[ Upstream commit feffe5bb274dd3442080ef0e4053746091878799 ]

Commit 95158a89dd50 ("sched,rt: Use the full cpumask for balancing")
allows find_lock_lowest_rq() to pick a task with migration disabled.
The purpose of the commit is to push the current running task on the
CPU that has the migrate_disable() task away.

However, there is a race which allows a migrate_disable() task to be
migrated. Consider:

  CPU0                                    CPU1
  push_rt_task
    check is_migration_disabled(next_task)

                                          task not running and
                                          migration_disabled == 0

    find_lock_lowest_rq(next_task, rq);
      _double_lock_balance(this_rq, busiest);
        raw_spin_rq_unlock(this_rq);
        double_rq_lock(this_rq, busiest);
          &lt;&lt;wait for busiest rq&gt;&gt;
                                              &lt;wakeup&gt;
                                          task become running
                                          migrate_disable();
                                            &lt;context out&gt;
    deactivate_task(rq, next_task, 0);
    set_task_cpu(next_task, lowest_rq-&gt;cpu);
      WARN_ON_ONCE(is_migration_disabled(p));

[ Upstream commit 39afe5d6fc59237ff7738bf3ede5a8856822d59d ]

There are scenarios where non-affine wakeups are incorrectly counted as
affine wakeups by schedstats.

When wake_affine_idle() returns prev_cpu which doesn't equal to
nr_cpumask_bits, it will slip through the check: target == nr_cpumask_bits
in wake_affine() and be counted as if target == this_cpu in schedstats.

Replace target == nr_cpumask_bits with target != this_cpu to make sure
affine wakeups are accurately tallied.

<title>sched_getaffinity: don't assume 'cpumask_size()' is fully initialized</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 6015b1aca1a233379625385feb01dd014aca60b5 ]

The getaffinity() system call uses 'cpumask_size()' to decide how big
the CPU mask is - so far so good.  It is indeed the allocation size of a
cpumask.

But the code also assumes that the whole allocation is initialized
without actually doing so itself.  That's wrong, because we might have
fixed-size allocations (making copying and clearing more efficient), but
not all of it is then necessarily used if 'nr_cpu_ids' is smaller.

Having checked other users of 'cpumask_size()', they all seem to be ok,
either using it purely for the allocation size, or explicitly zeroing
the cpumask before using the size in bytes to copy it.

See for example the ublk_ctrl_get_queue_affinity() function that uses
the proper 'zalloc_cpumask_var()' to make sure that the whole mask is
cleared, whether the storage is on the stack or if it was an external
allocation.

Fix this by just zeroing the allocation before using it.  Do the same
for the compat version of sched_getaffinity(), which had the same logic.

Also, for consistency, make sched_getaffinity() use 'cpumask_bits()' to
access the bits.  For a cpumask_var_t, it ends up being a pointer to the
same data either way, but it's just a good idea to treat it like you
would a 'cpumask_t'.  The compat case already did that.

commit a53ce18cacb477dd0513c607f187d16f0fa96f71 upstream.

Commit 829c1651e9c4 ("sched/fair: sanitize vruntime of entity being placed")
fixes an overflowing bug, but ignore a case that se-&gt;exec_start is reset
after a migration.

For fixing this case, we delay the reset of se-&gt;exec_start after
placing the entity which se-&gt;exec_start to detect long sleeping task.

In order to take into account a possible divergence between the clock_task
of 2 rqs, we increase the threshold to around 104 days.

commit 829c1651e9c4a6f78398d3e67651cef9bb6b42cc upstream.

When a scheduling entity is placed onto cfs_rq, its vruntime is pulled
to the base level (around cfs_rq-&gt;min_vruntime), so that the entity
doesn't gain extra boost when placed backwards.

However, if the entity being placed wasn't executed for a long time, its
vruntime may get too far behind (e.g. while cfs_rq was executing a
low-weight hog), which can inverse the vruntime comparison due to s64
overflow.  This results in the entity being placed with its original
vruntime way forwards, so that it will effectively never get to the cpu.

To prevent that, ignore the vruntime of the entity being placed if it
didn't execute for much longer than the characteristic sheduler time
scale.

[ Upstream commit 7c4a5b89a0b5a57a64b601775b296abf77a9fe97 ]

Commit 326587b84078 ("sched: fix goto retry in pick_next_task_rt()")
removed any path which could make pick_next_rt_entity() return NULL.
However, BUG_ON(!rt_se) in _pick_next_task_rt() (the only caller of
pick_next_rt_entity()) still checks the error condition, which can
never happen, since list_entry() never returns NULL.
Remove the BUG_ON check, and instead emit a warning in the only
possible error condition here: the queue being empty which should
never happen.

Fixes: 326587b84078 ("sched: fix goto retry in pick_next_task_rt()")

[ Upstream commit 7c4a5b89a0b5a57a64b601775b296abf77a9fe97 ]

Commit 326587b84078 ("sched: fix goto retry in pick_next_task_rt()")
removed any path which could make pick_next_rt_entity() return NULL.
However, BUG_ON(!rt_se) in _pick_next_task_rt() (the only caller of
pick_next_rt_entity()) still checks the error condition, which can
never happen, since list_entry() never returns NULL.
Remove the BUG_ON check, and instead emit a warning in the only
possible error condition here: the queue being empty which should
never happen.

<title>sched/psi: Fix use-after-free in ep_remove_wait_queue()</title>

<content type='text'>
If a non-root cgroup gets removed when there is a thread that registered
trigger and is polling on a pressure file within the cgroup, the polling
waitqueue gets freed in the following path:

 do_rmdir
   cgroup_rmdir
     kernfs_drain_open_files
       cgroup_file_release
         cgroup_pressure_release
           psi_trigger_destroy

However, the polling thread still has a reference to the pressure file and
will access the freed waitqueue when the file is closed or upon exit:

 fput
   ep_eventpoll_release
     ep_free
       ep_remove_wait_queue
         remove_wait_queue

This results in use-after-free as pasted below.

The fundamental problem here is that cgroup_file_release() (and
consequently waitqueue's lifetime) is not tied to the file's real lifetime.
Using wake_up_pollfree() here might be less than ideal, but it is in line
with the comment at commit 42288cb44c4b ("wait: add wake_up_pollfree()")
since the waitqueue's lifetime is not tied to file's one and can be
considered as another special case. While this would be fixable by somehow
making cgroup_file_release() be tied to the fput(), it would require
sizable refactoring at cgroups or higher layer which might be more
justifiable if we identify more cases like this.

Since commit 8f9ea86fdf99 ("sched: Always preserve the user requested
cpumask"), a successful call to sched_setaffinity() should always save
the user requested cpu affinity mask in a task's user_cpus_ptr. However,
when the given cpu mask is the same as the current one, user_cpus_ptr
is not updated. Fix this by saving the user mask in this case too.

<title>sched/core: Fix NULL pointer access fault in sched_setaffinity() with non-SMP configs</title>

The kernel commit 9a5418bc48ba ("sched/core: Use kfree_rcu() in
do_set_cpus_allowed()") introduces a bug for kernels built with non-SMP
configs. Calling sched_setaffinity() on such a uniprocessor kernel will
cause cpumask_copy() to be called with a NULL pointer leading to general
protection fault. This is not really a problem in real use cases as
there aren't that many uniprocessor kernel configs in use and calling
sched_setaffinity() on such a uniprocessor system doesn't make sense.

Fix this problem by making sure cpumask_copy() will not be called in
such a case.
