sys_clone() and sys_unshare() both makes copies of nsproxy and its associated
namespaces. But they have different code paths.
This patch merges all the nsproxy and its associated namespace copy/clone
handling (as much as possible). Posted on container list earlier for
feedback.
- Create a new nsproxy and its associated namespaces and pass it back to
caller to attach it to right process.
- Changed all copy_*_ns() routines to return a new copy of namespace
instead of attaching it to task->nsproxy.
- Moved the CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks out of copy_*_ns() routines.
- Removed unnessary !ns checks from copy_*_ns() and added BUG_ON()
just incase.
- Get rid of all individual unshare_*_ns() routines and make use of
copy_*_ns() instead.

When CONFIG_IPC_NS=n, clone(CLONE_NEWIPC) claims success, but did not actually
clone a new IPC namespace.
Fix this to return -EINVAL so the caller knows his request was denied.

This patch set allows to unshare IPCs and have a private set of IPC objects
(sem, shm, msg) inside namespace. Basically, it is another building block of
containers functionality.
This patch implements core IPC namespace changes:
- ipc_namespace structure
- new config option CONFIG_IPC_NS
- adds CLONE_NEWIPC flag
- unshare support

Patch from Mingming, Rusty, Hugh, Dipankar, me:
- It greatly reduces the lock contention by having one lock per id.
The global spinlock is removed and a spinlock is added in
kern_ipc_perm structure.
- Uses ReadCopyUpdate in grow_ary() for locking-free resizing.
- In the places where ipc_rmid() is called, delay calling ipc_free()
to RCU callbacks. This is to prevent ipc_lock() returning an invalid
pointer after ipc_rmid(). In addition, use the workqueue to enable
RCU freeing vmalloced entries.
Also some other changes:
- Remove redundant ipc_lockall/ipc_unlockall
- Now ipc_unlock() directly takes IPC ID pointer as argument, avoid
extra looking up the array.
The changes are made based on the input from Huge Dickens, Manfred
Spraul and Dipankar Sarma. In addition, Cliff White has run OSDL's
dbt1 test on a 2 way against the earlier version of this patch.
Results shows about 2-6% improvement on the average number of
transactions per second. Here is the summary of his tests:
2.5.42-mm2 2.5.42-mm2-ipclock
-----------------------------
Average over 5 runs 85.0 BT 89.8 BT
Std Deviation 5 runs 7.4 BT 1.0 BT
Average over 4 best 88.15 BT 90.2 BT
Std Deviation 4 best 2.8 BT 0.5 BT
Also, another test today from Bill Hartner:
I tested Mingming's RCU ipc lock patch using a *new* microbenchmark - semopbench.
semopbench was written to test the performance of Mingming's patch.
I also ran a 3 hour stress and it completed successfully.
Explanation of the microbenchmark is below the results.
Here is a link to the microbenchmark source.
http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/linuxperf/semopbench/semopbench.c
SUT : 8-way 700 Mhz PIII
I tested 2.5.44-mm2 and 2.5.44-mm2 + RCU ipc patch
>semopbench -g 64 -s 16 -n 16384 -r > sem.results.out
>readprofile -m /boot/System.map | sort -n +0 -r > sem.profile.out
The metric is seconds / per repetition. Lower is better.
kernel run 1 run 2
seconds seconds
================== ======= =======
2.5.44-mm2 515.1 515.4
2.5.44-mm2+rcu-ipc 46.7 46.7
With Mingming's patch, the test completes 10X faster.

The patch below adds the base set of LSM hooks for System V IPC to the
2.5.41 kernel. These hooks permit a security module to label
semaphore sets, message queues, and shared memory segments and to
perform security checks on these objects that parallel the existing
IPC access checks. Additional LSM hooks for labeling and controlling
individual messages sent on a single message queue and for providing
fine-grained distinctions among IPC operations will be submitted
separately after this base set of LSM IPC hooks has been accepted.
