[ Upstream commit 2125c0034c5dfd61171b494bd309bb7637bff6eb ]

Since commit 3a5a6d0c2b03("cpuset: don't nest cgroup_mutex inside
get_online_cpus()"), cpuset hotplug was done asynchronously via a work
function. This is to avoid recursive locking of cgroup_mutex.

Since then, the cgroup locking scheme has changed quite a bit. A
cpuset_mutex was introduced to protect cpuset specific operations.
The cpuset_mutex is then replaced by a cpuset_rwsem. With commit
d74b27d63a8b ("cgroup/cpuset: Change cpuset_rwsem and hotplug lock
order"), cpu_hotplug_lock is acquired before cpuset_rwsem. Later on,
cpuset_rwsem is reverted back to cpuset_mutex. All these locking changes
allow the hotplug code to call into cpuset core directly.

The following commits were also merged due to the asynchronous nature
of cpuset hotplug processing.

  - commit b22afcdf04c9 ("cpu/hotplug: Cure the cpusets trainwreck")
  - commit 50e76632339d ("sched/cpuset/pm: Fix cpuset vs. suspend-resume
    bugs")
  - commit 28b89b9e6f7b ("cpuset: handle race between CPU hotplug and
    cpuset_hotplug_work")

Clean up all these bandages by making cpuset hotplug
processing synchronous again with the exception that the call to
cgroup_transfer_tasks() to transfer tasks out of an empty cgroup v1
cpuset, if necessary, will still be done via a work function due to the
existing cgroup_mutex -&gt; cpu_hotplug_lock dependency. It is possible
to reverse that dependency, but that will require updating a number of
different cgroup controllers. This special hotplug code path should be
rarely taken anyway.

As all the cpuset states will be updated by the end of the hotplug
operation, we can revert most the above commits except commit
50e76632339d ("sched/cpuset/pm: Fix cpuset vs. suspend-resume bugs")
which is partially reverted.  Also removing some cpus_read_lock trylock
attempts in the cpuset partition code as they are no longer necessary
since the cpu_hotplug_lock is now held for the whole duration of the
cpuset hotplug code path.

[ Upstream commit a1fd0b9d751f840df23ef0e75b691fc00cfd4743 ]

Change relax_domain_level checks so that it would be possible
to include or exclude all domains from newidle balancing.

This matches the behavior described in the documentation:

  -1   no request. use system default or follow request of others.
   0   no search.
   1   search siblings (hyperthreads in a core).

"2" enables levels 0 and 1, level_max excludes the last (level_max)
level, and level_max+1 includes all levels.

The update_cpumask(), checks for newly requested cpumask by calling
validate_change(), which returns an error on passing an invalid set
of cpu(s). Independent of the error returned, update_cpumask() always
returns zero, suppressing the error and returning success to the user
on writing an invalid cpu range for a cpuset. Fix it by returning
retval instead, which is returned by validate_change().

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()
                        returns void
                kernfs_path()
                        sysfs_warn_dup()

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()
                        returns void
                kernfs_path()
                        sysfs_warn_dup()
                                return value ignored
                        cgroup_path()
                                blkg_path()
                                        bfq_bic_update_cgroup()
                                                return value ignored
                                TRACE_IOCG_PATH()

<title>cgroup/cpuset: Include isolated cpuset CPUs in cpu_is_isolated() check</title>

Currently, the cpu_is_isolated() function checks only the statically
isolated CPUs specified via the "isolcpus" and "nohz_full" kernel
command line options. This function is used by vmstat and memcg to
reduce interference with isolated CPUs by not doing stat flushing
or scheduling works on those CPUs.

Workloads running on isolated CPUs within isolated cpuset
partitions should receive the same treatment to reduce unnecessary
interference. This patch introduces a new cpuset_cpu_is_isolated()
function to be called by cpu_is_isolated() so that the set of dynamically
created cpuset isolated CPUs will be included in the check.

Assuming that testing a bit in a cpumask is atomic, no synchronization
primitive is currently used to synchronize access to the cpuset's
isolated_cpus mask.

The root-only cpuset.cpus.isolated control file shows the current set
of isolated CPUs in isolated partitions. This control file is currently
exposed only with the cgroup_debug boot command line option which also
adds the ".__DEBUG__." prefix. This is actually a useful control file if
users want to find out which CPUs are currently in an isolated state by
the cpuset controller. Remove CFTYPE_DEBUG flag for this control file and
make it available by default without any prefix.

The test_cpuset_prs.sh test script and the cgroup-v2.rst documentation
file are also updated accordingly. Minor code change is also made in
test_cpuset_prs.sh to avoid false test failure when running on debug
kernel.
