We have some read-only files and write-only files, but currently they are all set to 0644, which is counter-intuitive and cause trouble for some cgroup tools like libcgroup. This patch adds 'mode' to struct cftype to allow cgroup subsys to set it's own files' file mode, and for the most cases cft->mode can be default to 0 and cgroup will figure out proper mode.

In following situation, with memory subsystem, /groupA use_hierarchy==1 /01 some tasks /02 some tasks /03 some tasks /04 empty When tasks under 01/02/03 hit limit on /groupA, hierarchical reclaim is triggered and the kernel walks tree under groupA. In this case, rmdir /groupA/04 fails with -EBUSY frequently because of temporal refcnt from the kernel. In general. cgroup can be rmdir'd if there are no children groups and no tasks. Frequent fails of rmdir() is not useful to users. (And the reason for -EBUSY is unknown to users.....in most cases) This patch tries to modify above behavior, by - retries if css_refcnt is got by someone. - add "return value" to pre_destroy() and allows subsystem to say "we're really busy!"

Patch for Per-CSS(Cgroup Subsys State) ID and private hierarchy code. This patch attaches unique ID to each css and provides following. - css_lookup(subsys, id) returns pointer to struct cgroup_subysys_state of id. - css_get_next(subsys, id, rootid, depth, foundid) returns the next css under "root" by scanning When cgroup_subsys->use_id is set, an id for css is maintained. The cgroup framework only parepares - css_id of root css for subsys - id is automatically attached at creation of css. - id is *not* freed automatically. Because the cgroup framework don't know lifetime of cgroup_subsys_state. free_css_id() function is provided. This must be called by subsys. There are several reasons to develop this. - Saving space .... For example, memcg's swap_cgroup is array of pointers to cgroup. But it is not necessary to be very fast. By replacing pointers(8bytes per ent) to ID (2byes per ent), we can reduce much amount of memory usage. - Scanning without lock. CSS_ID provides "scan id under this ROOT" function. By this, scanning css under root can be written without locks. ex) do { rcu_read_lock(); next = cgroup_get_next(subsys, id, root, &found); /* check sanity of next here */ css_tryget(); rcu_read_unlock(); id = found + 1 } while(...) Characteristics: - Each css has unique ID under subsys. - Lifetime of ID is controlled by subsys. - css ID contains "ID" and "Depth in hierarchy" and stack of hierarchy - Allowed ID is 1-65535, ID 0 is UNUSED ID. Design Choices: - scan-by-ID v.s. scan-by-tree-walk. As /proc's pid scan does, scan-by-ID is robust when scanning is done by following kind of routine. scan -> rest a while(release a lock) -> conitunue from interrupted memcg's hierarchical reclaim does this. - When subsys->use_id is set, # of css in the system is limited to 65535.

The ns_proxy cgroup allows moving processes to child cgroups only one level deep at a time. This commit relaxes this restriction and makes it possible to attach tasks directly to grandchild cgroups, e.g.: ($pid is in the root cgroup) echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks Previously this operation would fail with -EPERM and would have to be performed as two steps: echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/tasks echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks Also, the target cgroup no longer needs to be empty to move a task there.

Sometimes block_write_begin() can map buffers in a page but later we fail to copy data into those buffers (because the source page has been paged out in the mean time). We then end up with !uptodate mapped buffers. To add a bit more to the confusion, block_write_end() does not commit any data (and thus does not any mark buffers as uptodate) if we didn't succeed with copying all the data. Commit f4fc66a8 (ext3: convert to new aops) missed these cases and thus we were inserting non-uptodate buffers to transaction's list which confuses JBD code and it reports IO errors, aborts a transaction and generally makes users afraid about their data ;-P. This patch fixes the problem by reorganizing ext3_..._write_end() code to first call block_write_end() to mark buffers with valid data uptodate and after that we file only uptodate buffers to transaction's lists. We also fix a problem where we could leave blocks allocated beyond i_size (i_disksize in fact) because of failed write. We now add inode to orphan list when write fails (to be safe in case we crash) and then truncate blocks beyond i_size in a separate transaction.

ext3_iget() returns -ESTALE if invoked on a deleted inode, in order to report errors to NFS properly. However, in ext[234]_lookup(), this -ESTALE can be propagated to userspace if the filesystem is corrupted such that a directory entry references a deleted inode. This leads to a misleading error message - "Stale NFS file handle" - and confusion on the part of the admin. The bug can be easily reproduced by creating a new filesystem, making a link to an unused inode using debugfs, then mounting and attempting to ls -l said link. This patch thus changes ext3_lookup to return -EIO if it receives -ESTALE from ext3_iget(), as ext3 does for other filesystem metadata corruption; and also invokes the appropriate ext*_error functions when this case is detected.

This is useful in very small setups where there's only one slave device on the bus. This patch does not affect existing setups.

So, define a unique flag value for AS_UNEVICTABLE--up close to the other flags, [at the cost of an additional #ifdef] so we'll notice next time. Note that #ifdef is not actually required, if we don't mind having the unused flag value defined. Replace #defines with an enum.

The calculation of the value nr in do_xip_mapping_read is incorrect. If the copy required more than one iteration in the do while loop the copies variable will be non-zero. The maximum length that may be passed to the call to copy_to_user(buf+copied, xip_mem+offset, nr) is len-copied but the check only compares against (nr > len). This bug is the cause for the heap corruption Carsten has been chasing for so long: *** glibc detected *** /bin/bash: free(): invalid next size (normal): 0x00000000800e39f0 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6[0x200000b9b44] /lib64/libc.so.6(cfree+0x8e)[0x200000bdade] /bin/bash(free_buffered_stream+0x32)[0x80050e4e] /bin/bash(close_buffered_stream+0x1c)[0x80050ea4] /bin/bash(unset_bash_input+0x2a)[0x8001c366] /bin/bash(make_child+0x1d4)[0x8004115c] /bin/bash[0x8002fc3c] /bin/bash(execute_command_internal+0x656)[0x8003048e] /bin/bash(execute_command+0x5e)[0x80031e1e] /bin/bash(execute_command_internal+0x79a)[0x800305d2] /bin/bash(execute_command+0x5e)[0x80031e1e] /bin/bash(reader_loop+0x270)[0x8001efe0] /bin/bash(main+0x1328)[0x8001e960] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0x100)[0x200000592a8] /bin/bash(clearerr+0x5e)[0x8001c092] With this bug fix the commit 0e4a9b59 "ext2/xip: refuse to change xip flag during remount with busy inodes" can be removed again.

Align rekey_work. Even though it's infrequent, we may as well line it up.

Even though vmstat_work is marked deferrable, there are still benefits to aligning it. For certain applications we want to keep OS jitter as low as possible and aligning timers and work so they occur together can reduce their overall impact.
