2026-03-24selftests/cgroup: Don't require synchronous populated update on task exitTejun Heo
test_cgcore_populated (test_core) and test_cgkill_{simple,tree,forkbomb} (test_kill) check cgroup.events "populated 0" immediately after reaping child tasks with waitpid(). This used to work because cgroup_task_exit() in do_exit() unlinked tasks from css_sets before exit_notify() woke up waitpid(). d245698d727a ("cgroup: Defer task cgroup unlink until after the task is done switching out") moved the unlink to cgroup_task_dead() in finish_task_switch(), which runs after exit_notify(). The populated counter is now decremented after the parent's waitpid() can return, so there is no longer a synchronous ordering guarantee. On PREEMPT_RT, where cgroup_task_dead() is further deferred through lazy irq_work, the race window is even larger. The synchronous populated transition was never part of the cgroup interface contract - it was an implementation artifact. Use cg_read_strcmp_wait() which retries for up to 1 second, matching what these tests actually need to verify: that the cgroup eventually becomes unpopulated after all tasks exit.

Also preparation for LUO - "Live Update Orchestrator" (Pasha Tatashin) is a major new feature targeted at cloud environments. Quoting the cover letter: This series introduces the Live Update Orchestrator, a kernel subsystem designed to facilitate live kernel updates using a kexec-based reboot. This capability is critical for cloud environments, allowing hypervisors to be updated with minimal downtime for running virtual machines. LUO achieves this by preserving the state of selected resources, such as memory, devices and their dependencies, across the kernel transition. As a key feature, this series includes support for preserving memfd file descriptors, which allows critical in-memory data, such as guest RAM or any other large memory region, to be maintained in RAM across the kexec reboot. Mike Rappaport merits a mention here, for his extensive review and testing work. - "kexec: reorganize kexec and kdump sysfs" (Sourabh Jain) moves the kexec and kdump sysfs entries from /sys/kernel/ to /sys/kernel/kexec/ and adds back-compatibility symlinks which can hopefully be removed one day - "kho: fixes for vmalloc restoration" (Mike Rapoport) fixes a BUG which was being hit during KHO restoration of vmalloc() regions * tag 'mm-nonmm-stable-2025-12-06-11-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (139 commits) calibrate: update header inclusion Reinstate "resource: avoid unnecessary lookups in find_next_iomem_res()" vmcoreinfo: track and log recoverable hardware errors kho: fix restoring of contiguous ranges of order-0 pages kho: kho_restore_vmalloc: fix initialization of pages array MAINTAINERS: TPM DEVICE DRIVER: update the W-tag init: replace simple_strtoul with kstrtoul to improve lpj_setup KHO: fix boot failure due to kmemleak access to non-PRESENT pages Documentation/ABI: new kexec and kdump sysfs interface Documentation/ABI: mark old kexec sysfs deprecated kexec: move sysfs entries to /sys/kernel/kexec test_kho: always print restore status kho: free chunks using free_page() instead of kfree() selftests/liveupdate: add kexec test for multiple and empty sessions selftests/liveupdate: add simple kexec-based selftest for LUO selftests/liveupdate: add userspace API selftests docs: add documentation for memfd preservation via LUO mm: memfd_luo: allow preserving memfd liveupdate: luo_file: add private argument to store runtime state mm: shmem: export some functions to internal.h ...

without nsdelegate The test case test_cgcore_lesser_ns_open only tasks effect when cgroup2 is mounted with "nsdelegate" mount option. If it misses this option, or is remounted without "nsdelegate", the test case will fail. For example, running bpf/test_cgroup_storage first, and then run cgroup/test_core will fail on test_cgcore_lesser_ns_open. Skip it if "nsdelegate" is not detected in cgroup2 mount options.

2018-08-09Add cgroup core selftestsClaudio
This commit adds tests for some of the core functionalities of cgroups v2. The commit adds tests for some core principles of croup V2 API: - test_cgcore_internal_process_constraint Tests internal process constraint. You can't add a pid to a domain parent if a controller is enabled. - test_cgcore_top_down_constraint_enable Tests that you can't enable a controller on a child if it's not enabled on the parent. - test_cgcore_top_down_constraint_disable Tests that you can't disable a controller on a parent if it's enabled in a child. - test_cgcore_no_internal_process_constraint_on_threads Tests that there's no internal process constrain on threaded cgroups. You can add threads/processes on a parent with a controller enabled. - test_cgcore_parent_becomes_threaded Tests that when a child becomes threaded the parent type becomes domain threaded. - test_cgcore_invalid_domain In a situation like: A (domain threaded) - B (threaded) - C (domain) it tests that C can't be used until it is turned into a threaded cgroup. The "cgroup.type" file will report "domain (invalid)" in these cases. Operations which fail due to invalid topology use EOPNOTSUPP as the errno. - test_cgcore_populated In a situation like: A(0) - B(0) - C(1) \ D(0) It tests that A, B and C's "populated" fields would be 1 while D's 0. It tests that after the one process in C is moved to root, A,B and C's "populated" fields would flip to "0" and file modified events will be generated on the "cgroup.events" files of both cgroups.
