Subject: [PATCH] sched: fix potential use-after-free with cfs bandwidth
Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2025 11:51:17 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250210195117.1074569-1-joshdon@google.com> (raw)
We remove the cfs_rq throttled_csd_list entry *before* doing the
unthrottle. The problem with that is that destroy_bandwidth() does a
lockless scan of the system for any non-empty CSD lists. As a result,
it is possible that destroy_bandwidth() returns while we still have a
cfs_rq from the task group about to be unthrottled.
For full correctness, we should avoid removal from the list until after
we're done unthrottling in __cfsb_csd_unthrottle().
For consistency, we make the same change to distribute_cfs_runtime(),
even though this should already be safe due to destroy_bandwidth()
cancelling the bandwidth hrtimers.
