[ Upstream commit 57b56d16800e8961278ecff0dc755d46c4575092 ]

The writing of css-&gt;cgroup associated with the cgroup root in
rebind_subsystems() is currently protected only by cgroup_mutex.
However, the reading of css-&gt;cgroup in both proc_cpuset_show() and
proc_cgroup_show() is protected just by css_set_lock. That makes the
readers susceptible to racing problems like data tearing or caching.
It is also a problem that can be reported by KCSAN.

This can be fixed by using READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() to access
css-&gt;cgroup. Alternatively, the writing of css-&gt;cgroup can be moved
under css_set_lock as well which is done by this patch.

[ Upstream commit d24f05987ce8bf61e62d86fedbe47523dc5c3393 ]

Use css directly instead of dereferencing it from &amp;cgroup-&gt;self, while
adding the cgroup v2 cft base and psi files in css_populate_dir(). Both
points to the same css, when css-&gt;ss is NULL, this avoids extra deferences
and makes code consistent in usage across the function.

commit d23b5c577715892c87533b13923306acc6243f93 upstream.

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.

<title>cgroup/cpuset: Prevent UAF in proc_cpuset_show()</title>

[ Upstream commit 1be59c97c83ccd67a519d8a49486b3a8a73ca28a ]

An UAF can happen when /proc/cpuset is read as reported in [1].

This can be reproduced by the following methods:
1.add an mdelay(1000) before acquiring the cgroup_lock In the
 cgroup_path_ns function.
2.$cat /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/cpuset   repeatly.
3.$mount -t cgroup -o cpuset cpuset /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/
$umount /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/   repeatly.

The race that cause this bug can be shown as below:

(umount)		|	(cat /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/cpuset)
css_release		|	proc_cpuset_show
css_release_work_fn	|	css = task_get_css(tsk, cpuset_cgrp_id);
css_free_rwork_fn	|	cgroup_path_ns(css-&gt;cgroup, ...);
cgroup_destroy_root	|	mutex_lock(&amp;cgroup_mutex);
rebind_subsystems	|
cgroup_free_root 	|
			|	// cgrp was freed, UAF
			|	cgroup_path_ns_locked(cgrp,..);

When the cpuset is initialized, the root node top_cpuset.css.cgrp
will point to &amp;cgrp_dfl_root.cgrp. In cgroup v1, the mount operation will
allocate cgroup_root, and top_cpuset.css.cgrp will point to the allocated
&amp;cgroup_root.cgrp. When the umount operation is executed,
top_cpuset.css.cgrp will be rebound to &amp;cgrp_dfl_root.cgrp.

The problem is that when rebinding to cgrp_dfl_root, there are cases
where the cgroup_root allocated by setting up the root for cgroup v1
is cached. This could lead to a Use-After-Free (UAF) if it is
subsequently freed. The descendant cgroups of cgroup v1 can only be
freed after the css is released. However, the css of the root will never
be released, yet the cgroup_root should be freed when it is unmounted.
This means that obtaining a reference to the css of the root does
not guarantee that css.cgrp-&gt;root will not be freed.

Fix this problem by using rcu_read_lock in proc_cpuset_show().
As cgroup_root is kfree_rcu after commit d23b5c577715
("cgroup: Make operations on the cgroup root_list RCU safe"),
css-&gt;cgroup won't be freed during the critical section.
To call cgroup_path_ns_locked, css_set_lock is needed, so it is safe to
replace task_get_css with task_css.

<title>kernfs: Convert kernfs_path_from_node_locked() from strlcpy() to strscpy()</title>

[ Upstream commit ff6d413b0b59466e5acf2e42f294b1842ae130a1 ]

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:

[ 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.

commit 25125a4762835d62ba1e540c1351d447fc1f6c7c upstream.

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().

commit cff5f49d433fcd0063c8be7dd08fa5bf190c6c37 upstream.

__thaw_task() was recently updated to warn if the task being thawed was
part of a freezer cgroup that is still currently freezing:

	void __thaw_task(struct task_struct *p)
	{
	...
		if (WARN_ON_ONCE(freezing(p)))
			goto unlock;

This has exposed a bug in cgroup1 freezing where when CGROUP_FROZEN is
asserted, the CGROUP_FREEZING bits are not also cleared at the same
time. Meaning, when a cgroup is marked FROZEN it continues to be marked
FREEZING as well. This causes the WARNING to trigger, because
cgroup_freezing() thinks the cgroup is still freezing.

There are two ways to fix this:

1. Whenever FROZEN is set, clear FREEZING for the cgroup and all
children cgroups.
2. Update cgroup_freezing() to also verify that FROZEN is not set.

This patch implements option (2), since it's smaller and more
straightforward.

<title>sched: psi: fix unprivileged polling against cgroups</title>

commit 8b39d20eceeda6c4eb23df1497f9ed2fffdc8f69 upstream.

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.

[ Upstream commit 6fcdb0183bf024a70abccb0439321c25891c708d ]

Commit a86ce68078b2 ("cgroup/cpuset: Extract out CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE
&amp; CS_SCHED_LOAD_BALANCE handling") adds a new helper function
update_partition_sd_lb() to update the load balance state of the
cpuset. However the new load balance is determined by just looking at
whether the cpuset is a valid isolated partition root or not.  That is
not enough if the cpuset is not a valid partition root but its parent
is in the isolated state (load balance off). Update the function to
set the new state to be the same as its parent in this case like what
has been done in commit c8c926200c55 ("cgroup/cpuset: Inherit parent's
load balance state in v2").
