    cgroup: Fix memory leak caused by missing cgroup_bpf_offline · 04f8ef56
    Quanyang Wang authored
    When enabling CONFIG_CGROUP_BPF, kmemleak can be observed by running
    the command as below:
    
        $mount -t cgroup -o none,name=foo cgroup cgroup/
        $umount cgroup/
    
    unreferenced object 0xc3585c40 (size 64):
      comm "mount", pid 425, jiffies 4294959825 (age 31.990s)
      hex dump (first 32 bytes):

    This is because that since the commit 2b0d3d3e ("percpu_ref: reduce
    memory footprint of percpu_ref in fast path") root_cgrp->bpf.refcnt.data
    is allocated by the function percpu_ref_init in cgroup_bpf_inherit which
    is called by cgroup_setup_root when mounting, but not freed along with
    root_cgrp when umounting. Adding cgroup_bpf_offline which calls
    percpu_ref_kill to cgroup_kill_sb can free root_cgrp->bpf.refcnt.data in
    umount path.
    
    This patch also fixes the commit 4bfc0bb2 ("bpf: decouple the lifetime
    of cgroup_bpf from cgroup itself"). A cgroup_bpf_offline is needed to do a
    cleanup that frees the resources which are allocated by cgroup_bpf_inherit
    in cgroup_setup_root.
    
    And inside cgroup_bpf_offline, cgroup_get() is at the beginning and
    cgroup_put is at the end of cgroup_bpf_release which is called by
    cgroup_bpf_offline. So cgroup_bpf_offline can keep the balance of
    cgroup's refcount.
    
    Fixes: 2b0d3d3e ("percpu_ref: reduce memory footprint of percpu_ref in fast path")
    Fixes: 4bfc0bb2 ("bpf: decouple the lifetime of cgroup_bpf from cgroup itself")
