Pull ipc sysctl namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This updates the ipc sysctls so that they are fundamentally per ipc
namespace. Previously these sysctls depended upon a hack to simulate
being per ipc namespace by looking up the ipc namespace in read or
write. With this set of changes the ipc sysctls are registered per ipc
namespace and open looks up the ipc namespace.
Not only does this series of changes ensure the traditional binding at
open time happens, but it sets a foundation for being able to relax
the permission checks to allow a user namspace root to change the ipc
sysctls for an ipc namespace that the user namespace root requires. To
do this requires the ipc namespace to be known at open time"

ipc: Remove extra braces
ipc: Check permissions for checkpoint_restart sysctls at open time

ipc: Store ipc sysctls in the ipc namespace
ipc: Store mqueue sysctls in the ipc namespace
When running the stress-ng clone benchmark with multiple testing threads,
it was found that there were significant spinlock contention in sget_fc().
The contended spinlock was the sb_lock. It is under heavy contention
because the following code in the critcal section of sget_fc():
hlist_for_each_entry(old, &fc->fs_type->fs_supers, s_instances) {
if (test(old, fc))
goto share_extant_sb;
}
After testing with added instrumentation code, it was found that the
benchmark could generate thousands of ipc namespaces with the
corresponding number of entries in the mqueue's fs_supers list where the
namespaces are the key for the search. This leads to excessive time in
scanning the list for a match.
Looking back at the mqueue calling sequence leading to sget_fc():
mq_init_ns()
=> mq_create_mount()
=> fc_mount()
=> vfs_get_tree()
=> mqueue_get_tree()
=> get_tree_keyed()
=> vfs_get_super()
=> sget_fc()
Currently, mq_init_ns() is the only mqueue function that will indirectly
call mqueue_get_tree() with a newly allocated ipc namespace as the key for
searching. As a result, there will never be a match with the exising ipc
namespaces stored in the mqueue's fs_supers list.
So using get_tree_keyed() to do an existing ipc namespace search is just a
waste of time. Instead, we could use get_tree_nodev() to eliminate the
useless search. By doing so, we can greatly reduce the sb_lock hold time
and avoid the spinlock contention problem in case a large number of ipc
namespaces are present.
Of course, if the code is modified in the future to allow
mqueue_get_tree() to be called with an existing ipc namespace instead of a
new one, we will have to use get_tree_keyed() in this case.
The following stress-ng clone benchmark command was run on a 2-socket
48-core Intel system:
./stress-ng --clone 32 --verbose --oomable --metrics-brief -t 20
The "bogo ops/s" increased from 5948.45 before patch to 9137.06 after
patch. This is an increase of 54% in performance.

Right now, the mqueue sysctls take ipc namespaces into account in a
rather hacky way. This works in most cases, but does not respect the
user namespace.
Within the user namespace, the user cannot change the /proc/sys/fs/mqueue/*
parametres. This poses a problem in the rootless containers.
To solve this I changed the implementation of the mqueue sysctls just
like some other sysctls.
So far, the changes do not provide additional access to files. This will
be done in a future patch.
v3:
* Don't implemenet set_permissions to keep the current behavior.
v2:
* Fixed compilation problem if CONFIG_POSIX_MQUEUE_SYSCTL is not
specified.

Currently, the exit_shm() function not designed to work properly when
task->sysvshm.shm_clist holds shm objects from different IPC namespaces.
This is a real pain when sysctl kernel.shm_rmid_forced = 1, because it
leads to use-after-free (reproducer exists).
This is an attempt to fix the problem by extending exit_shm mechanism to
handle shm's destroy from several IPC ns'es.
To achieve that we do several things:
1. add a namespace (non-refcounted) pointer to the struct shmid_kernel
2. during new shm object creation (newseg()/shmget syscall) we
initialize this pointer by current task IPC ns
3. exit_shm() fully reworked such that it traverses over all shp's in
task->sysvshm.shm_clist and gets IPC namespace not from current task
as it was before but from shp's object itself, then call
shm_destroy(shp, ns).
Note: We need to be really careful here, because as it was said before
(1), our pointer to IPC ns non-refcnt'ed. To be on the safe side we
using special helper get_ipc_ns_not_zero() which allows to get IPC ns
refcounter only if IPC ns not in the "state of destruction".
Q/A
Q: Why can we access shp->ns memory using non-refcounted pointer?
A: Because shp object lifetime is always shorther than IPC namespace
lifetime, so, if we get shp object from the task->sysvshm.shm_clist
while holding task_lock(task) nobody can steal our namespace.
Q: Does this patch change semantics of unshare/setns/clone syscalls?
A: No. It's just fixes non-covered case when process may leave IPC
namespace without getting task->sysvshm.shm_clist list cleaned up.

Patch series "shm: shm_rmid_forced feature fixes".
Some time ago I met kernel crash after CRIU restore procedure,
fortunately, it was CRIU restore, so, I had dump files and could do
restore many times and crash reproduced easily. After some
investigation I've constructed the minimal reproducer. It was found
that it's use-after-free and it happens only if sysctl
kernel.shm_rmid_forced = 1.
The key of the problem is that the exit_shm() function not handles shp's
object destroy when task->sysvshm.shm_clist contains items from
different IPC namespaces. In most cases this list will contain only
items from one IPC namespace.
How can this list contain object from different namespaces? The
exit_shm() function is designed to clean up this list always when
process leaves IPC namespace. But we made a mistake a long time ago and
did not add a exit_shm() call into the setns() syscall procedures.
The first idea was just to add this call to setns() syscall but it
obviously changes semantics of setns() syscall and that's
userspace-visible change. So, I gave up on this idea.
The first real attempt to address the issue was just to omit forced
destroy if we meet shp object not from current task IPC namespace [1].
But that was not the best idea because task->sysvshm.shm_clist was
protected by rwsem which belongs to current task IPC namespace. It
means that list corruption may occur.
Second approach is just extend exit_shm() to properly handle shp's from
different IPC namespaces [2]. This is really non-trivial thing, I've
put a lot of effort into that but not believed that it's possible to
make it fully safe, clean and clear.
Thanks to the efforts of Manfred Spraul working an elegant solution was
designed. Thanks a lot, Manfred!
Eric also suggested the way to address the issue in ("[RFC][PATCH] shm:
In shm_exit destroy all created and never attached segments") Eric's
idea was to maintain a list of shm_clists one per IPC namespace, use
lock-less lists. But there is some extra memory consumption-related
concerns.
An alternative solution which was suggested by me was implemented in
("shm: reset shm_clist on setns but omit forced shm destroy"). The idea
is pretty simple, we add exit_shm() syscall to setns() but DO NOT
destroy shm segments even if sysctl kernel.shm_rmid_forced = 1, we just
clean up the task->sysvshm.shm_clist list.
This chages semantics of setns() syscall a little bit but in comparision
to the "naive" solution when we just add exit_shm() without any special
exclusions this looks like a safer option.

This patch (of 2):
Let's produce a warning if we trying to remove non-existing IPC object
from IPC namespace kht/idr structures.
This allows us to catch possible bugs when the ipc_rmid() function was
called with inconsistent struct ipc_ids*, struct kern_ipc_perm*
arguments.

This commit removes the requirement to be root to modify sem_next_id,
msg_next_id and shm_next_id and checks checkpoint_restore_ns_capable
instead.
Since those files are specific to the IPC namespace, there is no reason
they should require root privileges. This is similar to ns_last_pid,
which also only checks checkpoint_restore_ns_capable.

Linus proposes to revert an accounting for sops objects in
do_semtimedop() because it's really just a temporary buffer
for a single semtimedop() system call.
This object can consume up to 2 pages, syscall is sleeping
one, size and duration can be controlled by user, and this
allocation can be repeated by many thread at the same time.
However Shakeel Butt pointed that there are much more popular
objects with the same life time and similar memory
consumption, the accounting of which was decided to be
rejected for performance reasons.
Considering at least 2 pages for task_struct and 2 pages for
the kernel stack, a back of the envelope calculation gives a
footprint amplification of <1.5 so this temporal buffer can be
safely ignored.
The factor would IMO be interesting if it was >> 2 (from the
PoV of excessive (ab)use, fine-grained accounting seems to be
currently unfeasible due to performance impact).

sysvipc_find_ipc() was left with a costly way to check if the offset
position fed to it is bigger than the total number of IPC IDs in use. So
much so that the time it takes to iterate over /proc/sysvipc/* files grows
exponentially for a custom benchmark that creates "N" SYSV shm segments
and then times the read of /proc/sysvipc/shm (milliseconds):
12 msecs to read 1024 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
18 msecs to read 2048 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
65 msecs to read 4096 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
325 msecs to read 8192 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
1303 msecs to read 16384 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
5182 msecs to read 32768 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
The root problem lies with the loop that computes the total amount of ids
in use to check if the "pos" feeded to sysvipc_find_ipc() grew bigger than
"ids->in_use". That is a quite inneficient way to get to the maximum
index in the id lookup table, specially when that value is already
provided by struct ipc_ids.max_idx.
This patch follows up on the optimization introduced via commit
15df03c879 ("sysvipc: make get_maxid O(1) again") and gets rid of the
aforementioned costly loop replacing it by a simpler checkpoint based on
ipc_get_maxidx() returned value, which allows for a smooth linear increase
in time complexity for the same custom benchmark:
2 msecs to read 1024 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
2 msecs to read 2048 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
4 msecs to read 4096 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
9 msecs to read 8192 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
19 msecs to read 16384 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
39 msecs to read 32768 segs from /proc/sysvipc/shm
