The\nsender (do_mq_timedsend) uses this address to later call pipelined_send.\nThis leads to a very hard to trigger race where a do_mq_timedreceive\ncall might return and leave do_mq_timedsend to rely on an invalid\naddress, causing the following crash:\nRIP: 0010:wake_q_add_safe+0x13/0x60\nCall Trace:\n__x64_sys_mq_timedsend+0x2a9/0x490\ndo_syscall_64+0x80/0x680\nentry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9\nRIP: 0033:0x7f5928e40343\nThe race occurs as:\n1. do_mq_timedreceive calls wq_sleep with the address of `struct\next_wait_queue` on function stack (aliased as `ewq_addr` here) - it\nholds a valid `struct ext_wait_queue *` as long as the stack has not\nbeen overwritten.\n2. `ewq_addr` gets added to info->e_wait_q[RECV].list in wq_add, and\ndo_mq_timedsend receives it via wq_get_first_waiter(info, RECV) to call\n__pipelined_op.\n3. Sender calls __pipelined_op::smp_store_release(&this->state,\nSTATE_READY). Here is where the race window begins. (`this` is\n`ewq_addr`.)\n4. If the receiver wakes up now in do_mq_timedreceive::wq_sleep, it\nwill see `state == STATE_READY` and break.\n5. do_mq_timedreceive returns, and `ewq_addr` is no longer guaranteed\nto be a `struct ext_wait_queue *` since it was on do_mq_timedreceive's\nstack. (Although the address may not get overwritten until another\nfunction happens to touch it, which means it can persist around for an\nindefinite time.)\n6. do_mq_timedsend::__pipelined_op() still believes `ewq_addr` is a\n`struct ext_wait_queue *`, and uses it to find a task_struct to pass to\nthe wake_q_add_safe call. In the lucky case where nothing has\noverwritten `ewq_addr` yet, `ewq_addr->task` is the right task_struct.\nIn the unlucky case, __pipelined_op::wake_q_add_safe gets handed a\nbogus address as the receiver's task_struct causing the crash.\ndo_mq_timedsend::__pipelined_op() should not dereference `this` after\nsetting STATE_READY, as the receiver counterpart is now free to return.\nChange __pipelined_op to call wake_q_add_safe on the receiver's\ntask_struct returned by get_task_struct, instead of dereferencing `this`\nwhich sits on the receiver's stack.\nAs Manfred pointed out, the race potentially also exists in\nipc/msg.c::expunge_all and ipc/sem.c::wake_up_sem_queue_prepare.
