Pull pid_namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
- pid_namespace: make init creation more flexible
Annotate ->child_reaper accesses with {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() to protect the unlocked readers from cpu/compiler reordering, and enforce that pid 1 in a pid namespace is always the first allocated pid (the set_tid path already required this).
On top of that, allow opening pid_for_children before the pid namespace init has been created. This lets one process create the pid namespace and a different process create the init via setns(), which makes clone3(set_tid) usable in all cases evenly and is particularly useful to CRIU when restoring nested containers.
A new selftest covers both the basic create-pidns-then-init flow and the cross-process variant, and a MAINTAINERS entry for the pid namespace code is added.

Merge patch series "pid_namespace: make init creation more flexible"
Pavel Tikhomirov <ptikhomirov@virtuozzo.com> says:
The first patch properly annotates accesses to ->child_reaper with _ONCE macroses, to protect unlocked accesses from possible cpu/compiler optimization problems.
The second patch makes sure that the init is always a first process in the pid namespace, previously this was only checked for set_tid case.
The third patch allows to join pid namespace before pid namespace init is created, that allows to create pid namespace by one process and then create pid namespace init from another process after setns(). Please see the detailed description in the patch commit message. It depends on the second patch.
The forth and the final patch is a comprehansive test, that tests both basic usecase of creating pid namespace and init separately, and a more specific usecase which shows how we can improve clone3(set_tid) usability after this change.
This change is generally useful as it makes clone3(set_tid) more universal, and let's it work in all the cases evenly. Also it is highly useful to CRIU to handle nested containers.

selftests: Add tests for creating pidns init via setns
First testcase "pidns_init_via_setns" checks that a process can become Pid 1 (init) in a new Pid namespace created via unshare() and joined via setns().
Second testcase "pidns_init_via_setns_set_tid" checks that during this process we can use clone3() + set_tid and set the pid in both the new and old pid namespaces (owned by different user namespaces). This test requires root to run to avoid complex setup for wrapper userns.

Merge tag 'kernel-6.14-rc1.pid' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull pid_max namespacing update from Christian Brauner: "The pid_max sysctl is a global value. For a long time the default value has been 65535 and during the pidfd dicussions Linus proposed to bump pid_max by default. Based on this discussion systemd started bumping pid_max to 2^22. So all new systems now run with a very high pid_max limit with some distros having also backported that change.
The decision to bump pid_max is obviously correct. It just doesn't make a lot of sense nowadays to enforce such a low pid number. There's sufficient tooling to make selecting specific processes without typing really large pid numbers available.
In any case, there are workloads that have expections about how large pid numbers they accept. Either for historical reasons or architectural reasons. One concreate example is the 32-bit version of Android's bionic libc which requires pid numbers less than 65536. There are workloads where it is run in a 32-bit container on a 64-bit kernel. If the host has a pid_max value greater than 65535 the libc will abort thread creation because of size assumptions of pthread_mutex_t.
That's a fairly specific use-case however, in general specific workloads that are moved into containers running on a host with a new kernel and a new systemd can run into issues with large pid_max values. Obviously making assumptions about the size of the allocated pid is suboptimal but we have userspace that does it.
Of course, giving containers the ability to restrict the number of processes in their respective pid namespace indepent of the global limit through pid_max is something desirable in itself and comes in handy in general.
Independent of motivating use-cases the existence of pid namespaces makes this also a good semantical extension and there have been prior proposals pushing in a similar direction. The trick here is to minimize the risk of regressions which I think is doable. The fact that pid namespaces are hierarchical will help us here.
What we mostly care about is that when the host sets a low pid_max limit, say (crazy number) 100 that no descendant pid namespace can allocate a higher pid number in its namespace. Since pid allocation is hierarchial this can be ensured by checking each pid allocation against the pid namespace's pid_max limit. This means if the allocation in the descendant pid namespace succeeds, the ancestor pid namespace can reject it. If the ancestor pid namespace has a higher limit than the descendant pid namespace the descendant pid namespace will reject the pid allocation. The ancestor pid namespace will obviously not care about this.
All in all this means pid_max continues to enforce a system wide limit on the number of processes but allows pid namespaces sufficient leeway in handling workloads with assumptions about pid values and allows containers to restrict the number of processes in a pid namespace through the pid_max interface"
