A single partition setup and tear-down operation can lead to
multiple rebuild_sched_domains_locked() calls which is a waste of
effort. This can partly be mitigated by adding a flag to suppress the
rebuild_sched_domains_locked() call in update_cpumasks_hier(). Since
a Boolean flag has already been passed as the 3rd argument to
update_cpumasks_hier(), we can extend that to a full flag word.
The sched domain rebuild suppression is now enabled in
update_sibling_cpumasks() as all it callers will do the sched domain
rebuild after its return later on anyway.

The limitation that update_parent_subparts_cpumask() can only use
addmask & delmask in the given tmp cpumasks is fragile and may lead to
unexpected error.
Fix this problem by allocating/freeing a struct tmpmasks in
update_cpumask() to avoid reusing the cpumasks in trial_cs.
With this change, we can move the update_tasks_cpumask() for the
parent and update_sibling_cpumasks() for the sibling to inside
update_parent_subparts_cpumask().

Add a separate testfile to verify treating permissions when tasks are
migrated on cgroup v2 hierarchy between cpuset cgroups.
In accordance with v2 design, migration should be allowed based on

another process (even privileged) as long as it remains in the original

When we migrate a task between two cgroups, one of the checks is a
verification whether we can modify task's scheduler settings
(cap_task_setscheduler()).
An implicit migration occurs also when enabling a controller on the
unified hierarchy (think of parent to child migration). The
aforementioned check may be problematic if the caller of the migration
(enabling a controller) has no permissions over migrated tasks.
For instance, a user's cgroup that ends up running a process of a
different user. Although cgroup permissions are configured favorably,
the enablement fails due to the foreign process [1].
Change the behavior by relaxing the permissions check on the unified
hierarchy when no effective change would happen.
This is in accordance with unified hierarchy attachment behavior when
permissions of the source to target cgroups are decisive whereas the
migrated task is opaque (as opposed to more restrictive check in
__cgroup1_procs_write()).
Notice that foreign task's affinity may still be modified if the user
can modify destination cgroup's cpuset attributes
(update_tasks_cpumask() does no permissions check). The permissions
check could thus be skipped on v2 even when affinity changes. Stay
conservative in this patch though.

fork: lock VMAs of the parent process when forking
When forking a child process, the parent write-protects anonymous pages
and COW-shares them with the child being forked using copy_present_pte().
We must not take any concurrent page faults on the source vma's as they
are being processed, as we expect both the vma and the pte's behind it
to be stable. For example, the anon_vma_fork() expects the parents
vma->anon_vma to not change during the vma copy.
A concurrent page fault on a page newly marked read-only by the page
copy might trigger wp_page_copy() and a anon_vma_prepare(vma) on the
source vma, defeating the anon_vma_clone() that wasn't done because the
parent vma originally didn't have an anon_vma, but we now might end up
copying a pte entry for a page that has one.
Before the per-vma lock based changes, the mmap_lock guaranteed
exclusion with concurrent page faults. But now we need to do a
vma_start_write() to make sure no concurrent faults happen on this vma
while it is being processed.
This fix can potentially regress some fork-heavy workloads. Kernel
build time did not show noticeable regression on a 56-core machine while
a stress test mapping 10000 VMAs and forking 5000 times in a tight loop
shows ~5% regression. If such fork time regression is unacceptable,
disabling CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK should restore its performance. Further
optimizations are possible if this regression proves to be problematic.

mmap_region adds a newly created VMA into VMA tree and might modify it
afterwards before dropping the mmap_lock. This poses a problem for page
faults handled under per-VMA locks because they don't take the mmap_lock
and can stumble on this VMA while it's still being modified. Currently
this does not pose a problem since post-addition modifications are done
only for file-backed VMAs, which are not handled under per-VMA lock.
However, once support for handling file-backed page faults with per-VMA
locks is added, this will become a race.
Fix this by write-locking the VMA before inserting it into the VMA tree.
Other places where a new VMA is added into VMA tree do not modify it
after the insertion, so do not need the same locking.

That happens because a BUG() statement in huge_pte_alloc() attempts to
check that a pte, if present, is a hugetlb pte, but it does so in a
non-lockless-safe manner that leads to a false BUG() report.
We got here due to a couple of bugs, each of which by itself was not quite
enough to cause a problem:
First of all, before commit c33c794828f2("mm: ptep_get() conversion"), the
BUG() statement in huge_pte_alloc() was itself fragile: it relied upon
compiler behavior to only read the pte once, despite using it twice in the
same conditional.
Next, commit c33c794828 ("mm: ptep_get() conversion") broke that
delicate situation, by causing all direct pte reads to be done via
READ_ONCE(). And so READ_ONCE() got called twice within the same BUG()
conditional, leading to comparing (potentially, occasionally) different
versions of the pte, and thus to false BUG() reports.
Fix this by taking a single snapshot of the pte before using it in the
BUG conditional.
Now, that commit is only partially to blame here but, people doing
bisections will invariably land there, so this will help them find a fix
for a real crash. And also, the previous behavior was unlikely to ever
expose this bug--it was fragile, yet not actually broken.
So that's why I chose this commit for the Fixes tag, rather than the
commit that created the original BUG() statement.
