cgroup/cpuset: Fix a race between cpuset_attach() and cpu hotplug
As previously discussed(https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/1/20/51), cpuset_attach() is affected with similar cpu hotplug race, as follow scenario: cpuset_attach() cpu hotplug --------------------------- ---------------------- down_write(cpuset_rwsem) guarantee_online_cpus() // (load cpus_attach) sched_cpu_deactivate set_cpu_active() // will change cpu_active_mask set_cpus_allowed_ptr(cpus_attach) __set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked() // (if the intersection of cpus_attach and cpu_active_mask is empty, will return -EINVAL) up_write(cpuset_rwsem) To avoid races such as described above, protect cpuset_attach() call with cpu_hotplug_lock.
