Older (and maybe current) versions of systemd set release_agent to "" when shutting down, but do not set notify_on_release to 0. Since 64e90a8a ("Introduce STATIC_USERMODEHELPER to mediate call_usermodehelper()"), we filter out such calls when the user mode helper path is "". However, when used in conjunction with an actual (i.e. non "") STATIC_USERMODEHELPER, the path is never "", so the real usermode helper will be called with argv[0] == "". Let's avoid this by not invoking the release_agent when it is "". Signed-off-by: Tycho Andersen <tycho@tycho.ws> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Similar to the commit d7495343 ("cgroup: fix incorrect WARN_ON_ONCE() in cgroup_setup_root()"), cgroup_id(root_cgrp) does not equal to 1 on 32bit ino archs which triggers all sorts of issues with psi_show() on s390x.

Expand the cgroup test-suite to include tests for CLONE_INTO_CGROUP. This adds the following tests: - CLONE_INTO_CGROUP manages to clone a process directly into a correctly delegated cgroup - CLONE_INTO_CGROUP fails to clone a process into a cgroup that has been removed after we've opened an fd to it - CLONE_INTO_CGROUP fails to clone a process into an invalid domain cgroup - CLONE_INTO_CGROUP adheres to the no internal process constraint - CLONE_INTO_CGROUP works with the freezer feature Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: cgroups@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-kselftest@vger.kernel.org Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@ubuntu.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

This adds support for creating a process in a different cgroup than its parent. Callers can limit and account processes and threads right from the moment they are spawned: - A service manager can directly spawn new services into dedicated cgroups. - A process can be directly created in a frozen cgroup and will be frozen as well. - The initial accounting jitter experienced by process supervisors and daemons is eliminated with this. - Threaded applications or even thread implementations can choose to create a specific cgroup layout where each thread is spawned directly into a dedicated cgroup. This feature is limited to the unified hierarchy. Callers need to pass a directory file descriptor for the target cgroup. The caller can choose to pass an O_PATH file descriptor. All usual migration restrictions apply, i.e. there can be no processes in inner nodes. In general, creating a process directly in a target cgroup adheres to all migration restrictions. One of the biggest advantages of this feature is that CLONE_INTO_GROUP does not need to grab the write side of the cgroup cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem. This global lock makes moving tasks/threads around super expensive. With clone3() this lock is avoided.

The core codepaths to check whether a process can be attached to a cgroup are the same for threads and thread-group leaders. Only a small piece of code verifying that source and destination cgroup are in the same domain differentiates the thread permission checking from thread-group leader permission checking. Since cgroup_migrate_vet_dst() only matters cgroup2 - it is a noop on cgroup1 - we can move it out of cgroup_attach_task(). All checks can now be consolidated into a new helper cgroup_attach_permissions() callable from both cgroup_procs_write() and cgroup_threads_write().

PF_EXITING is set earlier than actual removal from css_set when a task is exitting. This can confuse cgroup.procs readers who see no PF_EXITING tasks, however, rmdir is checking against css_set membership so it can transitionally fail with EBUSY. Fix this by listing tasks that weren't unlinked from css_set active lists. It may happen that other users of the task iterator (without CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS) spot a PF_EXITING task before cgroup_exit(). This is equal to the state before commit c03cd773 ("cgroup: Include dying leaders with live threads in PROCS iterations") but it may be reviewed later.

Since commit 56d58936 ("kbuild: do not create orphan built-in.a or obj-y objects"), scripts/link-vmlinux.sh does nothing when descending into init/. Once the version number becomes out of sync between .version and include/generated/compile.h, it is not self-healing. [How to reproduce] $ echo 100 > .version $ make You will see the number in the .version is always bigger than that in compile.h by one. After this, every time you run 'make', the vmlinux is re-linked even when none of source files is updated.

The current implementation does a naive search of "bootconfig" on the kernel command line. But this could find "bootconfig" that is part of another option in quotes (although highly unlikely). But it also needs to find '--' on the kernel command line to know if it should append a '--' or not when a bootconfig in the initrd file has an "init" section. The check uses the naive strstr() to find to see if it exists. But this can return a false positive if it exists in an option and then the "init" section in the initrd will not be appended properly. Using parse_args() to find both of these will solve both of these problems.

Pull new zonefs file system from Damien Le Moal: "Zonefs is a very simple file system exposing each zone of a zoned block device as a file. Unlike a regular file system with native zoned block device support (e.g. f2fs or the on-going btrfs effort), zonefs does not hide the sequential write constraint of zoned block devices to the user. As a result, zonefs is not a POSIX compliant file system. Its goal is to simplify the implementation of zoned block devices support in applications by replacing raw block device file accesses with a richer file based API, avoiding relying on direct block device file ioctls which may be more obscure to developers. One example of this approach is the implementation of LSM (log-structured merge) tree structures (such as used in RocksDB and LevelDB) on zoned block devices by allowing SSTables to be stored in a zone file similarly to a regular file system rather than as a range of sectors of a zoned device. The introduction of the higher level construct "one file is one zone" can help reducing the amount of changes needed in the application while at the same time allowing the use of zoned block devices with various programming languages other than C. Zonefs IO management implementation uses the new iomap generic code. Zonefs has been successfully tested using a functional test suite (available with zonefs userland format tool on github) and a prototype implementation of LevelDB on top of zonefs" * tag 'zonefs-5.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dlemoal/zonefs: zonefs: Add documentation fs: New zonefs file system

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of fixes for X86: - Ensure that the PIT is set up when the local APIC is disable or configured in legacy mode. This is caused by an ordering issue introduced in the recent changes which skip PIT initialization when the TSC and APIC frequencies are already known. - Handle malformed SRAT tables during early ACPI parsing which caused an infinite loop anda boot hang. - Fix a long standing race in the affinity setting code which affects PCI devices with non-maskable MSI interrupts. The problem is caused by the non-atomic writes of the MSI address (destination APIC id) and data (vector) fields which the device uses to construct the MSI message. The non-atomic writes are mandated by PCI. If both fields change and the device raises an interrupt after writing address and before writing data, then the MSI block constructs a inconsistent message which causes interrupts to be lost and subsequent malfunction of the device. The fix is to redirect the interrupt to the new vector on the current CPU first and then switch it over to the new target CPU. This allows to observe an eventually raised interrupt in the transitional stage (old CPU, new vector) to be observed in the APIC IRR and retriggered on the new target CPU and the new vector. The potential spurious interrupts caused by this are harmless and can in the worst case expose a buggy driver (all handlers have to be able to deal with spurious interrupts as they can and do happen for various reasons). - Add the missing suspend/resume mechanism for the HYPERV hypercall page which prevents resume hibernation on HYPERV guests. This change got lost before the merge window. - Mask the IOAPIC before disabling the local APIC to prevent potentially stale IOAPIC remote IRR bits which cause stale interrupt lines after resume" * tag 'x86-urgent-2020-02-09' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/apic: Mask IOAPIC entries when disabling the local APIC x86/hyperv: Suspend/resume the hypercall page for hibernation x86/apic/msi: Plug non-maskable MSI affinity race x86/boot: Handle malformed SRAT tables during early ACPI parsing x86/timer: Don't skip PIT setup when APIC is disabled or in legacy mode
