Commit 054aa8d439b9 ("fget: check that the fd still exists after getting
a ref to it") fixed a race with getting a reference to a file just as it
was being closed.  It was a fairly minimal patch, and I didn't think
re-checking the file pointer lookup would be a measurable overhead,
since it was all right there and cached.

But I was wrong, as pointed out by the kernel test robot.

The 'poll2' case of the will-it-scale.per_thread_ops benchmark regressed
quite noticeably.  Admittedly it seems to be a very artificial test:
doing "poll()" system calls on regular files in a very tight loop in
multiple threads.

That means that basically all the time is spent just looking up file
descriptors without ever doing anything useful with them (not that doing
'poll()' on a regular file is useful to begin with).  And as a result it
shows the extra "re-check fd" cost as a sore thumb.

Happily, the regression is fixable by just writing the code to loook up
the fd to be better and clearer.  There's still a cost to verify the
file pointer, but now it's basically in the noise even for that
benchmark that does nothing else - and the code is more understandable
and has better comments too.

[ Side note: this patch is also a classic case of one that looks very
  messy with the default greedy Myers diff - it's much more legible with
  either the patience of histogram diff algorithm ]

Jann Horn points out that there is another possible race wrt Unix domain
socket garbage collection, somewhat reminiscent of the one fixed in
commit cbcf01128d0a ("af_unix: fix garbage collect vs MSG_PEEK").

See the extended comment about the garbage collection requirements added
to unix_peek_fds() by that commit for details.

The race comes from how we can locklessly look up a file descriptor just
as it is in the process of being closed, and with the right artificial
timing (Jann added a few strategic 'mdelay(500)' calls to do that), the
Unix domain socket garbage collector could see the reference count
decrement of the close() happen before fget() took its reference to the
file and the file was attached onto a new file descriptor.

This is all (intentionally) correct on the 'struct file *' side, with
RCU lookups and lockless reference counting very much part of the
design.  Getting that reference count out of order isn't a problem per
se.

But the garbage collector can get confused by seeing this situation of
having seen a file not having any remaining external references and then
seeing it being attached to an fd.

In commit cbcf01128d0a ("af_unix: fix garbage collect vs MSG_PEEK") the
fix was to serialize the file descriptor install with the garbage
collector by taking and releasing the unix_gc_lock.

That's not really an option here, but since this all happens when we are
in the process of looking up a file descriptor, we can instead simply
just re-check that the file hasn't been closed in the meantime, and just
re-do the lookup if we raced with a concurrent close() of the same file
descriptor.

Pull close_range() cleanup from Christian Brauner:
 "This is a cleanup for close_range() which was sent as part of a bugfix
  we did some time ago in commit 9b5b872215fe ("file: fix close_range()
  for unshare+cloexec").

  We used to share more code between some helpers for close_range()
  which made retrieving the maximum number of open fds before calling
  into the helpers sensible. But with the introduction of
  CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC and the need to retrieve the number of maximum fds
  once more for CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC that stopped making sense. So the
  code was in a dumb in-limbo state.

  Fix this by simplifying the code a bit.

  The original idea was to only fix the bug itself and make backporting
  easy. And since the cleanup wasn't very pressing I left it in
  linux-next for a very long time. I didn't pull the patches from the
  list again back then which is why they don't have lore-links. So I'm
  listing them below explicitly"

it out.  Also remove the "Bump the sock usage counts" comment from
both copies, as that is now what __receive_sock actually does.

anymore now that CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC exists and we need to retake the

syzbot reported a bug when putting the last reference to a tasks file
descriptor table. Debugging this showed we didn't recalculate the
current maximum fd number for CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE | CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC
after we unshared the file descriptors table. So max_fd could exceed the
current fdtable maximum causing us to set excessive bits. As a concrete
example, let's say the user requested everything from fd 4 to ~0UL to be
closed and their current fdtable size is 256 with their highest open fd
being 4. With CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE the caller will end up with a new
fdtable which has room for 64 file descriptors since that is the lowest
fdtable size we accept. But now max_fd will still point to 255 and needs
to be adjusted. Fix this by retrieving the correct maximum fd value in
__range_cloexec().

syzbot reported a bug when putting the last reference to a tasks file
descriptor table. Debugging this showed we didn't recalculate the
current maximum fd number for CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE | CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC
after we unshared the file descriptors table. So max_fd could exceed the
current fdtable maximum causing us to set excessive bits. As a concrete
example, let's say the user requested everything from fd 4 to ~0UL to be
closed and their current fdtable size is 256 with their highest open fd
being 4. With CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE the caller will end up with a new
fdtable which has room for 64 file descriptors since that is the lowest
fdtable size we accept. But now max_fd will still point to 255 and needs
to be adjusted. Fix this by retrieving the correct maximum fd value in
__range_cloexec().

Let pick_file() report back that the fd it was passed exceeded the
maximum fd in that fdtable. This allows us to simplify the caller of
this helper because it doesn't need to care anymore whether the passed
in max_fd is excessive. It can rely on pick_file() telling it that it's
past the last valid fd.
