2017-09-03ipc: Make sys_semtimedop() y2038 safeDeepa Dinamani
struct timespec is not y2038 safe on 32 bit machines. Replace timespec with y2038 safe struct timespec64. Note that the patch only changes the internals without modifying the syscall interface. This will be part of a separate series. Signed-off-by: Deepa Dinamani <deepa.kernel@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2017-08-17ipc: Replace spin_unlock_wait() with lock/unlock pairPaul E. McKenney
There is no agreed-upon definition of spin_unlock_wait()'s semantics, and it appears that all callers could do just as well with a lock/unlock pair. This commit therefore replaces the spin_unlock_wait() call in exit_sem() with spin_lock() followed immediately by spin_unlock(). This should be safe from a performance perspective because exit_sem() is rarely invoked in production. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-08-02ipc: add missing container_of()s for randstructKees Cook
When building with the randstruct gcc plugin, the layout of the IPC structs will be randomized, which requires any sub-structure accesses to use container_of(). The proc display handlers were missing the needed container_of()s since the iterator is passing in the top-level struct kern_ipc_perm. This would lead to crashes when running the "lsipc" program after the system had IPC registered (e.g. after starting up Gnome): general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ...

2017-07-12ipc: merge ipc_rcu and kern_ipc_permManfred Spraul
ipc has two management structures that exist for every id: - struct kern_ipc_perm, it contains e.g. the permissions. - struct ipc_rcu, it contains the rcu head for rcu handling and the refcount. The patch merges both structures. As a bonus, we may save one cacheline, because both structures are cacheline aligned. In addition, it reduces the number of casts, instead most codepaths can use container_of. To simplify code, the ipc_rcu_alloc initializes the allocation to 0.

2017-02-27ipc/sem: add hysteresisManfred Spraul
sysv sem has two lock modes: One with per-semaphore locks, one lock mode with a single global lock for the whole array. When switching from the per-semaphore locks to the global lock, all per-semaphore locks must be scanned for ongoing operations. The patch adds a hysteresis for switching from the global lock to the per semaphore locks. This reduces how often the per-semaphore locks must be scanned. Compared to the initial patch, this is a simplified solution: Setting USE_GLOBAL_LOCK_HYSTERESIS to 1 restores the current behavior. In theory, a workload with exactly 10 simple sops and then one complex op now scales a bit worse, but this is pure theory: If there is concurrency, the it won't be exactly 10:1:10:1:10:1:... If there is no concurrency, then there is no need for scalability.

2017-02-27ipc/sem.c: avoid using spin_unlock_wait()Manfred Spraul
a) The ACQUIRE in spin_lock() applies to the read, not to the store, at least for powerpc. This forces to add a smp_mb() into the fast path. b) The memory barrier provided by spin_unlock_wait() is right now arch dependent. Therefore: Use spin_lock()/spin_unlock() instead of spin_unlock_wait(). Advantage: faster single op semop calls(), observed +8.9% on x86. (the other solution would be arch dependencies in ipc/sem). Disadvantage: slower complex op semop calls, if (and only if) there are no sleeping operations. The next patch adds hysteresis, this further reduces the probability that the slow path is used.

2017-01-10ipc/sem.c: fix incorrect sem_lock pairingManfred Spraul
Based on the syzcaller test case from dvyukov: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/dvyukov/d0e5efefe4d7d6daed829f5c3ca26a40/raw/08d0a261fe3c987bed04fbf267e08ba04bd533ea/gistfile1.txt The slow (i.e.: failure to acquire) syscall exit from semtimedop() incorrectly assumed that the the same lock is acquired as it was at the initial syscall entry. This is wrong: - thread A: single semop semop(), sleeps - thread B: multi semop semop(), sleeps - thread A: woken up by signal/timeout With this sequence, the initial sem_lock() call locks the per-semaphore spinlock, and it is unlocked with sem_unlock(). The call at the syscall return locks the global spinlock. Because locknum is not updated, the following sem_unlock() call unlocks the per-semaphore spinlock, which is actually not locked. The fix is trivial: Use the return value from sem_lock.

2016-12-14ipc/sem: avoid idr tree lookup for interrupted semopDavidlohr Bueso
We can avoid the idr tree lookup (albeit possibly avoiding idr_find_fast()) when being awoken in EINTR, as the semid will not change in this context while blocked. Use the sma pointer directly and take the sem_lock, then re-check for RMID races. We continue to re-check the queue.status with the lock held such that we can detect situations where we where are dealing with a spurious wakeup but another task that holds the sem_lock updated the queue.status while we were spinning for it. Once we take the lock it obviously won't change again. Being the only caller, get rid of sem_obtain_lock() altogether.

2016-12-14ipc/sem: optimize perform_atomic_semop()Davidlohr Bueso
This is the main workhorse that deals with semop user calls such that the waitforzero or semval update operations, on the set, can complete on not as the sma currently stands. Currently, the set is iterated twice (setting semval, then backwards for the sempid value). Slowpaths, and particularly SEM_UNDO calls, must undo any altered sem when it is detected that the caller must block or has errored-out. With larger sets, there can occur situations where this involves a lot of cycles and can obviously be a suboptimal use of cached resources in shared memory. Ie, discarding CPU caches that are also calling semop and have the sembuf cached (and can complete), while the current lock holder doing the semop will block, error, or does a waitforzero operation. This patch proposes still iterating the set twice, but the first scan is read-only, and we perform the actual updates afterward, once we know that the call will succeed. In order to not suffer from the overhead of dealing with sops that act on the same sem_num, such (rare) cases use perform_atomic_semop_slow(), which is exactly what we have now. Duplicates are detected before grabbing sem_lock, and uses simple a 32/64-bit hash array variable to based on the sem_num we are working on. In addition add some comments to when we expect to the caller to block.

2016-12-14ipc/sem: rework task wakeupsDavidlohr Bueso
Our sysv sems have been using the notion of lockless wakeups for a while, ever since commit 0a2b9d4c7967 ("ipc/sem.c: move wake_up_process out of the spinlock section"), in order to reduce the sem_lock hold times. This in-house pending queue can be replaced by wake_q (just like all the rest of ipc now), in that it provides the following advantages: o Simplifies and gets rid of unnecessary code. o We get rid of the IN_WAKEUP complexities. Given that wake_q_add() grabs reference to the task, if awoken due to an unrelated event, between the wake_q_add() and wake_up_q() window, we cannot race with sys_exit and the imminent call to wake_up_process(). o By not spinning IN_WAKEUP, we no longer need to disable preemption. In consequence, the wakeup paths (after schedule(), that is) must acknowledge an external signal/event, as well spurious wakeup occurring during the pending wakeup window. Obviously no changes in semantics that could be visible to the user. The fastpath is _only_ for when we know for sure that we were awoken due to a the waker's successful semop call (queue.status is not -EINTR).

2016-10-11ipc/sem.c: add cond_resched in exit_smeNikolay Borisov
In CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernel a softlockup was observed while the for loop in exit_sem. Apparently it's possible for the loop to take quite a long time and it doesn't have a scheduling point in it. Since the codes is executing under an rcu read section this may also cause rcu stalls, which in turn block synchronize_rcu operations, which more or less de-stabilises the whole system. Fix this by introducing a cond_resched() at the beginning of the loop. So this patch fixes the following: NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#10 stuck for 23s!

2016-10-11ipc/sem.c: fix complex_count vs. simple op raceManfred Spraul
Commit 6d07b68ce16a ("ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock()") introduced a race: sem_lock has a fast path that allows parallel simple operations. There are two reasons why a simple operation cannot run in parallel: - a non-simple operations is ongoing (sma->sem_perm.lock held) - a complex operation is sleeping (sma->complex_count != 0) As both facts are stored independently, a thread can bypass the current checks by sleeping in the right positions. See below for more details (or kernel bugzilla 105651). The patch fixes that by creating one variable (complex_mode) that tracks both reasons why parallel operations are not possible. The patch also updates stale documentation regarding the locking. With regards to stable kernels: The patch is required for all kernels that include the commit 6d07b68ce16a ("ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock()") (3.10?) The alternative is to revert the patch that introduced the race. The patch is safe for backporting, i.e. it makes no assumptions about memory barriers in spin_unlock_wait(). Background: Here is the race of the current implementation: Thread A: (simple op) - does the first "sma->complex_count == 0" test Thread B: (complex op) - does sem_lock(): This includes an array scan. But the scan can't find Thread A, because Thread A does not own sem->lock yet. - the thread does the operation, increases complex_count, drops sem_lock, sleeps Thread A: - spin_lock(&sem->lock), spin_is_locked(sma->sem_perm.lock) - sleeps before the complex_count test Thread C: (complex op) - does sem_lock (no array scan, complex_count==1) - wakes up Thread B. - decrements complex_count Thread A: - does the complex_count test Bug: Now both thread A and thread C operate on the same array, without any synchronization.

2016-03-22ipc/sem: make semctl setting sempid consistentDavidlohr Bueso
As indicated by bug#112271, Linux sets the sempid value upon semctl, and not only for semop calls. However, within semctl we only do this for SETVAL, leaving SETALL without updating the field, and therefore rather inconsistent behavior when compared to other Unices. There is really no documentation regarding this and therefore users should not make assumptions. With this patch, along with updating semctl.2 manpages, this scenario should become less ambiguous As such, set sempid on SETALL cmd. Also update some in-code documentation, specifying where the sempid is set. Passes ltp and custom testcase where a child (fork) does SETALL to the set.

2015-08-14ipc/sem.c: update/correct memory barriersManfred Spraul
sem_lock() did not properly pair memory barriers: !spin_is_locked() and spin_unlock_wait() are both only control barriers. The code needs an acquire barrier, otherwise the cpu might perform read operations before the lock test. As no primitive exists inside <include/spinlock.h> and since it seems noone wants another primitive, the code creates a local primitive within ipc/sem.c. With regards to -stable: The change of sem_wait_array() is a bugfix, the change to sem_lock() is a nop (just a preprocessor redefinition to improve the readability). The bugfix is necessary for all kernels that use sem_wait_array() (i.e.: starting from 3.10).

2015-08-14ipc,sem: fix use after free on IPC_RMID after a task using same semaphore ↵Herton R. Krzesinski
set exits The current semaphore code allows a potential use after free: in exit_sem we may free the task's sem_undo_list while there is still another task looping through the same semaphore set and cleaning the sem_undo list at freeary function (the task called IPC_RMID for the same semaphore set). For example, with a test program [1] running which keeps forking a lot of processes (which then do a semop call with SEM_UNDO flag), and with the parent right after removing the semaphore set with IPC_RMID, and a kernel built with CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG and CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, you can easily see something like the following in the kernel log: Slab corruption (Not tainted): kmalloc-64 start=ffff88003b45c1c0, len=64 000: 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 00 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b 6b kkkkkkkk.kkkkkkk 010: ff ff ff ff 6b 6b 6b 6b ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ....kkkk........

The patch here fixes the race against freeary, by acquiring or waiting on the sem_undo_list lock as necessary (exit_sem can race with freeary, while freeary sets un->semid to -1 and removes the same sem_undo from list_proc or when it removes the last sem_undo).

2014-12-13ipc/sem.c: change memory barrier in sem_lock() to smp_rmb()Manfred Spraul
When I fixed bugs in the sem_lock() logic, I was more conservative than necessary. Therefore it is safe to replace the smp_mb() with smp_rmb(). And: With smp_rmb(), semop() syscalls are up to 10% faster. The race we must protect against is: sem->lock is free sma->complex_count = 0 sma->sem_perm.lock held by thread B thread A: A: spin_lock(&sem->lock) B: sma->complex_count++; (now 1) B: spin_unlock(&sma->sem_perm.lock); A: spin_is_locked(&sma->sem_perm.lock); A: XXXXX memory barrier A: if (sma->complex_count == 0) Thread A must read the increased complex_count value, i.e. the read must not be reordered with the read of sem_perm.lock done by spin_is_locked(). Since it's about ordering of reads, smp_rmb() is sufficient.

The actual Linux implementation for semctl(GETNCNT) and semctl(GETZCNT) always (since 0.99.10) reported a thread as sleeping on all semaphores that are listed in the semop() call. The documented behavior (both in the Linux man page and in the Single Unix Specification) is that a task should be reported on exactly one semaphore: The semaphore that caused the thread to got to sleep. This patch adds a pr_info_once() that is triggered if a thread hits the relevant case. The code triggers slightly too often, otherwise it would be necessary to replicate the old code. As there are no known users of GETNCNT or GETZCNT, this is done to prevent unnecessary bloat. The task that triggered is reported with name (tsk->comm) and pid.

2014-06-06ipc/sem.c: make semctl(,,{GETNCNT,GETZCNT}) standard compliantManfred Spraul
SUSv4 clearly defines how semncnt and semzcnt must be calculated: A task waits on exactly one semaphore: The semaphore from the first operation in the sop array that cannot proceed. The Linux implementation never followed the standard, it tried to count all semaphores that might be the reason why a task sleeps. This patch fixes that. Note: a) The implementation assumes that GETNCNT and GETZCNT are rare operations, therefore the code counts them only on demand. (If they wouldn't be rare, then the non-compliance would have been found earlier) b) compared to the initial version of the patch, the BUG_ONs were removed and it was clarified that the new behavior conforms to SUS. Back-compatibility concerns: Manfred: : - there is no application in Fedora that uses GETNCNT or GETZCNT. : : - application that use only single-sop semop() are also safe, the : difference only affects complex apps. : : - portable application are also safe, the new behavior is standard : compliant. : : But that's it. The old behavior existed in Linux from 0.99.something : until now. Michael: : * These operations seem to be very little used. Grepping the public : source that is contained Fedora 20 source DVD, there appear to be no : uses. Of course, this says nothing about uses in private / : non-mainstream FOSS code, but it seems likely that the same pattern : is followed there. : : * The existing behavior is hard enough to understand that I suspect : that no one understood it well enough to rely on it anyway : (especially as that behavior contradicted both man page and POSIX). : : So, there's a chance of breakage, but I estimate that it's minute.

2014-06-06ipc/sem.c: change perform_atomic_semop parametersManfred Spraul
Right now, perform_atomic_semop gets the content of sem_queue as individual fields. Changes that, instead pass a pointer to sem_queue. This is a preparation for the next patch: it uses sem_queue to store the reason why a task must sleep.

2014-06-06ipc/sem.c: remove code duplicationManfred Spraul
count_semzcnt and count_semncnt are more of less identical. The patch creates a single function that either counts the number of tasks waiting for zero or waiting due to a decrease operation. Compared to the initial version, the BUG_ONs were removed.

2014-06-06ipc/sem.c: bugfix for semctl(,,GETZCNT)Manfred Spraul
GETZCNT is supposed to return the number of threads that wait until a semaphore value becomes 0. The current implementation overlooks complex operations that contain both wait-for-zero operation and operations that alter at least one semaphore. The patch fixes that. It's intentionally copy&paste, this will be cleaned up in the next patch.

There is no need to recreate the very same ipc_ops structure on every kernel entry for msgget/semget/shmget. Just declare it static and be done with it. While at it, constify it as we don't modify the structure at runtime. Found in the PaX patch, written by the PaX Team.
