cgroup: fix rule checking for threaded mode switching

2018-02-21T19:39:22Z

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().

kernel/cpuset: current_cpuset_is_being_rebound can be boolean

2018-02-07T02:32:47Z

Make current_cpuset_is_being_rebound return bool due to this particular function only using either one or zero as its return value. No functional change.

string: drop __must_check from strscpy() and restore strscpy() usages in cgroup

2018-01-19T16:51:36Z

e7fd37ba1217 ("cgroup: avoid copying strings longer than the buffers") converted possibly unsafe strncpy() usages in cgroup to strscpy(). However, although the callsites are completely fine with truncated copied, because strscpy() is marked __must_check, it led to the following warnings. kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c: In function ‘cgroup_file_name’: kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:1400:10: warning: ignoring return value of ‘strscpy’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result] strscpy(buf, cft->name, CGROUP_FILE_NAME_MAX); ^ To avoid the warnings, 50034ed49645 ("cgroup: use strlcpy() instead of strscpy() to avoid spurious warning") switched them to strlcpy(). strlcpy() is worse than strlcpy() because it unconditionally runs strlen() on the source string, and the only reason we switched to strlcpy() here was because it was lacking __must_check, which doesn't reflect any material differences between the two function. It's just that someone added __must_check to strscpy() and not to strlcpy(). These basic string copy operations are used in variety of ways, and one of not-so-uncommon use cases is safely handling truncated copies, where the caller naturally doesn't care about the return value. The __must_check doesn't match the actual use cases and forces users to opt for inferior variants which lack __must_check by happenstance or spread ugly (void) casts. Remove __must_check from strscpy() and restore strscpy() usages in cgroup. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds Cc: Ma Shimiao Cc: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Chris Metcalf

cgroup: fix css_task_iter crash on CSS_TASK_ITER_PROC

2017-12-20T15:09:19Z

While teaching css_task_iter to handle skipping over tasks which aren't group leaders, bc2fb7ed089f ("cgroup: add @flags to css_task_iter_start() and implement CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS") introduced a silly bug. CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS is implemented by repeating css_task_iter_advance() while the advanced cursor is pointing to a non-leader thread. However, the cursor variable, @l, wasn't updated when the iteration has to advance to the next css_set and the following repetition would operate on the terminal @l from the previous iteration which isn't pointing to a valid task leading to oopses like the following or infinite looping.
