[ Upstream commit b52be557e24c47286738276121177a41f54e3b83 ]

When __do_semtimedop() goes to sleep because it has to wait for a
semaphore value becoming zero or becoming bigger than some threshold, it
links the on-stack sem_queue to the sem_array, then goes to sleep
without holding a reference on the sem_array.

When __do_semtimedop() comes back out of sleep, one of two things must
happen:

 a) We prove that the on-stack sem_queue has been disconnected from the
    (possibly freed) sem_array, making it safe to return from the stack
    frame that the sem_queue exists in.

 b) We stabilize our reference to the sem_array, lock the sem_array, and
    detach the sem_queue from the sem_array ourselves.

sem_array has RCU lifetime, so for case (b), the reference can be
stabilized inside an RCU read-side critical section by locklessly
checking whether the sem_queue is still connected to the sem_array.

However, the current code does the lockless check on sem_queue before
starting an RCU read-side critical section, so the result of the
lockless check immediately becomes useless.

Fix it by doing rcu_read_lock() before the lockless check.  Now RCU
ensures that if we observe the object being on our queue, the object
can't be freed until rcu_read_unlock().

This bug is only hittable on kernel builds with full preemption support
(either CONFIG_PREEMPT or PREEMPT_DYNAMIC with preempt=full).

<title>ipc: remove memcg accounting for sops objects in do_semtimedop()</title>

commit 6a4746ba06191e23d30230738e94334b26590a8a upstream.

Linus proposes to revert an accounting for sops objects in
do_semtimedop() because it's really just a temporary buffer
for a single semtimedop() system call.

This object can consume up to 2 pages, syscall is sleeping
one, size and duration can be controlled by user, and this
allocation can be repeated by many thread at the same time.

However Shakeel Butt pointed that there are much more popular
objects with the same life time and similar memory
consumption, the accounting of which was decided to be
rejected for performance reasons.

Considering at least 2 pages for task_struct and 2 pages for
the kernel stack, a back of the envelope calculation gives a
footprint amplification of &lt;1.5 so this temporal buffer can be
safely ignored.

The factor would IMO be interesting if it was &gt;&gt; 2 (from the
PoV of excessive (ab)use, fine-grained accounting seems to be
currently unfeasible due to performance impact).

commit 18319498fdd4cdf8c1c2c48cd432863b1f915d6f upstream.

When user creates IPC objects it forces kernel to allocate memory for
these long-living objects.

It makes sense to account them to restrict the host's memory consumption
from inside the memcg-limited container.

This patch enables accounting for IPC shared memory segments, messages
semaphores and semaphore's undo lists.

<id>urn:sha1:4528c0c323085e645b8765913b4a7fd42cf49b65</id>
<content type='text'>
commit a11ddb37bf367e6b5239b95ca759e5389bb46048 upstream.

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-&gt;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(&amp;this-&gt;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-&gt;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.

<title>Revert "ipc,sem: remove uneeded sem_undo_list lock usage in exit_sem()"</title>

<id>urn:sha1:edf28f4061afe4c2d9eb1c3323d90e882c1d6800</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit a97955844807e327df11aa33869009d14d6b7de0.

Commit a97955844807 ("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 &amp;un-&gt;ulp-&gt;lock when it performs
list_del_rcu(&amp;un-&gt;list_proc) but exit_sem() does not (locking was
removed by commit a97955844807 ("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-&gt;list_proc.next to point at B and at the same
time freeary() removes B setting B-&gt;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 (&amp;un-&gt;list_proc ==
&amp;ulp-&gt;list_proc) to be true which is not. Then exit_sem() will check if
B-&gt;semid=-1 which is and will continue looping in for(;;) until the
memory for B is reallocated and the value at B-&gt;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-&gt;ulp-&gt;lock)                 ...
  list_del_rcu(un_A-&gt;list_proc)           list_del_rcu(un_B-&gt;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-&gt;list_proc.next
pointing to the address of B which is already removed.

After reverting commit a97955844807 ("ipc,sem: remove uneeded
sem_undo_list lock usage in exit_sem()") the issue was no longer
reproducible.

- Add smp_store_release() to wake_up_sem_queue_prepare() and
  document why it is needed.

- Read q-&gt;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().

CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST requires list_for_each_entry_rcu() to pass a lockdep
expression if using srcu or locking for protection.  It can only check
regular RCU protection, all other protection needs to be passed as lockdep
expression.

Use kvzalloc() instead of kvmalloc() and memset().

Also, make use of the struct_size() helper instead of the open-coded
version in order to avoid any potential type mistakes.

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
