Pull notification queue from David Howells:
 "This adds a general notification queue concept and adds an event
  source for keys/keyrings, such as linking and unlinking keys and
  changing their attributes.

  Thanks to Debarshi Ray, we do have a pull request to use this to fix a
  problem with gnome-online-accounts - as mentioned last time:

     https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-online-accounts/merge_requests/47

  Without this, g-o-a has to constantly poll a keyring-based kerberos
  cache to find out if kinit has changed anything.

  [ There are other notification pending: mount/sb fsinfo notifications
    for libmount that Karel Zak and Ian Kent have been working on, and
    Christian Brauner would like to use them in lxc, but let's see how
    this one works first ]

  LSM hooks are included:

   - A set of hooks are provided that allow an LSM to rule on whether or
     not a watch may be set. Each of these hooks takes a different
     "watched object" parameter, so they're not really shareable. The
     LSM should use current's credentials. [Wanted by SELinux & Smack]

   - A hook is provided to allow an LSM to rule on whether or not a
     particular message may be posted to a particular queue. This is
     given the credentials from the event generator (which may be the
     system) and the watch setter. [Wanted by Smack]

  I've provided SELinux and Smack with implementations of some of these
  hooks.

  WHY
  ===

  Key/keyring notifications are desirable because if you have your
  kerberos tickets in a file/directory, your Gnome desktop will monitor
  that using something like fanotify and tell you if your credentials
  cache changes.

  However, we also have the ability to cache your kerberos tickets in
  the session, user or persistent keyring so that it isn't left around
  on disk across a reboot or logout. Keyrings, however, cannot currently
  be monitored asynchronously, so the desktop has to poll for it - not
  so good on a laptop. This facility will allow the desktop to avoid the
  need to poll.

  DESIGN DECISIONS
  ================

   - The notification queue is built on top of a standard pipe. Messages
     are effectively spliced in. The pipe is opened with a special flag:

        pipe2(fds, O_NOTIFICATION_PIPE);

     The special flag has the same value as O_EXCL (which doesn't seem
     like it will ever be applicable in this context)[?]. It is given up
     front to make it a lot easier to prohibit splice&co from accessing
     the pipe.

     [?] Should this be done some other way?  I'd rather not use up a new
         O_* flag if I can avoid it - should I add a pipe3() system call
         instead?

     The pipe is then configured::

        ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, queue_depth);
        ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter);

     Messages are then read out of the pipe using read().

   - It should be possible to allow write() to insert data into the
     notification pipes too, but this is currently disabled as the
     kernel has to be able to insert messages into the pipe *without*
     holding pipe->mutex and the code to make this work needs careful
     auditing.

   - sendfile(), splice() and vmsplice() are disabled on notification
     pipes because of the pipe->mutex issue and also because they
     sometimes want to revert what they just did - but one or more
     notification messages might've been interleaved in the ring.

   - The kernel inserts messages with the wait queue spinlock held. This
     means that pipe_read() and pipe_write() have to take the spinlock
     to update the queue pointers.

   - Records in the buffer are binary, typed and have a length so that
     they can be of varying size.

     This allows multiple heterogeneous sources to share a common
     buffer; there are 16 million types available, of which I've used
     just a few, so there is scope for others to be used. Tags may be
     specified when a watchpoint is created to help distinguish the
     sources.

   - Records are filterable as types have up to 256 subtypes that can be
     individually filtered. Other filtration is also available.

   - Notification pipes don't interfere with each other; each may be
     bound to a different set of watches. Any particular notification
     will be copied to all the queues that are currently watching for it
     - and only those that are watching for it.

   - When recording a notification, the kernel will not sleep, but will
     rather mark a queue as having lost a message if there's
     insufficient space. read() will fabricate a loss notification
     message at an appropriate point later.

   - The notification pipe is created and then watchpoints are attached
     to it, using one of:

        keyctl_watch_key(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fds[1], 0x01);
        watch_mount(AT_FDCWD, "/", 0, fd, 0x02);
        watch_sb(AT_FDCWD, "/mnt", 0, fd, 0x03);

     where in both cases, fd indicates the queue and the number after is
     a tag between 0 and 255.

   - Watches are removed if either the notification pipe is destroyed or
     the watched object is destroyed. In the latter case, a message will
     be generated indicating the enforced watch removal.

  Things I want to avoid:

   - Introducing features that make the core VFS dependent on the
     network stack or networking namespaces (ie. usage of netlink).

   - Dumping all this stuff into dmesg and having a daemon that sits
     there parsing the output and distributing it as this then puts the
     responsibility for security into userspace and makes handling
     namespaces tricky. Further, dmesg might not exist or might be
     inaccessible inside a container.

   - Letting users see events they shouldn't be able to see.

  TESTING AND MANPAGES
  ====================

   - The keyutils tree has a pipe-watch branch that has keyctl commands
     for making use of notifications. Proposed manual pages can also be
     found on this branch, though a couple of them really need to go to
     the main manpages repository instead.

     If the kernel supports the watching of keys, then running "make
     test" on that branch will cause the testing infrastructure to spawn
     a monitoring process on the side that monitors a notifications pipe
     for all the key/keyring changes induced by the tests and they'll
     all be checked off to make sure they happened.

        https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/log/?h=pipe-watch

   - A test program is provided (samples/watch_queue/watch_test) that
     can be used to monitor for keyrings, mount and superblock events.
     Information on the notifications is simply logged to stdout"

+General notification mechanism
+==============================
+
+The general notification mechanism is built on top of the standard pipe driver
+whereby it effectively splices notification messages from the kernel into pipes
+opened by userspace.  This can be used in conjunction with::
+
+  * Key/keyring notifications
+
+
+The notifications buffers can be enabled by:
+
+	"General setup"/"General notification queue"
+	(CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE)
+
+This document has the following sections:
+
+.. contents:: :local:
+
+
+Overview
+========
+
+This facility appears as a pipe that is opened in a special mode.  The pipe's
+internal ring buffer is used to hold messages that are generated by the kernel.
+These messages are then read out by read().  Splice and similar are disabled on
+such pipes due to them wanting to, under some circumstances, revert their
+additions to the ring - which might end up interleaved with notification
+messages.
+
+The owner of the pipe has to tell the kernel which sources it would like to
+watch through that pipe.  Only sources that have been connected to a pipe will
+insert messages into it.  Note that a source may be bound to multiple pipes and
+insert messages into all of them simultaneously.
+
+Filters may also be emplaced on a pipe so that certain source types and
+subevents can be ignored if they're not of interest.
+
+A message will be discarded if there isn't a slot available in the ring or if
+no preallocated message buffer is available.  In both of these cases, read()
+will insert a WATCH_META_LOSS_NOTIFICATION message into the output buffer after
+the last message currently in the buffer has been read.
+
+Note that when producing a notification, the kernel does not wait for the
+consumers to collect it, but rather just continues on.  This means that
+notifications can be generated whilst spinlocks are held and also protects the
+kernel from being held up indefinitely by a userspace malfunction.
+
+
+Message Structure
+=================
+
+Notification messages begin with a short header::
+
+	struct watch_notification {
+		__u32	type:24;
+		__u32	subtype:8;
+		__u32	info;
+	};
+
+"type" indicates the source of the notification record and "subtype" indicates
+the type of record from that source (see the Watch Sources section below).  The
+type may also be "WATCH_TYPE_META".  This is a special record type generated
+internally by the watch queue itself.  There are two subtypes:
+
+  * WATCH_META_REMOVAL_NOTIFICATION
+  * WATCH_META_LOSS_NOTIFICATION
+
+The first indicates that an object on which a watch was installed was removed
+or destroyed and the second indicates that some messages have been lost.
+
+"info" indicates a bunch of things, including:
+
+  * The length of the message in bytes, including the header (mask with
+    WATCH_INFO_LENGTH and shift by WATCH_INFO_LENGTH__SHIFT).  This indicates
+    the size of the record, which may be between 8 and 127 bytes.
+
+  * The watch ID (mask with WATCH_INFO_ID and shift by WATCH_INFO_ID__SHIFT).
+    This indicates that caller's ID of the watch, which may be between 0
+    and 255.  Multiple watches may share a queue, and this provides a means to
+    distinguish them.
+
+  * A type-specific field (WATCH_INFO_TYPE_INFO).  This is set by the
+    notification producer to indicate some meaning specific to the type and
+    subtype.
+
+Everything in info apart from the length can be used for filtering.
+
+The header can be followed by supplementary information.  The format of this is
+at the discretion is defined by the type and subtype.
+
+
+Watch List (Notification Source) API
+====================================
+
+A "watch list" is a list of watchers that are subscribed to a source of
+notifications.  A list may be attached to an object (say a key or a superblock)
+or may be global (say for device events).  From a userspace perspective, a
+non-global watch list is typically referred to by reference to the object it
+belongs to (such as using KEYCTL_NOTIFY and giving it a key serial number to
+watch that specific key).
+
+To manage a watch list, the following functions are provided:
+
+  * ``void init_watch_list(struct watch_list *wlist,
+			   void (*release_watch)(struct watch *wlist));``
+
+    Initialise a watch list.  If ``release_watch`` is not NULL, then this
+    indicates a function that should be called when the watch_list object is
+    destroyed to discard any references the watch list holds on the watched
+    object.
+
+  * ``void remove_watch_list(struct watch_list *wlist);``
+
+    This removes all of the watches subscribed to a watch_list and frees them
+    and then destroys the watch_list object itself.
+
+
+Watch Queue (Notification Output) API
+=====================================
+
+A "watch queue" is the buffer allocated by an application that notification
+records will be written into.  The workings of this are hidden entirely inside
+of the pipe device driver, but it is necessary to gain a reference to it to set
+a watch.  These can be managed with:
+
+  * ``struct watch_queue *get_watch_queue(int fd);``
+
+    Since watch queues are indicated to the kernel by the fd of the pipe that
+    implements the buffer, userspace must hand that fd through a system call.
+    This can be used to look up an opaque pointer to the watch queue from the
+    system call.
+
+  * ``void put_watch_queue(struct watch_queue *wqueue);``
+
+    This discards the reference obtained from ``get_watch_queue()``.
+
+
+Watch Subscription API
+======================
+
+A "watch" is a subscription on a watch list, indicating the watch queue, and
+thus the buffer, into which notification records should be written.  The watch
+queue object may also carry filtering rules for that object, as set by
+userspace.  Some parts of the watch struct can be set by the driver::
+
+	struct watch {
+		union {
+			u32		info_id;	/* ID to be OR'd in to info field */
+			...
+		};
+		void			*private;	/* Private data for the watched object */
+		u64			id;		/* Internal identifier */
+		...
+	};
+
+The ``info_id`` value should be an 8-bit number obtained from userspace and
+shifted by WATCH_INFO_ID__SHIFT.  This is OR'd into the WATCH_INFO_ID field of
+struct watch_notification::info when and if the notification is written into
+the associated watch queue buffer.
+
+The ``private`` field is the driver's data associated with the watch_list and
+is cleaned up by the ``watch_list::release_watch()`` method.
+
+The ``id`` field is the source's ID.  Notifications that are posted with a
+different ID are ignored.
+
+The following functions are provided to manage watches:
+
+  * ``void init_watch(struct watch *watch, struct watch_queue *wqueue);``
+
+    Initialise a watch object, setting its pointer to the watch queue, using
+    appropriate barriering to avoid lockdep complaints.
+
+  * ``int add_watch_to_object(struct watch *watch, struct watch_list *wlist);``
+
+    Subscribe a watch to a watch list (notification source).  The
+    driver-settable fields in the watch struct must have been set before this
+    is called.
+
+  * ``int remove_watch_from_object(struct watch_list *wlist,
+				   struct watch_queue *wqueue,
+				   u64 id, false);``
+
+    Remove a watch from a watch list, where the watch must match the specified
+    watch queue (``wqueue``) and object identifier (``id``).  A notification
+    (``WATCH_META_REMOVAL_NOTIFICATION``) is sent to the watch queue to
+    indicate that the watch got removed.
+
+  * ``int remove_watch_from_object(struct watch_list *wlist, NULL, 0, true);``
+
+    Remove all the watches from a watch list.  It is expected that this will be
+    called preparatory to destruction and that the watch list will be
+    inaccessible to new watches by this point.  A notification
+    (``WATCH_META_REMOVAL_NOTIFICATION``) is sent to the watch queue of each
+    subscribed watch to indicate that the watch got removed.
+
+
+Notification Posting API
+========================
+
+To post a notification to watch list so that the subscribed watches can see it,
+the following function should be used::
+
+	void post_watch_notification(struct watch_list *wlist,
+				     struct watch_notification *n,
+				     const struct cred *cred,
+				     u64 id);
+
+The notification should be preformatted and a pointer to the header (``n``)
+should be passed in.  The notification may be larger than this and the size in
+units of buffer slots is noted in ``n->info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH``.
+
+The ``cred`` struct indicates the credentials of the source (subject) and is
+passed to the LSMs, such as SELinux, to allow or suppress the recording of the
+note in each individual queue according to the credentials of that queue
+(object).
+
+The ``id`` is the ID of the source object (such as the serial number on a key).
+Only watches that have the same ID set in them will see this notification.
+
+
+Watch Sources
+=============
+
+Any particular buffer can be fed from multiple sources.  Sources include:
+
+  * WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY
+
+    Notifications of this type indicate changes to keys and keyrings, including
+    the changes of keyring contents or the attributes of keys.
+
+    See Documentation/security/keys/core.rst for more information.
+
+
+Event Filtering
+===============
+
+Once a watch queue has been created, a set of filters can be applied to limit
+the events that are received using::
+
+	struct watch_notification_filter filter = {
+		...
+	};
+	ioctl(fd, IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter)
+
+The filter description is a variable of type::
+
+	struct watch_notification_filter {
+		__u32	nr_filters;
+		__u32	__reserved;
+		struct watch_notification_type_filter filters[];
+	};
+
+Where "nr_filters" is the number of filters in filters[] and "__reserved"
+should be 0.  The "filters" array has elements of the following type::
+
+	struct watch_notification_type_filter {
+		__u32	type;
+		__u32	info_filter;
+		__u32	info_mask;
+		__u32	subtype_filter[8];
+	};
+
+Where:
+
+  * ``type`` is the event type to filter for and should be something like
+    "WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY"
+
+  * ``info_filter`` and ``info_mask`` act as a filter on the info field of the
+    notification record.  The notification is only written into the buffer if::
+
+	(watch.info & info_mask) == info_filter
+
+    This could be used, for example, to ignore events that are not exactly on
+    the watched point in a mount tree.
+
+  * ``subtype_filter`` is a bitmask indicating the subtypes that are of
+    interest.  Bit 0 of subtype_filter[0] corresponds to subtype 0, bit 1 to
+    subtype 1, and so on.
+
+If the argument to the ioctl() is NULL, then the filters will be removed and
+all events from the watched sources will come through.
+
+
+Userspace Code Example
+======================
+
+A buffer is created with something like the following::
+
+	pipe2(fds, O_TMPFILE);
+	ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, 256);
+
+It can then be set to receive keyring change notifications::
+
+	keyctl(KEYCTL_WATCH_KEY, KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, fds[1], 0x01);
+
+The notifications can then be consumed by something like the following::
+
+	static void consumer(int rfd, struct watch_queue_buffer *buf)
+	{
+		unsigned char buffer[128];
+		ssize_t buf_len;
+
+		while (buf_len = read(rfd, buffer, sizeof(buffer)),
+		       buf_len > 0
+		       ) {
+			void *p = buffer;
+			void *end = buffer + buf_len;
+			while (p < end) {
+				union {
+					struct watch_notification n;
+					unsigned char buf1[128];
+				} n;
+				size_t largest, len;
+
+				largest = end - p;
+				if (largest > 128)
+					largest = 128;
+				memcpy(&n, p, largest);
+
+				len = (n->info & WATCH_INFO_LENGTH) >>
+					WATCH_INFO_LENGTH__SHIFT;
+				if (len == 0 || len > largest)
+					return;
+
+				switch (n.n.type) {
+				case WATCH_TYPE_META:
+					got_meta(&n.n);
+				case WATCH_TYPE_KEY_NOTIFY:
+					saw_key_change(&n.n);
+					break;
+				}
+
+				p += len;
+			}
+		}
+	}
