[PATCH 1/2] sched: Defend cfs and rt bandwidth quota against overflow

From: Huaixin Chang
Date: Sun Apr 19 2020 - 22:45:36 EST


Kernel limitation on cpu.cfs_quota_us is insufficient. Some large
numbers might cause overflow in to_ratio() calculation and produce
unexpected results.

For example, if we make two cpu cgroups and then write a reasonable
value and a large value into child's and parent's cpu.cfs_quota_us. This
will cause a write error.

cd /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu
mkdir parent; mkdir parent/child
echo 8000 > parent/child/cpu.cfs_quota_us
# 17592186044416 is (1UL << 44)
echo 17592186044416 > parent/cpu.cfs_quota_us

In this case, quota will overflow and thus fail the __cfs_schedulable
check. Similar overflow also affects rt bandwidth.
