cgroup: Move rcu_head up near the top of cgroup_root

2024-10-17T13:07:38+00:00

commit a7fb0423c201ba12815877a0b5a68a6a1710b23a upstream. Commit d23b5c577715 ("cgroup: Make operations on the cgroup root_list RCU safe") adds a new rcu_head to the cgroup_root structure and kvfree_rcu() for freeing the cgroup_root. The current implementation of kvfree_rcu(), however, has the limitation that the offset of the rcu_head structure within the larger data structure must be less than 4096 or the compilation will fail. See the macro definition of __is_kvfree_rcu_offset() in include/linux/rcupdate.h for more information. By putting rcu_head below the large cgroup structure, any change to the cgroup structure that makes it larger run the risk of causing build failure under certain configurations. Commit 77070eeb8821 ("cgroup: Avoid false cacheline sharing of read mostly rstat_cpu") happens to be the last straw that breaks it. Fix this problem by moving the rcu_head structure up before the cgroup structure.

cgroup: Make operations on the cgroup root_list RCU safe

2024-10-17T13:07:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit d23b5c577715892c87533b13923306acc6243f93 ] At present, when we perform operations on the cgroup root_list, we must hold the cgroup_mutex, which is a relatively heavyweight lock. In reality, we can make operations on this list RCU-safe, eliminating the need to hold the cgroup_mutex during traversal. Modifications to the list only occur in the cgroup root setup and destroy paths, which should be infrequent in a production environment. In contrast, traversal may occur frequently. Therefore, making it RCU-safe would be beneficial. Signed-off-by: Yafang Shao Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

bpf, cgroups: Fix cgroup v2 fallback on v1/v2 mixed mode

2024-09-12T09:06:42+00:00

From: Daniel Borkmann commit 8520e224f547cd070c7c8f97b1fc6d58cff7ccaa upstream. Fix cgroup v1 interference when non-root cgroup v2 BPF programs are used. Back in the days, commit bd1060a1d671 ("sock, cgroup: add sock->sk_cgroup") embedded per-socket cgroup information into sock->sk_cgrp_data and in order to save 8 bytes in struct sock made both mutually exclusive, that is, when cgroup v1 socket tagging (e.g. net_cls/net_prio) is used, then cgroup v2 falls back to the root cgroup in sock_cgroup_ptr() (&cgrp_dfl_root.cgrp). The assumption made was "there is no reason to mix the two and this is in line with how legacy and v2 compatibility is handled" as stated in bd1060a1d671. However, with Kubernetes more widely supporting cgroups v2 as well nowadays, this assumption no longer holds, and the possibility of the v1/v2 mixed mode with the v2 root fallback being hit becomes a real security issue. Many of the cgroup v2 BPF programs are also used for policy enforcement, just to pick _one_ example, that is, to programmatically deny socket related system calls like connect(2) or bind(2). A v2 root fallback would implicitly cause a policy bypass for the affected Pods. In production environments, we have recently seen this case due to various circumstances: i) a different 3rd party agent and/or ii) a container runtime such as [0] in the user's environment configuring legacy cgroup v1 net_cls tags, which triggered implicitly mentioned root fallback. Another case is Kubernetes projects like kind [1] which create Kubernetes nodes in a container and also add cgroup namespaces to the mix, meaning programs which are attached to the cgroup v2 root of the cgroup namespace get attached to a non-root cgroup v2 path from init namespace point of view. And the latter's root is out of reach for agents on a kind Kubernetes node to configure. Meaning, any entity on the node setting cgroup v1 net_cls tag will trigger the bypass despite cgroup v2 BPF programs attached to the namespace root. Generally, this mutual exclusiveness does not hold anymore in today's user environments and makes cgroup v2 usage from BPF side fragile and unreliable. This fix adds proper struct cgroup pointer for the cgroup v2 case to struct sock_cgroup_data in order to address these issues; this implicitly also fixes the tradeoffs being made back then with regards to races and refcount leaks as stated in bd1060a1d671, and removes the fallback, so that cgroup v2 BPF programs always operate as expected.

cgroup: Use separate src/dst nodes when preloading css_sets for migration

2022-07-21T19:20:00+00:00

commit 07fd5b6cdf3cc30bfde8fe0f644771688be04447 upstream. Each cset (css_set) is pinned by its tasks. When we're moving tasks around across csets for a migration, we need to hold the source and destination csets to ensure that they don't go away while we're moving tasks about. This is done by linking cset->mg_preload_node on either the mgctx->preloaded_src_csets or mgctx->preloaded_dst_csets list. Using the same cset->mg_preload_node for both the src and dst lists was deemed okay as a cset can't be both the source and destination at the same time. Unfortunately, this overloading becomes problematic when multiple tasks are involved in a migration and some of them are identity noop migrations while others are actually moving across cgroups. For example, this can happen with the following sequence on cgroup1: #1> mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/misc/a/b #2> echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/misc/a/cgroup.procs #3> RUN_A_COMMAND_WHICH_CREATES_MULTIPLE_THREADS & #4> PID=$! #5> echo $PID > /sys/fs/cgroup/misc/a/b/tasks #6> echo $PID > /sys/fs/cgroup/misc/a/cgroup.procs the process including the group leader back into a. In this final migration, non-leader threads would be doing identity migration while the group leader is doing an actual one. After #3, let's say the whole process was in cset A, and that after #4, the leader moves to cset B. Then, during #6, the following happens: 1. cgroup_migrate_add_src() is called on B for the leader. 2. cgroup_migrate_add_src() is called on A for the other threads. 3. cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst() is called. It scans the src list. 4. It notices that B wants to migrate to A, so it tries to A to the dst list but realizes that its ->mg_preload_node is already busy. 5. and then it notices A wants to migrate to A as it's an identity migration, it culls it by list_del_init()'ing its ->mg_preload_node and putting references accordingly. 6. The rest of migration takes place with B on the src list but nothing on the dst list. This means that A isn't held while migration is in progress. If all tasks leave A before the migration finishes and the incoming task pins it, the cset will be destroyed leading to use-after-free. This is caused by overloading cset->mg_preload_node for both src and dst preload lists. We wanted to exclude the cset from the src list but ended up inadvertently excluding it from the dst list too. This patch fixes the issue by separating out cset->mg_preload_node into ->mg_src_preload_node and ->mg_dst_preload_node, so that the src and dst preloadings don't interfere with each other.

cgroup: fix cgroup_sk_alloc() for sk_clone_lock()

2020-07-07T20:34:11+00:00

When we clone a socket in sk_clone_lock(), its sk_cgrp_data is copied, so the cgroup refcnt must be taken too. And, unlike the sk_alloc() path, sock_update_netprioidx() is not called here. Therefore, it is safe and necessary to grab the cgroup refcnt even when cgroup_sk_alloc is disabled. sk_clone_lock() is in BH context anyway, the in_interrupt() would terminate this function if called there. And for sk_alloc() skcd->val is always zero. So it's safe to factor out the code to make it more readable. The global variable 'cgroup_sk_alloc_disabled' is used to determine whether to take these reference counts. It is impossible to make the reference counting correct unless we save this bit of information in skcd->val. So, add a new bit there to record whether the socket has already taken the reference counts. This obviously relies on kmalloc() to align cgroup pointers to at least 4 bytes, ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is certainly larger than that. This bug seems to be introduced since the beginning, commit d979a39d7242 ("cgroup: duplicate cgroup reference when cloning sockets") tried to fix it but not compeletely. It seems not easy to trigger until the recent commit 090e28b229af ("netprio_cgroup: Fix unlimited memory leak of v2 cgroups") was merged.

mm: memcontrol: recursive memory.low protection

2020-04-02T16:35:28+00:00

Right now, the effective protection of any given cgroup is capped by its own explicit memory.low setting, regardless of what the parent says. The reasons for this are mostly historical and ease of implementation: to make delegation of memory.low safe, effective protection is the min() of all memory.low up the tree. Unfortunately, this limitation makes it impossible to protect an entire subtree from another without forcing the user to make explicit protection allocations all the way to the leaf cgroups - something that is highly undesirable in real life scenarios. Consider memory in a data center host. At the cgroup top level, we have a distinction between system management software and the actual workload the system is executing. Both branches are further subdivided into individual services, job components etc. We want to protect the workload as a whole from the system management software, but that doesn't mean we want to protect and prioritize individual workload wrt each other. Their memory demand can vary over time, and we'd want the VM to simply cache the hottest data within the workload subtree. Yet, the current memory.low limitations force us to allocate a fixed amount of protection to each workload component in order to get protection from system management software in general. This results in very inefficient resource distribution. Another concern with mandating downward allocation is that, as the complexity of the cgroup tree grows, it gets harder for the lower levels to be informed about decisions made at the host-level. Consider a container inside a namespace that in turn creates its own nested tree of cgroups to run multiple workloads. It'd be extremely difficult to configure memory.low parameters in those leaf cgroups that on one hand balance pressure among siblings as the container desires, while also reflecting the host-level protection from e.g. rpm upgrades, that lie beyond one or more delegation and namespacing points in the tree. It's highly unusual from a cgroup interface POV that nested levels have to be aware of and reflect decisions made at higher levels for them to be effective. To enable such use cases and scale configurability for complex trees, this patch implements a resource inheritance model for memory that is similar to how the CPU and the IO controller implement work-conserving resource allocations: a share of a resource allocated to a subree always applies to the entire subtree recursively, while allowing, but not mandating, children to further specify distribution rules. That means that if protection is explicitly allocated among siblings, those configured shares are being followed during page reclaim just like they are now. However, if the memory.low set at a higher level is not fully claimed by the children in that subtree, the "floating" remainder is applied to each cgroup in the tree in proportion to its size. Since reclaim pressure is applied in proportion to size as well, each child in that tree gets the same boost, and the effect is neutral among siblings - with respect to each other, they behave as if no memory control was enabled at all, and the VM simply balances the memory demands optimally within the subtree. But collectively those cgroups enjoy a boost over the cgroups in neighboring trees. E.g. a leaf cgroup with a memory.low setting of 0 no longer means that it's not getting a share of the hierarchically assigned resource, just that it doesn't claim a fixed amount of it to protect from its siblings. This allows us to recursively protect one subtree (workload) from another (system management), while letting subgroups compete freely among each other - without having to assign fixed shares to each leaf, and without nested groups having to echo higher-level settings. The floating protection composes naturally with fixed protection. Consider the following example tree: A A: low = 2G / \ A1: low = 1G A1 A2 A2: low = 0G As outside pressure is applied to this tree, A1 will enjoy a fixed protection from A2 of 1G, but the remaining, unclaimed 1G from A is split evenly among A1 and A2, coming out to 1.5G and 0.5G. There is a slight risk of regressing theoretical setups where the top-level cgroups don't know about the true budgeting and set bogusly high "bypass" values that are meaningfully allocated down the tree. Such setups would rely on unclaimed protection to be discarded, and distributing it would change the intended behavior. Be safe and hide the new behavior behind a mount option, 'memory_recursiveprot'.

clone3: allow spawning processes into cgroups

2020-02-12T22:57:51+00:00

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.

cgroup: use cgrp->kn->id as the cgroup ID

2019-11-12T16:18:04+00:00

cgroup ID is currently allocated using a dedicated per-hierarchy idr and used internally and exposed through tracepoints and bpf. This is confusing because there are tracepoints and other interfaces which use the cgroupfs ino as IDs. The preceding changes made kn->id exposed as ino as 64bit ino on supported archs or ino+gen (low 32bits as ino, high gen). There's no reason for cgroup to use different IDs. The kernfs IDs are unique and userland can easily discover them and map them back to paths using standard file operations. This patch replaces cgroup IDs with kernfs IDs. * cgroup_id() is added and all cgroup ID users are converted to use it. * kernfs_node creation is moved to earlier during cgroup init so that cgroup_id() is available during init. * While at it, s/cgroup/cgrp/ in psi helpers for consistency. * Fallback ID value is changed to 1 to be consistent with root cgroup ID.
