cgroups: fix probable race with put_css_set[_taskexit] and find_css_set
put_css_set_taskexit may be called when find_css_set is called on other cpu. And the race will occur: put_css_set_taskexit side find_css_set side | atomic_dec_and_test(&kref->refcount) | /* kref->refcount = 0 */ | .................................................................... | read_lock(&css_set_lock) | find_existing_css_set | get_css_set | read_unlock(&css_set_lock); .................................................................... __release_css_set | .................................................................... | /* use a released css_set */ | [put_css_set is the same. But in the current code, all put_css_set are put into cgroup mutex critical region as the same as find_css_set.] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: repair comments] [menage@google.com: eliminate race in css_set refcounting] Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@in.ibm.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Menage <menage@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
