The test_memcg_sock test in memcontrol.c sets up an IPv6 socket and send
data over it to consume memory and verify that memory.stat.sock and
memory.current values are close.
On systems where IPv6 isn't enabled or not configured to support
SOCK_STREAM, the test_memcg_sock test always fails. When the socket()
call fails, there is no way we can test the memory consumption and verify
the above claim. I believe it is better to just skip the test in this
case instead of reporting a test failure hinting that there may be
something wrong with the memcg code.

Add test_zswap_incompressible() to verify that the zswap_incomp memcg stat
correctly tracks incompressible pages.
The test allocates memory filled with random data from /dev/urandom, which
cannot be effectively compressed by zswap. When this data is swapped out
to zswap, it should be stored as-is and tracked by the zswap_incomp
counter.
The test verifies that:
1. Pages are swapped out to zswap (zswpout increases)
2. Incompressible pages are tracked (zswap_incomp increases)
test:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=2048

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.

The cpuset_handle_hotplug() may need to invoke housekeeping_update(),
for instance, when an isolated partition is invalidated because its
last active CPU has been put offline.
As we are going to enable dynamic update to the nozh_full housekeeping
cpumask (HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOISE) soon with the help of CPU hotplug,
allowing the CPU hotplug path to call into housekeeping_update() directly
from update_isolation_cpumasks() will likely cause deadlock. So we
have to defer any call to housekeeping_update() after the CPU hotplug
operation has finished. This is now done via the workqueue where
the update_hk_sched_domains() function will be invoked via the
hk_sd_workfn().
An concurrent cpuset control file write may have executed the required
update_hk_sched_domains() function before the work function is called. So
the work function call may become a no-op when it is invoked.

As stated in commit 1c09b195d37f ("cpuset: fix a regression in validating
config change"), it is not allowed to clear masks of a cpuset if
there're tasks in it. This is specific to v1 since empty "cpuset.cpus"
or "cpuset.mems" will cause the v2 cpuset to inherit the effective CPUs
or memory nodes from its parent. So it is OK to have empty cpus or mems
even if there are tasks in the cpuset.
Move this empty cpus/mems check in validate_change() to
cpuset1_validate_change() to allow more flexibility in setting
cpus or mems in v2. cpuset_is_populated() needs to be moved into
cpuset-internal.h as it is needed by the empty cpus/mems checking code.
Also add a test case to test_cpuset_prs.sh to verify that.

Currently, when setting a cpuset's cpuset.cpus to a value that conflicts
with the cpuset.cpus/cpuset.cpus.exclusive of a sibling partition,
the sibling's partition state becomes invalid. This is overly harsh and
is probably not necessary.
The cpuset.cpus.exclusive control file, if set, will override the
cpuset.cpus of the same cpuset when creating a cpuset partition.
So cpuset.cpus has less priority than cpuset.cpus.exclusive in setting up
a partition. However, it cannot override a conflicting cpuset.cpus file
in a sibling cpuset and the partition creation process will fail. This
is inconsistent. That will also make using cpuset.cpus.exclusive less
valuable as a tool to set up cpuset partitions as the users have to
check if such a cpuset.cpus conflict exists or not.
Fix these problems by making sure that once a cpuset.cpus.exclusive
is set without failure, it will always be allowed to form a valid
partition as long as at least one CPU can be granted from its parent
irrespective of the state of the siblings' cpuset.cpus values. Of
course, setting cpuset.cpus.exclusive will fail if it conflicts with
the cpuset.cpus.exclusive or the cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective value
of a sibling.
Partition can still be created by setting only cpuset.cpus without
setting cpuset.cpus.exclusive. However, any conflicting CPUs in sibling's
cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective and cpuset.cpus.exclusive values will
be removed from its cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective as long as there
is still one or more CPUs left and can be granted from its parent. This
CPU stripping is currently done in rm_siblings_excl_cpus().
The new code will now try its best to enable the creation of new
partitions with only cpuset.cpus set without invalidating existing ones.
However it is not guaranteed that all the CPUs requested in cpuset.cpus
will be used in the new partition even when all these CPUs can be
granted from the parent.
This is similar to the fact that cpuset.cpus.effective may not be
able to include all the CPUs requested in cpuset.cpus. In this case,
the parent may not able to grant all the exclusive CPUs requested in
cpuset.cpus to cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective if some of them have
already been granted to other partitions earlier.
With the creation of multiple sibling partitions by setting
only cpuset.cpus, this does have the side effect that their exact
cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective settings will depend on the order of
partition creation if there are conflicts. Due to the exclusive nature
of the CPUs in a partition, it is not easy to make it fair other than
the old behavior of invalidating all the conflicting partitions.
For example,
# echo "0-2" > A1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > A1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# cat A1/cpuset.cpus.partition
root
# cat A1/cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective
0-2
# echo "2-4" > B1/cpuset.cpus
# echo "root" > B1/cpuset.cpus.partition
# cat B1/cpuset.cpus.partition
root
# cat B1/cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective
3-4
# cat B1/cpuset.cpus.effective
3-4
For users who want to be sure that they can get most of the CPUs they
want, cpuset.cpus.exclusive should be used instead if they can set
it successfully without failure. Setting cpuset.cpus.exclusive will
guarantee that sibling conflicts from then onward is no longer possible.
To make this change, we have to separate out the is_cpu_exclusive()
check in cpus_excl_conflict() into a cgroup v1 only
cpuset1_cpus_excl_conflict() helper. The cpus_allowed_validate_change()
helper is now no longer needed and can be removed.
Some existing tests in test_cpuset_prs.sh are updated and new ones are
added to reflect the new behavior. The cgroup-v2.rst doc file is also
updated the clarify what exclusive CPUs will be used when a partition
is created.

nr_dying_descendants
Replace the manual sleep-and-retry logic in test_kmem_dead_cgroups()
with the new helper `cg_read_key_long_poll()`. This change improves
the robustness of the test by polling the "nr_dying_descendants"
counter in `cgroup.stat` until it reaches 0 or the timeout is exceeded.
Additionally, increase the retry timeout to 8 seconds (from 5 seconds)
based on testing results:
- With 5-second timeout: 4/20 runs passed.
- With 8-second timeout: 20/20 runs passed.
The 8 second timeout is based on stress testing of test_kmem_dead_cgroups()
under load: 5 seconds was occasionally not enough for reclaim of dying
descendants to complete, whereas 8 seconds consistently covered the observed
latencies. This value is intended as a generous upper bound for the
asynchronous reclaim and is not tied to any specific kernel constant, so it
can be adjusted in the future if reclaim behavior changes.

test_memcg_sock() currently requires that memory.stat's "sock " counter
is exactly zero immediately after the TCP server exits. On a busy system
this assumption is too strict:
- Socket memory may be freed with a small delay (e.g. RCU callbacks).
- memcg statistics are updated asynchronously via the rstat flushing
worker, so the "sock " value in memory.stat can stay non-zero for a
short period of time even after all socket memory has been uncharged.
As a result, test_memcg_sock() can intermittently fail even though socket
memory accounting is working correctly.
Make the test more robust by polling memory.stat for the "sock "
counter and allowing it some time to drop to zero instead of checking
it only once. The timeout is set to 3 seconds to cover the periodic
rstat flush interval (FLUSH_TIME = 2*HZ by default) plus some
scheduling slack. If the counter does not become zero within the
timeout, the test still fails as before.
On my test system, running test_memcontrol 50 times produced:
- Before this patch: 6/50 runs passed.
- After this patch: 50/50 runs passed.

Introduce a new helper function `cg_read_key_long_poll()` in
cgroup_util.h. This function polls the specified key in a cgroup file
until it matches the expected value or the retry limit is reached,
with configurable wait intervals between retries.
This helper is particularly useful for handling asynchronously updated
cgroup statistics (e.g., memory.stat), where immediate reads may
observe stale values, especially on busy systems. It allows tests and
other utilities to handle such cases more flexibly.

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.

Current cpu.max tests (both the normal one and the nested one) are broken.
They setup cpu.max with 1000 us quota and the default period (100,000 us).
A cpu hog is run for a duration of 1s as per wall clock time. This corresponds
to 10 periods, hence an expected usage of 10,000 us. We want the measured
usage (as per cpu.stat) to be close to 10,000 us.
Previously, this approximate equality test was done by
`!values_close(usage_usec, expected_usage_usec, 95)`: if the absolute
difference between usage_usec and expected_usage_usec is greater than 95% of
their sum, then we pass. And expected_usage_usec was set to 1,000,000 us.
Mathematically, this translates to the following being true for pass:
|usage - expected_usage| > (usage + expected_usage)*0.95
If usage > expected_usage:
usage - expected_usage > (usage + expected_usage)*0.95
0.05*usage > 1.95*expected_usage
usage > 39*expected_usage = 39s
If usage < expected_usage:
expected_usage - usage > (usage + expected_usage)*0.95
0.05*expected_usage > 1.95*usage
usage < 0.0256*expected_usage = 25,600 us
Combined,
Pass if usage < 25,600 us or > 39 s,
which makes no sense given that all we need is for usage_usec to be close to
10,000 us.
Fix this by explicitly calcuating the expected usage duration based on the
configured quota, default period, and the duration, and compare usage_usec
and expected_usage_usec using values_close() with a 10% error margin.
Also, use snprintf to get the quota string to write to cpu.max instead of
hardcoding the quota, ensuring a single source of truth.
Remove the check comparing user_usec and expected_usage_usec, since on running
this test modified with printfs, it's seen that user_usec and usage_usec can
regularly exceed the theoretical expected_usage_usec:
$ sudo ./test_cpu
user: 10485, usage: 10485, expected: 10000
ok 1 test_cpucg_max
user: 11127, usage: 11127, expected: 10000
ok 2 test_cpucg_max_nested
$ sudo ./test_cpu
user: 10286, usage: 10286, expected: 10000
ok 1 test_cpucg_max
user: 10404, usage: 11271, expected: 10000
ok 2 test_cpucg_max_nested
Hence, a values_close() check of usage_usec and expected_usage_usec is
sufficient.

The test_kmem_dead_cgroups test currently assumes that RCU and
memory reclaim will complete within 5 seconds. In some environments
this timeout may be insufficient, leading to spurious test failures.
This patch introduces max_time set to 20 which is then used in the
test. After 5th sec the debug message is printed to indicate the
cleanup is still ongoing.
In the system under test with 16 CPUs the original test was failing
most of the time and the cleanup time took usually approx. 6sec.
Further tests were conducted with and without do_rcu_barrier and the
results (respectively) are as follow:
quantiles 0 0.25 0.5 0.75 1
1 2 3 8 20 (mean = 4.7667)
3 5 8 8 20 (mean = 7.6667)
