Felix Moessbauer 54a987b41d io_uring/sqpoll: do not allow pinning outside of cpuset
commit f011c9cf04c06f16b24f583d313d3c012e589e50 upstream.

The submit queue polling threads are userland threads that just never
exit to the userland. When creating the thread with IORING_SETUP_SQ_AFF,
the affinity of the poller thread is set to the cpu specified in
sq_thread_cpu. However, this CPU can be outside of the cpuset defined
by the cgroup cpuset controller. This violates the rules defined by the
cpuset controller and is a potential issue for realtime applications.

In b7ed6d8ffd6 we fixed the default affinity of the poller thread, in
case no explicit pinning is required by inheriting the one of the
creating task. In case of explicit pinning, the check is more
complicated, as also a cpu outside of the parent cpumask is allowed.
We implemented this by using cpuset_cpus_allowed (that has support for
cgroup cpusets) and testing if the requested cpu is in the set.

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.
