The varable names got a mess, thus standardize them again:

id: user space id. Called semid, shmid, msgid if the type is known.
    Most functions use "id" already.
idx: "index" for the idr lookup
    Right now, some functions use lid, ipc_addid() already uses idx as
    the variable name.
seq: sequence number, to avoid quick collisions of the user space id
key: user space key, used for the rhash tree

Now that we know that rhashtable_init() will not fail, we can get rid of a
lot of the unnecessary cleanup paths when the call errored out.

<title>ipc: rename ipcctl_pre_down_nolock()</title>

Both the comment and the name of ipcctl_pre_down_nolock() are misleading:
The function must be called while holdling the rw semaphore.

Therefore the patch renames the function to ipcctl_obtain_check(): This
name matches the other names used in util.c:

- "obtain" function look up a pointer in the idr, without
  acquiring the object lock.
- The caller is responsible for locking.
- _check means that the sequence number is checked.

<title>ipc/util.c: use ipc_rcu_putref() for failues in ipc_addid()</title>

ipc_addid() is impossible to use:
- for certain failures, the caller must not use ipc_rcu_putref(),
  because the reference counter is not yet initialized.
- for other failures, the caller must use ipc_rcu_putref(),
  because parallel operations could be ongoing already.

The patch cleans that up, by initializing the refcount early, and by
modifying all callers.

The issues is related to the finding of
syzbot+2827ef6b3385deb07eaf@syzkaller.appspotmail.com: syzbot found an
issue with reading kern_ipc_perm.seq, here both read and write to already
released memory could happen.

ipc_addid() initializes kern_ipc_perm.id after having called
ipc_idr_alloc().

Thus a parallel semctl() or msgctl() that uses e.g.  MSG_STAT may use this
unitialized value as the return code.

The patch moves all accesses to kern_ipc_perm.id under the spin_lock().

The virtio_net conflict was an overlap of a fix of statistics counter,

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()

Due to the use of rhashtables in net namespaces,
rhashtable.h is included in lots of the kernel,
so a small changes can required a large recompilation.
This makes development painful.

This patch splits out rhashtable-types.h which just includes
the major type declarations, and does not include (non-trivial)
inline code.  rhashtable.h is no longer included by anything
in the include/ directory.
Common include files only include rhashtable-types.h so a large
recompilation is only triggered when that changes.

<content type='text'>
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.

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:
