commit 9b24fef9f0410fb5364245d6cc2bd044cc064007 upstream.
Commit 53dad6d3a8e5 ("ipc: fix race with LSMs") updated ipc_rcu_putref()
to receive rcu freeing function but used generic ipc_rcu_free() instead
of msg_rcu_free() which does security cleaning.
Running LTP msgsnd06 with kmemleak gives the following:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak

Manfred Spraul suggested to fix sem.c as well and Davidlohr Bueso to
only use ipc_rcu_free in case of security allocation failure in newary()

The patch above was tagged for stable v3.12+, however it references a fix
that was backported in 3.10.16 as commit e84ca333, so I'm unsure whether
3.10 is affected or not. It *seems* to me that I should replace remaining
instances of ipc_rcu_free with sem_rcu_free in sem.c, and with msg_rcu_free
in msg.c, but I'd prefer a confirmation. For now I'm postponing this fix,
any hint would be much appreciated.
Yes, we need the patch for v3.10 as well.
There must be exactly two instances of ipc_rcu_free in each of sem.c,
msg.c, shm.c:
It is called when security_{sem,msg_queue,shm}_alloc fails.
And obviously within sem_rcu_free, ... .
The rest must be sem_rcu_free(), ... .
Should I test if the patch from 3.14 works with v3.10?
