This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sched/deadline: Fix reset_on_fork reporting of DL tasks to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sched-deadline-fix-reset_on_fork-reporting-of-dl-tas.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 40e453a354feb2b90cce46de8d665bc62cefd8cc Author: Quentin Perret <qperret@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jul 27 11:11:01 2021 +0100 sched/deadline: Fix reset_on_fork reporting of DL tasks [ Upstream commit f95091536f78971b269ec321b057b8d630b0ad8a ] It is possible for sched_getattr() to incorrectly report the state of the reset_on_fork flag when called on a deadline task. Indeed, if the flag was set on a deadline task using sched_setattr() with flags (SCHED_FLAG_RESET_ON_FORK | SCHED_FLAG_KEEP_PARAMS), then p->sched_reset_on_fork will be set, but __setscheduler() will bail out early, which means that the dl_se->flags will not get updated by __setscheduler_params()->__setparam_dl(). Consequently, if sched_getattr() is then called on the task, __getparam_dl() will override kattr.sched_flags with the now out-of-date copy in dl_se->flags and report the stale value to userspace. To fix this, make sure to only copy the flags that are relevant to sched_deadline to and from the dl_se->flags field.
