Hi, Dmitry convinced me that I should properly review the initialization of new ipc objects, and I found another issue.
The series corrects 3 issues with ipc_addid(), and also renames two functions and corrects a wrong comment. 0001-ipc-reorganize-initialization-of-kern_ipc_perm.id: Access kern_ipc_perm.id under the IPC spinlock. My original idea of removing kern_ipc_perm entirely is not possible, e.g. the proc interface needs the id. 0002-ipc-reorganize-initialization-of-kern_ipc_perm.seq: Bugfix for the syzbot finding 0003-ipc-util.c-Use-ipc_rcu_putref-for-failues-in-ipc_add: Bugfix from code review 0004-ipc-Rename-ipcctl_pre_down_nolock.patch: Comment update & function rename from code review 0005-ipc-rename-ipc_lock-to-ipc_lock_idr: Function rename from code review 0006-ipc-util.c-correct-comment-in-ipc_obtain_object_che Comment correction from code review The patches are lightly tested, especially I have not tested the checkpoint/restore code or tested the failure cases. -- Manfred
