--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 079be8fc630943d9fc70a97807feb73d169ee3fc ]
The validation of the value written to sched_rt_period_us was broken because:
- the sysclt_sched_rt_period is declared as unsigned int - parsed by proc_do_intvec() - the range is asserted after the value parsed by proc_do_intvec()
Because of this negative values written to the file were written into a unsigned integer that were later on interpreted as large positive integers which did passed the check:
if (sysclt_sched_rt_period <= 0) return EINVAL;
This commit fixes the parsing by setting explicit range for both perid_us and runtime_us into the sched_rt_sysctls table and processes the values with proc_dointvec_minmax() instead.
Alternatively if we wanted to use full range of unsigned int for the period value we would have to split the proc_handler and use proc_douintvec() for it however even the Documentation/scheduller/sched-rt-group.rst describes the range as 1 to INT_MAX.
As far as I can tell the only problem this causes is that the sysctl file allows writing negative values which when read back may confuse userspace.
There is also a LTP test being submitted for these sysctl files at:
