ipc: set msg back to -EAGAIN if copy wasn't performed

2013-04-02T17:09:01Z

Make sure that msg pointer is set back to error value in case of MSG_COPY flag is set and desired message to copy wasn't found. This garantees that msg is either a error pointer or a copy address. Otherwise the last message in queue will be freed without unlinking from the queue (which leads to memory corruption) and the dummy allocated copy won't be released.

ipc: don't allocate a copy larger than max

2013-03-08T23:05:33Z

When MSG_COPY is set, a duplicate message must be allocated for the copy before locking the queue. However, the copy could not be larger than was sent which is limited to msg_ctlmax.

ipc: simplify message copying

2013-01-05T00:11:46Z

Remove the redundant and confusing fill_copy(). Also add copy_msg() check for error. In this case exit from the function have to be done instead of break, because further code interprets any error as EAGAIN. Also define copy_msg() for the case when CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is disabled. Signed-off-by: Stanislav Kinsbursky Cc: "Eric W.

ipc: convert prepare_copy() from macro to function

2013-01-05T00:11:46Z

ipc: simplify free_copy() call

2013-01-05T00:11:45Z

Passing and checking of msgflg to free_copy() is redundant. This patch sets copy to NULL on declaration instead and checks for non-NULL in free_copy(). Note: in case of copy allocation failure, error is returned immediately. So no need to check for IS_ERR() in free_copy(). Signed-off-by: Stanislav Kinsbursky Cc: "Eric W.

ipc: introduce message queue copy feature

2013-01-05T00:11:45Z

This patch is required for checkpoint/restore in userspace. c/r requires some way to get all pending IPC messages without deleting them from the queue (checkpoint can fail and in this case tasks will be resumed, so queue have to be valid). To achive this, new operation flag MSG_COPY for sys_msgrcv() system call was introduced. If this flag was specified, then mtype is interpreted as number of the message to copy. If MSG_COPY is set, then kernel will allocate dummy message with passed size, and then use new copy_msg() helper function to copy desired message (instead of unlinking it from the queue). Notes: 1) Return -ENOSYS if MSG_COPY is specified, but CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is not set. Signed-off-by: Stanislav Kinsbursky Cc: Serge Hallyn Cc: "Eric W.

ipc: message queue receive cleanup

Move all message related manipulation into one function msg_fill(). Actually, two functions because of the compat one.

userns: Convert ipc to use kuid and kgid where appropriate

2012-09-07T05:17:20Z

- Store the ipc owner and creator with a kuid - Store the ipc group and the crators group with a kgid. - Add error handling to ipc_update_perms, allowing it to fail if the uids and gids can not be converted to kuids or kgids. - Modify the proc files to display the ipc creator and owner in the user namespace of the opener of the proc file.
