14 daysfs/resctrl: Ensure default group reports tasks on monitor-only systemsTony Luck1-1/+1
resctrl can be mounted on a system that supports monitoring but not allocation. On such a system reading the "tasks" file in the default group reports no tasks, even when there are tasks assigned to the default group. This problem occurs because the check for whether a task belongs to a CTRL_MON group is gated by a check for whether the system supports allocation. The resctrl_arch_alloc_capable() check in is_closid_match() breaks task reporting for the default group on monitor-only systems so remove this check. On systems that support allocation the check is redundant.

2026-09-30x86,fs/resctrl: Add event group descriptions for Intel Diamond RapidsTony Luck1-0/+2
Intel Diamond Rapids exposes Application Energy Telemetry through two new PMT aggregator GUIDs: one covering the "energy" feature, and one covering the "perf" feature, both documented in the Intel-PMT XML repository at https://github.com/intel/Intel-PMT The "perf" aggregator references two events not previously enumerated by resctrl: retired instructions (INST_RETIRED), and a count of unhalted core clock cycles perceived by hardware as contributing to instruction execution (PCNT). Add definitions for both aggregators, and add the two new events to the resctrl filesystem so they can be exposed to user space.

2026-09-14fs/resctrl: Factor MBA parse-time conversion to be per-archDave Martin1-3/+3
The control value parser for the MB resource currently coerces the memory bandwidth percentage value from userspace to be an exact multiple of the rdt_resource::resctrl_membw::bw_gran parameter. On MPAM systems, this results in somewhat worse-than-worst-case rounding, since the bandwidth granularity advertised to resctrl by the MPAM driver is in general only an approximation to the actual hardware granularity on these systems, and the hardware bandwidth allocation control value is not natively a percentage -- necessitating a further conversion in the resctrl_arch_update_domains() path, regardless of the conversion done at parse time. For MPAM and x86 use their custom pre-prepared parse-time conversion, resctrl_arch_preconvert_bw(). This will avoid accumulated error from rounding the value twice on MPAM systems. For x86 systems there is no functional change. Clarify the documentation, but avoid overly exact promises. Clamping to bw_min and bw_max still feels generic: leave it in the core code, for now.

2026-07-26fs/resctrl: Change last_cmd_status custom during input parsingReinette Chatre3-79/+120
A pattern of usage of last_cmd_status was introduced during its enabling in commit c377dcfbee80 ("x86/intel_rdt: Add diagnostics when writing the schemata file") and since copied throughout resctrl to result in the following custom: ..._write() { /* Early parsing of input, exit on failure. */ /* Obtain rdtgroup_mutex */ rdt_last_cmd_clear(); /* Clear last_cmd_status buffer */ /* * Act on user command, failures result in detail * error message in last_cmd_status buffer via * rdt_last_cmd_puts()/rdt_last_cmd_printf(). */ /* Release rdtgroup_mutex */ } If resctrl exits with failure during early parsing of input there are two possible scenarios: - The last_cmd_status buffer is empty and a user's read of info/last_cmd_status returns "ok". - The last_cmd_status buffer contains details from an earlier ...write() failure and a user's read of info/last_cmd_status returns this outdated error description. Writing to a resctrl file is considered a "resctrl command" and the resctrl documentation states the following about the last_cmd_status file: "If the command failed, it will provide more information that can be conveyed in the error returns from file operations." Neither of the current scenarios is correct behavior. Move early input parsing to be done with rdtgroup_mutex held after the last_cmd_status buffer is cleared.

The staged configs cleared during an error exit may not have been used at the time of exit making the clearing of the staged configs unnecessary.

Reading of event data is managed through populating a struct rmid_read with properties of event needing to be read. This data is dispatched to an appropriate CPU and upon completion any error can be found in rmid_read::err, or on success the event data will be in rmid_read::val. rmid_read::err is not updated in the unlikely scenario that the reading of the event was dispatched to a wrong CPU. If this ever occurs due to a bug in resctrl the user space read will return "success" but the data reported will be invalid.

2026-07-13fs/resctrl: Fix UAF from worker threads when domains are removedReinette Chatre2-15/+97
The mbm_handle_overflow() and cqm_handle_limbo() workers read event counters and may sleep while doing so. They are scheduled via delayed_work embedded in struct rdt_l3_mon_domain. Architecture allocates and frees these domains from CPU hotplug callbacks under cpus_write_lock(), and the workers acquire cpus_read_lock() to keep the domain alive across their access. A use-after-free can occur when a worker is blocked waiting for cpus_read_lock() while the hotplug core holds cpus_write_lock(): the architecture frees the rdt_l3_mon_domain that contains the worker's work_struct. When the worker unblocks, the container_of() it performs on the embedded work pointer dereferences freed memory. Drop cpus_read_lock() from the workers and instead drain pending and in-flight work synchronously before the architecture can free the domain. Since architecture offlines the domain under cpus_write_lock() after it has been unlinked from the RCU list and a grace period has elapsed, no new work can be scheduled. The cancel only needs to wait out existing work. Drop rdtgroup_mutex during CPU offline around cancel_delayed_work_sync() so that a worker waiting on the mutex can complete before re-pinning the work on a different CPU. When offlining a CPU the architecture may iterate over resources in any order. For example, the MBA control domain may be offlined before or after a corresponding L3 monitor domain. Ensure that resctrl fs cancels the workers no matter what order the architecture offlines the domains.

2026-07-13fs/resctrl: Prevent deadlock and use-after-free in info file handlersReinette Chatre4-79/+202
resctrl provides files under the info/ directory to expose global configuration and capabilities to userspace. These files are instantiated statically during filesystem mount and expose data associated with internal schema structures via kernfs private pointers. A potential deadlock exists between userspace readers of these info files and the unmount filesystem teardown process. Reading an info file invokes kernfs which acquires an active reference, after which the handler typically attempts to acquire the rdtgroup_mutex. Concurrently, unmounting the filesystem holds the rdtgroup_mutex and then attempts to recursively remove the info kernfs nodes involving kernfs_drain() which blocks until all active references are released. Another problem exists where info files might be accessed from an outdated mount if the filesystem is unmounted and remounted during a reader's execution, leading to a use-after-free when reading the now-deleted private schema data. Introduce info_kn_lock() and info_kn_unlock() helpers to coordinate locking across all info handlers. These helpers mirror similar logic used by resource group handlers by deliberately breaking the kernfs active protection before attempting to acquire the rdtgroup_mutex, preventing the deadlock. To guard against the vulnerability from rapid mount cycling, info_kn_lock() securely walks the parent lineage of the kernfs node under an RCU section to confirm the node belongs to the globally active root before permitting the operation to proceed. Convert all info file handlers to use this helper and only de-reference the schema after it is determined safe to do so. Make no attempt to output an error message to last_cmd_status on failure since failure implies there is no filesystem with which to display the error to user space.

2026-07-13fs/resctrl: Prevent use-after-free in rdtgroup_kn_put()Reinette Chatre1-5/+14
A struct rdtgroup is reference counted via rdtgroup::waitcount. Callers that need the structure to remain valid across a sleep (while waiting on acquiring rdtgroup_mutex) take a reference with rdtgroup_kn_get() and release it with rdtgroup_kn_put(). The release path is intended to serve as the fallback freer: if the count drops to zero and the group has already been marked RDT_DELETED, rdtgroup_kn_put() frees the structure. The bulk teardown paths free_all_child_rdtgrp() and rmdir_all_sub() resulting from a resctrl directory remove or resctrl fs unmount act as the primary freer: they hold rdtgroup_mutex and free each rdtgroup whose waitcount is zero, otherwise they set RDT_DELETED and leave the freeing to the last waiter. These two freers race. rdtgroup_kn_put() commits waitcount == 0 with atomic_dec_and_test() outside rdtgroup_mutex, then reads rdtgroup::flags. Between those two operations a concurrent caller of free_all_child_rdtgrp() or rmdir_all_sub() (which holds the mutex) can observe waitcount == 0 via atomic_read(), call rdtgroup_remove(), and kfree() the structure. The subsequent read of rdtgroup::flags in rdtgroup_kn_put() is then a use-after-free, and the structure may even be freed twice if the freed memory happens to satisfy the RDT_DELETED flag check. Replace the bare atomic_dec_and_test() with atomic_dec_and_mutex_lock() so that the decrement-to-zero takes rdtgroup_mutex before the count becomes globally visible. The inspection of rdtgroup::flags then runs under the same mutex held by the bulk freers, making the two paths mutually exclusive. The common case where the count does not reach zero remains lock-free. Defer kernfs_unbreak_active_protection() until after the mutex is dropped since kernfs active protections functionally wrap rdtgroup_mutex. Remove resource group, which in turn drops its kernfs reference, after kernfs protection is restored.

2026-07-13fs/resctrl: Fix deadlock on errors during mountReinette Chatre1-27/+56
rdt_get_tree() acquires rdtgroup_mutex before calling kernfs_get_tree(). If superblock setup fails inside kernfs_get_tree(), the VFS calls .kill_sb() (rdt_kill_sb()) on the same thread before kernfs_get_tree() returns. rdt_kill_sb() unconditionally attempts to acquire rdtgroup_mutex and deadlock occurs. Since mount failure resulting from kernfs_get_tree() already calls the resctrl fs unmount handler (rdt_kill_sb()) let both call the same helper to make it clear both paths perform the same cleanup. Call kernfs_get_tree() outside of locks. If kernfs_get_tree() fails and ctx->kfc.new_sb_created is set, then rdt_kill_sb() has already been called and no further cleanup is needed. kernfs_get_tree() may set ctx->kfc.new_sb_created and then fail to obtain an inode for the new kn, causing the rdt_kill_sb() path to run with one fewer reference than required for the root to remain accessible in kernfs_kill_sb(). Add an extra hold on rdtgroup_default.kn to defend against this scenario and ensure the root can be dereferenced safely from kernfs_kill_sb(). Dropping locks before kernfs_get_tree() creates a window where CPU hotplug callbacks can race with the mount operation. Specifically, an online event observing resctrl_mounted == true could concurrently append directories to the unactivated kernfs tree, allocate mon_data structures, and arm background workers. This concurrency is safe because the mount has not yet returned to the VFS, meaning userspace cannot interact with these transient files. If kernfs_get_tree() subsequently fails, the standard resctrl_unmount() teardown safely manages the concurrent modifications: any dynamically generated kernfs nodes are removed, and the associated memory is freed. Any background workers spawned by the hotplug event will naturally exit without re-arming when they acquire rdtgroup_mutex and observe resctrl_mounted == false.

2026-07-13x86,fs/resctrl: Document safe RCU list traversalReinette Chatre4-27/+34
rdt_resource::ctrl_domains and rdt_resource::mon_domains are RCU lists with entries added and removed by architecture from CPU hotplug callbacks that are run with cpus_write_lock() held. These lists can be traversed safely from resctrl fs by either holding cpus_read_lock() or relying on an RCU read-side critical section. resctrl fs traversals of rdt_resource::ctrl_domains and rdt_resource::mon_domains are done using list_for_each_entry() with cpus_read_lock() held. Similarly, x86 architecture callbacks use list_for_each_entry() expecting that resctrl fs makes the call with cpus_read_lock() held. Inconsistently, a lockdep_assert_cpus_held() precedes the list_for_each_entry() call with varying distance to document this safe RCU list traversal. In preparation for an upcoming traversal of rdt_resource::ctrl_domains that needs to be done from RCU read-side critical section there is a requirement for developers to always know exactly in which context the list is being traversed. Replace the list_for_each_entry() traversals of RCU list with list_for_each_entry_rcu() to document that an RCU list is being traversed while making use of the built-in lockdep expression that additionally documents that it is cpus_read_lock() that enables the list to be traversed from non-RCU protection. Only revert to documenting the safety of traversal using a comment when lockdep does not have needed visibility in functions called via smp_call*(). The lockdep expression within list_for_each_entry_rcu() depends on RCU_EXPERT that is not set in a typical debug kernel so keep the existing lockdep_assert_cpus_held() that is active with CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y found in typical debug kernel.

2026-07-06fs/resctrl: Fix use-after-free during unmountTony Luck1-2/+16
During unmount or failure teardown all mon_data structures that contain monitoring event file private data are freed after which kernfs nodes are removed. However, the RDT_DELETED flag is never set for the statically allocated default resource group. A concurrent reader of an event file associated with the default resource group may, after dropping kernfs active protection, block on rdtgroup_mutex while unmount proceeds to free the file private data and destroy the kernfs node without waiting for the reader. When the mutex is released, the reader wakes up, observes that RDT_DELETED is not set for the default group, and dereferences the already-freed file private data. The scenario can be depicted as follows: CPU0 CPU1 /* * Default resource group's * monitoring data accessible via * kernfs file with kernfs_node::priv * pointing to a struct mon_data. * User opens the file for reading. */ rdtgroup_mondata_show() /* arch encounters fatal error */ rdtgroup_kn_lock_live() resctrl_exit() atomic_inc(&rdtgroup_default.waitcount) cpus_read_lock() kernfs_break_active_protection(kn) mutex_lock(&rdtgroup_mutex) cpus_read_lock() resctrl_fs_teardown() mutex_lock(&rdtgroup_mutex) rmdir_all_sub() mon_put_kn_priv() /* Delete all mon_data structures */ rdtgroup_destroy_root() kernfs_destroy_root() rdtgroup_default.kn = NULL mutex_unlock(&rdtgroup_mutex) /* * rdtgroup_default.flags is empty so * rdtgroup_kn_lock_live() returns * &rdtgroup_default */ md = of->kn->priv; /* md points to freed mon_data */ Set RDT_DELETED for the default group unconditionally since the flag does not lead to the freeing of this statically allocated group. Do not allow a new resctrl mount if there are any waiters on default group of previous mount. A new mount will re-initialize the default group that would appear to waiters from previous mount as though the default group is accessible causing them to access the mon_data structures from the previous mount that have been removed.

2026-07-01x86,fs/resctrl: Prevent out-of-bounds access while offlining CPU when SNC ↵Reinette Chatre1-17/+22
enabled The architecture updates the cpu_mask in a domain's header to track which online CPUs are associated with the domain. When this mask becomes empty the architecture initiates offline of the domain that includes calling on resctrl fs to offline the domain. If it is a monitoring domain in which LLC occupancy is tracked resctrl fs forces the limbo handler to clear all busy RMID state associated with the domain. The limbo handler always reads the current event value associated with a busy RMID irrespective of it being checked as part of regular "is it still busy" check or whether it will be forced released anyway. When reading an RMID on a system with SNC enabled the "logical RMID" is converted to the "physical RMID" and this conversion requires the NUMA node ID of the resctrl monitoring domain that is in turn determined by querying the NUMA node ID of any CPU belonging to the monitoring domain. When the monitoring domain is going offline its cpu_mask is empty causing the NUMA node ID query via cpu_to_node() to be done with "nr_cpu_ids" as argument resulting in an out-of-bounds access. Refactor the limbo handler to skip reading the RMID when the RMID will just be forced to no longer be dirty in the domain anyway. Add a safety check to the architecture's RMID reader to protect against this scenario.

2026-05-08fs/resctrl: Continue counter allocation after failureBen Horgan1-6/+9
In mbm_event mode, with mbm_assign_on_mkdir set to 1, when a user creates a new CTRL_MON or MON group resctrl attempts to allocate counters for each of the supported MBM events on each resctrl domain. As counters are limited, such allocation may fail and when it does counter allocations for the remaining domains are skipped even if the domains have available counters. Because of that, the user needs to view the resource group'smbm_L3_assignments file to get an accurate view of counter assignment in a new resource group and then manually create counters in the skipped domains with available counters. Writes to mbm_L3_assignments using the wildcard format, <event>:*=e, also skip counter allocation in other domains after a counter allocation failure. When handling a request to create counters in all domains it is unnecessary for a counter allocation in one domain to prevent counter allocation in other domains. Always attempt to allocate all the counters requested.

2026-05-07fs/resctrl: Add monitor property 'mbm_cntr_assign_fixed'Ben Horgan1-1/+7
Commit 3b497c3f4f04 ("fs/resctrl: Introduce the interface to display monitoring modes") introduced CONFIG_RESCTRL_ASSIGN_FIXED but left adding the Kconfig entry until it was necessary. The counter assignment mode is fixed in MPAM, even when there are assignable counters, and so addressing this is needed to support MPAM. To avoid the burden of another Kconfig entry, replace CONFIG_RESCTRL_ASSIGN_FIXED with a new property in 'struct resctrl_mon', 'mbm_cntr_assign_fixed' to be set by the architecture. Do not request the architecture to change the counter assignment mode if it does not support doing so. Provide insight to user space about why such a request fails.

2026-05-06fs/resctrl: Disallow the software controller when MBM counters are assignableBen Horgan1-6/+10
The software controller requires that there is one MBM counter per monitor group that is assigned to the event backing the software controller, as per mba_MBps_event. When mbm_event mode is in use, it is not guaranteed that any particular event will have an assigned counter. Currently, only AMD systems support counter assignment, but the MBA delay is non-linear and so the software controller is never supported anyway. On MPAM systems, the MBA delay is linear and so the software controller could be supported. The MPAM driver, unless a need arises, will not support the 'default' mbm_assign_mode and will always use the 'mbm_event' mode for memory bandwidth monitoring. Rather than develop a way to guarantee the counter assignment requirements needed by the software controller, take the pragmatic approach. Don't allow the software controller to be used at the same time as 'mbm_event' mode. As MPAM is the only relevant architecture and it will use 'mbm_event' mode whenever there are assignable MBM counters, for simplicity's sake, don't allow the software controller when the MBM counters are assignable. Implement this by failing the mount if the user requests the software controller, the mba_MBps option, and the MBM counters are assignable.

2026-05-06x86,fs/resctrl: Create 'event_filter' files read only if they're not ↵Ben Horgan3-1/+19
configurable When the counter assignment mode is mbm_event resctrl assumes the MBM events are configurable and exposes the 'event_filter' files. These files live at info/L3_MON/event_configs/<event>/event_filter and are used to display and set the event configuration. The MPAM architecture has support for configuring the memory bandwidth utilization (MBWU) counters to only count reads or only count writes. However, in MPAM, this event filtering support is optional in the hardware (and not yet implemented in the MPAM driver) but MBM counter assignment is always possible for MPAM MBWU counters. In order to support mbm_event mode with MPAM, create the 'event_filter' files read only if the event configuration can't be changed. A user can still chmod the file and so also return early with an error from event_filter_write(). Introduce a new monitor property, mbm_cntr_configurable, to indicate whether or not assignable MBM counters are configurable. On x86, set this to true whenever mbm_cntr_assignable is true to keep existing behaviour.

2026-04-05mm: reintroduce vma_desc_test() as a singular flag testLorenzo Stoakes (Oracle)1-1/+1
Similar to vma_flags_test(), we have previously renamed vma_desc_test() to vma_desc_test_any(). Now that is in place, we can reintroduce vma_desc_test() to explicitly check for a single VMA flag. As with vma_flags_test(), this is useful as often flag tests are against a single flag, and vma_desc_test_any(flags, VMA_READ_BIT) reads oddly and potentially causes confusion. As with vma_flags_test() a combination of sparse and vma_flags_t being a struct means that users cannot misuse this function without it getting flagged. Also update the VMA tests to reflect this change.
