  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  sched_ext: Take cgroup_lock() first in scx_cgroup_lock()  scx_cgroup_lock() write-locks scx_cgroup_ops_rwsem and then takes cgroup_lock(), which can deadlock through kernfs:    scx enable/disable         cgroup rmdir           cpu.weight write   ------------------         ------------           ----------------                              cgroup_lock()   percpu_down_write(rwsem)   cgroup_lock()                                                     kernfs_get_active()                                                     percpu_down_read(rwsem)                              kernfs_drain()  The enable path waits for the rmdir to release cgroup_mutex. The rmdir, deactivating the cpu controller\u0027s files, waits in kernfs_drain() for the write\u0027s active reference. The write, in scx_group_set_weight(), waits for the rwsem behind the pending writer.  Take cgroup_lock() first. The set_* paths take no cgroup locks inside the read side, so a pending write-lock then only waits for read sections that always run to completion, and no dependency from the rwsem back to cgroup_mutex remains.",
