selftests/cgroup: Don't require synchronous populated update on task exit

2026-04-11T12:29:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6680c162b4850976ee52b57372eddc4450c1d074 ] test_cgcore_populated (test_core) and test_cgkill_{simple,tree,forkbomb} (test_kill) check cgroup.events "populated 0" immediately after reaping child tasks with waitpid(). This used to work because cgroup_task_exit() in do_exit() unlinked tasks from css_sets before exit_notify() woke up waitpid(). d245698d727a ("cgroup: Defer task cgroup unlink until after the task is done switching out") moved the unlink to cgroup_task_dead() in finish_task_switch(), which runs after exit_notify(). The populated counter is now decremented after the parent's waitpid() can return, so there is no longer a synchronous ordering guarantee. On PREEMPT_RT, where cgroup_task_dead() is further deferred through lazy irq_work, the race window is even larger. The synchronous populated transition was never part of the cgroup interface contract - it was an implementation artifact. Use cg_read_strcmp_wait() which retries for up to 1 second, matching what these tests actually need to verify: that the cgroup eventually becomes unpopulated after all tasks exit.

Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton: - "panic: sys_info: Refactor and fix a potential issue" (Andy Shevchenko) fixes a build issue and does some cleanup in ib/sys_info.c - "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()" (David Laight) enhances the 64-bit math code on behalf of a PWM driver and beefs up the test module for these library functions - "scripts/gdb/symbols: make BPF debug info available to GDB" (Ilya Leoshkevich) makes BPF symbol names, sizes, and line numbers available to the GDB debugger - "Enable hung_task and lockup cases to dump system info on demand" (Feng Tang) adds a sysctl which can be used to cause additional info dumping when the hung-task and lockup detectors fire - "lib/base64: add generic encoder/decoder, migrate users" (Kuan-Wei Chiu) adds a general base64 encoder/decoder to lib/ and migrates several users away from their private implementations - "rbree: inline rb_first() and rb_last()" (Eric Dumazet) makes TCP a little faster - "liveupdate: Rework KHO for in-kernel users" (Pasha Tatashin) reworks the KEXEC Handover interfaces in preparation for Live Update Orchestrator (LUO), and possibly for other future clients - "kho: simplify state machine and enable dynamic updates" (Pasha Tatashin) increases the flexibility of KEXEC Handover. Also preparation for LUO - "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin) is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the cover letter: This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition. As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec reboot. Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and testing work. - "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain) moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to /sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can hopefully be removed one day - "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" (Mike Rapoport) fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of vmalloc() regions * tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2025-12-06-11-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (139 commits) calibrate: update header inclusion Reinstate "resource: avoid unnecessary lookups in find_next_iomem_res()" vmcoreinfo: track and log recoverable hardware errors kho: fix restoring of contiguous ranges of order-0 pages kho: kho_restore_vmalloc: fix initialization of pages array MAINTAINERS: TPM DEVICE DRIVER: update the W-tag init: replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul to improve lpj_setup KHO: fix boot failure due to kmemleak access to non-PRESENT pages Documentation/ABI: new kexec and kdump sysfs interface Documentation/ABI: mark old kexec sysfs deprecated kexec: move sysfs entries to /sys/kernel/kexec test_kho: always print restore status kho: free chunks using free_page() instead of kfree() selftests/liveupdate: add kexec test for multiple and empty sessions selftests/liveupdate: add simple kexec-based selftest for LUO selftests/liveupdate: add userspace API selftests docs: add documentation for memfd preservation via LUO mm: memfd_luo: allow preserving memfd liveupdate: luo_file: add private argument to store runtime state mm: shmem: export some functions to internal.h ...

selftests: cgroup: skip test_cgcore_lesser_ns_open when cgroup2 mounted without nsdelegate

2024-04-03T19:42:13+00:00

The test case test_cgcore_lesser_ns_open only tasks effect when cgroup2 is mounted with "nsdelegate" mount option. If it misses this option, or is remounted without "nsdelegate", the test case will fail. For example, running bpf/test_cgroup_storage first, and then run cgroup/test_core will fail on test_cgcore_lesser_ns_open. Skip it if "nsdelegate" is not detected in cgroup2 mount options.
