commit 0f2122045b946241a9e549c2a76cea54fa58a7ff upstream.

Grab actual references to the files_struct. To avoid circular references
issues due to this, we add a per-task note that keeps track of what
io_uring contexts a task has used. When the tasks execs or exits its
assigned files, we cancel requests based on this tracking.

With that, we can grab proper references to the files table, and no
longer need to rely on stashing away ring_fd and ring_file to check
if the ring_fd may have been closed.

This change converts the existing mmap_sem rwsem calls to use the new mmap
locking API instead.

The change is generated using coccinelle with the following rule:

<content type='text'>
Currently copy_string_kernel is just a wrapper around copy_strings that
simplifies the calling conventions and uses set_fs to allow passing a
kernel pointer.  But due to the fact the we only need to handle a single
kernel argument pointer, the logic can be sigificantly simplified while
getting rid of the set_fs.

copy_strings_kernel is always used with a single argument,
adjust the calling convention to that.

Pull execve updates from Eric Biederman:
 "Last cycle for the Nth time I ran into bugs and quality of
  implementation issues related to exec that could not be easily be
  fixed because of the way exec is implemented. So I have been digging
  into exec and cleanup up what I can.

  I don't think I have exec sorted out enough to fix the issues I
  started with but I have made some headway this cycle with 4 sets of
  changes.

   - promised cleanups after introducing exec_update_mutex

   - trivial cleanups for exec

   - control flow simplifications

   - remove the recomputation of bprm-&gt;cred

  The net result is code that is a bit easier to understand and work
  with and a decrease in the number of lines of code (if you don't count
  the added tests)"

* 'exec-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (24 commits)
  exec: Compute file based creds only once
  exec: Add a per bprm-&gt;file version of per_clear
  binfmt_elf_fdpic: fix execfd build regression
  selftests/exec: Add binfmt_script regression test
  exec: Remove recursion from search_binary_handler
  exec: Generic execfd support
  exec/binfmt_script: Don't modify bprm-&gt;buf and then return -ENOEXEC
  exec: Move the call of prepare_binprm into search_binary_handler
  exec: Allow load_misc_binary to call prepare_binprm unconditionally
  exec: Convert security_bprm_set_creds into security_bprm_repopulate_creds
  exec: Factor security_bprm_creds_for_exec out of security_bprm_set_creds
  exec: Teach prepare_exec_creds how exec treats uids &amp; gids
  exec: Set the point of no return sooner
  exec: Move handling of the point of no return to the top level
  exec: Run sync_mm_rss before taking exec_update_mutex

Pull proc updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This has four sets of changes:

   - modernize proc to support multiple private instances

   - ensure we see the exit of each process tid exactly

   - remove has_group_leader_pid

   - use pids not tasks in posix-cpu-timers lookup

  Alexey updated proc so each mount of proc uses a new superblock. This
  allows people to actually use mount options with proc with no fear of
  messing up another mount of proc. Given the kernel's internal mounts
  of proc for things like uml this was a real problem, and resulted in
  Android's hidepid mount options being ignored and introducing security
  issues.

  The rest of the changes are small cleanups and fixes that came out of
  my work to allow this change to proc. In essence it is swapping the
  pids in de_thread during exec which removes a special case the code
  had to handle. Then updating the code to stop handling that special
  case"

* 'proc-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
  proc: proc_pid_ns takes super_block as an argument
  remove the no longer needed pid_alive() check in __task_pid_nr_ns()
  posix-cpu-timers: Replace __get_task_for_clock with pid_for_clock
  posix-cpu-timers: Replace cpu_timer_pid_type with clock_pid_type
  posix-cpu-timers: Extend rcu_read_lock removing task_struct references
  signal: Remove has_group_leader_pid
  exec: Remove BUG_ON(has_group_leader_pid)
  posix-cpu-timer:  Unify the now redundant code in lookup_task
  posix-cpu-timer: Tidy up group_leader logic in lookup_task
  proc: Ensure we see the exit of each process tid exactly once
  rculist: Add hlists_swap_heads_rcu
  proc: Use PIDTYPE_TGID in next_tgid
  Use proc_pid_ns() to get pid_namespace from the proc superblock
  proc: use named enums for better readability
  proc: use human-readable values for hidepid
  docs: proc: add documentation for "hidepid=4" and "subset=pid" options and new mount behavior
  proc: add option to mount only a pids subset
  proc: instantiate only pids that we can ptrace on 'hidepid=4' mount option
  proc: allow to mount many instances of proc in one pid namespace
  proc: rename struct proc_fs_info to proc_fs_opts
