Pull misc fixes from Christian Brauner:
"This contains several fixes which felt worth being combined into a
single branch:
- Use put_nsproxy() instead of open-coding it switch_task_namespaces()
- Kirill's work to unify lifecycle management for all namespaces. The
lifetime counters are used identically for all namespaces types.
Namespaces may of course have additional unrelated counters and
these are not altered. This work allows us to unify the type of the
counters and reduces maintenance cost by moving the counter in one
place and indicating that basic lifetime management is identical
for all namespaces.
- Peilin's fix adding three byte padding to Dmitry's
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO uapi struct to prevent an info leak.
- Two smal patches to convert from the /* fall through */ comment
annotation to the fallthrough keyword annotation which I had taken
into my branch and into -next before df561f6688 ("treewide: Use
fallthrough pseudo-keyword") made it upstream which fixed this
tree-wide.
Since I didn't want to invalidate all testing for other commits I
didn't rebase and kept them"
* tag 'fixes-v5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux:

ptrace: Prevent kernel-infoleak in ptrace_get_syscall_info()
Switch over ipc namespaces to use the newly introduced common lifetime
counter.
Currently every namespace type has its own lifetime counter which is stored
in the specific namespace struct. The lifetime counters are used
identically for all namespaces types. Namespaces may of course have
additional unrelated counters and these are not altered.
This introduces a common lifetime counter into struct ns_common. The
ns_common struct encompasses information that all namespaces share. That
should include the lifetime counter since its common for all of them.
It also allows us to unify the type of the counters across all namespaces.
Most of them use refcount_t but one uses atomic_t and at least one uses
kref. Especially the last one doesn't make much sense since it's just a
wrapper around refcount_t since 2016 and actually complicates cleanup
operations by having to use container_of() to cast the correct namespace
struct out of struct ns_common.
Having the lifetime counter for the namespaces in one place reduces
maintenance cost. Not just because after switching all namespaces over we
will have removed more code than we added but also because the logic is
more easily understandable and we indicate to the user that the basic
lifetime requirements for all namespaces are currently identical.

The current split between do_mmap() and do_mmap_pgoff() was introduced in
commit 1fcfd8db7f ("mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to
do_mmap_pgoff()") to support MPX.
The wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff() always passed 0 as the value of the
vm_flags argument to do_mmap(). However, MPX support has subsequently
been removed from the kernel and there were no more direct callers of
do_mmap(); all calls were going via do_mmap_pgoff().
Simplify the code by removing do_mmap_pgoff() and changing all callers to
directly call do_mmap(), which now no longer takes a vm_flags argument.

Merge tag 'threads-v5.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull thread updates from Christian Brauner:
"We have been discussing using pidfds to attach to namespaces for quite
a while and the patches have in one form or another already existed
for about a year. But I wanted to wait to see how the general api
would be received and adopted.
This contains the changes to make it possible to use pidfds to attach
to the namespaces of a process, i.e. they can be passed as the first
argument to the setns() syscall.
When only a single namespace type is specified the semantics are
equivalent to passing an nsfd. That means setns(nsfd, CLONE_NEWNET)
equals setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWNET).
However, when a pidfd is passed, multiple namespace flags can be
specified in the second setns() argument and setns() will attach the
caller to all the specified namespaces all at once or to none of them.
Specifying 0 is not valid together with a pidfd. Here are just two
obvious examples:
setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWPID | CLONE_NEWNS | CLONE_NEWNET);
setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWUSER);
Allowing to also attach subsets of namespaces supports various
use-cases where callers setns to a subset of namespaces to retain
privilege, perform an action and then re-attach another subset of
namespaces.
Apart from significantly reducing the number of syscalls needed to
attach to all currently supported namespaces (eight "open+setns"
sequences vs just a single "setns()"), this also allows atomic setns
to a set of namespaces, i.e. either attaching to all namespaces
succeeds or we fail without having changed anything.
This is centered around a new internal struct nsset which holds all
information necessary for a task to switch to a new set of namespaces
atomically. Fwiw, with this change a pidfd becomes the only token
needed to interact with a container. I'm expecting this to be
picked-up by util-linux for nsenter rather soon.
Associated with this change is a shiny new test-suite dedicated to
setns() (for pidfds and nsfds alike)"

Add a simple struct nsset. It holds all necessary pieces to switch to a new
set of namespaces without leaving a task in a half-switched state which we
will make use of in the next patch. This patch switches the existing setns
logic over without causing a change in setns() behavior. This brings
setns() closer to how unshare() works(). The prepare_ns() function is
responsible to prepare all necessary information. This has two reasons.
First it minimizes dependencies between individual namespaces, i.e. all
install handler can expect that all fields are properly initialized
independent in what order they are called in. Second, this makes the code
easier to maintain and easier to follow if it needs to be changed.
The prepare_ns() helper will only be switched over to use a flags argument
in the next patch. Here it will still use nstype as a simple integer
argument which was argued would be clearer. I'm not particularly
opinionated about this if it really helps or not. The struct nsset itself
already contains the flags field since its name already indicates that it
can contain information required by different namespaces. None of this
should have functional consequences.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and
from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are
always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.
As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which
could not fly with VFS "struct file_operations"...
Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close
reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens
if module is getting removed. Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never
disappear simply do not need such protection.
Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such

This reverts commit a979558448.
Commit a979558448 ("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 &un->ulp->lock when it performs
list_del_rcu(&un->list_proc) but exit_sem() does not (locking was
removed by commit a979558448 ("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->list_proc.next to point at B and at the same
time freeary() removes B setting B->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 (&un->list_proc ==
&ulp->list_proc) to be true which is not. Then exit_sem() will check if
B->semid=-1 which is and will continue looping in for(;;) until the
memory for B is reallocated and the value at B->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->ulp->lock) ...
list_del_rcu(un_A->list_proc) list_del_rcu(un_B->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->list_proc.next
pointing to the address of B which is already removed.
After reverting commit a979558448 ("ipc,sem: remove uneeded
sem_undo_list lock usage in exit_sem()") the issue was no longer
reproducible.

Transfer findings from ipc/mqueue.c:
- A control barrier was missing for the lockless receive case So in
theory, not yet initialized data may have been copied to user space -
obviously only for architectures where control barriers are not NOP.
- use smp_store_release(). In theory, the refount may have been
decreased to 0 already when wake_q_add() tries to get a reference.

Update and document memory barriers for mqueue.c:
- ewp->state is read without any locks, thus READ_ONCE is required.
- add smp_aquire__after_ctrl_dep() after the READ_ONCE, we need
acquire semantics if the value is STATE_READY.
- use wake_q_add_safe()
- document why __set_current_state() may be used:
Reading task->state cannot happen before the wake_q_add() call,
which happens while holding info->lock. Thus the spin_unlock()
is the RELEASE, and the spin_lock() is the ACQUIRE.
For completeness: there is also a 3 CPU scenario, if the to be woken
up task is already on another wake_q.
Then:
- CPU1: spin_unlock() of the task that goes to sleep is the RELEASE
- CPU2: the spin_lock() of the waker is the ACQUIRE
- CPU2: smp_mb__before_atomic inside wake_q_add() is the RELEASE
- CPU3: smp_mb__after_spinlock() inside try_to_wake_up() is the ACQUIRE

Matt bisected a sparc64 specific issue with semctl, shmctl and msgctl
to a commit from my y2038 series in linux-5.1, as I missed the custom
sys_ipc() wrapper that sparc64 uses in place of the generic version that
I patched.
The problem is that the sys_{sem,shm,msg}ctl() functions in the kernel
now do not allow being called with the IPC_64 flag any more, resulting
in a -EINVAL error when they don't recognize the command.
Instead, the correct way to do this now is to call the internal
ksys_old_{sem,shm,msg}ctl() functions to select the API version.
As we generally move towards these functions anyway, change all of
sparc_ipc() to consistently use those in place of the sys_*() versions,
and move the required ksys_*() declarations into linux/syscalls.h
The IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SYSVIPC) check is required to avoid link
errors when ipc is disabled.

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.
On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.
The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:
$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
248
Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

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.

For ipcmni_extend mode, the sequence number space is only 7 bits. So
the chance of id reuse is relatively high compared with the non-extended
mode.
To alleviate this id reuse problem, this patch enables cyclic allocation
for the index to the radix tree (idx). The disadvantage is that this
can cause a slight slow-down of the fast path, as the radix tree could
be higher than necessary.
To limit the radix tree height, I have chosen the following limits:
1) The cycling is done over in_use*1.5.
2) At least, the cycling is done over
"normal" ipcnmi mode: RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE elements
"ipcmni_extended": 4096 elements
Result:
- for normal mode:
No change for <= 42 active ipc elements. With more than 42
active ipc elements, a 2nd level would be added to the radix
tree.
Without cyclic allocation, a 2nd level would be added only with
more than 63 active elements.
- for extended mode:
Cycling creates always at least a 2-level radix tree.
With more than 2730 active objects, a 3rd level would be
added, instead of > 4095 active objects until the 3rd level
is added without cyclic allocation.
For a 2-level radix tree compared to a 1-level radix tree, I have
observed < 1% performance impact.
Notes:
1) Normal "x=semget();y=semget();" is unaffected: Then the idx
is e.g. a and a+1, regardless if idr_alloc() or idr_alloc_cyclic()
is used.
2) The -1% happens in a microbenchmark after this situation:
x=semget();
for(i=0;i<4000;i++) {t=semget();semctl(t,0,IPC_RMID);}
y=semget();
Now perform semget calls on x and y that do not sleep.
3) The worst-case reuse cycle time is unfortunately unaffected:
If you have 2^24-1 ipc objects allocated, and get/remove the last
possible element in a loop, then the id is reused after 128
get/remove pairs.
Performance check:
A microbenchmark that performes no-op semop() randomly on two IDs,
with only these two IDs allocated.
The IDs were set using /proc/sys/kernel/sem_next_id.
The test was run 5 times, averages are shown.
1 & 2: Base (6.22 seconds for 10.000.000 semops)
1 & 40: -0.2%
1 & 3348: - 0.8%
1 & 27348: - 1.6%
1 & 15777204: - 3.2%
Or: ~12.6 cpu cycles per additional radix tree level.
The cpu is an Intel I3-5010U. ~1300 cpu cycles/syscall is slower
than what I remember (spectre impact?).
V2 of the patch:
- use "min" and "max"
- use RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE * RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE instead of
(2<<12).

Rewrite, based on the patch from Waiman Long:
The mixing in of a sequence number into the IPC IDs is probably to avoid
ID reuse in userspace as much as possible. With ipcmni_extend mode, the
number of usable sequence numbers is greatly reduced leading to higher
chance of ID reuse.
To address this issue, we need to conserve the sequence number space as
much as possible. Right now, the sequence number is incremented for
every new ID created. In reality, we only need to increment the
sequence number when new allocated ID is not greater than the last one
allocated. It is in such case that the new ID may collide with an
existing one. This is being done irrespective of the ipcmni mode.
In order to avoid any races, the index is first allocated and then the
pointer is replaced.
Changes compared to the initial patch:
- Handle failures from idr_alloc().
- Avoid that concurrent operations can see the wrong sequence number.
(This is achieved by using idr_replace()).
- IPCMNI_SEQ_SHIFT is not a constant, thus renamed to
ipcmni_seq_shift().
- IPCMNI_SEQ_MAX is not a constant, thus renamed to ipcmni_seq_max().

The maximum number of unique System V IPC identifiers was limited to
32k. That limit should be big enough for most use cases.
However, there are some users out there requesting for more, especially
those that are migrating from Solaris which uses 24 bits for unique
identifiers. To satisfy the need of those users, a new boot time kernel
option "ipcmni_extend" is added to extend the IPCMNI value to 16M. This
is a 512X increase which should be big enough for users out there that
need a large number of unique IPC identifier.
The use of this new option will change the pattern of the IPC
identifiers returned by functions like shmget(2). An application that
depends on such pattern may not work properly. So it should only be
used if the users really need more than 32k of unique IPC numbers.
This new option does have the side effect of reducing the maximum number
of unique sequence numbers from 64k down to 128. So it is a trade-off.
The computation of a new IPC id is not done in the performance critical
path. So a little bit of additional overhead shouldn't have any real
performance impact.

Our msg priorities became an rbtree as of d6629859b3 ("ipc/mqueue:
improve performance of send/recv"). However, consuming a msg in
msg_get() remains logarithmic (still being better than the case before
of course). By applying well known techniques to cache pointers we can
have the node with the highest priority in O(1), which is specially nice
for the rt cases. Furthermore, some callers can call msg_get() in a
loop.
A new msg_tree_erase() helper is also added to encapsulate the tree
removal and node_cache game. Passes ltp mq testcases.

We already store the current task fo the new waiter before calling
wq_sleep() in both send and recv paths. Trivially remove the redundant
assignment.
