Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here are the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.8-rc1.
Nothing major in here this release cycle, just lots of small cleanups
and some tweaks on kernfs that in the very end, got reverted and will
come back in a safer way next release cycle.
Included in here are:
- more driver core 'const' cleanups and fixes
- fw_devlink=rpm is now the default behavior
- kernfs tiny changes to remove some string functions
- cpu handling in the driver core is updated to work better on many
systems that add topologies and cpus after booting
- other minor changes and cleanups
All of the cpu handling patches have been acked by the respective
maintainers and are coming in here in one series. Everything has been
in linux-next for a while with no reported issues"

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - Yafang Shao added task_get_cgroup1() helper to enable a similar BPF helper so that BPF progs can be more useful on cgroup1 hierarchies. While cgroup1 is mostly in maintenance mode, this addition is very small while having an outsized usefulness for users who are still on cgroup1. Yafang also optimized root cgroup list access by making it RCU protected in the process. - Waiman Long optimized rstat operation leading to substantially lower and more consistent lock hold time while flushing the hierarchical statistics. As the lock can be acquired briefly in various hot paths, this reduction has cascading benefits. - Waiman also improved the quality of isolation for cpuset's isolated partitions. CPUs which are allocated to isolated partitions are now excluded from running unbound work items and cpu_is_isolated() test which is used by vmstat and memcg to reduce interference now includes cpuset isolated CPUs. While it isn't there yet, the hope is eventually reaching parity with the isolation level provided by the `isolcpus` boot param but in a dynamic manner. * tag 'cgroup-for-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup: Move rcu_head up near the top of cgroup_root cgroup/cpuset: Include isolated cpuset CPUs in cpu_is_isolated() check cgroup: Avoid false cacheline sharing of read mostly rstat_cpu cgroup/rstat: Optimize cgroup_rstat_updated_list() cgroup: Fix documentation for cpu.idle cgroup/cpuset: Expose cpuset.cpus.isolated workqueue: Move workqueue_set_unbound_cpumask() and its helpers inside CONFIG_SYSFS cgroup/rstat: Reduce cpu_lock hold time in cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() cgroup/cpuset: Take isolated CPUs out of workqueue unbound cpumask cgroup/cpuset: Keep track of CPUs in isolated partitions selftests/cgroup: Minor code cleanup and reorganization of test_cpuset_prs.sh workqueue: Add workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask() to exclude CPUs from wq_unbound_cpumask selftests: cgroup: Fixes a typo in a comment cgroup: Add a new helper for cgroup1 hierarchy cgroup: Add annotation for holding namespace_sem in current_cgns_cgroup_from_root() cgroup: Eliminate the need for cgroup_mutex in proc_cgroup_show() cgroup: Make operations on the cgroup root_list RCU safe cgroup: Remove unnecessary list_empty()
One of the last remaining users of strlcpy() in the kernel is
kernfs_path_from_node_locked(), which passes back the problematic "length
we _would_ have copied" return value to indicate truncation. Convert the
chain of all callers to use the negative return value (some of which
already doing this explicitly). All callers were already also checking
for negative return values, so the risk to missed checks looks very low.
In this analysis, it was found that cgroup1_release_agent() actually
didn't handle the "too large" condition, so this is technically also a
bug fix. :)
Here's the chain of callers, and resolution identifying each one as now
handling the correct return value:
kernfs_path_from_node_locked()
kernfs_path_from_node()
pr_cont_kernfs_path()

By passing the fsugid to kernfs_create_dir_ns(), we don't need
cgroup_kn_set_ugid() any longer. That function was added for exactly
this purpose by commit 49957f8e2a43 ("cgroup: newly created dirs and
files should be owned by the creator").
Eliminating this piece of duplicate code means we benefit from future
improvements to kernfs_create_dir_ns(); for example, both are lacking
S_ISGID support currently, which my next patch will add to
kernfs_create_dir_ns(). It cannot (easily) be added to
cgroup_kn_set_ugid() because we can't dereference struct kernfs_iattrs
from there.

519fabc7aaba ("psi: remove 500ms min window size limitation for
triggers") breaks unprivileged psi polling on cgroups.
Historically, we had a privilege check for polling in the open() of a
pressure file in /proc, but were erroneously missing it for the open()
of cgroup pressure files.
When unprivileged polling was introduced in d82caa273565 ("sched/psi:
Allow unprivileged polling of N*2s period"), it needed to filter
privileges depending on the exact polling parameters, and as such
moved the CAP_SYS_RESOURCE check from the proc open() callback to
psi_trigger_create(). Both the proc files as well as cgroup files go
through this during write(). This implicitly added the missing check
for privileges required for HT polling for cgroups.
When 519fabc7aaba ("psi: remove 500ms min window size limitation for
triggers") followed right after to remove further restrictions on the
RT polling window, it incorrectly assumed the cgroup privilege check
was still missing and added it to the cgroup open(), mirroring what we
used to do for proc files in the past.
As a result, unprivileged poll requests that would be supported now
get rejected when opening the cgroup pressure file for writing.
Remove the cgroup open() check. psi_trigger_create() handles it.
Fixes: 519fabc7aaba ("psi: remove 500ms min window size limitation for triggers")

When I initially examined the function current_cgns_cgroup_from_root(), I was perplexed by its lack of holding cgroup_mutex. However, after Michal explained the reason[0] to me, I realized that it already holds the namespace_sem. I believe this intricacy could also confuse others, so it would be advisable to include an annotation for clarification. After we replace the cgroup_mutex with RCU read lock, if current doesn't hold the namespace_sem, the root cgroup will be NULL. So let's add a WARN_ON_ONCE() for it. [0]. https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/afdnpo3jz2ic2ampud7swd6so5carkilts2mkygcaw67vbw6yh@5b5mncf7qyet Signed-off-by: Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com> Cc: Michal Koutny <mkoutny@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
The cgroup root_list is already RCU-safe. Therefore, we can replace the
cgroup_mutex with the RCU read lock in some particular paths. This change
will be particularly beneficial for frequent operations, such as
`cat /proc/self/cgroup`, in a cgroup1-based container environment.
I did stress tests with this change, as outlined below
(with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST enabled):
- Continuously mounting and unmounting named cgroups in some tasks,
for example:
cgrp_name=$1
while true
do
mount -t cgroup -o none,name=$cgrp_name none /$cgrp_name
umount /$cgrp_name
done
- Continuously triggering proc_cgroup_show() in some tasks concurrently,
for example:
while true; do cat /proc/self/cgroup > /dev/null; done
They can ran successfully after implementing this change, with no RCU
warnings in dmesg.

At present, when we perform operations on the cgroup root_list, we must hold the cgroup_mutex, which is a relatively heavyweight lock. In reality, we can make operations on this list RCU-safe, eliminating the need to hold the cgroup_mutex during traversal. Modifications to the list only occur in the cgroup root setup and destroy paths, which should be infrequent in a production environment. In contrast, traversal may occur frequently. Therefore, making it RCU-safe would be beneficial. Signed-off-by: Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
The root hasn't been removed from the root_list, so the list can't be NULL. However, if it had been removed, attempting to destroy it once more is not possible. Let's replace this with WARN_ON_ONCE() for clarity. Signed-off-by: Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
