      sched: cpu accounting controller (V2) · d842de87
      Srivatsa Vaddagiri 提交于
      Commit cfb52856 removed a useful feature for
      us, which provided a cpu accounting resource controller.  This feature would be
      useful if someone wants to group tasks only for accounting purpose and doesnt
      really want to exercise any control over their cpu consumption.
      
      The patch below reintroduces the feature. It is based on Paul Menage's
      original patch (Commit 62d0df64), with
      these differences:
      
              - Removed load average information. I felt it needs more thought (esp
      	  to deal with SMP and virtualized platforms) and can be added for
      	  2.6.25 after more discussions.
              - Convert group cpu usage to be nanosecond accurate (as rest of the cfs
      	  stats are) and invoke cpuacct_charge() from the respective scheduler
      	  classes
      	- Make accounting scalable on SMP systems by splitting the usage
      	  counter to be per-cpu
      	- Move the code from kernel/cpu_acct.c to kernel/sched.c (since the
      	  code is not big enough to warrant a new file and also this rightly
      	  needs to live inside the scheduler. Also things like accessing
      	  rq->lock while reading cpu usage becomes easier if the code lived in
      	  kernel/sched.c)
      
      The patch also modifies the cpu controller not to provide the same accounting
      information.
      Tested-by: NBalbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
      
       Tested the patches on top of 2.6.24-rc3. The patches work fine. Ran
       some simple tests like cpuspin (spin on the cpu), ran several tasks in
       the same group and timed them. Compared their time stamps with
       cpuacct.usage.

      revert "Task Control Groups: example CPU accounting subsystem" · cfb52856
      Andrew Morton 提交于
      Revert 62d0df64.
      
      This was originally intended as a simple initial example of how to create a
      control groups subsystem; it wasn't intended for mainline, but I didn't make
      this clear enough to Andrew.
      
      The CFS cgroup subsystem now has better functionality for the per-cgroup usage
      accounting (based directly on CFS stats) than the "usage" status file in this
      patch, and the "load" status file is rather simplistic - although having a
      per-cgroup load average report would be a useful feature, I don't believe this
      patch actually provides it.  If it gets into the final 2.6.24 we'd probably
      have to support this interface for ever.

      cgroups: implement namespace tracking subsystem · 858d72ea
      Serge E. Hallyn 提交于
      When a task enters a new namespace via a clone() or unshare(), a new cgroup
      is created and the task moves into it.
      
      This version names cgroups which are automatically created using
      cgroup_clone() as "node_<pid>" where pid is the pid of the unsharing or
      cloned process.  (Thanks Pavel for the idea) This is safe because if the
      process unshares again, it will create
      
      	/cgroups/(...)/node_<pid>/node_<pid>
      
      The only possibilities (AFAICT) for a -EEXIST on unshare are
      
      	1. pid wraparound
      	2. a process fails an unshare, then tries again.
      
      Case 1 is unlikely enough that I ignore it (at least for now).  In case 2, the
      node_<pid> will be empty and can be rmdir'ed to make the subsequent unshare()
      succeed.
      
      Changelog:
      	Name cloned cgroups as "node_<pid>".

      Remove the filesystem support logic from the cpusets system and makes cpusets
      a cgroup subsystem
      
      The "cpuset" filesystem becomes a dummy filesystem; attempts to mount it get
      passed through to the cgroup filesystem with the appropriate options to
      emulate the old cpuset filesystem behaviour.

      Task Control Groups: basic task cgroup framework · ddbcc7e8
      Paul Menage 提交于
      Generic Process Control Groups
      --------------------------
      
      There have recently been various proposals floating around for
      resource management/accounting and other task grouping subsystems in
      the kernel, including ResGroups, User BeanCounters, NSProxy
      cgroups, and others.  These all need the basic abstraction of being
      able to group together multiple processes in an aggregate, in order to
      track/limit the resources permitted to those processes, or control
      other behaviour of the processes, and all implement this grouping in
      different ways.
      
      This patchset provides a framework for tracking and grouping processes
      into arbitrary "cgroups" and assigning arbitrary state to those
      groupings, in order to control the behaviour of the cgroup as an
      aggregate.
      
      The intention is that the various resource management and
      virtualization/cgroup efforts can also become task cgroup
      clients, with the result that:
      
      - the userspace APIs are (somewhat) normalised
      
      - it's easier to test e.g. the ResGroups CPU controller in
       conjunction with the BeanCounters memory controller, or use either of
      them as the resource-control portion of a virtual server system.
      
      - the additional kernel footprint of any of the competing resource
       management systems is substantially reduced, since it doesn't need
       to provide process grouping/containment, hence improving their
       chances of getting into the kernel
      
      This patch:
      
      Add the main task cgroups framework - the cgroup filesystem, and the
      basic structures for tracking membership and associating subsystem state
      objects to tasks.
