[ Upstream commit ad0f75e5f57ccbceec13274e1e242f2b5a6397ed ]

When we clone a socket in sk_clone_lock(), its sk_cgrp_data is
copied, so the cgroup refcnt must be taken too. And, unlike the
sk_alloc() path, sock_update_netprioidx() is not called here.
Therefore, it is safe and necessary to grab the cgroup refcnt
even when cgroup_sk_alloc is disabled.

sk_clone_lock() is in BH context anyway, the in_interrupt()
would terminate this function if called there. And for sk_alloc()
skcd-&gt;val is always zero. So it's safe to factor out the code
to make it more readable.

The global variable 'cgroup_sk_alloc_disabled' is used to determine
whether to take these reference counts. It is impossible to make
the reference counting correct unless we save this bit of information
in skcd-&gt;val. So, add a new bit there to record whether the socket
has already taken the reference counts. This obviously relies on
kmalloc() to align cgroup pointers to at least 4 bytes,
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is certainly larger than that.

This bug seems to be introduced since the beginning, commit
d979a39d7242 ("cgroup: duplicate cgroup reference when cloning sockets")
tried to fix it but not compeletely. It seems not easy to trigger until
the recent commit 090e28b229af
("netprio_cgroup: Fix unlimited memory leak of v2 cgroups") was merged.

<title>cgroup: Iterate tasks that did not finish do_exit()</title>

commit 9c974c77246460fa6a92c18554c3311c8c83c160 upstream.

PF_EXITING is set earlier than actual removal from css_set when a task
is exitting. This can confuse cgroup.procs readers who see no PF_EXITING
tasks, however, rmdir is checking against css_set membership so it can
transitionally fail with EBUSY.

Fix this by listing tasks that weren't unlinked from css_set active
lists.
It may happen that other users of the task iterator (without
CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS) spot a PF_EXITING task before cgroup_exit(). This
is equal to the state before commit c03cd7738a83 ("cgroup: Include dying
leaders with live threads in PROCS iterations") but it may be reviewed
later.

<title>cgroup: cgroup_procs_next should increase position index</title>

commit 2d4ecb030dcc90fb725ecbfc82ce5d6c37906e0e upstream.

If seq_file .next fuction does not change position index,
read after some lseek can generate unexpected output:

1) dd bs=1 skip output of each 2nd elements
$ dd if=/sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.procs bs=8 count=1
2
3
4
5
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
8 bytes copied, 0,000267297 s, 29,9 kB/s
[test@localhost ~]$ dd if=/sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.procs bs=1 count=8
2
4 &lt;&lt;&lt; NB! 3 was skipped
6 &lt;&lt;&lt;    ... and 5 too
8 &lt;&lt;&lt;    ... and 7
8+0 records in
8+0 records out
8 bytes copied, 5,2123e-05 s, 153 kB/s

 This happen because __cgroup_procs_start() makes an extra
 extra cgroup_procs_next() call

2) read after lseek beyond end of file generates whole last line.
3) read after lseek into middle of last line generates
expected rest of last line and unexpected whole line once again.

Additionally patch removes an extra position index changes in
__cgroup_procs_start()

[ Upstream commit e876ecc67db80dfdb8e237f71e5b43bb88ae549c ]

We are testing network memory accounting in our setup and noticed
inconsistent network memory usage and often unrelated cgroups network
usage correlates with testing workload. On further inspection, it
seems like mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() and cgroup_sk_alloc() are broken in
irq context specially for cgroup v1.

mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() and cgroup_sk_alloc() can be called in irq context
and kind of assumes that this can only happen from sk_clone_lock()
and the source sock object has already associated cgroup. However in
cgroup v1, where network memory accounting is opt-in, the source sock
can be unassociated with any cgroup and the new cloned sock can get
associated with unrelated interrupted cgroup.

Cgroup v2 can also suffer if the source sock object was created by
process in the root cgroup or if sk_alloc() is called in irq context.
The fix is to just do nothing in interrupt.

WARNING: Please note that about half of the TCP sockets are allocated
from the IRQ context, so, memory used by such sockets will not be
accouted by the memcg.

<title>cgroup: Prevent double killing of css when enabling threaded cgroup</title>

commit 3bc0bb36fa30e95ca829e9cf480e1ef7f7638333 upstream.

The test_cgcore_no_internal_process_constraint_on_threads selftest when
running with subsystem controlling noise triggers two warnings:

&gt; [  597.443115] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 28167 at kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:3131 cgroup_apply_control_enable+0xe0/0x3f0
&gt; [  597.443413] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 28167 at kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:3177 cgroup_apply_control_disable+0xa6/0x160

Both stem from a call to cgroup_type_write. The first warning was also
triggered by syzkaller.

When we're switching cgroup to threaded mode shortly after a subsystem
was disabled on it, we can see the respective subsystem css dying there.

The warning in cgroup_apply_control_enable is harmless in this case
since we're not adding new subsys anyway.
The warning in cgroup_apply_control_disable indicates an attempt to kill
css of recently disabled subsystem repeatedly.

The commit prevents these situations by making cgroup_type_write wait
for all dying csses to go away before re-applying subtree controls.
When at it, the locations of WARN_ON_ONCE calls are moved so that
warning is triggered only when we are about to misuse the dying css.

commit 3bc0bb36fa30e95ca829e9cf480e1ef7f7638333 upstream.

The test_cgcore_no_internal_process_constraint_on_threads selftest when
running with subsystem controlling noise triggers two warnings:

&gt; [  597.443115] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 28167 at kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:3131 cgroup_apply_control_enable+0xe0/0x3f0
&gt; [  597.443413] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 28167 at kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:3177 cgroup_apply_control_disable+0xa6/0x160

Both stem from a call to cgroup_type_write. The first warning was also
triggered by syzkaller.

When we're switching cgroup to threaded mode shortly after a subsystem
was disabled on it, we can see the respective subsystem css dying there.

The warning in cgroup_apply_control_enable is harmless in this case
since we're not adding new subsys anyway.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - MAINTAINERS: Add Mark Rutland as perf submaintainer, Juri Lelli and
   Vincent Guittot as scheduler submaintainers. Add Dietmar Eggemann,
   Steven Rostedt, Ben Segall and Mel Gorman as scheduler reviewers.

   As perf and the scheduler is getting bigger and more complex,
   document the status quo of current responsibilities and interests,
   and spread the review pain^H^H^H^H fun via an increase in the Cc:
   linecount generated by scripts/get_maintainer.pl. :-)

 - Add another series of patches that brings the -rt (PREEMPT_RT) tree
   closer to mainline: split the monolithic CONFIG_PREEMPT dependencies
   into a new CONFIG_PREEMPTION category that will allow the eventual
   introduction of CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Still a few more hundred patches
   to go though.

 - Extend the CPU cgroup controller with uclamp.min and uclamp.max to
   allow the finer shaping of CPU bandwidth usage.

 - Micro-optimize energy-aware wake-ups from O(CPUS^2) to O(CPUS).

 - Improve the behavior of high CPU count, high thread count
   applications running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints.

 - Improve balancing with SCHED_IDLE (SCHED_BATCH) tasks present.

 - Improve CPU isolation housekeeping CPU allocation NUMA locality.

 - Fix deadline scheduler bandwidth calculations and logic when cpusets
   rebuilds the topology, or when it gets deadline-throttled while it's
   being offlined.

 - Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from
   setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization.
   Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and
   the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken
   before.

 - Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more
   optimal.

 - Rework (simplify) the pick_next_task() slowpath.

 - Improve load-balancing on AMD EPYC systems.

 - ... and misc cleanups, smaller fixes and improvements - please see
   the Git log for more details.

* 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (53 commits)
  sched/psi: Correct overly pessimistic size calculation

<title>cgroup: freezer: fix frozen state inheritance</title>

<content type='text'>
If a new child cgroup is created in the frozen cgroup hierarchy
(one or more of ancestor cgroups is frozen), the CGRP_FREEZE cgroup
flag should be set. Otherwise if a process will be attached to the
child cgroup, it won't become frozen.

The problem can be reproduced with the test_cgfreezer_mkdir test.

This is the output before this patch:
  ~/test_freezer
  ok 1 test_cgfreezer_simple
  ok 2 test_cgfreezer_tree
  ok 3 test_cgfreezer_forkbomb
  Cgroup /sys/fs/cgroup/cg_test_mkdir_A/cg_test_mkdir_B isn't frozen

  ok 7 test_cgfreezer_ptrace
  ok 8 test_cgfreezer_stopped

<content type='text'>
When the topology of root domains is modified by CPUset or CPUhotplug
operations information about the current deadline bandwidth held in the
root domain is lost.

This patch addresses the issue by recalculating the lost deadline
bandwidth information by circling through the deadline tasks held in
CPUsets and adding their current load to the root domain they are
associated with.
