Destroying psi trigger in cgroup_file_release causes UAF issues when
a cgroup is removed from under a polling process. This is happening
because cgroup removal causes a call to cgroup_file_release while the
actual file is still alive. Destroying the trigger at this point would
also destroy its waitqueue head and if there is still a polling process
on that file accessing the waitqueue, it will step on the freed pointer:
do_select
vfs_poll
do_rmdir
cgroup_rmdir
kernfs_drain_open_files
cgroup_file_release
cgroup_pressure_release
psi_trigger_destroy
wake_up_pollfree(&t->event_wait)
// vfs_poll is unblocked
synchronize_rcu
kfree(t)
poll_freewait -> UAF access to the trigger's waitqueue head
Patch [1] fixed this issue for epoll() case using wake_up_pollfree(),
however the same issue exists for synchronous poll() case.
The root cause of this issue is that the lifecycles of the psi trigger's
waitqueue and of the file associated with the trigger are different. Fix
this by using kernfs_generic_poll function when polling on cgroup-specific
psi triggers. It internally uses kernfs_open_node->poll waitqueue head
with its lifecycle tied to the file's lifecycle. This also renders the
fix in [1] obsolete, so revert it.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - Whenever cpuset needs to rebuild sched_domain, it walked all tasks looking for DEADLINE tasks as they need to be accounted on the new domain. Walking all tasks can be expensive and there may not be any DEADLINE tasks at all. Task iteration is now omitted if there are no DEADLINE tasks - Fixes DEADLINE bandwidth misaccounting after task migration failures - When no controller is enabled, -Wstringop-overflow warning is triggered. The fix patch added an early exit which is too eager and got reverted for now. Will fix later - Everything else is minor cleanups * tag 'cgroup-for-6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: Revert "cgroup: Avoid -Wstringop-overflow warnings" cgroup/misc: Expose misc.current on cgroup v2 root cgroup: Avoid -Wstringop-overflow warnings cgroup: remove obsolete comment on cgroup_on_dfl() cgroup: remove unused task_cgroup_path() cgroup/cpuset: remove unneeded header files cgroup: make cgroup_is_threaded() and cgroup_is_thread_root() static rdmacg: fix kernel-doc warnings in rdmacg cgroup: Replace the css_set call with cgroup_get cgroup: remove unused macro for_each_e_css() cgroup: Update out-of-date comment in cgroup_migrate() cgroup: Replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy cgroup/cpuset: remove unneeded header files cgroup/cpuset: Free DL BW in case can_attach() fails sched/deadline: Create DL BW alloc, free & check overflow interface cgroup/cpuset: Iterate only if DEADLINE tasks are present sched/cpuset: Keep track of SCHED_DEADLINE task in cpusets sched/cpuset: Bring back cpuset_mutex cgroup/cpuset: Rename functions dealing with DEADLINE accounting
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Scheduler SMP load-balancer improvements:
- Avoid unnecessary migrations within SMT domains on hybrid systems.
Problem:
On hybrid CPU systems, (processors with a mixture of
higher-frequency SMT cores and lower-frequency non-SMT cores),
under the old code lower-priority CPUs pulled tasks from the
higher-priority cores if more than one SMT sibling was busy -
resulting in many unnecessary task migrations.
Solution:
The new code improves the load balancer to recognize SMT cores
with more than one busy sibling and allows lower-priority CPUs
to pull tasks, which avoids superfluous migrations and lets
lower-priority cores inspect all SMT siblings for the busiest
queue.
- Implement the 'runnable boosting' feature in the EAS balancer:
consider CPU contention in frequency, EAS max util & load-balance
busiest CPU selection.
This improves CPU utilization for certain workloads, while leaves
other key workloads unchanged.
Scheduler infrastructure improvements:
- Rewrite the scheduler topology setup code by consolidating it into
the build_sched_topology() helper function and building it
dynamically on the fly.
- Resolve the local_clock() vs. noinstr complications by rewriting
the code: provide separate sched_clock_noinstr() and
local_clock_noinstr() functions to be used in instrumentation code,
and make sure it is all instrumentation-safe.
Fixes:
- Fix a kthread_park() race with wait_woken()
- Fix misc wait_task_inactive() bugs unearthed by the -rt merge:
- Fix UP PREEMPT bug by unifying the SMP and UP implementations
- Fix task_struct::saved_state handling
- Fix various rq clock update bugs, unearthed by turning on the rq
clock debugging code.
- Fix the PSI WINDOW_MIN_US trigger limit, which was easy to trigger
by creating enough cgroups, by removing the warnign and restricting
window size triggers to PSI file write-permission or
CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.
- Propagate SMT flags in the topology when removing degenerate domain
- Fix grub_reclaim() calculation bug in the deadline scheduler code
- Avoid resetting the min update period when it is unnecessary, in
psi_trigger_destroy().
- Don't balance a task to its current running CPU in load_balance(),
which was possible on certain NUMA topologies with overlapping
groups.
- Fix the sched-debug printing of rq->nr_uninterruptible
Cleanups:
- Address various -Wmissing-prototype warnings, as a preparation to
(maybe) enable this warning in the future.
- Remove unused code
- Mark more functions __init
- Fix shadow-variable warnings"

The race that cause this bug can be shown as below:
(hotplug cpu) | (umount cpuset)
mutex_lock(&cpuset_mutex) | mutex_lock(&cgroup_mutex)
cpuset_hotplug_workfn |
rebuild_root_domains | rebind_subsystems
update_tasks_root_domain | spin_lock_irq(&css_set_lock)
css_task_iter_start | list_move_tail(&cset->e_cset_node[ss->id]
while(css_task_iter_next) | &dcgrp->e_csets[ss->id]);
css_task_iter_end | spin_unlock_irq(&css_set_lock)
mutex_unlock(&cpuset_mutex) | mutex_unlock(&cgroup_mutex)
Inside css_task_iter_start/next/end, css_set_lock is hold and then
released, so when iterating task(left side), the css_set may be moved to
another list(right side), then it->cset_head points to the old list head
and it->cset_pos->next points to the head node of new list, which can't
be used as struct css_set.
To fix this issue, switch from all css_sets to only scgrp's css_sets to
patch in-flight iterators to preserve correct iteration, and then
update it->cset_head as well.
