      While updating cgroup_freezer locking, 68fafb77d827 ("cgroup_freezer:
      replace freezer->lock with freezer_mutex") introduced a bug in
      update_if_frozen() where it returns with rcu_read_lock() held.  Fix it
      by adding rcu_read_unlock() before returning.

      cgroup_freezer: replace freezer->lock with freezer_mutex · e5ced8eb
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      After 96d365e0 ("cgroup: make css_set_lock a rwsem and rename it
      to css_set_rwsem"), css task iterators requires sleepable context as
      it may block on css_set_rwsem.  I missed that cgroup_freezer was
      iterating tasks under IRQ-safe spinlock freezer->lock.  This leads to

      freezer->lock used to be used in hot paths but that time is long gone
      and there's no reason for the lock to be IRQ-safe spinlock or even
      per-cgroup.  In fact, given the fact that a cgroup may contain large
      number of tasks, it's not a good idea to iterate over them while
      holding IRQ-safe spinlock.
      
      Let's simplify locking by replacing per-cgroup freezer->lock with
      global freezer_mutex.  This also makes the comments explaining the
      intricacies of policy inheritance and the locking around it as the
      states are protected by a common mutex.
      
      The conversion is mostly straight-forward.  The followings are worth
      mentioning.
      
      * freezer_css_online() no longer needs double locking.
      
      * freezer_attach() now performs propagation simply while holding
        freezer_mutex.  update_if_frozen() race no longer exists and the
        comment is removed.
      
      * freezer_fork() now tests whether the task is in root cgroup using
        the new task_css_is_root() without doing rcu_read_lock/unlock().  If
        not, it grabs freezer_mutex and performs the operation.
      
      * freezer_read() and freezer_change_state() grab freezer_mutex across
        the whole operation and pin the css while iterating so that each
        descendant processing happens in sleepable context.
      
      Fixes: 96d365e0 ("cgroup: make css_set_lock a rwsem and rename it to css_set_rwsem")

      cgroup: introduce task_css_is_root() · 5024ae29
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Determining the css of a task usually requires RCU read lock as that's
      the only thing which keeps the returned css accessible till its
      reference is acquired; however, testing whether a task belongs to the
      root can be performed without dereferencing the returned css by
      comparing the returned pointer against the root one in init_css_set[]
      which never changes.
      
      Implement task_css_is_root() which can be invoked in any context.
      This will be used by the scheduled cgroup_freezer change.
      
      v2: cgroup no longer supports modular controllers.  No need to export
          init_css_set.  Pointed out by Li.

      blkcg: use trylock on blkcg_pol_mutex in blkcg_reset_stats() · 36c38fb7
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      During the recent conversion of cgroup to kernfs, cgroup_tree_mutex
      which nests above both the kernfs s_active protection and cgroup_mutex
      is added to synchronize cgroup file type operations as cgroup_mutex
      needed to be grabbed from some file operations and thus can't be put
      above s_active protection.
      
      While this arrangement mostly worked for cgroup, this triggered the
      following lockdep warning.

      device_cgroup: check if exception removal is allowed · d2c2b11c
      Aristeu Rozanski 提交于
      [PATCH v3 1/2] device_cgroup: check if exception removal is allowed
      
      When the device cgroup hierarchy was introduced in
      	bd2953eb - devcg: propagate local changes down the hierarchy
      
      a specific case was overlooked. Consider the hierarchy bellow:
      
      	A	default policy: ALLOW, exceptions will deny access
      	 \
      	  B	default policy: ALLOW, exceptions will deny access
      
      There's no need to verify when an new exception is added to B because
      in this case exceptions will deny access to further devices, which is
      always fine. Hierarchy in device cgroup only makes sure B won't have
      more access than A.
      
      But when an exception is removed (by writing devices.allow), it isn't
      checked if the user is in fact removing an inherited exception from A,
      thus giving more access to B.
      
      Example:
      
      	# echo 'a' >A/devices.allow
      	# echo 'c 1:3 rw' >A/devices.deny
      	# echo $$ >A/B/tasks
      	# echo >/dev/null
      	-bash: /dev/null: Operation not permitted
      	# echo 'c 1:3 w' >A/B/devices.allow
      	# echo >/dev/null
      	#
      
      This shouldn't be allowed and this patch fixes it by making sure to never allow
      exceptions in this case to be removed if the exception is partially or fully
      present on the parent.

      cgroup, memcg: implement css->id and convert css_from_id() to use it · 15a4c835
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Until now, cgroup->id has been used to identify all the associated
      csses and css_from_id() takes cgroup ID and returns the matching css
      by looking up the cgroup and then dereferencing the css associated
      with it; however, now that the lifetimes of cgroup and css are
      separate, this is incorrect and breaks on the unified hierarchy when a
      controller is disabled and enabled back again before the previous
      instance is released.
      
      This patch adds css->id which is a subsystem-unique ID and converts
      css_from_id() to look up by the new css->id instead.  memcg is the
      only user of css_from_id() and also converted to use css->id instead.
      
      For traditional hierarchies, this shouldn't make any functional
      difference.

      easier to follow.  This makes the root csses to hold a reference on
      cgrp_dfl_root.cgrp, which is harmless.

      cgroup: use RCU free in create_css() failure path · a2bed820
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, when create_css() fails in the middle, the half-initialized
      css is freed by invoking cgroup_subsys->css_free() directly.  This
      patch updates the function so that it invokes RCU free path instead.
      As the RCU free path puts the parent css and owning cgroup, their
      references are now acquired right after a new css is successfully
      allocated.
      
      This doesn't make any visible difference now but is to enable
      implementing css->id and RCU protected lookup by such IDs.

      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, cgroup_root->cgroup_idr is protected by cgroup_mutex, which
      ends up requiring cgroup_put() to be invoked under sleepable context.
      This is okay for now but is an unusual requirement and we'll soon add
      css->id which will have the same problem but won't be able to simply
      grab cgroup_mutex as removal will have to happen from css_release()
      which can't sleep.
      
      Introduce cgroup_idr_lock and idr_alloc/replace/remove() wrappers
      which protects the idr operations with the lock and use them for
      cgroup_root->cgroup_idr.  cgroup_put() no longer needs to grab
      cgroup_mutex and css_from_id() is updated to always require RCU read
      lock instead of either RCU read lock or cgroup_mutex, which doesn't
      affect the existing users.

      cgroup: implement cgroup.populated for the default hierarchy · 842b597e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      cgroup users often need a way to determine when a cgroup's
      subhierarchy becomes empty so that it can be cleaned up.  cgroup
      currently provides release_agent for it; unfortunately, this mechanism
      is riddled with issues.
      
      * It delivers events by forking and execing a userland binary
        specified as the release_agent.  This is a long deprecated method of
        notification delivery.  It's extremely heavy, slow and cumbersome to
        integrate with larger infrastructure.
      
      * There is single monitoring point at the root.  There's no way to
        delegate management of a subtree.
      
      * The event isn't recursive.  It triggers when a cgroup doesn't have
        any tasks or child cgroups.  Events for internal nodes trigger only
        after all children are removed.  This again makes it impossible to
        delegate management of a subtree.
      
      * Events are filtered from the kernel side.  "notify_on_release" file
        is used to subscribe to or suppress release event.  This is
        unnecessarily complicated and probably done this way because event
        delivery itself was expensive.
      
      This patch implements interface file "cgroup.populated" which can be
      used to monitor whether the cgroup's subhierarchy has tasks in it or
      not.  Its value is 0 if there is no task in the cgroup and its
      descendants; otherwise, 1, and kernfs_notify() notificaiton is
      triggers when the value changes, which can be monitored through poll
      and [di]notify.
      
      This is a lot ligther and simpler and trivially allows delegating
      management of subhierarchy - subhierarchy monitoring can block further
      propgation simply by putting itself or another process in the root of
      the subhierarchy and monitor events that it's interested in from there
      without interfering with monitoring higher in the tree.
      
      v2: Patch description updated as per Serge.
      
      v3: "cgroup.subtree_populated" renamed to "cgroup.populated".  The
          subtree_ prefix was a bit confusing because
          "cgroup.subtree_control" uses it to denote the tree rooted at the
          cgroup sans the cgroup itself while the populated state includes
          the cgroup itself.

      kernfs: make kernfs_notify() trigger inotify events too · d911d987
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_notify() is used to indicate either new data is available or
      the content of a file has changed.  It currently only triggers poll
      which may not be the most convenient to monitor especially when there
      are a lot to monitor.  Let's hook it up to fsnotify too so that the
      events can be monitored via inotify too.
      
      fsnotify_modify() requires file * but kernfs_notify() doesn't have any
      specific file associated; however, we can walk all super_blocks
      associated with a kernfs_root and as kernfs always associate one ino
      with inode and one dentry with an inode, it's trivial to look up the
      dentry associated with a given kernfs_node.  As any active monitor
      would pin dentry, just looking up existing dentry is enough.  This
      patch looks up the dentry associated with the specified kernfs_node
      and generates events equivalent to fsnotify_modify().
      
      Note that as fsnotify doesn't provide fsnotify_modify() equivalent
      which can be called with dentry, kernfs_notify() directly calls
      fsnotify_parent() and fsnotify().  It might be better to add a wrapper
      in fsnotify.h instead.

      cgroup: implement dynamic subtree controller enable/disable on the default hierarchy · f8f22e53
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      cgroup is switching away from multiple hierarchies and will use one
      unified default hierarchy where controllers can be dynamically enabled
      and disabled per subtree.  The default hierarchy will serve as the
      unified hierarchy to which all controllers are attached and a css on
      the default hierarchy would need to also serve the tasks of descendant
      cgroups which don't have the controller enabled - ie. the tree may be
      collapsed from leaf towards root when viewed from specific
      controllers.  This has been implemented through effective css in the
      previous patches.
      
      This patch finally implements dynamic subtree controller
      enable/disable on the default hierarchy via a new knob -
      "cgroup.subtree_control" which controls which controllers are enabled
      on the child cgroups.  Let's assume a hierarchy like the following.
      
        root - A - B - C
                     \ D
      
      root's "cgroup.subtree_control" determines which controllers are
      enabled on A.  A's on B.  B's on C and D.  This coincides with the
      fact that controllers on the immediate sub-level are used to
      distribute the resources of the parent.  In fact, it's natural to
      assume that resource control knobs of a child belong to its parent.
      Enabling a controller in "cgroup.subtree_control" declares that
      distribution of the respective resources of the cgroup will be
      controlled.  Note that this means that controller enable states are
      shared among siblings.
      
      The default hierarchy has an extra restriction - only cgroups which
      don't contain any task may have controllers enabled in
      "cgroup.subtree_control".  Combined with the other properties of the
      default hierarchy, this guarantees that, from the view point of
      controllers, tasks are only on the leaf cgroups.  In other words, only
      leaf csses may contain tasks.  This rules out situations where child
      cgroups compete against internal tasks of the parent, which is a
      competition between two different types of entities without any clear
      way to determine resource distribution between the two.  Different
      controllers handle it differently and all the implemented behaviors
      are ambiguous, ad-hoc, cumbersome and/or just wrong.  Having this
      structural constraints imposed from cgroup core removes the burden
      from controller implementations and enables showing one consistent
      behavior across all controllers.
      
      When a controller is enabled or disabled, css associations for the
      controller in the subtrees of each child should be updated.  After
      enabling, the whole subtree of a child should point to the new css of
      the child.  After disabling, the whole subtree of a child should point
      to the cgroup's css.  This is implemented by first updating cgroup
      states such that cgroup_e_css() result points to the appropriate css
      and then invoking cgroup_update_dfl_csses() which migrates all tasks
      in the affected subtrees to the self cgroup on the default hierarchy.
      
      * When read, "cgroup.subtree_control" lists all the currently enabled
        controllers on the children of the cgroup.
      
      * White-space separated list of controller names prefixed with either
        '+' or '-' can be written to "cgroup.subtree_control".  The ones
        prefixed with '+' are enabled on the controller and '-' disabled.
      
      * A controller can be enabled iff the parent's
        "cgroup.subtree_control" enables it and disabled iff no child's
        "cgroup.subtree_control" has it enabled.
      
      * If a cgroup has tasks, no controller can be enabled via
        "cgroup.subtree_control".  Likewise, if "cgroup.subtree_control" has
        some controllers enabled, tasks can't be migrated into the cgroup.
      
      * All controllers which aren't bound on other hierarchies are
        automatically associated with the root cgroup of the default
        hierarchy.  All the controllers which are bound to the default
        hierarchy are listed in the read-only file "cgroup.controllers" in
        the root directory.
      
      * "cgroup.controllers" in all non-root cgroups is read-only file whose
        content is equal to that of "cgroup.subtree_control" of the parent.
        This indicates which controllers can be used in the cgroup's
        "cgroup.subtree_control".
      
      This is still experimental and there are some holes, one of which is
      that ->can_attach() failure during cgroup_update_dfl_csses() may leave
      the cgroups in an undefined state.  The issues will be addressed by
      future patches.
      
      v2: Non-root cgroups now also have "cgroup.controllers".

      cgroup: prepare migration path for unified hierarchy · f817de98
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Unified hierarchy implementation would require re-migrating tasks onto
      the same cgroup on the default hierarchy to reflect updated effective
      csses.  Update cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst() so that it accepts NULL as
      the destination cgrp.  When NULL is specified, the destination is
      considered to be the cgroup on the default hierarchy associated with
      each css_set.
      
      After this change, the identity check in cgroup_migrate_add_src()
      isn't sufficient for noop detection as the associated csses may change
      without any cgroup association changing.  The only way to tell whether
      a migration is noop or not is testing whether the source and
      destination csets are identical.  The noop check in
      cgroup_migrate_add_src() is removed and cset identity test is added to
      cgroup_migreate_prepare_dst().  If it's detected that source and
      destination csets are identical, the cset is removed removed from
      @preloaded_csets and all the migration nodes are cleared which makes
      cgroup_migrate() ignore the cset.

      cgroup: teach css_task_iter about effective csses · 3ebb2b6e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, css_task_iter iterates tasks associated with a css by
      visiting each css_set associated with the owning cgroup and walking
      tasks of each of them.  This works fine for !unified hierarchies as
      each cgroup has its own css for each associated subsystem on the
      hierarchy; however, on the planned unified hierarchy, a cgroup may not
      have csses associated and its tasks would be considered associated
      with the matching css of the nearest ancestor which has the subsystem
      enabled.
      
      This means that on the default unified hierarchy, just walking all
      tasks associated with a cgroup isn't enough to walk all tasks which
      are associated with the specified css.  If any of its children doesn't
      have the matching css enabled, task iteration should also include all
      tasks from the subtree.  We already added cgroup->e_csets[] to list
      all css_sets effectively associated with a given css and walk css_sets
      on that list instead to achieve such iteration.
      
      This patch updates css_task_iter iteration such that it walks css_sets
      on cgroup->e_csets[] instead of cgroup->cset_links if iteration is
      requested on an non-dummy css.  Thanks to the previous iteration
      update, this change can be achieved with the addition of
      css_task_iter->ss and minimal updates to css_advance_task_iter() and
      css_task_iter_start().

      cgroup: reorganize css_task_iter · 0f0a2b4f
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      This patch reorganizes css_task_iter so that adding effective css
      support is easier.
      
      * s/->cset_link/->cset_pos/ and s/->task/->task_pos/ for consistency
      
      * ->origin_css is used to determine whether the iteration reached the
        last css_set.  Replace it with explicit ->cset_head so that
        css_advance_task_iter() doesn't have to know the termination
        condition directly.
      
      * css_task_iter_next() currently assumes that it's walking list of
        cgrp_cset_link and reaches into the current cset through the current
        link to determine the termination conditions for task walking.  As
        this won't always be true for effective css walking, add
        ->tasks_head and ->mg_tasks_head and use them to control task
        walking so that css_task_iter_next() doesn't have to know how
        css_sets are being walked.
      
      This patch doesn't make any behavior changes.  The iteration logic
      stays unchanged after the patch.

      cgroup: make css_next_child() skip missing csses · 3b281afb
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      css_next_child() walks the children of the specified css.  It does
      this by finding the next cgroup and then returning the requested css.
      On the default unified hierarchy, a cgroup may not have a css
      associated with it even if the hierarchy has the subsystem enabled.
      This patch updates css_next_child() so that it skips children without
      the requested css associated.

      cgroup: implement cgroup->e_csets[] · 2d8f243a
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      On the default unified hierarchy, a cgroup may be associated with
      csses of its ancestors, which means that a css of a given cgroup may
      be associated with css_sets of descendant cgroups.  This means that we
      can't walk all tasks associated with a css by iterating the css_sets
      associated with the cgroup as there are css_sets which are pointing to
      the css but linked on the descendants.
      
      This patch adds per-subsystem list heads cgroup->e_csets[].  Any
      css_set which is pointing to a css is linked to
      css->cgroup->e_csets[$SUBSYS_ID] through
      css_set->e_cset_node[$SUBSYS_ID].  The lists are protected by
      css_set_rwsem and will allow us to walk all css_sets associated with a
      given css so that we can find out all associated tasks.
