Linus Torvalds 18b19abc37 Merge tag 'namespace-6.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains a larger set of changes around the generic namespace
  infrastructure of the kernel.

  Each specific namespace type (net, cgroup, mnt, ...) embedds a struct
  ns_common which carries the reference count of the namespace and so
  on.

  We open-coded and cargo-culted so many quirks for each namespace type
  that it just wasn't scalable anymore. So given there's a bunch of new
  changes coming in that area I've started cleaning all of this up.

  The core change is to make it possible to correctly initialize every
  namespace uniformly and derive the correct initialization settings
  from the type of the namespace such as namespace operations, namespace
  type and so on. This leaves the new ns_common_init() function with a
  single parameter which is the specific namespace type which derives
  the correct parameters statically. This also means the compiler will
  yell as soon as someone does something remotely fishy.

  The ns_common_init() addition also allows us to remove ns_alloc_inum()
  and drops any special-casing of the initial network namespace in the
  network namespace initialization code that Linus complained about.

  Another part is reworking the reference counting. The reference
  counting was open-coded and copy-pasted for each namespace type even
  though they all followed the same rules. This also removes all open
  accesses to the reference count and makes it private and only uses a
  very small set of dedicated helpers to manipulate them just like we do
  for e.g., files.

  In addition this generalizes the mount namespace iteration
  infrastructure introduced a few cycles ago. As reminder, the vfs makes
  it possible to iterate sequentially and bidirectionally through all
  mount namespaces on the system or all mount namespaces that the caller
  holds privilege over. This allow userspace to iterate over all mounts
  in all mount namespaces using the listmount() and statmount() system
  call.

  Each mount namespace has a unique identifier for the lifetime of the
  systems that is exposed to userspace. The network namespace also has a
  unique identifier working exactly the same way. This extends the
  concept to all other namespace types.

  The new nstree type makes it possible to lookup namespaces purely by
  their identifier and to walk the namespace list sequentially and
  bidirectionally for all namespace types, allowing userspace to iterate
  through all namespaces. Looking up namespaces in the namespace tree
  works completely locklessly.

  This also means we can move the mount namespace onto the generic
  infrastructure and remove a bunch of code and members from struct
  mnt_namespace itself.

  There's a bunch of stuff coming on top of this in the future but for
  now this uses the generic namespace tree to extend a concept
  introduced first for pidfs a few cycles ago. For a while now we have
  supported pidfs file handles for pidfds. This has proven to be very
  useful.

  This extends the concept to cover namespaces as well. It is possible
  to encode and decode namespace file handles using the common
  name_to_handle_at() and open_by_handle_at() apis.

  As with pidfs file handles, namespace file handles are exhaustive,
  meaning it is not required to actually hold a reference to nsfs in
  able to decode aka open_by_handle_at() a namespace file handle.
  Instead the FD_NSFS_ROOT constant can be passed which will let the
  kernel grab a reference to the root of nsfs internally and thus decode
  the file handle.

  Namespaces file descriptors can already be derived from pidfds which
  means they aren't subject to overmount protection bugs. IOW, it's
  irrelevant if the caller would not have access to an appropriate
  /proc/<pid>/ns/ directory as they could always just derive the
  namespace based on a pidfd already.

  It has the same advantage as pidfds. It's possible to reliably and for
  the lifetime of the system refer to a namespace without pinning any
  resources and to compare them trivially.

  Permission checking is kept simple. If the caller is located in the
  namespace the file handle refers to they are able to open it otherwise
  they must hold privilege over the owning namespace of the relevant
  namespace.

  The namespace file handle layout is exposed as uapi and has a stable
  and extensible format. For now it simply contains the namespace
  identifier, the namespace type, and the inode number. The stable
  format means that userspace may construct its own namespace file
  handles without going through name_to_handle_at() as they are already
  allowed for pidfs and cgroup file handles"

Christian Brauner d7afdf8895 ns: add to_<type>_ns() to respective headers
Every namespace type has a container_of(ns, <ns_type>, ns) static inline
function that is currently not exposed in the header. So we have a bunch
of places that open-code it via container_of(). Move it to the headers
so we can use it directly.

Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi 2c89513395 bpf: Do not limit bpf_cgroup_from_id to current's namespace
The bpf_cgroup_from_id kfunc relies on cgroup_get_from_id to obtain the
cgroup corresponding to a given cgroup ID. This helper can be called in
a lot of contexts where the current thread can be random. A recent
example was its use in sched_ext's ops.tick(), to obtain the root cgroup
pointer. Since the current task can be whatever random user space task
preempted by the timer tick, this makes the behavior of the helper
unreliable.

Refactor out __cgroup_get_from_id as the non-namespace aware version of
cgroup_get_from_id, and change bpf_cgroup_from_id to make use of it.

There is no compatibility breakage here, since changing the namespace
against which the lookup is being done to the root cgroup namespace only
permits a wider set of lookups to succeed now. The cgroup IDs across
namespaces are globally unique, and thus don't need to be retranslated.

Simon Schuster edd3cb05c0 copy_process: pass clone_flags as u64 across calltree
With the introduction of clone3 in commit 7f192e3cd3 ("fork: add
clone3") the effective bit width of clone_flags on all architectures was
increased from 32-bit to 64-bit, with a new type of u64 for the flags.
However, for most consumers of clone_flags the interface was not
changed from the previous type of unsigned long.

While this works fine as long as none of the new 64-bit flag bits
(CLONE_CLEAR_SIGHAND and CLONE_INTO_CGROUP) are evaluated, this is still
undesirable in terms of the principle of least surprise.

Thus, this commit fixes all relevant interfaces of callees to
sys_clone3/copy_process (excluding the architecture-specific
copy_thread) to consistently pass clone_flags as u64, so that
no truncation to 32-bit integers occurs on 32-bit architectures.

Chen Ridong 4c70fb2624 cpuset: remove redundant CS_ONLINE flag
The CS_ONLINE flag was introduced prior to the CSS_ONLINE flag in the
cpuset subsystem. Currently, the flag setting sequence is as follows:

1. cpuset_css_online() sets CS_ONLINE
2. css->flags gets CSS_ONLINE set
...
3. cgroup->kill_css sets CSS_DYING
4. cpuset_css_offline() clears CS_ONLINE
5. css->flags clears CSS_ONLINE

The is_cpuset_online() check currently occurs between steps 1 and 3.
However, it would be equally safe to perform this check between steps 2
and 3, as CSS_ONLINE provides the same synchronization guarantee as
CS_ONLINE.

Since CS_ONLINE is redundant with CSS_ONLINE and provides no additional
synchronization benefits, we can safely remove it to simplify the code.

Linus Torvalds 3b66e6b3c0 Merge tag 'cgroup-for-6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:

 - cgroup rstat shared the tracking tree across all controllers with the
   rationale being that a cgroup which is using one resource is likely
   to be using other resources at the same time (ie. if something is
   allocating memory, it's probably consuming CPU cycles).

   However, this turned out to not scale very well especially with memcg
   using rstat for internal operations which made memcg stat read and
   flush patterns substantially different from other controllers. JP
   Kobryn split the rstat tree per controller.

 - cgroup BPF support was hooking into cgroup init/exit paths directly.

   Convert them to use a notifier chain instead so that other usages can
   be added easily. The two of the patches which implement this are
   mislabeled as belonging to sched_ext instead of cgroup. Sorry.

 - Relatively minor cpuset updates

 - Documentation updates

Linus Torvalds 181d8e399f Merge tag 'vfs-6.16-rc1.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the usual selections of misc updates for this cycle.

  Features:

   - Use folios for symlinks in the page cache

     FUSE already uses folios for its symlinks. Mirror that conversion
     in the generic code and the NFS code. That lets us get rid of a few
     folio->page->folio conversions in this path, and some of the few
     remaining users of read_cache_page() / read_mapping_page()

   - Try and make a few filesystem operations killable on the VFS
     inode->i_mutex level

   - Add sysctl vfs_cache_pressure_denom for bulk file operations

     Some workloads need to preserve more dentries than we currently
     allow through out sysctl interface

     A HDFS servers with 12 HDDs per server, on a HDFS datanode startup
     involves scanning all files and caching their metadata (including
     dentries and inodes) in memory. Each HDD contains approximately 2
     million files, resulting in a total of ~20 million cached dentries
     after initialization

     To minimize dentry reclamation, they set vfs_cache_pressure to 1.
     Despite this configuration, memory pressure conditions can still
     trigger reclamation of up to 50% of cached dentries, reducing the
     cache from 20 million to approximately 10 million entries. During
     the subsequent cache rebuild period, any HDFS datanode restart
     operation incurs substantial latency penalties until full cache
     recovery completes

     To maintain service stability, more dentries need to be preserved
     during memory reclamation. The current minimum reclaim ratio (1/100
     of total dentries) remains too aggressive for such workload. This
     patch introduces vfs_cache_pressure_denom for more granular cache
     pressure control

     The configuration [vfs_cache_pressure=1,
     vfs_cache_pressure_denom=10000] effectively maintains the full 20
     million dentry cache under memory pressure, preventing datanode
     restart performance degradation

   - Avoid some jumps in inode_permission() using likely()/unlikely()

   - Avid a memory access which is most likely a cache miss when
     descending into devcgroup_inode_permission()

   - Add fastpath predicts for stat() and fdput()

   - Anonymous inodes currently don't come with a proper mode causing
     issues in the kernel when we want to add useful VFS debug assert.
     Fix that by giving them a proper mode and masking it off when we
     report it to userspace which relies on them not having any mode

   - Anonymous inodes currently allow to change inode attributes because
     the VFS falls back to simple_setattr() if i_op->setattr isn't
     implemented. This means the ownership and mode for every single
     user of anon_inode_inode can be changed. Block that as it's either
     useless or actively harmful. If specific ownership is needed the
     respective subsystem should allocate anonymous inodes from their
     own private superblock

   - Raise SB_I_NODEV and SB_I_NOEXEC on the anonymous inode superblock

   - Add proper tests for anonymous inode behavior

   - Make it easy to detect proper anonymous inodes and to ensure that
     we can detect them in codepaths such as readahead()

  Cleanups:

   - Port pidfs to the new anon_inode_{g,s}etattr() helpers

   - Try to remove the uselib() system call

   - Add unlikely branch hint return path for poll

   - Add unlikely branch hint on return path for core_sys_select

   - Don't allow signals to interrupt getdents copying for fuse

   - Provide a size hint to dir_context for during readdir()

   - Use writeback_iter directly in mpage_writepages

   - Update compression and mtime descriptions in initramfs
     documentation

   - Update main netfs API document

   - Remove useless plus one in super_cache_scan()

   - Remove unnecessary NULL-check guards during setns()

   - Add separate separate {get,put}_cgroup_ns no-op cases

   - Fix typo in root= kernel parameter description

   - Use KERN_INFO for infof()|info_plog()|infofc()

   - Correct comments of fs_validate_description()

   - Mark an unlikely if condition with unlikely() in

   - Delete macro fsparam_u32hex()

   - Remove unused and problematic validate_constant_table()

   - Fix potential unsigned integer underflow in fs_name()

Tejun Heo 9e8c67a9e5 sched_ext: Introduce cgroup_lifetime_notifier
Other subsystems may make use of the cgroup hierarchy with the cgroup_bpf
support being one such example. For such a feature, it's useful to be able
to hook into cgroup creation and destruction paths to perform
feature-specific initializations and cleanups.

Add cgroup_lifetime_notifier which generates CGROUP_LIFETIME_ONLINE and
CGROUP_LIFETIME_OFFLINE events whenever cgroups are created and destroyed,
respectively.

The next patch will convert cgroup_bpf to use the new notifier and other

JP Kobryn a97915559f cgroup: change rstat function signatures from cgroup-based to css-based
This non-functional change serves as preparation for moving to
subsystem-based rstat trees. To simplify future commits, change the
signatures of existing cgroup-based rstat functions to become css-based and
rename them to reflect that.

Though the signatures have changed, the implementations have not. Within
these functions use the css->cgroup pointer to obtain the associated cgroup
and allow code to function the same just as it did before this patch. At
applicable call sites, pass the subsystem-specific css pointer as an
argument or pass a pointer to cgroup::self if not in subsystem context.

Note that cgroup_rstat_updated_list() and cgroup_rstat_push_children()
are not altered yet since there would be a larger amount of css to
cgroup conversions which may overcomplicate the code at this
intermediate phase.

JP Kobryn 845a724580 cgroup: add helper for checking when css is cgroup::self
The cgroup struct has a css field called "self". The main difference
between this css and the others found in the cgroup::subsys array is that
cgroup::self has a NULL subsystem pointer. There are several places where
checks are performed to determine whether the css in question is
cgroup::self or not. Instead of accessing css->ss directly, introduce a
helper function that shows the intent and use where applicable.

Waiman Long a22b3d54de cgroup/cpuset: Fix race between newly created partition and dying one
There is a possible race between removing a cgroup diectory that is
a partition root and the creation of a new partition.  The partition
to be removed can be dying but still online, it doesn't not currently
participate in checking for exclusive CPUs conflict, but the exclusive
CPUs are still there in subpartitions_cpus and isolated_cpus. These
two cpumasks are global states that affect the operation of cpuset
partitions. The exclusive CPUs in dying cpusets will only be removed
when cpuset_css_offline() function is called after an RCU delay.

As a result, it is possible that a new partition can be created with
exclusive CPUs that overlap with those of a dying one. When that dying
partition is finally offlined, it removes those overlapping exclusive
CPUs from subpartitions_cpus and maybe isolated_cpus resulting in an
incorrect CPU configuration.

This bug was found when a warning was triggered in
remote_partition_disable() during testing because the subpartitions_cpus
mask was empty.

One possible way to fix this is to iterate the dying cpusets as well and
avoid using the exclusive CPUs in those dying cpusets. However, this
can still cause random partition creation failures or other anomalies
due to racing. A better way to fix this race is to reset the partition
state at the moment when a cpuset is being killed.

Introduce a new css_killed() CSS function pointer and call it, if
defined, before setting CSS_DYING flag in kill_css(). Also update the
css_is_dying() helper to use the CSS_DYING flag introduced by commit
33c35aa481 ("cgroup: Prevent kill_css() from being called more than
once") for proper synchronization.

Add a new cpuset_css_killed() function to reset the partition state of
a valid partition root if it is being killed.

Yosry Ahmed 093c8812de cgroup: rstat: Cleanup flushing functions and locking
Now that the rstat lock is being re-acquired on every CPU iteration in
cgroup_rstat_flush_locked(), having the initially acquire the lock is
unnecessary and unclear.

Inline cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() into cgroup_rstat_flush() and move
the lock/unlock calls to the beginning and ending of the loop body to
make the critical section obvious.

cgroup_rstat_flush_hold/release() do not make much sense with the lock
being dropped and reacquired internally. Since it has no external
callers, remove it and explicitly acquire the lock in
cgroup_base_stat_cputime_show() instead.

This leaves the code with a single flushing function,
cgroup_rstat_flush().

  The goals of this are:

   - Ease of experimentation and exploration: Enabling rapid iteration
     of new scheduling policies.

   - Customization: Building application-specific schedulers which
     implement policies that are not applicable to general-purpose
     schedulers.

   - Rapid scheduler deployments: Non-disruptive swap outs of scheduling
     policies in production environments"

David Finkel c6f53ed8f2 mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers
Patch series "mm, memcg: cg2 memory{.swap,}.peak write handlers", v7.


This patch (of 2):

Other mechanisms for querying the peak memory usage of either a process or
v1 memory cgroup allow for resetting the high watermark.  Restore parity
with those mechanisms, but with a less racy API.

For example:
 - Any write to memory.max_usage_in_bytes in a cgroup v1 mount resets
   the high watermark.
 - writing "5" to the clear_refs pseudo-file in a processes's proc
   directory resets the peak RSS.

This change is an evolution of a previous patch, which mostly copied the
cgroup v1 behavior, however, there were concerns about races/ownership
issues with a global reset, so instead this change makes the reset
filedescriptor-local.

Writing any non-empty string to the memory.peak and memory.swap.peak
pseudo-files reset the high watermark to the current usage for subsequent
reads through that same FD.

Notably, following Johannes's suggestion, this implementation moves the
O(FDs that have written) behavior onto the FD write(2) path.  Instead, on
the page-allocation path, we simply add one additional watermark to
conditionally bump per-hierarchy level in the page-counter.

Additionally, this takes Longman's suggestion of nesting the
page-charging-path checks for the two watermarks to reduce the number of
common-case comparisons.

This behavior is particularly useful for work scheduling systems that need
to track memory usage of worker processes/cgroups per-work-item.  Since
memory can't be squeezed like CPU can (the OOM-killer has opinions), these
systems need to track the peak memory usage to compute system/container
fullness when binpacking workitems.

Most notably, Vimeo's use-case involves a system that's doing global
binpacking across many Kubernetes pods/containers, and while we can use
PSI for some local decisions about overload, we strive to avoid packing
workloads too tightly in the first place.  To facilitate this, we track
the peak memory usage.  However, since we run with long-lived workers (to
amortize startup costs) we need a way to track the high watermark while a
work-item is executing.  Polling runs the risk of missing short spikes
that last for timescales below the polling interval, and peak memory
tracking at the cgroup level is otherwise perfect for this use-case.

As this data is used to ensure that binpacked work ends up with sufficient
headroom, this use-case mostly avoids the inaccuracies surrounding
reclaimable memory.

Tejun Heo 4f9c7ca851 sched: Factor out cgroup weight conversion functions
Factor out sched_weight_from/to_cgroup() which convert between scheduler
shares and cgroup weight. No functional change. The factored out functions
will be used by a new BPF extensible sched_class so that the weights can be
exposed to the BPF programs in a way which is consistent cgroup weights and
easier to interpret.

The weight conversions will be used regardless of cgroup usage. It's just
borrowing the cgroup weight range as it's more intuitive.
CGROUP_WEIGHT_MIN/DFL/MAX constants are moved outside CONFIG_CGROUPS so that
the conversion helpers can always be defined.

v2: The helpers are now defined regardless of COFNIG_CGROUPS.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer fc29e04ae1 cgroup/rstat: add cgroup_rstat_lock helpers and tracepoints
This commit enhances the ability to troubleshoot the global
cgroup_rstat_lock by introducing wrapper helper functions for the lock
along with associated tracepoints.

Although global, the cgroup_rstat_lock helper APIs and tracepoints take
arguments such as cgroup pointer and cpu_in_loop variable. This
adjustment is made because flushing occurs per cgroup despite the lock
being global. Hence, when troubleshooting, it's important to identify the
relevant cgroup. The cpu_in_loop variable is necessary because the global
lock may be released within the main flushing loop that traverses CPUs.
In the tracepoints, the cpu_in_loop value is set to -1 when acquiring the
main lock; otherwise, it denotes the CPU number processed last.

The new feature in this patchset is detecting when lock is contended. The
tracepoints are implemented with production in mind. For minimum overhead
attach to cgroup:cgroup_rstat_lock_contended, which only gets activated
when trylock detects lock is contended. A quick production check for
issues could be done via this perf commands:

 perf record -g -e cgroup:cgroup_rstat_lock_contended

Next natural question would be asking how long time do lock contenders
wait for obtaining the lock. This can be answered by measuring the time
between cgroup:cgroup_rstat_lock_contended and cgroup:cgroup_rstat_locked
when args->contended is set.  Like this bpftrace script:

 bpftrace -e '
   tracepoint:cgroup:cgroup_rstat_lock_contended {@start[tid]=nsecs}
   tracepoint:cgroup:cgroup_rstat_locked {
     if (args->contended) {
       @wait_ns=hist(nsecs-@start[tid]); delete(@start[tid]);}}
   interval:s:1 {time("%H:%M:%S "); print(@wait_ns); }'

Extending with time spend holding the lock will be more expensive as this
also looks at all the non-contended cases.
Like this bpftrace script:

 bpftrace -e '
   tracepoint:cgroup:cgroup_rstat_lock_contended {@start[tid]=nsecs}
   tracepoint:cgroup:cgroup_rstat_locked { @locked[tid]=nsecs;
     if (args->contended) {
       @wait_ns=hist(nsecs-@start[tid]); delete(@start[tid]);}}
   tracepoint:cgroup:cgroup_rstat_unlock {
       @locked_ns=hist(nsecs-@locked[tid]); delete(@locked[tid]);}
   interval:s:1 {time("%H:%M:%S ");  print(@wait_ns);print(@locked_ns); }'

A new helper is added for cgroup1 hierarchy:

- task_get_cgroup1
  Acquires the associated cgroup of a task within a specific cgroup1
  hierarchy. The cgroup1 hierarchy is identified by its hierarchy ID.

This helper function is added to facilitate the tracing of tasks within
a particular container or cgroup dir in BPF programs. It's important to
note that this helper is designed specifically for cgroup1 only.
