Pull scheduler fixes from Ingo Molnar: - Fix scheduler frequency invariance bug related to overly long tickless periods triggering an integer overflow and disabling the feature. - Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr(). - Fix do_set_cpus_allowed() deadlock scenarios related to calling kfree() with the pi_lock held. NOTE: the rcu_free() is the 'lazy' solution here - we looked at patches to free the structure after the pi_lock got dropped, but that looked quite a bit messier - and none of this is truly performance critical. We can revisit this if it's too lazy of a solution ... * tag 'sched-urgent-2023-01-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: sched/core: Use kfree_rcu() in do_set_cpus_allowed() sched/core: Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr() sched/core: Fix arch_scale_freq_tick() on tickless systems
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
