Exactly because for_each_thread() in autogroup_move_group() can't see it
and update its -&gt;sched_task_group before _put() and possibly free().

So the exiting task needs another sched_move_task() before exit_notify()
and we need to re-introduce the PF_EXITING (or similar) check removed by
the previous change for another reason.

<title>sched/autogroup: Fix autogroup_move_group() to never skip sched_move_task()</title>

The PF_EXITING check in task_wants_autogroup() is no longer needed. Remove
it, but see the next patch.

However the comment is correct in that autogroup_move_group() must always
change task_group() for every thread so the sysctl_ check is very wrong;
we can race with cgroups and even sys_setsid() is not safe because a task
running with task_group() == ag-&gt;tg must participate in refcounting:

	int main(void)
	{
		int sctl = open("/proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled", O_WRONLY);

		assert(sctl &gt; 0);
		if (fork()) {
			wait(NULL); // destroy the child's ag/tg
			pause();
		}

		assert(pwrite(sctl, "1\n", 2, 0) == 2);
		assert(setsid() &gt; 0);
		if (fork())
			pause();

		kill(getppid(), SIGKILL);
		sleep(1);

		// The child has gone, the grandchild runs with kref == 1
		assert(pwrite(sctl, "0\n", 2, 0) == 2);
		assert(setsid() &gt; 0);

		// runs with the freed ag/tg
		for (;;)
			sleep(1);

		return 0;
	}

crashes the kernel. It doesn't really need sleep(1), it doesn't matter if
autogroup_move_group() actually frees the task_group or this happens later.

    support 64-bit DMA addressing when possible on sparc64. From Dave
    Tushar.

 2) Some signal frame validation checks are inverted on sparc32, fix
    from Andreas Larsson.

 3) Lockdep tables can get too large in some circumstances on sparc64,
    add a way to adjust the size a bit. From Babu Moger.

 1) Clear congestion control state when changing algorithms on an
    existing socket, from Florian Westphal.

 2) Fix register bit values in altr_tse_pcs portion of stmmac driver,
    from Jia Jie Ho.

 3) Fix PTP handling in stammc driver for GMAC4, from Giuseppe
    CAVALLARO.

 4) Fix udplite multicast delivery handling, it ignores the udp_table
    parameter passed into the lookups, from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

 5) Synchronize the space estimated by rtnl_vfinfo_size and the space
    actually used by rtnl_fill_vfinfo. From Sabrina Dubroca.

 6) Fix memory leak in fib_info when splitting nodes, from Alexander
    Duyck.

 7) If a driver does a napi_hash_del() explicitily and not via
    netif_napi_del(), it must perform RCU synchronization as needed. Fix
    this in virtio-net and bnxt drivers, from Eric Dumazet.

 8) Likewise, it is not necessary to invoke napi_hash_del() is we are
    also doing neif_napi_del() in the same code path. Remove such calls
    from be2net and cxgb4 drivers, also from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Don't allocate an ID in peernet2id_alloc() if the netns is dead,
    from WANG Cong.

10) Fix OF node and device struct leaks in of_mdio, from Johan Hovold.

11) We cannot cache routes in ip6_tunnel when using inherited traffic
    classes, from Paolo Abeni.

12) Fix several crashes and leaks in cpsw driver, from Johan Hovold.

13) Splice operations cannot use freezable blocking calls in AF_UNIX,
    from WANG Cong.

14) Link dump filtering by master device and kind support added an error
    in loop index updates during the dump if we actually do filter, fix
    from Zhang Shengju.

The token table passed into match_token() must be null-terminated, which
it currently is not in the perf's address filter string parser, as caught
by Vince's perf_fuzzer and KASAN.

It doesn't blow up otherwise because of the alignment padding of the table
to the next element in the .rodata, which is luck.

Fixing by adding a null-terminator to the token table.

<title>bpf: fix range arithmetic for bpf map access</title>

I made some invalid assumptions with BPF_AND and BPF_MOD that could result in
invalid accesses to bpf map entries.  Fix this up by doing a few things

1) Kill BPF_MOD support.  This doesn't actually get used by the compiler in real
life and just adds extra complexity.

2) Fix the logic for BPF_AND, don't allow AND of negative numbers and set the
minimum value to 0 for positive AND's.

3) Don't do operations on the ranges if they are set to the limits, as they are
by definition undefined, and allowing arithmetic operations on those values
could make them appear valid when they really aren't.

This fixes the testcase provided by Jann as well as a few other theoretical
problems.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "Alexei discovered a race condition in modules failing to load that can
  cause a ftrace check to trigger and disable ftrace.

  This is because of the way modules are registered to ftrace. Their
  functions are loaded in the ftrace function tables but set to
  "disabled" since they are still in the process of being loaded by the
  module. After the module is finished, it calls back into the ftrace
  infrastructure to enable it.

  Looking deeper into the locations that access all the functions in the
  table, I found more locations that should ignore the disabled ones"

<title>perf/core: Do not set cpuctx-&gt;cgrp for unscheduled cgroups</title>

Commit:

  db4a835601b7 ("perf/core: Set cgroup in CPU contexts for new cgroup events")

failed to verify that event-&gt;cgrp is actually the scheduled cgroup
in a CPU before setting cpuctx-&gt;cgrp. This patch fixes that.

Now that there is a different path for scheduled and unscheduled
cgroup, add a warning to catch when cpuctx-&gt;cgrp is still set after
the last cgroup event has been unsheduled.

To verify the bug:

  # Create 2 cgroups.
  mkdir /dev/cgroups/devices/g1
  mkdir /dev/cgroups/devices/g2

  # launch a task, bind it to a cpu and move it to g1
  CPU=2
  while :; do : ; done &amp;
  P=$!

  taskset -pc $CPU $P
  echo $P &gt; /dev/cgroups/devices/g1/tasks

  # monitor g2 (it runs no tasks) and observe output
  perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -C $CPU -G g2

  #           time             counts unit events
     1.000091408          7,579,527      cycles                    g2
     2.000350111      &lt;not counted&gt;      cycles                    g2
     3.000589181      &lt;not counted&gt;      cycles                    g2
     4.000771428      &lt;not counted&gt;      cycles                    g2

  # note first line that displays that a task run in g2, despite
  # g2 having no tasks. This is because cpuctx-&gt;cgrp was wrongly
  # set when context of new event was installed.
  # After applying the fix we obtain the right output:

  perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -C $CPU -G g2
  #           time             counts unit events
     1.000119615      &lt;not counted&gt;      cycles                    g2
     2.000389430      &lt;not counted&gt;      cycles                    g2
     3.000590962      &lt;not counted&gt;      cycles                    g2
