Pull per signal_struct coredumps from Eric Biederman: "Current coredumps are mixed up with the exit code, the signal handling code, and the ptrace code making coredumps much more complicated than necessary and difficult to follow. This series of changes starts with ptrace_stop and cleans it up, making it easier to follow what is happening in ptrace_stop. Then cleans up the exec interactions with coredumps. Then cleans up the coredump interactions with exit. Finally the coredump interactions with the signal handling code is cleaned up. The first and last changes are bug fixes for minor bugs. I believe the fact that vfork followed by execve can kill the process the called vfork if exec fails is sufficient justification to change the userspace visible behavior. In previous discussions some of these changes were organized differently and individually appeared to make the code base worse. As currently written I believe they all stand on their own as cleanups and bug fixes. Which means that even if the worst should happen and the last change needs to be reverted for some unimaginable reason, the code base will still be improved. If the worst does not happen there are a more cleanups that can be made. Signals that generate coredumps can easily become eligible for short circuit delivery in complete_signal. The entire rendezvous for generating a coredump can move into get_signal. The function force_sig_info_to_task be written in a way that does not modify the signal handling state of the target task (because coredumps are eligible for short circuit delivery). Many of these future cleanups can be done another way but nothing so cleanly as if coredumps become per signal_struct" * 'per_signal_struct_coredumps-for-v5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: coredump: Limit coredumps to a single thread group coredump: Don't perform any cleanups before dumping core exit: Factor coredump_exit_mm out of exit_mm exec: Check for a pending fatal signal instead of core_state ptrace: Remove the unnecessary arguments from arch_ptrace_stop signal: Remove the bogus sigkill_pending in ptrace_stop
copy_process currently copies task_struct.posix_cputimers_work as-is. If a
timer interrupt arrives while handling clone and before dup_task_struct
completes then the child task will have:
1. posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true
2. posix_cputimers_work.work queued.
copy_process clears task_struct.task_works, so (2) will have no effect and
posix_cpu_timers_work will never run (not to mention it doesn't make sense
for two tasks to share a common linked list).
Since posix_cpu_timers_work never runs, posix_cputimers_work.scheduled is
never cleared. Since scheduled is set, future timer interrupts will skip
scheduling work, with the ultimate result that the task will never receive
timer expirations.
Together, the complete flow is:
1. Task 1 calls clone(), enters kernel.
2. Timer interrupt fires, schedules task work on Task 1.
2a. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true
2b. task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.work added to
task_struct.task_works.
3. dup_task_struct() copies Task 1 to Task 2.
4. copy_process() clears task_struct.task_works for Task 2.
5. Future timer interrupts on Task 2 see
task_struct.posix_cputimers_work.scheduled = true and skip scheduling
work.
Fix this by explicitly clearing contents of task_struct.posix_cputimers_work
in copy_process(). This was never meant to be shared or inherited across
tasks in the first place.

Pull scheduler updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Revert the printk format based wchan() symbol resolution as it can leak the raw value in case that the symbol is not resolvable. - Make wchan() more robust and work with all kind of unwinders by enforcing that the task stays blocked while unwinding is in progress. - Prevent sched_fork() from accessing an invalid sched_task_group - Improve asymmetric packing logic - Extend scheduler statistics to RT and DL scheduling classes and add statistics for bandwith burst to the SCHED_FAIR class. - Properly account SCHED_IDLE entities - Prevent a potential deadlock when initial priority is assigned to a newly created kthread. A recent change to plug a race between cpuset and __sched_setscheduler() introduced a new lock dependency which is now triggered. Break the lock dependency chain by moving the priority assignment to the thread function. - Fix the idle time reporting in /proc/uptime for NOHZ enabled systems. - Improve idle balancing in general and especially for NOHZ enabled systems. - Provide proper interfaces for live patching so it does not have to fiddle with scheduler internals. - Add cluster aware scheduling support. - A small set of tweaks for RT (irqwork, wait_task_inactive(), various scheduler options and delaying mmdrop) - The usual small tweaks and improvements all over the place * tag 'sched-core-2021-11-01' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (69 commits) sched/fair: Cleanup newidle_balance sched/fair: Remove sysctl_sched_migration_cost condition sched/fair: Wait before decaying max_newidle_lb_cost sched/fair: Skip update_blocked_averages if we are defering load balance sched/fair: Account update_blocked_averages in newidle_balance cost x86: Fix __get_wchan() for !STACKTRACE sched,x86: Fix L2 cache mask sched/core: Remove rq_relock() sched: Improve wake_up_all_idle_cpus() take #2 irq_work: Also rcuwait for !IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ on PREEMPT_RT irq_work: Handle some irq_work in a per-CPU thread on PREEMPT_RT irq_work: Allow irq_work_sync() to sleep if irq_work() no IRQ support. sched/rt: Annotate the RT balancing logic irqwork as IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ sched: Add cluster scheduler level for x86 sched: Add cluster scheduler level in core and related Kconfig for ARM64 topology: Represent clusters of CPUs within a die sched: Disable -Wunused-but-set-variable sched: Add wrapper for get_wchan() to keep task blocked x86: Fix get_wchan() to support the ORC unwinder proc: Use task_is_running() for wchan in /proc/$pid/stat ...

There is a small race between copy_process() and sched_fork()
where child->sched_task_group point to an already freed pointer.
parent doing fork() | someone moving the parent
| to another cgroup

parent move to another cgroup,
and free the old cgroup. <2>
+ sched_fork()
+ __set_task_cpu()<3>
+ task_fork_fair()
+ sched_slice()<4>
In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and
cause panic as shown above:
(1) parent copy its sched_task_group to child at <1>;
(2) someone move the parent to another cgroup and free the old
cgroup at <2>;
(3) the sched_task_group and cfs_rq that belong to the old cgroup
will be accessed at <3> and <4>, which cause a panic:

Between cgroup_can_fork() and cgroup_post_fork(), the cgroup
membership and thus sched_task_group can't change. So update child's
sched_task_group at sched_post_fork() and move task_fork() and
__set_task_cpu() (where accees the sched_task_group) from sched_fork()
to sched_post_fork().

Today when a signal is delivered with a handler of SIG_DFL whose
default behavior is to generate a core dump not only that process but
every process that shares the mm is killed.
In the case of vfork this looks like a real world problem. Consider
the following well defined sequence.
if (vfork() == 0) {
execve(...);
_exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
If a signal that generates a core dump is received after vfork but
before the execve changes the mm the process that called vfork will
also be killed (as the mm is shared).
Similarly if the execve fails after the point of no return the kernel
delivers SIGSEGV which will kill both the exec'ing process and because
the mm is shared the process that called vfork as well.
As far as I can tell this behavior is a violation of people's
reasonable expectations, POSIX, and is unnecessarily fragile when the
system is low on memory.
Solve this by making a userspace visible change to only kill a single
process/thread group. This is possible because Jann Horn recently
modified[1] the coredump code so that the mm can safely be modified
while the coredump is happening. With LinuxThreads long gone I don't
expect anyone to have a notice this behavior change in practice.
To accomplish this move the core_state pointer from mm_struct to
signal_struct, which allows different thread groups to coredump
simultatenously.
In zap_threads remove the work to kill anything except for the current
thread group.
v2: Remove core_state from the VM_BUG_ON_MM print to fix
compile failure when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.

Rename coredump_exit_mm to coredump_task_exit and call it from do_exit before PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT, and before any cleanup work for a task happens. This ensures that an accurate copy of the process can be captured in the coredump as no cleanup for the process happens before the coredump completes. This also ensures that PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT will not be visited by any thread until the coredump is complete. Add a new flag PF_POSTCOREDUMP so that tasks that have passed through coredump_task_exit can be recognized and ignored in zap_process. Now that all of the coredumping happens before exit_mm remove code to test for a coredump in progress from mm_release. Replace "may_ptrace_stop()" with a simple test of "current->ptrace". The other tests in may_ptrace_stop all concern avoiding stopping during a coredump. These tests are no longer necessary as it is now guaranteed that fatal_signal_pending will be set if the code enters ptrace_stop during a coredump. The code in ptrace_stop is guaranteed not to stop if fatal_signal_pending returns true. Until this change "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" could call ptrace_stop without fatal_signal_pending being true, as signals are dequeued in get_signal before calling do_exit. This is no longer an issue as "ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT)" is no longer reached until after the coredump completes.
