2013-06-13cgroup: split cgroup destruction into two stepsTejun Heo
Split cgroup_destroy_locked() into two steps and put the latter half into cgroup_offline_fn() which is executed from a work item. The latter half is responsible for offlining the css's, removing the cgroup from internal lists, and propagating release notification to the parent. The separation is to allow using percpu refcnt for css. Note that this allows for other cgroup operations to happen between the first and second halves of destruction, including creating a new cgroup with the same name. As the target cgroup is marked DEAD in the first half and cgroup internals don't care about the names of cgroups, this should be fine. A comment explaining this will be added by the next patch which implements the actual percpu refcnting. As RCU freeing is guaranteed to happen after the second step of destruction, we can use the same work item for both. This patch renames cgroup->free_work to ->destroy_work and uses it for both purposes. INIT_WORK() is now performed right before queueing the work item.

2013-06-13cgroup: reorder the operations in cgroup_destroy_locked()Tejun Heo
This patch reorders the operations in cgroup_destroy_locked() such that the userland visible parts happen before css offlining and removal from the ->sibling list. This will be used to make css use percpu refcnt. While at it, split out CGRP_DEAD related comment from the refcnt deactivation one and correct / clarify how different guarantees are met. While this patch changes the specific order of operations, it shouldn't cause any noticeable behavior difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>
2013-06-13cgroup: remove cgroup->count and useTejun Heo
cgroup->count tracks the number of css_sets associated with the cgroup and used only to verify that no css_set is associated when the cgroup is being destroyed. It's superflous as the destruction path can simply check whether cgroup->cset_links is empty instead. Drop cgroup->count and check ->cset_links directly from cgroup_destroy_locked().

2013-06-13cgroup: drop unnecessary RCU dancing from __put_css_set()Tejun Heo
__put_css_set() does RCU read access on @cgrp across dropping @cgrp->count so that it can continue accessing @cgrp even if the count reached zero and destruction of the cgroup commenced. Given that both sides - __css_put() and cgroup_destroy_locked() - are cold paths, this is unnecessary. Just making cgroup_destroy_locked() grab css_set_lock while checking @cgrp->count is enough. Remove the RCU read locking from __put_css_set() and make cgroup_destroy_locked() read-lock css_set_lock when checking @cgrp->count. This will also allow removing @cgrp->count.

2013-06-13cgroup: rename CGRP_REMOVED to CGRP_DEADTejun Heo
We will add another flag indicating that the cgroup is in the process of being killed. REMOVING / REMOVED is more difficult to distinguish and cgroup_is_removing()/cgroup_is_removed() are a bit awkward. Also, later percpu_ref usage will involve "kill"ing the refcnt. s/CGRP_REMOVED/CGRP_DEAD/ s/cgroup_is_removed()/cgroup_is_dead() This patch is purely cosmetic.

2013-06-13cgroup: bring some sanity to naming around cg_cgroup_linkTejun Heo
cgroups and css_sets are mapped M:N and this M:N mapping is represented by struct cg_cgroup_link which forms linked lists on both sides. The naming around this mapping is already confusing and struct cg_cgroup_link exacerbates the situation quite a bit. >From cgroup side, it starts off ->css_sets and runs through ->cgrp_link_list. From css_set side, it starts off ->cg_links and runs through ->cg_link_list. This is rather reversed as cgrp_link_list is used to iterate css_sets and cg_link_list cgroups. Also, this is the only place which is still using the confusing "cg" for css_sets. This patch cleans it up a bit. * s/cgroup->css_sets/cgroup->cset_links/ s/css_set->cg_links/css_set->cgrp_links/ s/cgroup_iter->cg_link/cgroup_iter->cset_link/ * s/cg_cgroup_link/cgrp_cset_link/ * s/cgrp_cset_link->cg/cgrp_cset_link->cset/ s/cgrp_cset_link->cgrp_link_list/cgrp_cset_link->cset_link/ s/cgrp_cset_link->cg_link_list/cgrp_cset_link->cgrp_link/ * s/init_css_set_link/init_cgrp_cset_link/ s/free_cg_links/free_cgrp_cset_links/ s/allocate_cg_links/allocate_cgrp_cset_links/ * s/cgl[12]/link[12]/ in compare_css_sets() * s/saved_link/tmp_link/ s/tmp/tmp_links/ and a couple similar adustments. * Comment and whiteline adjustments.

2013-06-13cgroup: consistently use @cset for struct css_set variablesTejun Heo
cgroup.c uses @cg for most struct css_set variables, which in itself could be a bit confusing, but made much worse by the fact that there are places which use @cg for struct cgroup variables. compare_css_sets() epitomizes this confusion - @[old_]cg are struct css_set while @cg[12] are struct cgroup. It's not like the whole deal with cgroup, css_set and cg_cgroup_link isn't already confusing enough. Let's give it some sanity by uniformly using @cset for all struct css_set variables. * s/cg/cset/ for all css_set variables. * s/oldcg/old_cset/ s/oldcgrp/old_cgrp/.

2013-05-29cgroup: warn about mismatching options of a new mount of an existing hierarchyJeff Liu
With the new __DEVEL__sane_behavior mount option was introduced, if the root cgroup is alive with no xattr function, to mount a new cgroup with xattr will be rejected in terms of design which just fine. However, if the root cgroup does not mounted with __DEVEL__sane_hehavior, to create a new cgroup with xattr option will succeed although after that the EA function does not works as expected but will get ENOTSUPP for setting up attributes under either cgroup. e.g. setfattr: /cgroup2/test: Operation not supported Instead of keeping silence in this case, it's better to drop a log entry in warning level. That would be helpful to understand the reason behind the scene from the user's perspective, and this is essentially an improvement does not break the backward compatibilities.

2013-05-24cgroup: update iterators to use cgroup_next_sibling()Tejun Heo
This patch converts cgroup_for_each_child(), cgroup_next_descendant_pre/post() and thus cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre/post() to use cgroup_next_sibling() instead of manually dereferencing ->sibling.next. The only reason the iterators couldn't allow dropping RCU read lock while iteration is in progress was because they couldn't determine the next sibling safely once RCU read lock is dropped. Using cgroup_next_sibling() removes that problem and enables all iterators to allow dropping RCU read lock in the middle. Comments are updated accordingly. This makes the iterators easier to use and will simplify controllers. Note that @cgroup argument is renamed to @cgrp in cgroup_for_each_child() because it conflicts with "struct cgroup" used in the new macro body.

2013-05-24cgroup: add cgroup->serial_nr and implement cgroup_next_sibling()Tejun Heo
Currently, there's no easy way to find out the next sibling cgroup unless it's known that the current cgroup is accessed from the parent's children list in a single RCU critical section. This in turn forces all iterators to require whole iteration to be enclosed in a single RCU critical section, which sometimes is too restrictive. This patch implements cgroup_next_sibling() which can reliably determine the next sibling regardless of the state of the current cgroup as long as it's accessible. It currently is impossible to determine the next sibling after dropping RCU read lock because the cgroup being iterated could be removed anytime and if RCU read lock is dropped, nothing guarantess its ->sibling.next pointer is accessible. A removed cgroup would continue to point to its next sibling for RCU accesses but stop receiving updates from the sibling. IOW, the next sibling could be removed and then complete its grace period while RCU read lock is dropped, making it unsafe to dereference ->sibling.next after dropping and re-acquiring RCU read lock. This can be solved by adding a way to traverse to the next sibling without dereferencing ->sibling.next. This patch adds a monotonically increasing cgroup serial number, cgroup->serial_nr, which guarantees that all cgroup->children lists are kept in increasing serial_nr order. A new function, cgroup_next_sibling(), is implemented, which, if CGRP_REMOVED is not set on the current cgroup, follows ->sibling.next; otherwise, traverses the parent's ->children list until it sees a sibling with higher ->serial_nr. This allows the function to always return the next sibling regardless of the state of the current cgroup without adding overhead in the fast path. Further patches will update the iterators to use cgroup_next_sibling() so that they allow dropping RCU read lock and blocking while iteration is in progress which in turn will be used to simplify controllers. v2: Typo fix as per Serge.

2013-05-24cgroup: fix a subtle bug in descendant pre-order walkTejun Heo
When cgroup_next_descendant_pre() initiates a walk, it checks whether the subtree root doesn't have any children and if not returns NULL. Later code assumes that the subtree isn't empty. This is broken because the subtree may become empty inbetween, which can lead to the traversal escaping the subtree by walking to the sibling of the subtree root. There's no reason to have the early exit path. Remove it along with the later assumption that the subtree isn't empty. This simplifies the code a bit and fixes the subtle bug. While at it, fix the comment of cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() which was incorrectly referring to ->css_offline() instead of ->css_online().

Locking cleanup is finally complete. cgroup_mutex is no longer exposed to individual controlelrs which used to cause nasty deadlock issues. Li fixed and cleaned up quite a bit including long standing ones like racy cgroup_path(). - device cgroup now supports proper hierarchy thanks to Aristeu. - perf_event cgroup now supports proper hierarchy. - A new mount option "__DEVEL__sane_behavior" is added. As indicated by the name, this option is to be used for development only at this point and generates a warning message when used. Unfortunately, cgroup interface currently has too many brekages and inconsistencies to implement a consistent and unified hierarchy on top. The new flag is used to collect the behavior changes which are necessary to implement consistent unified hierarchy. It's likely that this flag won't be used verbatim when it becomes ready but will be enabled implicitly along with unified hierarchy. The option currently disables some of broken behaviors in cgroup core and also .use_hierarchy switch in memcg (will be routed through -mm), which can be used to make very unusual hierarchy where nesting is partially honored. It will also be used to implement hierarchy support for blk-throttle which would be impossible otherwise without introducing a full separate set of control knobs. This is essentially versioning of interface which isn't very nice but at this point I can't see any other options which would allow keeping the interface the same while moving towards hierarchy behavior which is at least somewhat sane. The planned unified hierarchy is likely to require some level of adaptation from userland anyway, so I think it'd be best to take the chance and update the interface such that it's supportable in the long term. Maintaining the existing interface does complicate cgroup core but shouldn't put too much strain on individual controllers and I think it'd be manageable for the foreseeable future. Maybe we'll be able to drop it in a decade.

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo: "A lot of activities on workqueue side this time. The changes achieve the followings. - WQ_UNBOUND workqueues - the workqueues which are per-cpu - are updated to be able to interface with multiple backend worker pools. This involved a lot of churning but the end result seems actually neater as unbound workqueues are now a lot closer to per-cpu ones. - The ability to interface with multiple backend worker pools are used to implement unbound workqueues with custom attributes. Currently the supported attributes are the nice level and CPU affinity. It may be expanded to include cgroup association in future. The attributes can be specified either by calling apply_workqueue_attrs() or through /sys/bus/workqueue/WQ_NAME/* if the workqueue in question is exported through sysfs. The backend worker pools are keyed by the actual attributes and shared by any workqueues which share the same attributes. When attributes of a workqueue are changed, the workqueue binds to the worker pool with the specified attributes while leaving the work items which are already executing in its previous worker pools alone. This allows converting custom worker pool implementations which want worker attribute tuning to use workqueues. The writeback pool is already converted in block tree and there are a couple others are likely to follow including btrfs io workers. - WQ_UNBOUND's ability to bind to multiple worker pools is also used to make it NUMA-aware. Because there's no association between work item issuer and the specific worker assigned to execute it, before this change, using unbound workqueue led to unnecessary cross-node bouncing and it couldn't be helped by autonuma as it requires tasks to have implicit node affinity and workers are assigned randomly. After these changes, an unbound workqueue now binds to multiple NUMA-affine worker pools so that queued work items are executed in the same node. This is turned on by default but can be disabled system-wide or for individual workqueues. Crypto was requesting NUMA affinity as encrypting data across different nodes can contribute noticeable overhead and doing it per-cpu was too limiting for certain cases and IO throughput could be bottlenecked by one CPU being fully occupied while others have idle cycles. While the new features required a lot of changes including restructuring locking, it didn't complicate the execution paths much. The unbound workqueue handling is now closer to per-cpu ones and the new features are implemented by simply associating a workqueue with different sets of backend worker pools without changing queue, execution or flush paths. As such, even though the amount of change is very high, I feel relatively safe in that it isn't likely to cause subtle issues with basic correctness of work item execution and handling. If something is wrong, it's likely to show up as being associated with worker pools with the wrong attributes or OOPS while workqueue attributes are being changed or during CPU hotplug. While this creates more backend worker pools, it doesn't add too many more workers unless, of course, there are many workqueues with unique combinations of attributes. Assuming everything else is the same, NUMA awareness costs an extra worker pool per NUMA node with online CPUs. There are also a couple things which are being routed outside the workqueue tree. - block tree pulled in workqueue for-3.10 so that writeback worker pool can be converted to unbound workqueue with sysfs control exposed. This simplifies the code, makes writeback workers NUMA-aware and allows tuning nice level and CPU affinity via sysfs. - The conversion to workqueue means that there's no 1:1 association between a specific worker, which makes writeback folks unhappy as they want to be able to tell which filesystem caused a problem from backtrace on systems with many filesystems mounted.

2013-04-26cgroup: fix use-after-free when umounting cgroupfsLi Zefan
Try: # mount -t cgroup xxx /cgroup # mkdir /cgroup/sub && rmdir /cgroup/sub && umount /cgroup And you might see this: ida_remove called for id=1 which is not allocated. It's because cgroup_kill_sb() is called to destroy root->cgroup_ida and free cgrp->root before ida_simple_removed() is called. What's worse is we're accessing cgrp->root while it has been freed.

2013-04-18cgroup: fix broken file xattrsLi Zefan
We should store file xattrs in struct cfent instead of struct cftype, because cftype is a type while cfent is object instance of cftype. For example each cgroup has a tasks file, and each tasks file is associated with a uniq cfent, but all those files share the same struct cftype. Alexey Kodanev reported a crash, which can be reproduced: # mount -t cgroup -o xattr /sys/fs/cgroup # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test # setfattr -n trusted.value -v test_value /sys/fs/cgroup/tasks # rmdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test # umount /sys/fs/cgroup oops! In this case, simple_xattrs_free() will free the same struct simple_xattrs twice. tj: Dropped unused local variable @cft from cgroup_diput().

2013-04-14cgroup: introduce sane_behavior mount optionTejun Heo
It's a sad fact that at this point various cgroup controllers are carrying so many idiosyncrasies and pure insanities that it simply isn't possible to reach any sort of sane consistent behavior while maintaining staying fully compatible with what already has been exposed to userland. As we can't break exposed userland interface, transitioning to sane behaviors can only be done in steps while maintaining backwards compatibility. This patch introduces a new mount option - __DEVEL__sane_behavior - which disables crazy features and enforces consistent behaviors in cgroup core proper and various controllers. As exactly which behaviors it changes are still being determined, the mount option, at this point, is useful only for development of the new behaviors. As such, the mount option is prefixed with __DEVEL__ and generates a warning message when used. Eventually, once we get to the point where all controller's behaviors are consistent enough to implement unified hierarchy, the __DEVEL__ prefix will be dropped, and more importantly, unified-hierarchy will enforce sane_behavior by default. Maybe we'll able to completely drop the crazy stuff after a while, maybe not, but we at least have a strategy to move on to saner behaviors. This patch introduces the mount option and changes the following behaviors in cgroup core. * Mount options "noprefix" and "clone_children" are disallowed. Also, cgroupfs file cgroup.clone_children is not created. * When mounting an existing superblock, mount options should match. This is currently pretty crazy. If one mounts a cgroup, creates a subdirectory, unmounts it and then mount it again with different option, it looks like the new options are applied but they aren't. * Remount is disallowed. The behaviors changes are documented in the comment above CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR enum and will be expanded as different controllers are converted and planned improvements progress. v2: Dropped unnecessary explicit file permission setting sane_behavior cftype entry as suggested by Li Zefan.

2013-04-14move cgroupfs_root to include/linux/cgroup.hTejun Heo
While controllers shouldn't be accessing cgroupfs_root directly, it being hidden inside kern/cgroup.c makes somethings pretty silly. This makes routing hierarchy-wide settings which need to be visible to controllers cumbersome. We're gonna add another hierarchy-wide setting which needs to be accessed from controllers.

While reimplementing cgroup_path(), 65dff759d2 ("cgroup: fix cgroup_path() vs rename() race") introduced a bug where the path of a non-root cgroup would have two slahses at the beginning, which is caused by treating the root cgroup which has the name '/' like non-root cgroups. $ grep systemd /proc/self/cgroup 1:name=systemd://user/root/1 Fix it by special casing root cgroup case and not looping over it in the normal path.

2013-04-10cgroup: implement cgroup_is_descendant()Li Zefan
A couple controllers want to determine whether two cgroups are in ancestor/descendant relationship. As it's more likely that the descendant is the primary subject of interest and there are other operations focusing on the descendants, let's ask is_descendent rather than is_ancestor. Implementation is trivial as the previous patch guarantees that all ancestors of a cgroup stay accessible as long as the cgroup is accessible. tj: Removed depth optimization, renamed from cgroup_is_ancestor(), rewrote descriptions.

Suppose we rmdir a cgroup and there're still css refs, this cgroup won't be freed. Then we rmdir the parent cgroup, and the parent is freed immediately due to css ref draining to 0.

We can move cgroup_lock_is_held() inside CONFIG_PROVE_RCU but that doesn't add meaningful protection compared to conditionally exposing cgroup_mutex. Remove cgroup_lock_is_held(), export cgroup_mutex iff CONFIG_PROVE_RCU and use lockdep_is_held() directly on the mutex in task_subsys_state_check().

2013-04-07cgroup, cpuset: replace move_member_tasks_to_cpuset() with ↵Tejun Heo
cgroup_transfer_tasks() When a cpuset becomes empty (no CPU or memory), its tasks are transferred with the nearest ancestor with execution resources. This is implemented using cgroup_scan_tasks() with a callback which grabs cgroup_mutex and invokes cgroup_attach_task() on each task. Both cgroup_mutex and cgroup_attach_task() are scheduled to be unexported. Implement cgroup_transfer_tasks() in cgroup proper which is essentially the same as move_member_tasks_to_cpuset() except that it takes cgroups instead of cpusets and @to comes before @from like normal functions with those arguments, and replace move_member_tasks_to_cpuset() with it.
