[ Upstream commit b5f2006144c6ae941726037120fa1001ddede784 ]

Commit cc731525f26a ("signal: Remove kernel interal si_code magic")
changed the value of SI_FROMUSER(SI_MESGQ), this means that mq_notify() no
longer works if the sender doesn't have rights to send a signal.

Change __do_notify() to use do_send_sig_info() instead of kill_pid_info()
to avoid check_kill_permission().

This needs the additional notify.sigev_signo != 0 check, shouldn't we
change do_mq_notify() to deny sigev_signo == 0 ?

Test-case:

	#include &lt;signal.h&gt;
	#include &lt;mqueue.h&gt;
	#include &lt;unistd.h&gt;
	#include &lt;sys/wait.h&gt;
	#include &lt;assert.h&gt;

	static int notified;

	static void sigh(int sig)
	{
		notified = 1;
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		signal(SIGIO, sigh);

		int fd = mq_open("/mq", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0666, NULL);
		assert(fd &gt;= 0);

		struct sigevent se = {
			.sigev_notify	= SIGEV_SIGNAL,
			.sigev_signo	= SIGIO,
		};
		assert(mq_notify(fd, &amp;se) == 0);

		if (!fork()) {
			assert(setuid(1) == 0);
			mq_send(fd, "",1,0);
			return 0;
		}

		wait(NULL);
		mq_unlink("/mq");
		assert(notified);
		return 0;
	}

[manfred@colorfullife.com: 1) Add self_exec_id evaluation so that the implementation matches do_notify_parent 2) use PIDTYPE_TGID everywhere]

[ Upstream commit a318f12ed8843cfac53198390c74a565c632f417 ]

Andreas Christoforou reported:

  UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in ipc/mqueue.c:414:49 signed integer overflow:
  9 * 2305843009213693951 cannot be represented in type 'long int'
  ...
  Call Trace:
    mqueue_evict_inode+0x8e7/0xa10 ipc/mqueue.c:414
    evict+0x472/0x8c0 fs/inode.c:558

    prepare_open ipc/mqueue.c:731 [inline]
    do_mq_open+0x6da/0x8e0 ipc/mqueue.c:771

Which could be triggered by:

        struct mq_attr attr = {
                .mq_flags = 0,
                .mq_maxmsg = 9,
                .mq_msgsize = 0x1fffffffffffffff,
                .mq_curmsgs = 0,
        };

        if (mq_open("/testing", 0x40, 3, &amp;attr) == (mqd_t) -1)
                perror("mq_open");

mqueue_get_inode() was correctly rejecting the giant mq_msgsize, and
preparing to return -EINVAL.  During the cleanup, it calls
mqueue_evict_inode() which performed resource usage tracking math for
updating "user", before checking if there was a valid "user" at all
(which would indicate that the calculations would be sane).  Instead,
delay this check to after seeing a valid "user".

The overflow was real, but the results went unused, so while the flaw is
harmless, it's noisy for kernel fuzzers, so just fix it by moving the
calculation under the non-NULL "user" where it actually gets used.

[ Upstream commit d6a2946a88f524a47cc9b79279667137899db807 ]

msgctl10 of ltp triggers the following lockup When CONFIG_KASAN is
enabled on large memory SMP systems, the pages initialization can take a
long time, if msgctl10 requests a huge block memory, and it will block
rcu scheduler, so release cpu actively.

After adding schedule() in free_msg, free_msg can not be called when
holding spinlock, so adding msg to a tmp list, and free it out of
spinlock

Davidlohr said:
 "So after releasing the lock, the msg rbtree/list is empty and new
  calls will not see those in the newly populated tmp_msg list, and
  therefore they cannot access the delayed msg freeing pointers, which
  is good. Also the fact that the node_cache is now freed before the
  actual messages seems to be harmless as this is wanted for
  msg_insert() avoiding GFP_ATOMIC allocations, and after releasing the
  info-&gt;lock the thing is freed anyway so it should not change things"

 "So after releasing the lock, the msg rbtree/list is empty and new
  calls will not see those in the newly populated tmp_msg list, and
  therefore they cannot access the delayed msg freeing pointers, which
  is good. Also the fact that the node_cache is now freed before the
  actual messages seems to be harmless as this is wanted for
  msg_insert() avoiding GFP_ATOMIC allocations, and after releasing the
  info-&gt;lock the thing is freed anyway so it should not change things"

Three ipc syscalls (mq_timedsend, mq_timedreceive and and semtimedop)
take a timespec argument. After we move 32-bit architectures over to
useing 64-bit time_t based syscalls, we need seperate entry points for
the old 32-bit based interfaces.

This changes the #ifdef guards for the existing 32-bit compat syscalls
to check for CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME instead, which will then be
enabled on all existing 32-bit architectures.

This is a preparatation for changing over __kernel_timespec to 64-bit
times, which involves assigning new system call numbers for mq_timedsend(),
mq_timedreceive() and semtimedop() for compatibility with future y2038
proof user space.

The existing ABIs will remain available through compat code.

This reverts commit 36735a6a2b5e042db1af956ce4bcc13f3ff99e21.

Aleksa Sarai &lt;asarai@suse.de&gt; writes:
&gt; [REGRESSION v4.16-rc6] [PATCH] mqueue: forbid unprivileged user access to internal mount
&gt;
&gt; Felix reported weird behaviour on 4.16.0-rc6 with regards to mqueue[1],
&gt; which was introduced by 36735a6a2b5e ("mqueue: switch to on-demand
&gt; creation of internal mount").
&gt;
&gt; Basically, the reproducer boils down to being able to mount mqueue if
&gt; you create a new user namespace, even if you don't unshare the IPC
&gt; namespace.
&gt;
&gt; Previously this was not possible, and you would get an -EPERM. The mount
&gt; is the *host* mqueue mount, which is being cached and just returned from
&gt; mqueue_mount(). To be honest, I'm not sure if this is safe or not (or if
&gt; it was intentional -- since I'm not familiar with mqueue).
&gt;
&gt; To me it looks like there is a missing permission check. I've included a
&gt; patch below that I've compile-tested, and should block the above case.
&gt; Can someone please tell me if I'm missing something? Is this actually
&gt; safe?
&gt;
&gt; [1]: https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/36674

The issue is a lot deeper than a missing permission check.  sb-&gt;s_user_ns
was is improperly set as well.  So in addition to the filesystem being
mounted when it should not be mounted, so things are not allow that should
be.

We are practically to the release of 4.16 and there is no agreement between
Al Viro and myself on what the code should looks like to fix things properly.
So revert the code to what it was before so that we can take our time
and discuss this properly.

<title>vfs: do bulk POLL* -&gt; EPOLL* replacement</title>

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

<title>ipc/mqueue.c: have RT tasks queue in by priority in wq_add()</title>

Previous behavior added tasks to the work queue using the static_prio
value instead of the dynamic priority value in prio.  This caused RT tasks
to be added to the work queue in a FIFO manner rather than by priority.
Normal tasks were handled by priority.

This fix utilizes the dynamic priority of the task to ensure that both RT
and normal tasks are added to the work queue in priority order.  Utilizing
the dynamic priority (prio) rather than the base priority (normal_prio)
was chosen to ensure that if a task had a boosted priority when it was
added to the work queue, it would be woken sooner to to ensure that it
releases any other locks it may be holding in a more timely manner.  It is
understood that the task could have a lower priority when it wakes than
when it was added to the queue in this (unlikely) case.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
 "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
  the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
  'make -&gt;poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
  variables used to hold the future return value'.

  misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is

  equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are

  the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them

  at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
  architectures"

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
 "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
  the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
  'make -&gt;poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
  variables used to hold the future return value'.
