    sched: Fix PROVE_RCU vs cpu_cgroup · dc61b1d6
    Peter Zijlstra 提交于
    PROVE_RCU has a few issues with the cpu_cgroup because the scheduler
    typically holds rq->lock around the css rcu derefs but the generic
    cgroup code doesn't (and can't) know about that lock.
    
    Provide means to add extra checks to the css dereference and use that
    in the scheduler to annotate its users.
    
    The addition of rq->lock to these checks is correct because the
    cgroup_subsys::attach() method takes the rq->lock for each task it
    moves, therefore by holding that lock, we ensure the task is pinned to
    the current cgroup and the RCU derefence is valid.
    
    That leaves one genuine race in __sched_setscheduler() where we used
    task_group() without holding any of the required locks and thus raced
    with the cgroup code. Solve this by moving the check under the
    appropriate lock.
