      cgroup: mark subsystems with broken hierarchy support and whine if cgroups are nested for them · 8c7f6edb
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, cgroup hierarchy support is a mess.  cpu related subsystems
      behave correctly - configuration, accounting and control on a parent
      properly cover its children.  blkio and freezer completely ignore
      hierarchy and treat all cgroups as if they're directly under the root
      cgroup.  Others show yet different behaviors.
      
      These differing interpretations of cgroup hierarchy make using cgroup
      confusing and it impossible to co-mount controllers into the same
      hierarchy and obtain sane behavior.
      
      Eventually, we want full hierarchy support from all subsystems and
      probably a unified hierarchy.  Users using separate hierarchies
      expecting completely different behaviors depending on the mounted
      subsystem is deterimental to making any progress on this front.
      
      This patch adds cgroup_subsys.broken_hierarchy and sets it to %true
      for controllers which are lacking in hierarchy support.  The goal of
      this patch is two-fold.
      
      * Move users away from using hierarchy on currently non-hierarchical
        subsystems, so that implementing proper hierarchy support on those
        doesn't surprise them.
      
      * Keep track of which controllers are broken how and nudge the
        subsystems to implement proper hierarchy support.
      
      For now, start with a single warning message.  We can whine louder
      later on.
      
      v2: Fixed a typo spotted by Michal. Warning message updated.
      
      v3: Updated memcg part so that it doesn't generate warning in the
          cases where .use_hierarchy=false doesn't make the behavior
          different from root.use_hierarchy=true.  Fixed a typo spotted by
          Glauber.
      
      v4: Check ->broken_hierarchy after cgroup creation is complete so that
          ->create() can affect the result per Michal.  Dropped unnecessary
          memcg root handling per Michal.
