In order for load/store tearing prevention to work, _all_ accesses to
the variable in question need to be done around READ and WRITE_ONCE()
macros.  Ensure everyone does so for q-&gt;status variable for
semtimedop().

<title>sysvipc/sem: mitigate semnum index against spectre v1</title>

Both smatch and coverity are reporting potential issues with spectre
variant 1 with the 'semnum' index within the sma-&gt;sems array, ie:

  ipc/sem.c:388 sem_lock() warn: potential spectre issue 'sma-&gt;sems'
  ipc/sem.c:641 perform_atomic_semop_slow() warn: potential spectre issue 'sma-&gt;sems'
  ipc/sem.c:721 perform_atomic_semop() warn: potential spectre issue 'sma-&gt;sems'

Avoid any possible speculation by using array_index_nospec() thus
ensuring the semnum value is bounded to [0, sma-&gt;sem_nsems).  With the
exception of sem_lock() all of these are slowpaths.

The kvmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kvmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kvmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kvmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kvmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kvmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kvmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kvmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

<title>y2038: ipc: Enable COMPAT_32BIT_TIME</title>

<content type='text'>
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.

The shmid64_ds/semid64_ds/msqid64_ds data structures have been extended
to contain extra fields for storing the upper bits of the time stamps,
this patch does the other half of the job and and fills the new fields on
32-bit architectures as well as 32-bit tasks running on a 64-bit kernel
in compat mode.

There should be no change for native 64-bit tasks.

In some places, we still used get_seconds() instead of
ktime_get_real_seconds(), and I'm changing the remaining ones now to
all use ktime_get_real_seconds() so we use the full available range for
timestamps instead of overflowing the 'unsigned long' return value in
year 2106 on 32-bit kernels.

<title>ipc/sem: introduce semctl(SEM_STAT_ANY)</title>

<id>a280d6dc77eb6002f269d58cd47c7c7e69b617b6</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a permission discrepancy when consulting shm ipc object
metadata between /proc/sysvipc/sem (0444) and the SEM_STAT semctl
command.  The later does permission checks for the object vs S_IRUGO.
As such there can be cases where EACCESS is returned via syscall but the
info is displayed anyways in the procfs files.

While this might have security implications via info leaking (albeit no
writing to the sma metadata), this behavior goes way back and showing
all the objects regardless of the permissions was most likely an
overlook - so we are stuck with it.  Furthermore, modifying either the
syscall or the procfs file can cause userspace programs to break (ie
ipcs).  Some applications require getting the procfs info (without root
privileges) and can be rather slow in comparison with a syscall -- up to
500x in some reported cases for shm.

This patch introduces a new SEM_STAT_ANY command such that the sem ipc
object permissions are ignored, and only audited instead.  In addition,
I've left the lsm security hook checks in place, as if some policy can
block the call, then the user has no other choice than just parsing the
procfs file.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "There was a lot of work this cycle fixing bugs that were discovered
  after the merge window and getting everything ready where we can
  reasonably support fully unprivileged fuse. The bug fixes you already
  have and much of the unprivileged fuse work is coming in via other
  trees.

  Still left for fully unprivileged fuse is figuring out how to cleanly
  handle .set_acl and .get_acl in the legacy case, and properly handling
  of evm xattrs on unprivileged mounts.

  Included in the tree is a cleanup from Alexely that replaced a linked
  list with a statically allocated fix sized array for the pid caches,
  which simplifies and speeds things up.

  Then there is are some cleanups and fixes for the ipc namespace. The
  motivation was that in reviewing other code it was discovered that
  access ipc objects from different pid namespaces recorded pids in such
  a way that when asked the wrong pids were returned. In the worst case
  there has been a measured 30% performance impact for sysvipc
  semaphores. Other test cases showed no measurable performance impact.
  Manfred Spraul and Davidlohr Bueso who tend to work on sysvipc
  performance both gave the nod that this is good enough.

  Casey Schaufler and James Morris have given their approval to the LSM
  side of the changes.

  I simplified the types and the code dealing with sysvipc to pass just
  kern_ipc_perm for all three types of ipc. Which reduced the header
  dependencies throughout the kernel and simplified the lsm code.

  Which let me work on the pid fixes without having to worry about
  trivial changes causing complete kernel recompiles"

* 'userns-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
  ipc/shm: Fix pid freeing.
  ipc/shm: fix up for struct file no longer being available in shm.h
  ipc/smack: Tidy up from the change in type of the ipc security hooks
  ipc: Directly call the security hook in ipc_ops.associate
  ipc/sem: Fix semctl(..., GETPID, ...) between pid namespaces
  ipc/msg: Fix msgctl(..., IPC_STAT, ...) between pid namespaces
  ipc/shm: Fix shmctl(..., IPC_STAT, ...) between pid namespaces.
  ipc/util: Helpers for making the sysvipc operations pid namespace aware
  ipc: Move IPCMNI from include/ipc.h into ipc/util.h
  msg: Move struct msg_queue into ipc/msg.c
  shm: Move struct shmid_kernel into ipc/shm.c
  sem: Move struct sem and struct sem_array into ipc/sem.c

Provide ksys_semctl() and compat_ksys_semctl() wrappers to avoid in-kernel
calls to these syscalls. The ksys_ prefix denotes that these functions are
meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscalls. In particular, they use
the same calling convention as sys_semctl() and compat_sys_semctl().

This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.
On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined. For details, see
