.c and not in a central location.

The patch solves three weaknesses in ipc/sem.c: 1) The initial read of use_global_lock in sem_lock() is an intentional race. KCSAN detects these accesses and prints a warning. 2) The code assumes that plain C read/writes are not mangled by the CPU or the compiler. 3) The comment it sysvipc_sem_proc_show() was hard to understand: The rest of the comments in ipc/sem.c speaks about sem_perm.lock, and suddenly this function speaks about ipc_lock_object(). To solve 1) and 2), use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Plain C reads are used in code that owns sma->sem_perm.lock.

msg_queue and shmid_kernel are quite small objects, no need to use kvmalloc for them. mhocko@: "Both of them are 256B on most 64b systems." Previously these objects was allocated via ipc_alloc/ipc_rcu_alloc(), common function for several ipc objects. It had kvmalloc call inside(). Later, this function went away and was finally replaced by direct kvmalloc call, and now we can use more suitable kmalloc/kfree for them.

Patch series "ipc: allocations cleanup", v2. Some ipc objects use the wrong allocation functions: small objects can use kmalloc(), and vice versa, potentially large objects can use kmalloc(). This patch (of 2): Size of sem_undo can exceed one page and with the maximum possible nsems = 32000 it can grow up to 64Kb. Let's switch its allocation to kvmalloc to avoid user-triggered disruptive actions like OOM killer in case of high-order memory shortage. User triggerable high order allocations are quite a problem on heavily fragmented systems. They can be a DoS vector.

do_mq_timedreceive calls wq_sleep with a stack local address. The sender (do_mq_timedsend) uses this address to later call pipelined_send. This leads to a very hard to trigger race where a do_mq_timedreceive call might return and leave do_mq_timedsend to rely on an invalid address, causing the following crash: RIP: 0010:wake_q_add_safe+0x13/0x60 Call Trace: __x64_sys_mq_timedsend+0x2a9/0x490 do_syscall_64+0x80/0x680 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 RIP: 0033:0x7f5928e40343 The race occurs as: 1. do_mq_timedreceive calls wq_sleep with the address of `struct ext_wait_queue` on function stack (aliased as `ewq_addr` here) - it holds a valid `struct ext_wait_queue *` as long as the stack has not been overwritten. 2. `ewq_addr` gets added to info->e_wait_q[RECV].list in wq_add, and do_mq_timedsend receives it via wq_get_first_waiter(info, RECV) to call __pipelined_op. 3. Sender calls __pipelined_op::smp_store_release(&this->state, STATE_READY). Here is where the race window begins. (`this` is `ewq_addr`.) 4. If the receiver wakes up now in do_mq_timedreceive::wq_sleep, it will see `state == STATE_READY` and break. 5. do_mq_timedreceive returns, and `ewq_addr` is no longer guaranteed to be a `struct ext_wait_queue *` since it was on do_mq_timedreceive's stack. (Although the address may not get overwritten until another function happens to touch it, which means it can persist around for an indefinite time.) 6. do_mq_timedsend::__pipelined_op() still believes `ewq_addr` is a `struct ext_wait_queue *`, and uses it to find a task_struct to pass to the wake_q_add_safe call. In the lucky case where nothing has overwritten `ewq_addr` yet, `ewq_addr->task` is the right task_struct. In the unlucky case, __pipelined_op::wake_q_add_safe gets handed a bogus address as the receiver's task_struct causing the crash. do_mq_timedsend::__pipelined_op() should not dereference `this` after setting STATE_READY, as the receiver counterpart is now free to return. Change __pipelined_op to call wake_q_add_safe on the receiver's task_struct returned by get_task_struct, instead of dereferencing `this` which sits on the receiver's stack. As Manfred pointed out, the race potentially also exists in ipc/msg.c::expunge_all and ipc/sem.c::wake_up_sem_queue_prepare. Fix those in the same way.

Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all relevant helpers in earlier patches. As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

The various vfs_*() helpers are called by filesystems or by the vfs itself to perform core operations such as create, link, mkdir, mknod, rename, rmdir, tmpfile and unlink. Enable them to handle idmapped mounts. If the inode is accessed through an idmapped mount map it into the mount's user namespace and pass it down. Afterwards the checks and operations are identical to non-idmapped mounts. If the initial user namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical behavior as before.

The two helpers inode_permission() and generic_permission() are used by the vfs to perform basic permission checking by verifying that the caller is privileged over an inode. In order to handle idmapped mounts we extend the two helpers with an additional user namespace argument. On idmapped mounts the two helpers will make sure to map the inode according to the mount's user namespace and then peform identical permission checks to inode_permission() and generic_permission(). If the initial user namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical behavior as before.

Switch over ipc namespaces to use the newly introduced common lifetime counter. Currently every namespace type has its own lifetime counter which is stored in the specific namespace struct. The lifetime counters are used identically for all namespaces types. Namespaces may of course have additional unrelated counters and these are not altered. This introduces a common lifetime counter into struct ns_common. The ns_common struct encompasses information that all namespaces share. That should include the lifetime counter since its common for all of them. It also allows us to unify the type of the counters across all namespaces. Most of them use refcount_t but one uses atomic_t and at least one uses kref. Especially the last one doesn't make much sense since it's just a wrapper around refcount_t since 2016 and actually complicates cleanup operations by having to use container_of() to cast the correct namespace struct out of struct ns_common. Having the lifetime counter for the namespaces in one place reduces maintenance cost. Not just because after switching all namespaces over we will have removed more code than we added but also because the logic is more easily understandable and we indicate to the user that the basic lifetime requirements for all namespaces are currently identical.

The current split between do_mmap() and do_mmap_pgoff() was introduced in commit 1fcfd8db ("mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to do_mmap_pgoff()") to support MPX. The wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff() always passed 0 as the value of the vm_flags argument to do_mmap(). However, MPX support has subsequently been removed from the kernel and there were no more direct callers of do_mmap(); all calls were going via do_mmap_pgoff(). Simplify the code by removing do_mmap_pgoff() and changing all callers to directly call do_mmap(), which now no longer takes a vm_flags argument. Signed-off-by:

Add a simple struct nsset. It holds all necessary pieces to switch to a new set of namespaces without leaving a task in a half-switched state which we will make use of in the next patch. This patch switches the existing setns logic over without causing a change in setns() behavior. This brings setns() closer to how unshare() works(). The prepare_ns() function is responsible to prepare all necessary information. This has two reasons. First it minimizes dependencies between individual namespaces, i.e. all install handler can expect that all fields are properly initialized independent in what order they are called in. Second, this makes the code easier to maintain and easier to follow if it needs to be changed. The prepare_ns() helper will only be switched over to use a flags argument in the next patch. Here it will still use nstype as a simple integer argument which was argued would be clearer. I'm not particularly opinionated about this if it really helps or not. The struct nsset itself already contains the flags field since its name already indicates that it can contain information required by different namespaces. None of this should have functional consequences. Signed-off-by:

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit safer. As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers a lot of the changes are mechnical. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit a9795584. Commit a9795584 ("ipc,sem: remove uneeded sem_undo_list lock usage in exit_sem()") removes a lock that is needed. This leads to a process looping infinitely in exit_sem() and can also lead to a crash. There is a reproducer available in [1] and with the commit reverted the issue does not reproduce anymore. Using the reproducer found in [1] is fairly easy to reach a point where one of the child processes is looping infinitely in exit_sem between for(;;) and if (semid == -1) block, while it's trying to free its last sem_undo structure which has already been freed by freeary(). Each sem_undo struct is on two lists: one per semaphore set (list_id) and one per process (list_proc). The list_id list tracks undos by semaphore set, and the list_proc by process. Undo structures are removed either by freeary() or by exit_sem(). The freeary function is invoked when the user invokes a syscall to remove a semaphore set. During this operation freeary() traverses the list_id associated with the semaphore set and removes the undo structures from both the list_id and list_proc lists. For this case, exit_sem() is called at process exit. Each process contains a struct sem_undo_list (referred to as "ulp") which contains the head for the list_proc list. When the process exits, exit_sem() traverses this list to remove each sem_undo struct. As in freeary(), whenever a sem_undo struct is removed from list_proc, it is also removed from the list_id list. Removing elements from list_id is safe for both exit_sem() and freeary() due to sem_lock(). Removing elements from list_proc is not safe; freeary() locks &un->ulp->lock when it performs list_del_rcu(&un->list_proc) but exit_sem() does not (locking was removed by commit a9795584 ("ipc,sem: remove uneeded sem_undo_list lock usage in exit_sem()"). This can result in the following situation while executing the reproducer [1] : Consider a child process in exit_sem() and the parent in freeary() (because of semctl(sid[i], NSEM, IPC_RMID)). - The list_proc for the child contains the last two undo structs A and B (the rest have been removed either by exit_sem() or freeary()). - The semid for A is 1 and semid for B is 2. - exit_sem() removes A and at the same time freeary() removes B. - Since A and B have different semid sem_lock() will acquire different locks for each process and both can proceed. The bug is that they remove A and B from the same list_proc at the same time because only freeary() acquires the ulp lock. When exit_sem() removes A it makes ulp->list_proc.next to point at B and at the same time freeary() removes B setting B->semid=-1. At the next iteration of for(;;) loop exit_sem() will try to remove B. The only way to break from for(;;) is for (&un->list_proc == &ulp->list_proc) to be true which is not. Then exit_sem() will check if B->semid=-1 which is and will continue looping in for(;;) until the memory for B is reallocated and the value at B->semid is changed. At that point, exit_sem() will crash attempting to unlink B from the lists (this can be easily triggered by running the reproducer [1] a second time). To prove this scenario instrumentation was added to keep information about each sem_undo (un) struct that is removed per process and per semaphore set (sma). CPU0 CPU1 [caller holds sem_lock(sma for A)] ... freeary() exit_sem() ... ... ... sem_lock(sma for B) spin_lock(A->ulp->lock) ... list_del_rcu(un_A->list_proc) list_del_rcu(un_B->list_proc) Undo structures A and B have different semid and sem_lock() operations proceed. However they belong to the same list_proc list and they are removed at the same time. This results into ulp->list_proc.next pointing to the address of B which is already removed. After reverting commit a9795584 ("ipc,sem: remove uneeded sem_undo_list lock usage in exit_sem()") the issue was no longer reproducible.

Document and update the memory barriers in ipc/sem.c: - Add smp_store_release() to wake_up_sem_queue_prepare() and document why it is needed. - Read q->status using READ_ONCE+smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep(). as the pair for the barrier inside wake_up_sem_queue_prepare(). - Add comments to all barriers, and mention the rules in the block regarding locking. - Switch to using wake_q_add_safe().

Transfer findings from ipc/mqueue.c: - A control barrier was missing for the lockless receive case So in theory, not yet initialized data may have been copied to user space - obviously only for architectures where control barriers are not NOP. - use smp_store_release(). In theory, the refount may have been decreased to 0 already when wake_q_add() tries to get a reference. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191020123305.14715-5-manfred@colorfullife.com Signed-off-by:

Update and document memory barriers for mqueue.c: - ewp->state is read without any locks, thus READ_ONCE is required. - add smp_aquire__after_ctrl_dep() after the READ_ONCE, we need acquire semantics if the value is STATE_READY. - use wake_q_add_safe() - document why __set_current_state() may be used: Reading task->state cannot happen before the wake_q_add() call, which happens while holding info->lock. Thus the spin_unlock() is the RELEASE, and the spin_lock() is the ACQUIRE. For completeness: there is also a 3 CPU scenario, if the to be woken up task is already on another wake_q. Then: - CPU1: spin_unlock() of the task that goes to sleep is the RELEASE - CPU2: the spin_lock() of the waker is the ACQUIRE - CPU2: smp_mb__before_atomic inside wake_q_add() is the RELEASE - CPU3: smp_mb__after_spinlock() inside try_to_wake_up() is the ACQUIRE Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191020123305.14715-4-manfred@colorfullife.com Signed-off-by:
