commit c596687a00 upstream.
While adding handling for dying task group leaders c03cd7738a
("cgroup: Include dying leaders with live threads in PROCS
iterations") added an inverted cset skip condition to
css_task_iter_advance_css_set(). It should skip cset if it's
completely empty but was incorrectly testing for the inverse condition
for the dying_tasks list. Fix it.

commit cee0c33c54 upstream.
b636fd38dc ("cgroup: Implement css_task_iter_skip()") introduced
css_task_iter_skip() which is used to fix task iterations skipping
dying threadgroup leaders with live threads. Skipping is implemented
as a subportion of full advancing but css_task_iter_next() forgot to
fully advance a skipped iterator before determining the next task to
visit causing it to return invalid task pointers.
Fix it by making css_task_iter_next() fully advance the iterator if it
has been skipped since the previous iteration.

commit c03cd7738a upstream.
CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS currently iterates live group leaders; however,
this means that a process with dying leader and live threads will be
skipped. IOW, cgroup.procs might be empty while cgroup.threads isn't,
which is confusing to say the least.
Fix it by making cset track dying tasks and include dying leaders with
live threads in PROCS iteration.

commit b636fd38dc upstream.
When a task is moved out of a cset, task iterators pointing to the
task are advanced using the normal css_task_iter_advance() call. This
is fine but we'll be tracking dying tasks on csets and thus moving
tasks from cset->tasks to (to be added) cset->dying_tasks. When we
remove a task from cset->tasks, if we advance the iterators, they may
move over to the next cset before we had the chance to add the task
back on the dying list, which can allow the task to escape iteration.
This patch separates out skipping from advancing. Skipping only moves
the affected iterators to the next pointer rather than fully advancing
it and the following advancing will recognize that the cursor has
already been moved forward and do the rest of advancing. This ensures
that when a task moves from one list to another in its cset, as long
as it moves in the right direction, it's always visible to iteration.
This doesn't cause any visible behavior changes.

[ Upstream commit 4dcabece4c ]
The number of descendant cgroups and the number of dying
descendant cgroups are currently synchronized using the cgroup_mutex.
The number of descendant cgroups will be required by the cgroup v2
freezer, which will use it to determine if a cgroup is frozen
(depending on total number of descendants and number of frozen
descendants). It's not always acceptable to grab the cgroup_mutex,
especially from quite hot paths (e.g. exit()).
To avoid this, let's additionally synchronize these counters using
the css_set_lock.
So, it's safe to read these counters with either cgroup_mutex or
css_set_lock locked, and for changing both locks should be acquired.

[ Upstream commit 51bee5abea ]
The only user of cgroup_subsys->free() callback is pids_cgrp_subsys which
needs pids_free() to uncharge the pid.
However, ->free() is called from __put_task_struct()->cgroup_free() and this
is too late. Even the trivial program which does
for (;;) {
int pid = fork();
assert(pid >= 0);
if (pid)
wait(NULL);
else
exit(0);
}
can run out of limits because release_task()->call_rcu(delayed_put_task_struct)
implies an RCU gp after the task/pid goes away and before the final put().
Test-case:
mkdir -p /tmp/CG
mount -t cgroup2 none /tmp/CG
echo '+pids' > /tmp/CG/cgroup.subtree_control
mkdir /tmp/CG/PID
echo 2 > /tmp/CG/PID/pids.max
perl -e 'while ($p = fork) { wait; } $p // die "fork failed: $!\n"' &
echo $! > /tmp/CG/PID/cgroup.procs
Without this patch the forking process fails soon after migration.
Rename cgroup_subsys->free() to cgroup_subsys->release() and move the callsite
into the new helper, cgroup_release(), called by release_task() which actually
frees the pid(s).

commit 399504e21a upstream.
same story as with last May fixes in sysfs (7b745a4e40
"unfuck sysfs_mount()"); new_sb is left uninitialized
in case of early errors in kernfs_mount_ns() and papering
over it by treating any error from kernfs_mount_ns() as
equivalent to !new_ns ends up conflating the cases when
objects had never been transferred to a superblock with
ones when that has happened and resulting new superblock
had been dropped. Easily fixed (same way as in sysfs
case). Additionally, there's a superblock leak on
kernfs_node_dentry() failure *and* a dentry leak inside
kernfs_node_dentry() itself - the latter on probably
impossible errors, but the former not impossible to trigger
(as the matter of fact, injecting allocation failures
at that point *does* trigger it).

commit e9d81a1bc2 upstream.
CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS implements process-only iteration by making
css_task_iter_advance() skip tasks which aren't threadgroup leaders;
however, when an iteration is started css_task_iter_start() calls the
inner helper function css_task_iter_advance_css_set() instead of
css_task_iter_advance(). As the helper doesn't have the skip logic,
when the first task to visit is a non-leader thread, it doesn't get
skipped correctly as shown in the following example.
# ps -L 2030
PID LWP TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
2030 2030 pts/0 Sl+ 0:00 ./test-thread
2030 2031 pts/0 Sl+ 0:00 ./test-thread

# echo 2030 > /sys/fs/cgroup/x/a/b/cgroup.threads
# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/x/cgroup.procs
2031
2030
The last read of cgroup.procs is incorrectly showing non-leader 2031
in cgroup.procs output.
This can be fixed by updating css_task_iter_advance() to handle the
first advance and css_task_iters_tart() to call
css_task_iter_advance() instead of the inner helper. After the fix,
the same commands result in the following (correct) result:
# ps -L 2062

commit 479adb89a9 upstream.
A cgroup which is already a threaded domain may be converted into a
threaded cgroup if the prerequisite conditions are met. When this
happens, all threaded descendant should also have their ->dom_cgrp
updated to the new threaded domain cgroup. Unfortunately, this
propagation was missing leading to the following failure.
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup/unified
# cat cgroup.subtree_control # show that no controllers are enabled
# mkdir -p mycgrp/a/b/c
# echo threaded > mycgrp/a/b/cgroup.type
At this point, the hierarchy looks as follows:
mycgrp [d]
a [dt]
b [t]
c [inv]
Now let's make node "a" threaded (and thus "mycgrp" s made "domain threaded"):
# echo threaded > mycgrp/a/cgroup.type
By this point, we now have a hierarchy that looks as follows:
mycgrp [dt]
a [t]
b [t]
c [inv]
But, when we try to convert the node "c" from "domain invalid" to
"threaded", we get ENOTSUP on the write():
# echo threaded > mycgrp/a/b/c/cgroup.type
sh: echo: write error: Operation not supported
This patch fixes the problem by
* Moving the opencoded ->dom_cgrp save and restoration in
cgroup_enable_threaded() into cgroup_{save|restore}_control() so
that mulitple cgroups can be handled.
* Updating all threaded descendants' ->dom_cgrp to point to the new
dom_cgrp when enabling threaded mode.

commit d1897c9538 upstream.
A domain cgroup isn't allowed to be turned threaded if its subtree is
populated or domain controllers are enabled. cgroup_enable_threaded()
depended on cgroup_can_be_thread_root() test to enforce this rule. A
parent which has populated domain descendants or have domain
controllers enabled can't become a thread root, so the above rules are
enforced automatically.
However, for the root cgroup which can host mixed domain and threaded
children, cgroup_can_be_thread_root() doesn't check any of those
conditions and thus first level cgroups ends up escaping those rules.
This patch fixes the bug by adding explicit checks for those rules in
cgroup_enable_threaded().

The cgroup_taskset structure within the larger cgroup_mgctx structure
is supposed to be used once and then discarded. That is not really the
case in the hotplug code path:
cpuset_hotplug_workfn()
- cgroup_transfer_tasks()
- cgroup_migrate()
- cgroup_migrate_add_task()
- cgroup_migrate_execute()
In this case, the cgroup_migrate() function is called multiple time
with the same cgroup_mgctx structure to transfer the tasks from
one cgroup to another one-by-one. The second time cgroup_migrate()
is called, the cgroup_taskset will be in an incorrect state and so
may cause the system to panic. For example,

Commit fa06235b8e ("cgroup: reset css on destruction") caused
css_reset callback to be called from the offlining path. Although it
solves the problem mentioned in the commit description ("For instance,
memory cgroup needs to reset memory.low, otherwise pages charged to a
dead cgroup might never get reclaimed."), generally speaking, it's not
correct.
An offline cgroup can still be a resource domain, and we shouldn't grant
it more resources than it had before deletion.
For instance, if an offline memory cgroup has dirty pages, we should
still imply i/o limits during writeback.
The css_reset callback is designed to return the cgroup state into the
original state, that means reset all limits and counters. It's
spomething different from the offlining, and we shouldn't use it from
the offlining path. Instead, we should adjust necessary settings from
the per-controller css_offline callbacks (e.g. reset memory.low).

A cgroup can consume resources even after being deleted by a user.
For example, writing back dirty pages should be accounted and
limited, despite the corresponding cgroup might contain no processes
and being deleted by a user.
In the current implementation a cgroup can remain in such "dying" state
for an undefined amount of time. For instance, if a memory cgroup
contains a pge, mlocked by a process belonging to an other cgroup.
Although the lifecycle of a dying cgroup is out of user's control,
it's important to have some insight of what's going on under the hood.
In particular, it's handy to have a counter which will allow
to detect css leaks.
To solve this problem, add a cgroup.stat interface to
the base cgroup control files with the following metrics:
nr_descendants total number of visible descendant cgroups
nr_dying_descendants total number of dying descendant cgroups

Creating cgroup hierearchies of unreasonable size can affect
overall system performance. A user might want to limit the
size of cgroup hierarchy. This is especially important if a user
is delegating some cgroup sub-tree.
To address this issue, introduce an ability to control
the size of cgroup hierarchy.
The cgroup.max.descendants control file allows to set the maximum
allowed number of descendant cgroups.
The cgroup.max.depth file controls the maximum depth of the cgroup
tree. Both are single value r/w files, with "max" default value.
The control files exist on each hierarchy level (including root).
When a new cgroup is created, we check the total descendants
and depth limits on each level, and if none of them are exceeded,
a new cgroup is created.
Only alive cgroups are counted, removed (dying) cgroups are
ignored.

Now we have the facilities to implement exportfs operations. The idea is
cgroup can export the fhandle info to userspace, then userspace uses
fhandle to find the cgroup name. Another example is userspace can get
fhandle for a cgroup and BPF uses the fhandle to filter info for the
cgroup.

Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
Suggested-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com>
cgroup_enable_threaded() checks that the cgroup doesn't have any tasks
or children and fails the operation if so. This test is unnecessary
because the first part is already checked by
cgroup_can_be_thread_root() and the latter is unnecessary. The latter
actually cause a behavioral oddity. Please consider the following
hierarchy. All cgroups are domains.
A
/ \
B C
\
D
If B is made threaded, C and D becomes invalid domains. Due to the no
children restriction, threaded mode can't be enabled on C. For C and
D, the only thing the user can do is removal.
There is no reason for this restriction. Remove it.

This patch implements cgroup v2 thread support. The goal of the
thread mode is supporting hierarchical accounting and control at
thread granularity while staying inside the resource domain model
which allows coordination across different resource controllers and
handling of anonymous resource consumptions.
A cgroup is always created as a domain and can be made threaded by
writing to the "cgroup.type" file. When a cgroup becomes threaded, it
becomes a member of a threaded subtree which is anchored at the
closest ancestor which isn't threaded.
The threads of the processes which are in a threaded subtree can be
placed anywhere without being restricted by process granularity or
no-internal-process constraint. Note that the threads aren't allowed
to escape to a different threaded subtree. To be used inside a
threaded subtree, a controller should explicitly support threaded mode
and be able to handle internal competition in the way which is
appropriate for the resource.
The root of a threaded subtree, the nearest ancestor which isn't
threaded, is called the threaded domain and serves as the resource
domain for the whole subtree. This is the last cgroup where domain
controllers are operational and where all the domain-level resource
consumptions in the subtree are accounted. This allows threaded
controllers to operate at thread granularity when requested while
staying inside the scope of system-level resource distribution.
As the root cgroup is exempt from the no-internal-process constraint,
it can serve as both a threaded domain and a parent to normal cgroups,
so, unlike non-root cgroups, the root cgroup can have both domain and
threaded children.
Internally, in a threaded subtree, each css_set has its ->dom_cset
pointing to a matching css_set which belongs to the threaded domain.
This ensures that thread root level cgroup_subsys_state for all
threaded controllers are readily accessible for domain-level
operations.
This patch enables threaded mode for the pids and perf_events
controllers. Neither has to worry about domain-level resource
consumptions and it's enough to simply set the flag.
For more details on the interface and behavior of the thread mode,
please refer to the section 2-2-2 in Documentation/cgroup-v2.txt added
by this patch.
v5: - Dropped silly no-op ->dom_cgrp init from cgroup_create().
Spotted by Waiman.
- Documentation updated as suggested by Waiman.
- cgroup.type content slightly reformatted.
- Mark the debug controller threaded.
v4: - Updated to the general idea of marking specific cgroups
domain/threaded as suggested by PeterZ.
v3: - Dropped "join" and always make mixed children join the parent's
threaded subtree.
v2: - After discussions with Waiman, support for mixed thread mode is
added. This should address the issue that Peter pointed out
where any nesting should be avoided for thread subtrees while
coexisting with other domain cgroups.
- Enabling / disabling thread mode now piggy backs on the existing
control mask update mechanism.
- Bug fixes and cleanup.

cgroup v2 is in the process of growing thread granularity support.
Once thread mode is enabled, the root cgroup of the subtree serves as
the dom_cgrp to which the processes of the subtree conceptually belong
and domain-level resource consumptions not tied to any specific task
are charged. In the subtree, threads won't be subject to process
granularity or no-internal-task constraint and can be distributed
arbitrarily across the subtree.
This patch implements a new task iterator flag CSS_TASK_ITER_THREADED,
which, when used on a dom_cgrp, makes the iteration include the tasks
on all the associated threaded css_sets. "cgroup.procs" read path is
updated to use it so that reading the file on a proc_cgrp lists all
processes. This will also be used by controller implementations which
need to walk processes or tasks at the resource domain level.
Task iteration is implemented nested in css_set iteration. If
CSS_TASK_ITER_THREADED is specified, after walking tasks of each
!threaded css_set, all the associated threaded css_sets are visited
before moving onto the next !threaded css_set.
v2: ->cur_pcset renamed to ->cur_dcset. Updated for the new
enable-threaded-per-cgroup behavior.

cgroup v2 is in the process of growing thread granularity support. A
threaded subtree is composed of a thread root and threaded cgroups
which are proper members of the subtree.
The root cgroup of the subtree serves as the domain cgroup to which
the processes (as opposed to threads / tasks) of the subtree
conceptually belong and domain-level resource consumptions not tied to
any specific task are charged. Inside the subtree, threads won't be
subject to process granularity or no-internal-task constraint and can
be distributed arbitrarily across the subtree.
This patch introduces cgroup->dom_cgrp along with threaded css_set
handling.
* cgroup->dom_cgrp points to self for normal and thread roots. For
proper thread subtree members, points to the dom_cgrp (the thread
root).
* css_set->dom_cset points to self if for normal and thread roots. If
threaded, points to the css_set which belongs to the cgrp->dom_cgrp.
The dom_cgrp serves as the resource domain and keeps the matching
csses available. The dom_cset holds those csses and makes them
easily accessible.
* All threaded csets are linked on their dom_csets to enable iteration
of all threaded tasks.
* cgroup->nr_threaded_children keeps track of the number of threaded
children.
This patch adds the above but doesn't actually use them yet. The
following patches will build on top.
v4: ->nr_threaded_children added.
v3: ->proc_cgrp/cset renamed to ->dom_cgrp/cset. Updated for the new
enable-threaded-per-cgroup behavior.
v2: Added cgroup_is_threaded() helper.

css_task_iter currently always walks all tasks. With the scheduled
cgroup v2 thread support, the iterator would need to handle multiple
types of iteration. As a preparation, add @flags to
css_task_iter_start() and implement CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS. If the flag
is not specified, it walks all tasks as before. When asserted, the
iterator only walks the group leaders.
For now, the only user of the flag is cgroup v2 "cgroup.procs" file
which no longer needs to skip non-leader tasks in cgroup_procs_next().
Note that cgroup v1 "cgroup.procs" can't use the group leader walk as
v1 "cgroup.procs" doesn't mean "list all thread group leaders in the
cgroup" but "list all thread group id's with any threads in the
cgroup".
While at it, update cgroup_procs_show() to use task_pid_vnr() instead
of task_tgid_vnr(). As the iteration guarantees that the function
only sees group leaders, this doesn't change the output and will allow
sharing the function for thread iteration.

Currently, writes "cgroup.procs" and "cgroup.tasks" files are all
handled by __cgroup_procs_write() on both v1 and v2. This patch
reoragnizes the write path so that there are common helper functions
that different write paths use.
While this somewhat increases LOC, the different paths are no longer
intertwined and each path has more flexibility to implement different
behaviors which will be necessary for the planned v2 thread support.

On subsystem registration, css_populate_dir() is not called on the new
root css, so the interface files for the subsystem on cgrp_dfl_root
aren't created on registration. This is a residue from the days when
cgrp_dfl_root was used only as the parking spot for unused subsystems,
which no longer is true as it's used as the root for cgroup2.
This is often fine as later operations tend to create them as a part
of mount (cgroup1) or subtree_control operations (cgroup2); however,
it's not difficult to mount cgroup2 with the controller interface
files missing as Waiman found out.
Fix it by invoking css_populate_dir() on the root css on subsys

Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1497266622.15415.39.camel@abdul.in.ibm.com
Currently, cgroup only supports delegation to !root users and cgroup
namespaces don't get any special treatments. This limits the
usefulness of cgroup namespaces as they by themselves can't be safe
delegation boundaries. A process inside a cgroup can change the
resource control knobs of the parent in the namespace root and may
move processes in and out of the namespace if cgroups outside its
namespace are visible somehow.
This patch adds a new mount option "nsdelegate" which makes cgroup
namespaces delegation boundaries. If set, cgroup behaves as if write
permission based delegation took place at namespace boundaries -
writes to the resource control knobs from the namespace root are
denied and migration crossing the namespace boundary aren't allowed
from inside the namespace.
This allows cgroup namespace to function as a delegation boundary by
itself.
v2: Silently ignore nsdelegate specified on !init mounts.

The reference count in the css_set data structure was used as a
proxy of the number of tasks attached to that css_set. However, that
count is actually not an accurate measure especially with thread mode

track of the actual task count. This new variable is protected by
the css_set_lock. Functions that require the actual task count are
updated to use the new variable.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
"This contains fixes for two long standing subtle bugs:
- kthread_bind() on a new kthread binds it to specific CPUs and
prevents userland from messing with the affinity or cgroup
membership. Unfortunately, for cgroup membership, there's a window
between kthread creation and kthread_bind*() invocation where the
kthread can be moved into a non-root cgroup by userland.
Depending on what controllers are in effect, this can assign the
kthread unexpected attributes. For example, in the reported case,
workqueue workers ended up in a non-root cpuset cgroups and had
their CPU affinities overridden. This broke workqueue invariants
and led to workqueue stalls.
Fixed by closing the window between kthread creation and
kthread_bind() as suggested by Oleg.

Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between

running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator
then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its

In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one
that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When
altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is
fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical,
kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland
and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being
migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and
many other things.
Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the
PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win
the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put
the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of
problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation.
This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate
all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu
workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with
incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes
stalling workqueue execution.
This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to
be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making
every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration
disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes
initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread
should stay in the root cgroup.
It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I
couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a
new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if
userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either
has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat,
so it's unlikely that this would break anything.
v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit
field suggested by Oleg.
