Subject: 答复: [PATCH v2] sched/debug: reject invalid writes to numa_balancing scan_size_mb
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 14:07:11 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cbf5e9c8984346f7a35bef09abb558e7@baidu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723082144.2190-1-lirongqing@baidu.com>

> The sysctl_numa_balancing_scan_size parameter is currently registered via
> debugfs_create_u32(), which accepts any u32 value including 0. A zero value
> triggers division-by-zero in two code paths:
>
> task_scan_min():
> windows = MAX_SCAN_WINDOW / scan_size;
>
> task_nr_scan_windows():
> rss = round_up(rss, nr_scan_pages);
> return rss / nr_scan_pages;
>
> Similarly, values exceeding UINT_MAX would be silently truncated by the
> write path before reaching this handler, potentially accepting unintended
> values. Reject them explicitly with -ERANGE
>
> Replace the debugfs_create_u32() interface with a custom file_operations
> handler that validates writes: reject 0 and values exceeding UINT_MAX with
> -ERANGE. Since the ops use DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() which already
> provides removal protection via debugfs_file_get()/put(),
> debugfs_create_file_unsafe() is used instead of debugfs_create_file() to avoid
> an unnecessary full_proxy layer.
