ipc has two management structures that exist for every id: - struct kern_ipc_perm, it contains e.g. the permissions. - struct ipc_rcu, it contains the rcu head for rcu handling and the refcount. The patch merges both structures. As a bonus, we may save one cacheline, because both structures are cacheline aligned. In addition, it reduces the number of casts, instead most codepaths can use container_of. To simplify code, the ipc_rcu_alloc initializes the allocation to 0.

The retry logic for netlink_attachskb() inside sys_mq_notify() is nasty and vulnerable: 1) The sock refcnt is already released when retry is needed 2) The fd is controllable by user-space because we already release the file refcnt so we when retry but the fd has been just closed by user-space during this small window, we end up calling netlink_detachskb() on the error path which releases the sock again, later when the user-space closes this socket a use-after-free could be triggered. Setting 'sock' to NULL here should be sufficient to fix it.

Patch series "kvmalloc", v5. There are many open coded kmalloc with vmalloc fallback instances in the tree. Most of them are not careful enough or simply do not care about the underlying semantic of the kmalloc/page allocator which means that a) some vmalloc fallbacks are basically unreachable because the kmalloc part will keep retrying until it succeeds b) the page allocator can invoke a really disruptive steps like the OOM killer to move forward which doesn't sound appropriate when we consider that the vmalloc fallback is available. As it can be seen implementing kvmalloc requires quite an intimate knowledge if the page allocator and the memory reclaim internals which strongly suggests that a helper should be implemented in the memory subsystem proper. Most callers, I could find, have been converted to use the helper instead. This is patch 6. There are some more relying on __GFP_REPEAT in the networking stack which I have converted as well and Eric Dumazet was not opposed [2] to convert them as well. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170130094940.13546-1-mhocko@kernel.org [2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1485273626.16328.301.camel@edumazet-glaptop3.roam.corp.google.com This patch (of 9): Using kmalloc with the vmalloc fallback for larger allocations is a common pattern in the kernel code. Yet we do not have any common helper for that and so users have invented their own helpers. Some of them are really creative when doing so. Let's just add kv[mz]alloc and make sure it is implemented properly. This implementation makes sure to not make a large memory pressure for > PAGE_SZE requests (__GFP_NORETRY) and also to not warn about allocation failures. This also rules out the OOM killer as the vmalloc is a more approapriate fallback than a disruptive user visible action. This patch also changes some existing users and removes helpers which are specific for them. In some cases this is not possible (e.g. ext4_kvmalloc, libcfs_kvzalloc) because those seems to be broken and require GFP_NO{FS,IO} context which is not vmalloc compatible in general (note that the page table allocation is GFP_KERNEL). Those need to be fixed separately. While we are at it, document that __vmalloc{_node} about unsupported gfp mask because there seems to be a lot of confusion out there. kvmalloc_node will warn about GFP_KERNEL incompatible (which are not superset) flags to catch new abusers. Existing ones would have to die slowly.

The issue is described here, with a nice testcase: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192931 The problem is that shmat() calls do_mmap_pgoff() with MAP_FIXED, and the address rounded down to 0. For the regular mmap case, the protection mentioned above is that the kernel gets to generate the address -- arch_get_unmapped_area() will always check for MAP_FIXED and return that address. So by the time we do security_mmap_addr(0) things get funky for shmat(). The testcase itself shows that while a regular user crashes, root will not have a problem attaching a nil-page. There are two possible fixes to this. The first, and which this patch does, is to simply allow root to crash as well -- this is also regular mmap behavior, ie when hacking up the testcase and adding mmap(... |MAP_FIXED). While this approach is the safer option, the second alternative is to ignore SHM_RND if the rounded address is 0, thus only having MAP_SHARED flags. This makes the behavior of shmat() identical to the mmap() case. The downside of this is obviously user visible, but does make sense in that it maintains semantics after the round-down wrt 0 address and mmap. Passes shm related ltp tests.

sysv sem has two lock modes: One with per-semaphore locks, one lock mode with a single global lock for the whole array. When switching from the per-semaphore locks to the global lock, all per-semaphore locks must be scanned for ongoing operations. The patch adds a hysteresis for switching from the global lock to the per semaphore locks. This reduces how often the per-semaphore locks must be scanned. Compared to the initial patch, this is a simplified solution: Setting USE_GLOBAL_LOCK_HYSTERESIS to 1 restores the current behavior. In theory, a workload with exactly 10 simple sops and then one complex op now scales a bit worse, but this is pure theory: If there is concurrency, the it won't be exactly 10:1:10:1:10:1:... If there is no concurrency, then there is no need for scalability.

a) The ACQUIRE in spin_lock() applies to the read, not to the store, at least for powerpc. This forces to add a smp_mb() into the fast path. b) The memory barrier provided by spin_unlock_wait() is right now arch dependent. Therefore: Use spin_lock()/spin_unlock() instead of spin_unlock_wait(). Advantage: faster single op semop calls(), observed +8.9% on x86. (the other solution would be arch dependencies in ipc/sem). Disadvantage: slower complex op semop calls, if (and only if) there are no sleeping operations. The next patch adds hysteresis, this further reduces the probability that the slow path is used.

When a non-cooperative userfaultfd monitor copies pages in the background, it may encounter regions that were already unmapped. Addition of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP allows the uffd monitor to track precisely changes in the virtual memory layout. Since there might be different uffd contexts for the affected VMAs, we first should create a temporary representation for the unmap event for each uffd context and then notify them one by one to the appropriate userfault file descriptors. The event notification occurs after the mmap_sem has been released.

->fault(), ->page_mkwrite(), and ->pfn_mkwrite() calls do not need to take a vma and vmf parameter when the vma already resides in vmf. Remove the vma parameter to simplify things.

Based on the syzcaller test case from dvyukov: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dvyukov/d0e5efefe4d7d6daed829f5c3ca26a40/raw/08d0a261fe3c987bed04fbf267e08ba04bd533ea/gistfile1.txt The slow (i.e.: failure to acquire) syscall exit from semtimedop() incorrectly assumed that the the same lock is acquired as it was at the initial syscall entry. This is wrong: - thread A: single semop semop(), sleeps - thread B: multi semop semop(), sleeps - thread A: woken up by signal/timeout With this sequence, the initial sem_lock() call locks the per-semaphore spinlock, and it is unlocked with sem_unlock(). The call at the syscall return locks the global spinlock. Because locknum is not updated, the following sem_unlock() call unlocks the per-semaphore spinlock, which is actually not locked. The fix is trivial: Use the return value from sem_lock.

We can avoid the idr tree lookup (albeit possibly avoiding idr_find_fast()) when being awoken in EINTR, as the semid will not change in this context while blocked. Use the sma pointer directly and take the sem_lock, then re-check for RMID races. We continue to re-check the queue.status with the lock held such that we can detect situations where we where are dealing with a spurious wakeup but another task that holds the sem_lock updated the queue.status while we were spinning for it. Once we take the lock it obviously won't change again. Being the only caller, get rid of sem_obtain_lock() altogether.

Instead of using the reverse goto, we can simplify the flow and make it more language natural by just doing do-while instead. One would hope this is the standard way (or obviously just with a while bucle) that we do wait/wakeup handling in the kernel. The exact same logic is kept, just more indented.
