2015-10-15cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroupsTejun Heo
cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup. This is unnecessary and undesirable. No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with non-root cgroups. Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep consistent with the cgroup core behavior. Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held by zombies or determine where the zombies came from. Currently, pids controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies always escape the resource restriction. With cgroup association being reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful. There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit. The zombie can be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on "cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup removal. It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup membership is maintained. This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies associated with their cgroups at the time of exit. * Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set while pinning and pointing to the css_set. This keeps css_set association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs" and populated_cnt tracking. The css_set reference is dropped when the task_struct is freed. * ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set. Removed. * cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks. There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit. The final schedule out is enough. The callbacks are removed. * On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes. "/proc/PID/cgroup" still reports "/" for all zombies. On the default hierarchy, "/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged to at the time of exit. If the cgroup gets removed before the task is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended. v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when !CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

2015-10-15cgroup: make css_set_rwsem a spinlock and rename it to css_set_lockTejun Heo
css_set_rwsem is the inner lock protecting css_sets and is accessed from hot paths such as fork and exit. Internally, it has no reason to be a rwsem or even mutex. There are no internal blocking operations while holding it. This was rwsem because css task iteration used to expose it to external iterator users. As the previous patch updated css task iteration such that the locking is not leaked to its users, there's no reason to keep it a rwsem. This patch converts css_set_rwsem to a spinlock and rename it to css_set_lock. It uses bh-safe operations as a planned usage needs to access it from RCU callback context.

2015-10-15cgroup: don't hold css_set_rwsem across css task iterationTejun Heo
css_sets are synchronized through css_set_rwsem but the locking scheme is kinda bizarre. The hot paths - fork and exit - have to write lock the rwsem making the rw part pointless; furthermore, many readers already hold cgroup_mutex. One of the readers is css task iteration. It read locks the rwsem over the entire duration of iteration. This leads to silly locking behavior. When cpuset tries to migrate processes of a cgroup to a different NUMA node, css_set_rwsem is held across the entire migration attempt which can take a long time locking out forking, exiting and other cgroup operations. This patch updates css task iteration so that it locks css_set_rwsem only while the iterator is being advanced. css task iteration involves two levels - css_set and task iteration. As css_sets in use are practically immutable, simply pinning the current one is enough for resuming iteration afterwards. Task iteration is tricky as tasks may leave their css_set while iteration is in progress. This is solved by keeping track of active iterators and advancing them if their next task leaves its css_set. v2: put_task_struct() in css_task_iter_next() moved outside css_set_rwsem. A later patch will add cgroup operations to task_struct free path which may grab the same lock and this avoids deadlock possibilities. css_set_move_task() updated to use list_for_each_entry_safe() when walking task_iters and advancing them. This is necessary as advancing an iter may remove it from the list. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: reorganize css_task_iter functionsTejun Heo
* Rename css_advance_task_iter() to css_task_iter_advance_css_set() and make it clear it->task_pos too at the end of the iteration. * Factor out css_task_iter_advance() from css_task_iter_next(). The new function whines if called on a terminated iterator. Except for the termination check, this is pure reorganization and doesn't introduce any behavior changes. This will help the planned locking update for css_task_iter. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: factor out css_set_move_task()Tejun Heo
A task is associated and disassociated with its css_set in three places - during migration, after a new task is created and when a task exits. The first is handled by cgroup_task_migrate() and the latter two are open-coded. These are similar operations and spreading them over multiple places makes it harder to follow and update. This patch collects all task css_set [dis]association operations into css_set_move_task(). While css_set_move_task() may check whether populated state needs to be updated when not strictly necessary, the behavior is essentially equivalent before and after this patch.

2015-10-15cgroup: keep css_set and task lists in chronological orderTejun Heo
css task iteration will be updated to not leak cgroup internal locking to iterator users. In preparation, update css_set and task lists to be in chronological order. For tasks, as migration path is already using list_splice_tail_init(), only cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists() and cgroup_post_fork() need updating. For css_sets, link_css_set() is the only place which needs to be updated. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: make cgroup_destroy_locked() test cgroup_is_populated()Tejun Heo
cgroup_destroy_locked() currently tests whether any css_sets are associated to reject removal if the cgroup contains tasks. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks. To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even when it doesn't have any live tasks. This patch updates cgroup_destroy_locked() so that it tests cgroup_is_populated(), which counts the number of populated css_sets, instead of whether cgrp->cset_links is empty to determine whether the cgroup is populated or not. This ensures that rmdirs won't be incorrectly rejected for cgroups which only contain zombie tasks. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: make css_sets pin the associated cgroupsTejun Heo
Currently, css_sets don't pin the associated cgroups. This is okay as a cgroup with css_sets associated are not allowed to be removed; however, to help resource tracking for zombie tasks, this is scheduled to change such that a cgroup can be removed even when it has css_sets associated as long as none of them are populated. To ensure that a cgroup doesn't go away while css_sets are still associated with it, make each associated css_set hold a reference on the cgroup if non-root. v2: Root cgroups are special and shouldn't be ref'd by css_sets.

2015-10-15cgroup: move check_for_release() invocationTejun Heo
To trigger release agent when the last task leaves the cgroup, check_for_release() is called from put_css_set_locked(); however, css_set being unlinked is being decoupled from task leaving the cgroup and the correct condition to test is cgroup->nr_populated dropping to zero which check_for_release() is already updated to test. This patch moves check_for_release() invocation from put_css_set_locked() to cgroup_update_populated(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: replace cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated()Tejun Heo
Currently, cgroup_has_tasks() tests whether the target cgroup has any css_set linked to it. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks. To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even when it doesn't have any live tasks. This patch replaces cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated() which tests cgroup->nr_populated instead which locally counts the number of populated css_sets. Unlike cgroup_has_tasks(), cgroup_is_populated() is recursive - if any of the descendants is populated, the cgroup is populated too. While this changes the meaning of the test, all the existing users are okay with the change. While at it, replace the open-coded ->populated_cnt test in cgroup_events_show() with cgroup_is_populated().

2015-10-15cgroup: make cgroup->nr_populated count the number of populated css_setsTejun Heo
Currently, cgroup->nr_populated counts whether the cgroup has any css_sets linked to it and the number of children which has non-zero ->nr_populated. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks. To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even when it doesn't have any live tasks. This patch updates cgroup->nr_populated so that for the cgroup itself it counts the number of css_sets which have tasks associated with them so that empty css_sets don't skew the populated test.

2015-09-22cgroup: make cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomicallyTejun Heo
cgroup_update_dfl_csses() is responsible for migrating processes when controllers are enabled or disabled on the default hierarchy. As the css association changes for all the processes in the affected cgroups, this involves migrating multiple processes. Up until now, it was implemented by migrating process-by-process until the source css_sets are empty; however, this means that if a process fails to migrate after some succeed before it, the recovery is very tricky. This was considered okay as subsystems weren't allowed to reject process migration on the default hierarchy; unfortunately, enforcing this policy turned out to be problematic for certain types of resources - realtime slices for now. As such, the default hierarchy is gonna allow restricted failures during migration and to support that this patch makes cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomically rather than one-by-one. The preceding patches made subsystems ready for multi-process migration and factored out taskset operations making this almost trivial. All tasks of the target processes are put in the same taskset and the migration operations are performed once which either fails or succeeds for all.

2015-09-22cgroup: separate out taskset operations from cgroup_migrate()Tejun Heo
Currently, cgroup_migreate() implements large part of the migration logic inline including building the target taskset and actually migrating them. This patch separates out the following taskset operations. CGROUP_TASKSET_INIT() : taskset initializer cgroup_taskset_add() : add a task to a taskset cgroup_taskset_migrate() : migrate a taskset to the destination cgroup This will be used to implement atomic multi-process migration in cgroup_update_dfl_csses().

2015-09-22cgroup, memcg, cpuset: implement cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader()Tejun Heo
It wasn't explicitly documented but, when a process is being migrated, cpuset and memcg depend on cgroup_taskset_first() returning the threadgroup leader; however, this approach is somewhat ghetto and would no longer work for the planned multi-process migration. This patch introduces explicit cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader() which iterates over only the threadgroup leaders and replaces cgroup_taskset_first() usages for accessing the leader with it. This prepares both memcg and cpuset for multi-process migration. This patch also updates the documentation for cgroup_taskset_for_each() to clarify the iteration rules and removes comments mentioning task ordering in tasksets. v2: A previous patch which added threadgroup leader test was dropped.

2015-09-18cgroup: generalize obtaining the handles of and notifying cgroup filesTejun Heo
cgroup core handles creations and removals of cgroup interface files as described by cftypes. There are cases where the handle for a given file instance is necessary, for example, to generate a file modified event. Currently, this is handled by explicitly matching the callback method pointer and storing the file handle manually in cgroup_add_file(). While this simple approach works for cgroup core files, it can't for controller interface files. This patch generalizes cgroup interface file handle handling. struct cgroup_file is defined and each cftype can optionally tell cgroup core to store the file handle by setting ->file_offset. A file handle remains accessible as long as the containing css is accessible. Both "cgroup.procs" and "cgroup.events" are converted to use the new generic mechanism instead of hooking directly into cgroup_add_file(). Also, cgroup_file_notify() which takes a struct cgroup_file and generates a file modified event on it is added and replaces explicit kernfs_notify() invocations. This generalizes cgroup file handle handling and allows controllers to generate file modified notifications.

2015-09-18cgroup: restructure file creation / removal handlingTejun Heo
The file creation / removal path has always been a bit icky and the planned notification update requires css during file creation.

Subsystem loops are moved to the callers. * cgroup_add_file() now takes both @css and @cgrp. @css isn't used yet but will be used by the planned notification update.

2015-09-18cgroup: make cgroup_addrm_files() clean up after itself on failuresTejun Heo
After a file creation failure, cgroup_addrm_files() it didn't remove the files which had already been created. When cgroup_populate_dir() is the caller, this is fine as the caller performs cleanup; however, for other callers, this may leave unactivated dangling files behind. As kernfs directory removals are recursive, this doesn't lead to permanent memory leak but it can, for example, fail future attempts to create those files again. There's no point in keeping around this sort of subtlety and it gets in the way of planned updates to file handling. This patch makes cgroup_addrm_files() clean up after itself on failures.

cftype->mode allows controllers to give arbitrary permissions to interface knobs. Except for "cgroup.event_control", the existing uses are spurious. * Some explicitly specify S_IRUGO | S_IWUSR even though that's the default. * "cpuset.memory_pressure" specifies S_IRUGO while also setting a write callback which returns -EACCES. All it needs to do is simply not setting a write callback. "cgroup.event_control" uses cftype->mode to make the file world-writable. It's a misdesigned interface and we don't want controllers to be tweaking interface file permissions in general.

2015-09-16sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsemTejun Heo
Note: This commit was originally committed as d59cfc09c32a but got reverted by 0c986253b939 due to the performance regression from the percpu_rwsem write down/up operations added to cgroup task migration path. percpu_rwsem changes which alleviate the performance issue are pending for v4.4-rc1 merge window. Re-apply. The cgroup side of threadgroup locking uses signal_struct->group_rwsem to synchronize against threadgroup changes. This per-process rwsem adds small overhead to thread creation, exit and exec paths, forces cgroup code paths to do lock-verify-unlock-retry dance in a couple places and makes it impossible to atomically perform operations across multiple processes. This patch replaces signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsem cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem which is cheaper on the reader side and contained in cgroups proper. This patch converts one-to-one. This does make writer side heavier and lower the granularity; however, cgroup process migration is a fairly cold path, we do want to optimize thread operations over it and cgroup migration operations don't take enough time for the lower granularity to matter.

When seq_show_option (commit a068acf2ee77: "fs: create and use seq_show_option for escaping") was merged, it did not correctly collide with cgroup's addition of legacy_name (commit 3e1d2eed39d8: "cgroup: introduce cgroup_subsys->legacy_name") changes. This fixes the reported name.

2015-09-04fs: create and use seq_show_option for escapingKees Cook
Many file systems that implement the show_options hook fail to correctly escape their output which could lead to unescaped characters (e.g. new lines) leaking into /proc/mounts and /proc/[pid]/mountinfo files. This could lead to confusion, spoofed entries (resulting in things like systemd issuing false d-bus "mount" notifications), and who knows what else. This looks like it would only be the root user stepping on themselves, but it's possible weird things could happen in containers or in other situations with delegated mount privileges. Here's an example using overlay with setuid fusermount trusting the contents of /proc/mounts (via the /etc/mtab symlink). Imagine the use of "sudo" is something more sneaky: $ BASE="ovl" $ MNT="$BASE/mnt" $ LOW="$BASE/lower" $ UP="$BASE/upper" $ WORK="$BASE/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000" $ mkdir -p "$LOW" "$UP" "$WORK" $ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=$LOW,upperdir=$UP,workdir=$WORK" none /mnt $ cat /proc/mounts none /root/ovl/mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=ovl/lower,upperdir=ovl/upper,workdir=ovl/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000 0 0 $ fusermount -u /proc $ cat /proc/mounts cat: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory This fixes the problem by adding new seq_show_option and seq_show_option_n helpers, and updating the vulnerable show_option handlers to use them as needed. Some, like SELinux, need to be open coded due to unusual existing escape mechanisms.

2015-08-18cgroup: introduce cgroup_subsys->legacy_nameTejun Heo
This allows cgroup subsystems to use a different name on the unified hierarchy. cgroup_subsys->name is used on the unified hierarchy, ->legacy_name elsewhere. If ->legacy_name is not explicitly set, it's automatically set to ->name and the userland visible behavior remains unchanged. v2: Make parse_cgroupfs_options() only consider ->legacy_name as mount options are used only on legacy hierarchies.

2015-08-03cgroup: fix idr_preload usageVladimir Davydov
It does not make much sense to call idr_preload with the same gfp mask as the following idr_alloc, but this is what we do in cgroup_idr_alloc. This patch fixes the idr_preload usage by making cgroup_idr_alloc call idr_alloc w/o __GFP_WAIT. Since it is now safe to call cgroup_idr_alloc with GFP_KERNEL, the patch also fixes all its callers appropriately.

2015-07-14cgroup: allow a cgroup subsystem to reject a forkAleksa Sarai
Add a new cgroup subsystem callback can_fork that conditionally states whether or not the fork is accepted or rejected by a cgroup policy. In addition, add a cancel_fork callback so that if an error occurs later in the forking process, any state modified by can_fork can be reverted. Allow for a private opaque pointer to be passed from cgroup_can_fork to cgroup_post_fork, allowing for the fork state to be stored by each subsystem separately. Also add a tagging system for cgroup_subsys.h to allow for CGROUP_<TAG> enumerations to be be defined and used. In addition, explicitly add a CGROUP_CANFORK_COUNT macro to make arrays easier to define. This is in preparation for implementing the pids cgroup subsystem.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman: "Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all. Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced. There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount points on proc and sysfs that are created specially. This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime, read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid attributes remains for another time. This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of /proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was converted) and is not now actively wrong. There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that I will mention briefly. It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount. At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the performance part of pathname resolution. As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once they are recognized" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: vfs: Remove incorrect debugging WARN in prepend_path mnt: Update fs_fully_visible to test for permanently empty directories sysfs: Create mountpoints with sysfs_create_mount_point sysfs: Add support for permanently empty directories to serve as mount points. kernfs: Add support for always empty directories. proc: Allow creating permanently empty directories that serve as mount points sysctl: Allow creating permanently empty directories that serve as mountpoints. fs: Add helper functions for permanently empty directories. vfs: Ignore unlocked mounts in fs_fully_visible mnt: Modify fs_fully_visible to deal with locked ro nodev and atime mnt: Refactor the logic for mounting sysfs and proc in a user namespace

2015-06-18cgroup: require write perm on common ancestor when moving processes on the ↵Tejun Heo
default hierarchy On traditional hierarchies, if a task has write access to "tasks" or "cgroup.procs" file of a cgroup and its euid agrees with the target, it can move the target to the cgroup; however, consider the following scenario. The owner of each cgroup is in the parentheses. R (root) - 0 (root) - 00 (user1) - 000 (user1) | \ 001 (user1) \ 1 (root) - 10 (user1) The subtrees of 00 and 10 are delegated to user1; however, while both subtrees may belong to the same user, it is clear that the two subtrees are to be isolated - they're under completely separate resource limits imposed by 0 and 1, respectively. Note that 0 and 1 aren't strictly necessary but added to ease illustrating the issue. If user1 is allowed to move processes between the two subtrees, the intention of the hierarchy - keeping a given group of processes under a subtree with certain resource restrictions while delegating management of the subtree - can be circumvented by user1. This happens because migration permission check doesn't consider the hierarchical nature of cgroups. To fix the issue, this patch adds an extra permission requirement when userland tries to migrate a process in the default hierarchy - the issuing task must have write access to the common ancestor of "cgroup.procs" file of the ancestor in addition to the destination's. Conceptually, the issuer must be able to move the target process from the source cgroup to the common ancestor of source and destination cgroups and then to the destination. As long as delegation is done in a proper top-down way, this guarantees that a delegatee can't smuggle processes across disjoint delegation domains. The next patch will add documentation on the delegation model on the default hierarchy. v2: Fixed missing !ret test. Spotted by Li Zefan.

2015-06-18cgroup: separate out cgroup_procs_write_permission() from __cgroup_procs_write()Tejun Heo
Separate out task / process migration permission check from __cgroup_procs_write() into cgroup_procs_write_permission(). * Permission check is moved right above the actual migration and no longer performed while holding rcu_read_lock(). cgroup_procs_write_permission() uses get_task_cred() / put_cred() instead of __task_cred(). Also, !root trying to migrate kthreadd or PF_NO_SETAFFINITY tasks will now fail with -EINVAL rather than -EACCES which should be fine. * The same permission check is now performed even when moving self by specifying 0 as pid. This always succeeds so there's no functional difference. We'll add more permission checks later and the benefits of keeping both cases consistent outweigh the minute overhead of doing perm checks on pid 0 case. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
