ipc/mqueue.c: change __do_notify() to bypass check_kill_permission()
commit b5f20061 upstream. Commit cc731525 ("signal: Remove kernel interal si_code magic") changed the value of SI_FROMUSER(SI_MESGQ), this means that mq_notify() no longer works if the sender doesn't have rights to send a signal. Change __do_notify() to use do_send_sig_info() instead of kill_pid_info() to avoid check_kill_permission(). This needs the additional notify.sigev_signo != 0 check, shouldn't we change do_mq_notify() to deny sigev_signo == 0 ? Test-case: #include <signal.h> #include <mqueue.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <assert.h> static int notified; static void sigh(int sig) { notified = 1; } int main(void) { signal(SIGIO, sigh); int fd = mq_open("/mq", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0666, NULL); assert(fd >= 0); struct sigevent se = { .sigev_notify = SIGEV_SIGNAL, .sigev_signo = SIGIO, }; assert(mq_notify(fd, &se) == 0); if (!fork()) { ...
