cgroup: always put cset in cgroup_css_set_put_fork
A successful call to cgroup_css_set_fork() will always have taken a ref on kargs->cset (regardless of CLONE_INTO_CGROUP), so always do a corresponding put in cgroup_css_set_put_fork(). Without this, a cset and its contained css structures will be leaked for some fork failures. The following script reproduces the leak for a fork failure due to exceeding pids.max in the pids controller. A similar thing can happen if we jump to the bad_fork_cancel_cgroup label in copy_process(). [ -z "$1" ] && echo "Usage $0 pids-root" && exit 1 PID_ROOT=$1 CGROUP=$PID_ROOT/foo [ -e $CGROUP ] && rmdir -f $CGROUP mkdir $CGROUP echo 5 > $CGROUP/pids.max echo $$ > $CGROUP/cgroup.procs fork_bomb() { set -e for i in $(seq 10); do /bin/sleep 3600 & done } (fork_bomb) & wait echo $$ > $PID_ROOT/cgroup.procs kill $(cat $CGROUP/cgroup.procs) rmdir $CGROUP Fixes: ef2c41cf38a7 ("clone3: allow spawning processes into cgroups") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v5.7+ Signed-off-by: John Sperbeck <jsperbeck@google.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
