From 710da3c8ea7dfbd327920afd3831d8c82c42789d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Juri Lelli Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2019 16:00:00 +0200 Subject: sched/core: Prevent race condition between cpuset and __sched_setscheduler() No synchronisation mechanism exists between the cpuset subsystem and calls to function __sched_setscheduler(). As such, it is possible that new root domains are created on the cpuset side while a deadline acceptance test is carried out in __sched_setscheduler(), leading to a potential oversell of CPU bandwidth. Grab cpuset_rwsem read lock from core scheduler, so to prevent situations such as the one described above from happening. The only exception is normalize_rt_tasks() which needs to work under tasklist_lock and can't therefore grab cpuset_rwsem. We are fine with this, as this function is only called by sysrq and, if that gets triggered, DEADLINE guarantees are already gone out of the window anyway.
