    blk-throttle: check stats_cpu before reading it from sysfs · 350337c6

    commit 045c47ca upstream.
    
    When reading blkio.throttle.io_serviced in a recently created blkio
    cgroup, it's possible to race against the creation of a throttle policy,
    which delays the allocation of stats_cpu.
    
    Like other functions in the throttle code, just checking for a NULL
    stats_cpu prevents the following oops caused by that race.

    And here is one code that allows to easily reproduce this, although this
    has first been found by running docker.
    
    void run(pid_t pid)
    {
    	int n;
    	int status;
    	int fd;
    	char *buffer;
    	buffer = memalign(BUFFER_ALIGN, BUFFER_SIZE);
    	n = snprintf(buffer, BUFFER_SIZE, "%d\n", pid);
    	fd = open(CGPATH "/test/tasks", O_WRONLY);
    	write(fd, buffer, n);
    	close(fd);
    	if (fork() > 0) {
    		fd = open("/dev/sda", O_RDONLY | O_DIRECT);
    		read(fd, buffer, 512);
    		close(fd);
    		wait(&status);
    	} else {
    		fd = open(CGPATH "/test/blkio.throttle.io_serviced", O_RDONLY);
    		n = read(fd, buffer, BUFFER_SIZE);
    		close(fd);
    	}
    	free(buffer);
    	exit(0);
    }
    
    void test(void)
    {
    	int status;
    	mkdir(CGPATH "/test", 0666);
    	if (fork() > 0)
    		wait(&status);
    	else
    		run(getpid());
    	rmdir(CGPATH "/test");
    }
    
    int main(int argc, char **argv)
    {
    	int i;
    	for (i = 0; i < NR_TESTS; i++)
    		test();
    	return 0;
    }
