pids controller is completely broken in that it uncharges when a task
exits allowing zombies to escape resource control. With the recent
updates, cgroup core now maintains cgroup association till task free
and pids controller can be fixed by uncharging on free instead of
exit.
This patch adds cgroup_subsys->free() method and update pids

cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the
exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup.
This is unnecessary and undesirable.
No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with
non-root cgroups. Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the
association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep
consistent with the cgroup core behavior.
Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held
by zombies or determine where the zombies came from. Currently, pids
controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies
always escape the resource restriction. With cgroup association being
reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful.
There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit. The zombie can
be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on
"cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup
removal. It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup
membership is maintained. This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies
associated with their cgroups at the time of exit.
* Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set
lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set
while pinning and pointing to the css_set. This keeps css_set
association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs"
and populated_cnt tracking. The css_set reference is dropped when
the task_struct is freed.
* ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the
associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set. Removed.
* cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks.
There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit. The final
schedule out is enough. The callbacks are removed.
* On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes. "/proc/PID/cgroup"
still reports "/" for all zombies. On the default hierarchy,
"/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged
to at the time of exit. If the cgroup gets removed before the task
is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended.
v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when
!CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

css_set_rwsem is the inner lock protecting css_sets and is accessed
from hot paths such as fork and exit. Internally, it has no reason to
be a rwsem or even mutex. There are no internal blocking operations
while holding it. This was rwsem because css task iteration used to
expose it to external iterator users. As the previous patch updated
css task iteration such that the locking is not leaked to its users,
there's no reason to keep it a rwsem.
This patch converts css_set_rwsem to a spinlock and rename it to
css_set_lock. It uses bh-safe operations as a planned usage needs to
access it from RCU callback context.

css_sets are synchronized through css_set_rwsem but the locking scheme
is kinda bizarre. The hot paths - fork and exit - have to write lock
the rwsem making the rw part pointless; furthermore, many readers
already hold cgroup_mutex.
One of the readers is css task iteration. It read locks the rwsem
over the entire duration of iteration. This leads to silly locking
behavior. When cpuset tries to migrate processes of a cgroup to a
different NUMA node, css_set_rwsem is held across the entire migration
attempt which can take a long time locking out forking, exiting and
other cgroup operations.
This patch updates css task iteration so that it locks css_set_rwsem
only while the iterator is being advanced. css task iteration
involves two levels - css_set and task iteration. As css_sets in use
are practically immutable, simply pinning the current one is enough
for resuming iteration afterwards. Task iteration is tricky as tasks
may leave their css_set while iteration is in progress. This is
solved by keeping track of active iterators and advancing them if
their next task leaves its css_set.
v2: put_task_struct() in css_task_iter_next() moved outside
css_set_rwsem. A later patch will add cgroup operations to
task_struct free path which may grab the same lock and this avoids
deadlock possibilities.
css_set_move_task() updated to use list_for_each_entry_safe() when
walking task_iters and advancing them. This is necessary as
advancing an iter may remove it from the list.

A task is associated and disassociated with its css_set in three
places - during migration, after a new task is created and when a task
exits. The first is handled by cgroup_task_migrate() and the latter
two are open-coded.
These are similar operations and spreading them over multiple places
makes it harder to follow and update. This patch collects all task
css_set [dis]association operations into css_set_move_task().
While css_set_move_task() may check whether populated state needs to
be updated when not strictly necessary, the behavior is essentially
equivalent before and after this patch.

cgroup_destroy_locked() currently tests whether any css_sets are
associated to reject removal if the cgroup contains tasks. This works
because a css_set's refcnt converges with the number of tasks linked
to it and thus there's no css_set linked to a cgroup if it doesn't
have any live tasks.
To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of
css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the
css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even
when it doesn't have any live tasks.
This patch updates cgroup_destroy_locked() so that it tests
cgroup_is_populated(), which counts the number of populated css_sets,

cgroup_update_dfl_csses() is responsible for migrating processes when
controllers are enabled or disabled on the default hierarchy. As the
css association changes for all the processes in the affected cgroups,
this involves migrating multiple processes.
Up until now, it was implemented by migrating process-by-process until
the source css_sets are empty; however, this means that if a process
fails to migrate after some succeed before it, the recovery is very
tricky. This was considered okay as subsystems weren't allowed to
reject process migration on the default hierarchy; unfortunately,
enforcing this policy turned out to be problematic for certain types
of resources - realtime slices for now.
As such, the default hierarchy is gonna allow restricted failures
during migration and to support that this patch makes
cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomically
rather than one-by-one. The preceding patches made subsystems ready
for multi-process migration and factored out taskset operations making
this almost trivial. All tasks of the target processes are put in the
same taskset and the migration operations are performed once which
either fails or succeeds for all.

It wasn't explicitly documented but, when a process is being migrated,
cpuset and memcg depend on cgroup_taskset_first() returning the
threadgroup leader; however, this approach is somewhat ghetto and
would no longer work for the planned multi-process migration.
This patch introduces explicit cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader() which
iterates over only the threadgroup leaders and replaces
cgroup_taskset_first() usages for accessing the leader with it.
This prepares both memcg and cpuset for multi-process migration. This

cgroup core handles creations and removals of cgroup interface files
as described by cftypes. There are cases where the handle for a given
file instance is necessary, for example, to generate a file modified
event. Currently, this is handled by explicitly matching the callback
method pointer and storing the file handle manually in
cgroup_add_file(). While this simple approach works for cgroup core
files, it can't for controller interface files.
This patch generalizes cgroup interface file handle handling. struct
cgroup_file is defined and each cftype can optionally tell cgroup core
to store the file handle by setting ->file_offset. A file handle
remains accessible as long as the containing css is accessible.
Both "cgroup.procs" and "cgroup.events" are converted to use the new
generic mechanism instead of hooking directly into cgroup_add_file().
Also, cgroup_file_notify() which takes a struct cgroup_file and
generates a file modified event on it is added and replaces explicit
kernfs_notify() invocations.
This generalizes cgroup file handle handling and allows controllers to
generate file modified notifications.

@cgrp_override is used only when files needs to be created on /

After a file creation failure, cgroup_addrm_files() it didn't remove
the files which had already been created. When cgroup_populate_dir()
is the caller, this is fine as the caller performs cleanup; however,
for other callers, this may leave unactivated dangling files behind.
As kernfs directory removals are recursive, this doesn't lead to
permanent memory leak but it can, for example, fail future attempts to
create those files again.
There's no point in keeping around this sort of subtlety and it gets
in the way of planned updates to file handling. This patch makes

The cgroup side of threadgroup locking uses signal_struct->group_rwsem
to synchronize against threadgroup changes. This per-process rwsem
adds small overhead to thread creation, exit and exec paths, forces
cgroup code paths to do lock-verify-unlock-retry dance in a couple
places and makes it impossible to atomically perform operations across
multiple processes.
This patch replaces signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global
percpu_rwsem cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem which is cheaper on the reader
side and contained in cgroups proper. This patch converts one-to-one.
This does make writer side heavier and lower the granularity; however,
cgroup process migration is a fairly cold path, we do want to optimize
thread operations over it and cgroup migration operations don't take
enough time for the lower granularity to matter.

Many file systems that implement the show_options hook fail to correctly
escape their output which could lead to unescaped characters (e.g. new

could lead to confusion, spoofed entries (resulting in things like
systemd issuing false d-bus "mount" notifications), and who knows what
else. This looks like it would only be the root user stepping on
themselves, but it's possible weird things could happen in containers or
in other situations with delegated mount privileges.
Here's an example using overlay with setuid fusermount trusting the
contents of /proc/mounts (via the /etc/mtab symlink). Imagine the use
of "sudo" is something more sneaky:
$ BASE="ovl"
$ MNT="$BASE/mnt"
$ LOW="$BASE/lower"
$ UP="$BASE/upper"
$ WORK="$BASE/work/ 0 0
none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000"
$ mkdir -p "$LOW" "$UP" "$WORK"
$ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=$LOW,upperdir=$UP,workdir=$WORK" none /mnt
$ cat /proc/mounts
none /root/ovl/mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=ovl/lower,upperdir=ovl/upper,workdir=ovl/work/ 0 0
none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000 0 0
$ fusermount -u /proc
$ cat /proc/mounts
cat: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory
This fixes the problem by adding new seq_show_option and
seq_show_option_n helpers, and updating the vulnerable show_option
handlers to use them as needed. Some, like SELinux, need to be open
coded due to unusual existing escape mechanisms.

for-4.3-unified-base was temporarily branched so that other trees
(block) can pull cgroup core changes that blkcg changes depend on.

This allows cgroup subsystems to use a different name on the unified

->legacy_name elsewhere. If ->legacy_name is not explicitly set, it's
automatically set to ->name and the userland visible behavior remains
unchanged.

Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.
Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.
There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems
mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree
directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories
for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container
projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.
This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime,
read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
attributes remains for another time.
This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of
/proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
converted) and is not now actively wrong.
There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
I will mention briefly.
It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user
namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly
so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
performance part of pathname resolution.
As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as
such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once
they are recognized"

On traditional hierarchies, if a task has write access to "tasks" or
"cgroup.procs" file of a cgroup and its euid agrees with the target,
it can move the target to the cgroup; however, consider the following
scenario. The owner of each cgroup is in the parentheses.
R (root) - 0 (root) - 00 (user1) - 000 (user1)
| \ 001 (user1)
\ 1 (root) - 10 (user1)
The subtrees of 00 and 10 are delegated to user1; however, while both
subtrees may belong to the same user, it is clear that the two
subtrees are to be isolated - they're under completely separate
resource limits imposed by 0 and 1, respectively. Note that 0 and 1
aren't strictly necessary but added to ease illustrating the issue.
If user1 is allowed to move processes between the two subtrees, the
intention of the hierarchy - keeping a given group of processes under
a subtree with certain resource restrictions while delegating
management of the subtree - can be circumvented by user1.
This happens because migration permission check doesn't consider the
hierarchical nature of cgroups. To fix the issue, this patch adds an
extra permission requirement when userland tries to migrate a process
in the default hierarchy - the issuing task must have write access to
the common ancestor of "cgroup.procs" file of the ancestor in addition
to the destination's.
Conceptually, the issuer must be able to move the target process from
the source cgroup to the common ancestor of source and destination
cgroups and then to the destination. As long as delegation is done in
a proper top-down way, this guarantees that a delegatee can't smuggle
processes across disjoint delegation domains.
The next patch will add documentation on the delegation model on the
default hierarchy.

PF_NO_SETAFFINITY tasks will now fail with -EINVAL rather than
-EACCES which should be fine.
* The same permission check is now performed even when moving self by
specifying 0 as pid. This always succeeds so there's no functional
difference. We'll add more permission checks later and the benefits
of keeping both cases consistent outweigh the minute overhead of
doing perm checks on pid 0 case.

Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
The cgroup side of threadgroup locking uses signal_struct->group_rwsem
to synchronize against threadgroup changes. This per-process rwsem
adds small overhead to thread creation, exit and exec paths, forces
cgroup code paths to do lock-verify-unlock-retry dance in a couple
places and makes it impossible to atomically perform operations across
multiple processes.
This patch replaces signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global
percpu_rwsem cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem which is cheaper on the reader
side and contained in cgroups proper. This patch converts one-to-one.
This does make writer side heavier and lower the granularity; however,
cgroup process migration is a fairly cold path, we do want to optimize
thread operations over it and cgroup migration operations don't take
enough time for the lower granularity to matter.

threadgroup_change_begin/end() are used to mark the beginning and end
of threadgroup modifying operations to allow code paths which require
a threadgroup to stay stable across blocking operations to synchronize
against those sections using threadgroup_lock/unlock().
It's currently implemented as a general mechanism in sched.h using
per-signal_struct rwsem; however, this never grew non-cgroup use cases
and becomes noop if !CONFIG_CGROUPS. It turns out that cgroups is
gonna be better served with a different sycnrhonization scheme and is
a bit silly to keep cgroups specific details as a general mechanism.
What's general here is identifying the places where threadgroups are
modified. This patch restructures threadgroup locking so that
threadgroup_change_begin/end() become a place where subsystems which
need to sycnhronize against threadgroup changes can hook into.
cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin/end() which operate on the
per-signal_struct rwsem are created and threadgroup_lock/unlock() are
moved to cgroup.c and made static.
This is pure reorganization which doesn't cause any functional

Since b2052564e6 ("mm: memcontrol: continue cache reclaim from
offlined groups"), re-mounting the memory controller after using it is
very likely to hang.
The cgroup core assumes that any remaining references after deleting a
cgroup are temporary in nature, and synchroneously waits for them, but
the above-mentioned commit has left-over page cache pin its css until
it is reclaimed naturally. That being said, swap entries and charged
kernel memory have been doing the same indefinite pinning forever, the
bug is just more likely to trigger with left-over page cache.
Reparenting kernel memory is highly impractical, which leaves changing
the cgroup assumptions to reflect this: once a controller has been
mounted and used, it has internal state that is independent from mount
and cgroup lifetime. It can be unmounted and remounted, but it can't
be reconfigured during subsequent mounts.
Don't offline the controller root as long as there are any children,
dead or alive. A remount will no longer wait for these old references
to drain, it will simply mount the persistent controller state again.

When a subsystem is offlined, its entry on @cgrp->subsys[] is cleared
asynchronously. If cgroup_subtree_control_write() is requested to
enable the subsystem again before the entry is cleared, it has to wait
for the previous offlining to finish and clear the @cgrp->subsys[]
entry before trying to enable the subsystem again.
This is currently done while verifying the input enable / disable
parameters. This used to be correct but f63070d350 ("cgroup: make
interface files visible iff enabled on cgroup->subtree_control")
breaks it. The commit is one of the commits implementing subsystem
dependency.
Through subsystem dependency, some subsystems may be enabled and
disabled implicitly in addition to the explicitly requested ones. The
actual subsystems to be enabled and disabled are determined during
@css_enable/disable calculation. The current offline wait logic skips
the ones which are already implicitly enabled and then waits for
subsystems in @enable; however, this misses the subsystems which may
be implicitly enabled through dependency from @enable. If such
implicitly subsystem hasn't yet finished offlining yet, the function
ends up trying to create a css when its @cgrp->subsys[] slot is
already occupied triggering BUG_ON() in init_and_link_css().
Fix it by moving the wait logic after @css_enable is calculated and
waiting for all the subsystems in @css_enable. This fixes the above
bug as the mask contains all subsystems which are to be enabled
including the ones enabled through dependencies.

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...
- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.
This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.
Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.
- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.
- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.
There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans

This reverts commit 0c7bf3e8ca.
If there are child cgroups in the cgroupfs and then we umount it,
the superblock will be destroyed but the cgroup_root will be kept
around. When we mount it again, cgroup_mount() will find this
cgroup_root and allocate a new sb for it.
So with this commit we will be trapped in a dead loop in the case
described above, because kernfs_pin_sb() keeps returning NULL.
Currently I don't see how we can avoid using both pinned_sb and
new_sb, so just revert it.

With the recent addition of percpu_ref_reinit(), percpu_ref now can be
used as a persistent switch which can be turned on and off repeatedly
where turning off maps to killing the ref and waiting for it to drain;
however, there currently isn't a way to initialize a percpu_ref in its
off (killed and drained) state, which can be inconvenient for certain
persistent switch use cases.
Similarly, percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic/percpu() allow dynamic
selection of operation mode; however, currently a newly initialized
percpu_ref is always in percpu mode making it impossible to avoid the
latency overhead of switching to atomic mode.
This patch adds @flags to percpu_ref_init() and implements the
following flags.
* PERCPU_REF_INIT_ATOMIC : start ref in atomic mode
* PERCPU_REF_INIT_DEAD : start ref killed and drained
These flags should be able to serve the above two use cases.
v2: target_core_tpg.c conversion was missing. Fixed.

Both pinned_sb and new_sb indicate if a new superblock is needed,
so we can just remove new_sb.
Note now we must check if kernfs_tryget_sb() returns NULL, because
when it returns NULL, kernfs_mount() may still re-use an existing
superblock, which is just allocated by another concurent mount.

We call put_css_set() after setting CGRP_RELEASABLE flag in
cgroup_task_migrate(), but in other places we call it without setting
the flag. I don't see the necessity of this flag.
Moreover once the flag is set, it will never be cleared, unless writing
to the notify_on_release control file, so it can be quite confusing
if we look at the output of debug.releasable.

"Mostly changes to get the v2 interface ready. The core features are
mostly ready now and I think it's reasonable to expect to drop the
devel mask in one or two devel cycles at least for a subset of
controllers.
- cgroup added a controller dependency mechanism so that block cgroup
can depend on memory cgroup. This will be used to finally support
IO provisioning on the writeback traffic, which is currently being
implemented.
- The v2 interface now uses a separate table so that the interface
files for the new interface are explicitly declared in one place.
Each controller will explicitly review and add the files for the
new interface.
- cpuset is getting ready for the hierarchical behavior which is in
the similar style with other controllers so that an ancestor's
configuration change doesn't change the descendants' configurations
irreversibly and processes aren't silently migrated when a CPU or
node goes down.
All the changes are to the new interface and no behavior changed for
the multiple hierarchies"

Until now, cftype arrays carried files for both the default and legacy
hierarchies and the files which needed to be used on only one of them
were flagged with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE. This
gets confusing very quickly and we may end up exposing interface files
to the default hierarchy without thinking it through.
This patch makes cgroup core provide separate sets of interfaces for
cftype handling so that the cftypes for the default and legacy
hierarchies are clearly distinguished. The previous two patches
renamed the existing ones so that they clearly indicate that they're
for the legacy hierarchies. This patch adds the interface for the
default hierarchy and apply them selectively depending on the
hierarchy type.
* cftypes added through cgroup_subsys->dfl_cftypes and
cgroup_add_dfl_cftypes() only show up on the default hierarchy.
* cftypes added through cgroup_subsys->legacy_cftypes and
cgroup_add_legacy_cftypes() only show up on the legacy hierarchies.
* cgroup_subsys->dfl_cftypes and ->legacy_cftypes can point to the
same array for the cases where the interface files are identical on
both types of hierarchies.
* This makes all the existing subsystem interface files legacy-only by
default and all subsystems will have no interface file created when
enabled on the default hierarchy. Each subsystem should explicitly
review and compose the interface for the default hierarchy.
* A boot param "cgroup__DEVEL__legacy_files_on_dfl" is added which
makes subsystems which haven't decided the interface files for the
default hierarchy to present the legacy files on the default
hierarchy so that its behavior on the default hierarchy can be
tested. As the awkward name suggests, this is for development only.
* memcg's CFTYPE_INSANE on "use_hierarchy" is noop now as the whole
array isn't used on the default hierarchy. The flag is removed.
v2: Updated documentation for cgroup__DEVEL__legacy_files_on_dfl.
v3: Clear CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL and CFTYPE_INSANE when cfts are removed

Currently, cftypes added by cgroup_add_cftypes() are used for both the
unified default hierarchy and legacy ones and subsystems can mark each
file with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE if it has to
appear only on one of them. This is quite hairy and error-prone.
Also, we may end up exposing interface files to the default hierarchy
without thinking it through.
cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype addition functions and
apply each only on the hierarchies of the matching type. This will
allow organizing cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems
to scrutinize the interface which is being exposed in the new default
hierarchy.

After the previous patch to remove sane_behavior support from
non-default hierarchies, CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR is used only to
indicate the default hierarchy while parsing mount options. This
patch makes the following cleanups around it.
* Don't show it in the mount option. Eventually the default hierarchy
will be assigned a different filesystem type.
* As sane_behavior is no longer effective on non-default hierarchies
and the default hierarchy doesn't accept any mount options,
parse_cgroupfs_options() can consider sane_behavior mount option as
indicating the default hierarchy and fail if any other options are
specified with it. While at it, remove one of the double blank
lines in the function.
* cgroup_mount() can now simply test CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR to tell
whether to mount the default hierarchy or not.
* As CGROUP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR's only role now is indicating whether
to select the default hierarchy or not during mount, it doesn't need
to be set in the default hierarchy itself. cgroup_init_early()

Currently, the blkio subsystem attributes all of writeback IOs to the
root. One of the issues is that there's no way to tell who originated
a writeback IO from block layer. Those IOs are usually issued
asynchronously from a task which didn't have anything to do with
actually generating the dirty pages. The memory subsystem, when
enabled, already keeps track of the ownership of each dirty page and
it's desirable for blkio to piggyback instead of adding its own
per-page tag.
blkio piggybacking on memory is an implementation detail which
preferably should be handled automatically without requiring explicit
userland action. To achieve that, this patch implements
cgroup_subsys->depends_on which contains the mask of subsystems which
should be enabled together when the subsystem is enabled.
The previous patches already implemented the support for enabled but
invisible subsystems and cgroup_subsys->depends_on can be easily
implemented by updating cgroup_refresh_child_subsys_mask() so that it
calculates cgroup->child_subsys_mask considering
cgroup_subsys->depends_on of the explicitly enabled subsystems.
Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt is updated to explain that
subsystems may not become immediately available after being unused
from userland and that dependency could be a factor in it. As
subsystems may already keep residual references, this doesn't
significantly change how subsystem rebinding can be used.

cgroup is implementing support for subsystem dependency which would
require a way to enable a subsystem even when it's not directly
configured through "cgroup.subtree_control".
The previous patches added support for explicitly and implicitly
enabled subsystems and showing/hiding their interface files. An
explicitly enabled subsystem may become implicitly enabled if it's
turned off through "cgroup.subtree_control" but there are subsystems
depending on it. In such cases, the subsystem, as it's turned off
when seen from userland, shouldn't enforce any resource control.
Also, the subsystem may be explicitly turned on later again and its
interface files should be as close to the intial state as possible.
This patch adds cgroup_subsys->css_reset() which is invoked when a css
is hidden. The callback should disable resource control and reset the
state to the vanilla state.

implicitly enabled through dependency.
Subsystems which are enabled due to dependency shouldn't be visible to

enabled subsytems.
* @visible paramter is added to create_css(). Interface files are

* If an already implicitly enabled subsystem is turned on through

draining is skipped.
* cgroup_subtree_control_write() computes the new target
cgroup->child_subsys_mask and create/kill or show/hide csses
accordingly.
As the two subsystem masks are still kept identical, this patch

cgroup is implementing support for subsystem dependency which would
require a way to enable a subsystem even when it's not directly
configured through "cgroup.subtree_control".
Previously, cgroup->child_subsys_mask directly reflected
"cgroup.subtree_control" and the enabled subsystems in the child
cgroups. This patch adds cgroup->subtree_control which
"cgroup.subtree_control" operates on. cgroup->child_subsys_mask is
now calculated from cgroup->subtree_control by
cgroup_refresh_child_subsys_mask(), which sets it identical to
cgroup->subtree_control for now.
This will allow using cgroup->child_subsys_mask for all the enabled
subsystems including the implicit ones and ->subtree_control for
tracking the explicitly requested ones. This patch keeps the two
masks identical and doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

We've converted cgroup to kernfs so cgroup won't be intertwined with
vfs objects and locking, but there are dark areas.
Run two instances of this script concurrently:
for ((; ;))
{
mount -t cgroup -o cpuacct xxx /cgroup
umount /cgroup
}
After a while, I saw two mount processes were stuck at retrying, because
they were waiting for a subsystem to become free, but the root associated
with this subsystem never got freed.
This can happen, if thread A is in the process of killing superblock but
hasn't called percpu_ref_kill(), and at this time thread B is mounting
the same cgroup root and finds the root in the root list and performs
percpu_ref_try_get().
To fix this, we try to increase both the refcnt of the superblock and the
percpu refcnt of cgroup root.
v2:
- we should try to get both the superblock refcnt and cgroup_root refcnt,
because cgroup_root may have no superblock assosiated with it.

Currently, a percpu_ref undoes percpu_ref_init() automatically by
freeing the allocated percpu area when the percpu_ref is killed.
While seemingly convenient, this has the following niggles.
* It's impossible to re-init a released reference counter without
going through re-allocation.
* In the similar vein, it's impossible to initialize a percpu_ref
count with static percpu variables.
* We need and have an explicit destructor anyway for failure paths -
percpu_ref_cancel_init().
This patch removes the automatic percpu counter freeing in
percpu_ref_kill_rcu() and repurposes percpu_ref_cancel_init() into a
generic destructor now named percpu_ref_exit(). percpu_ref_destroy()
is considered but it gets confusing with percpu_ref_kill() while
"exit" clearly indicates that it's the counterpart of
percpu_ref_init().
All percpu_ref_cancel_init() users are updated to invoke
percpu_ref_exit() instead and explicit percpu_ref_exit() calls are
added to the destruction path of all percpu_ref users.

Currently, css_next_child() is implemented as finding the next child
cgroup which has the css enabled, which used to be the only way to do
it as only cgroups participated in sibling lists and thus could be
iteratd. This works as long as what's required during iteration is
not missing online csses; however, it turns out that there are use
cases where offlined but not yet released csses need to be iterated.
This is difficult to implement through cgroup iteration the unified
hierarchy as there may be multiple dying csses for the same subsystem
associated with single cgroup.
After the recent changes, the cgroup self and regular csses behave
identically in how they're linked and unlinked from the sibling lists
including assertion of CSS_RELEASED and css_next_child() can simply
switch to iterating csses directly. This both simplifies the logic
and ensures that all visible non-released csses are included in the
iteration whether there are multiple dying csses for a subsystem or
not.
As all other iterators depend on css_next_child() for sibling
iteration, this changes behaviors of all css iterators. Add and
update explanations on the css states which are included in traversal
to all iterators.
As css iteration could always contain offlined csses, this shouldn't
break any of the current users and new usages which need iteration of
all on and offline csses can make use of the new semantics.

css iterations allow the caller to drop RCU read lock. As long as the
caller keeps the current position accessible, it can simply re-grab
RCU read lock later and continue iteration. This is achieved by using
CGRP_DEAD to detect whether the current positions next pointer is safe
to dereference and if not re-iterate from the beginning to the next
position using ->serial_nr.
CGRP_DEAD is used as the marker to invalidate the next pointer and the
only requirement is that the marker is set before the next sibling
starts its RCU grace period. Because CGRP_DEAD is set at the end of
cgroup_destroy_locked() but the cgroup is unlinked when the reference
count reaches zero, we currently have a rather large window where this
fallback re-iteration logic can be triggered.
This patch introduces CSS_RELEASED which is set when a css is unlinked
from its sibling list. This still keeps the re-iteration logic
working while drastically reducing the window of its activation.
While at it, rewrite the comment in css_next_child() to reflect the
new flag and better explain the synchronization.
This will also enable iterating csses directly instead of through
cgroups.

9395a45004 ("cgroup: enable refcnting for root csses") enabled
reference counting for root csses (cgroup_subsys_states) so that
cgroup's self csses can be used to manage the lifetime of the
containing cgroups.
Unfortunately, this change was incorrect. During early init,
cgrp_dfl_root self css refcnt is used. percpu_ref can't initialized
during early init and its initialization is deferred till
cgroup_init() time. This means that cpu was using percpu_ref which
wasn't properly initialized. Due to the way percpu variables are laid
out on x86, this didn't blow up immediately on x86 but ended up
incrementing and decrementing the percpu variable at offset zero,
whatever it may be; however, on other archs, this caused fault and
early boot failure.
As cgroup self csses for root cgroups of non-dfl hierarchies need
working refcounting, we can't revert 9395a45004. This patch adds
CSS_NO_REF which explicitly inhibits reference counting on the css and
sets it on all normal (non-self) csses and cgroup_dfl_root self css.

Fixes: 9395a45004 ("cgroup: enable refcnting for root csses")
Currently cgroup implements refcnting separately using atomic_t
cgroup->refcnt. The destruction paths of cgroup and css are rather
complex and bear a lot of similiarities including the use of RCU and
bouncing to a work item.
This patch makes cgroup use the refcnt of self css for refcnting
instead of using its own. This makes cgroup refcnting use css's
percpu refcnt and share the destruction mechanism.
* css_release_work_fn() and css_free_work_fn() are updated to handle
both csses and cgroups. This is a bit messy but should do until we
can make cgroup->self a full css, which currently can't be done
thanks to multiple hierarchies.
* cgroup_destroy_locked() now performs
percpu_ref_kill(&cgrp->self.refcnt) instead of cgroup_put(cgrp).
* Negative refcnt sanity check in cgroup_get() is no longer necessary
as percpu_ref already handles it.
* Similarly, as a cgroup which hasn't been killed will never be
released regardless of its refcnt value and percpu_ref has sanity
check on kill, cgroup_is_dead() sanity check in cgroup_put() is no
longer necessary.
* As whether a refcnt reached zero or not can only be decided after
the reference count is killed, cgroup_root->cgrp's refcnting can no
longer be used to decide whether to kill the root or not. Let's
make cgroup_kill_sb() explicitly initiate destruction if the root
doesn't have any children. This makes sense anyway as unmounted
cgroup hierarchy without any children should be destroyed.
While this is a bit messy, this will allow pushing more bookkeeping
towards cgroup->self and thus handling cgroups and csses in more
uniform way. In the very long term, it should be possible to
introduce a base subsystem and convert the self css to a proper one
making things whole lot simpler and unified.

it doesn't break css_next_child() although there now is a larger
window in which a dead cgroup is visible during css iteration. As css
iteration always could have included offline csses, this doesn't
affect correctness; however, it does make css_next_child() fall back
to reiterting mode more often. This also makes cgroup_put() directly
take cgroup_mutex, which limits where it can be called from. These

Currently, check_for_release() on the parent of a destroyed cgroup is
invoked from cgroup_destroy_css_killed(). This is because this is
where the destroyed cgroup can be removed from the parent's children
list. check_for_release() tests the emptiness of the list directly,
so invoking it before removing the cgroup from the list makes it think
that the parent still has children even when it no longer does.
This patch updates check_for_release() to use
cgroup_has_live_children() instead of directly testing ->children
emptiness and moves check_for_release(parent) earlier to the end of
cgroup_destroy_locked(). As cgroup_has_live_children() ignores
cgroups marked DEAD, check_for_release() functions correctly as long
as it's called after asserting DEAD.

cgroup_tree_mutex was introduced to work around the circular
dependency between cgroup_mutex and kernfs active protection - some
kernfs file and directory operations needed cgroup_mutex putting
cgroup_mutex under active protection but cgroup also needs to be able
to access cgroup hierarchies and cftypes to determine which
kernfs_nodes need to be removed. cgroup_tree_mutex nested above both
cgroup_mutex and kernfs active protection and used to protect the
hierarchy and cftypes. While this worked, it added a lot of double
lockings and was generally cumbersome.
kernfs provides a mechanism to opt out of active protection and cgroup
was already using it for removal and subtree_control. There's no
reason to mix both methods of avoiding circular locking dependency and
the preceding cgroup_kn_lock_live() changes applied it to all relevant
cgroup kernfs operations making it unnecessary to nest cgroup_mutex
under kernfs active protection. The previous patch reversed the
original lock ordering and put cgroup_mutex above kernfs active
protection.

Reorganize cgroup_create() so that all paths share unlock out path.
* All err_* labels are renamed to out_* as they're now shared by both
success and failure paths.
* @err renamed to @ret for the similar reason as above and so that
it's more consistent with other functions.
* cgroup memory allocation moved after locking so that freeing failed
cgroup happens before unlocking. While this moves more code inside
critical section, memory allocations inside cgroup locking are
already pretty common and this is unlikely to make any noticeable
difference.
* While at it, replace a stray @parent->root dereference with @root.
This reorganization will help simplifying locking.

Now that cgroup_subtree_control_write() has access to the associated
kernfs_open_file and thus the kernfs_node, there's no need to cache it
in cgroup->control_kn on creation. Remove cgroup->control_kn and use
@of->kn directly.

cgroup_tasks_write() and cgroup_procs_write() are currently using
cftype->write_u64(). This patch converts them to use cftype->write()
instead. This allows access to the associated kernfs_open_file which
will be necessary to implement the planned kernfs active protection
manipulation for these files.
This shifts buffer parsing to attach_task_by_pid() and makes it return
@nbytes on success. Let's rename it to __cgroup_procs_write() to
clearly indicate that this is a write handler implementation.
This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.

cftype->trigger() is pointless. It's trivial to ignore the input
buffer from a regular ->write() operation. Convert all ->trigger()
users to ->write() and remove ->trigger().

Convert all cftype->write_string() users to the new cftype->write()
which maps directly to kernfs write operation and has full access to
kernfs and cgroup contexts. The conversions are mostly mechanical.
* @css and @cft are accessed using of_css() and of_cft() accessors
respectively instead of being specified as arguments.
* Should return @nbytes on success instead of 0.
* @buf is not trimmed automatically. Trim if necessary. Note that
blkcg and netprio don't need this as the parsers already handle
whitespaces.
cftype->write_string() has no user left after the conversions and
removed.
While at it, remove unnecessary local variable @p in
cgroup_subtree_control_write() and stale comment about
CGROUP_LOCAL_BUFFER_SIZE in cgroup_freezer.c.
This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.
v2: netprio was missing from conversion. Converted.

During the recent conversion to kernfs, cftype's seq_file operations
are updated so that they are directly mapped to kernfs operations and
thus can fully access the associated kernfs and cgroup contexts;
however, write path hasn't seen similar updates and none of the
existing write operations has access to, for example, the associated
kernfs_open_file.
Let's introduce a new operation cftype->write() which maps directly to
the kernfs write operation and has access to all the arguments and
contexts. This will replace ->write_string() and ->trigger() and ease
manipulation of kernfs active protection from cgroup file operations.
Two accessors - of_cft() and of_css() - are introduced to enable
accessing the associated cgroup context from cftype->write() which
only takes kernfs_open_file for the context information. The
accessors for seq_file operations - seq_cft() and seq_css() - are
rewritten to wrap the of_ accessors.

Unlike the more usual refcnting, what css_tryget() provides is the
distinction between online and offline csses instead of protection
against upping a refcnt which already reached zero. cgroup is
planning to provide actual tryget which fails if the refcnt already
reached zero. Let's rename the existing trygets so that they clearly
indicate that they're onliness.
I thought about keeping the existing names as-are and introducing new
names for the planned actual tryget; however, given that each
controller participates in the synchronization of the online state, it
seems worthwhile to make it explicit that these functions are about
on/offline state.
Rename css_tryget() to css_tryget_online() and css_tryget_from_dir()
to css_tryget_online_from_dir(). This is pure rename.
v2: cgroup_freezer grew new usages of css_tryget(). Update
accordingly.
