Jun'ichi Nomura 65635cbc37 blkcg: Fix use-after-free of q->root_blkg and q->root_rl.blkg
blk_put_rl() does not call blkg_put() for q->root_rl because we
don't take request list reference on q->root_blkg.
However, if root_blkg is once attached then detached (freed),
blk_put_rl() is confused by the bogus pointer in q->root_blkg.

For example, with !CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING &&
CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED,
switching IO scheduler from cfq to deadline will cause system stall
after the following warning with 3.6:

Tejun Heo 8c7f6edbda cgroup: mark subsystems with broken hierarchy support and whine if cgroups are nested for them
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.

Tejun Heo a051661ca6 blkcg: implement per-blkg request allocation
Currently, request_queue has one request_list to allocate requests
from regardless of blkcg of the IO being issued.  When the unified
request pool is used up, cfq proportional IO limits become meaningless
- whoever grabs the next request being freed wins the race regardless
of the configured weights.

This can be easily demonstrated by creating a blkio cgroup w/ very low
weight, put a program which can issue a lot of random direct IOs there
and running a sequential IO from a different cgroup.  As soon as the
request pool is used up, the sequential IO bandwidth crashes.

This patch implements per-blkg request_list.  Each blkg has its own
request_list and any IO allocates its request from the matching blkg
making blkcgs completely isolated in terms of request allocation.

* Root blkcg uses the request_list embedded in each request_queue,
  which was renamed to @q->root_rl from @q->rq.  While making blkcg rl
  handling a bit harier, this enables avoiding most overhead for root
  blkcg.

* Queue fullness is properly per request_list but bdi isn't blkcg
  aware yet, so congestion state currently just follows the root
  blkcg.  As writeback isn't aware of blkcg yet, this works okay for
  async congestion but readahead may get the wrong signals.  It's
  better than blkcg completely collapsing with shared request_list but
  needs to be improved with future changes.

* After this change, each block cgroup gets a full request pool making
  resource consumption of each cgroup higher.  This makes allowing
  non-root users to create cgroups less desirable; however, note that
  allowing non-root users to directly manage cgroups is already
  severely broken regardless of this patch - each block cgroup
  consumes kernel memory and skews IO weight (IO weights are not
  hierarchical).

v2: queue-sysfs.txt updated and patch description udpated as suggested
    by Vivek.

v3: blk_get_rl() wasn't checking error return from
    blkg_lookup_create() and may cause oops on lookup failure.  Fix it
    by falling back to root_rl on blkg lookup failures.  This problem
    was spotted by Rakesh Iyer <rni@google.com>.

v4: Updated to accomodate 458f27a982 "block: Avoid missed wakeup in
    request waitqueue".  blk_drain_queue() now wakes up waiters on all
    blkg->rl on the target queue.

Tejun Heo 159749937a blkcg: make root blkcg allocation use %GFP_KERNEL
Currently, blkcg_activate_policy() depends on %GFP_ATOMIC allocation

Tejun Heo a637120e49 blkcg: use radix tree to index blkgs from blkcg
blkg lookup is currently performed by traversing linked list anchored
at blkcg->blkg_list.  This is very unscalable and with blk-throttle
enabled and enough request queues on the system, this can get very
ugly quickly (blk-throttle performs look up on every bio submission).

This patch makes blkcg use radix tree to index blkgs combined with
simple last-looked-up hint.  This is mostly identical to how icqs are
indexed from ioc.

Note that because __blkg_lookup() may be invoked without holding queue
lock, hint is only updated from __blkg_lookup_create().  Due to cfq's
cfqq caching, this makes hint updates overly lazy.  This will be
improved with scheduled blkcg aware request allocation.

Tejun Heo f95a04afa8 blkcg: embed struct blkg_policy_data in policy specific data
Currently blkg_policy_data carries policy specific data as char flex
array instead of being embedded in policy specific data.  This was
forced by oddities around blkg allocation which are all gone now.

This patch makes blkg_policy_data embedded in policy specific data -
throtl_grp and cfq_group so that it's more conventional and consistent
with how io_cq is handled.

* blkcg_policy->pdata_size is renamed to ->pd_size.

* Functions which used to take void *pdata now takes struct
  blkg_policy_data *pd.

* blkg_to_pdata/pdata_to_blkg() updated to blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg().

* Dummy struct blkg_policy_data definition added.  Dummy
  pdata_to_blkg() definition was unused and inconsistent with the
  non-dummy version - correct dummy pd_to_blkg() added.

* throtl and cfq updated accordingly.

* As dummy blkg_to_pd/pd_to_blkg() are provided,
  blkg_to_cfqg/cfqg_to_blkg() don't need to be ifdef'd.  Moved outside
  ifdef block.

Tejun Heo a2b1693bac blkcg: implement per-queue policy activation
All blkcg policies were assumed to be enabled on all request_queues.
Due to various implementation obstacles, during the recent blkcg core
updates, this was temporarily implemented as shooting down all !root
blkgs on elevator switch and policy [de]registration combined with
half-broken in-place root blkg updates.  In addition to being buggy
and racy, this meant losing all blkcg configurations across those
events.

Now that blkcg is cleaned up enough, this patch replaces the temporary
implementation with proper per-queue policy activation.  Each blkcg
policy should call the new blkcg_[de]activate_policy() to enable and
disable the policy on a specific queue.  blkcg_activate_policy()
allocates and installs policy data for the policy for all existing
blkgs.  blkcg_deactivate_policy() does the reverse.  If a policy is
not enabled for a given queue, blkg printing / config functions skip
the respective blkg for the queue.

blkcg_activate_policy() also takes care of root blkg creation, and
cfq_init_queue() and blk_throtl_init() are updated accordingly.

This replaces blkcg_bypass_{start|end}() and update_root_blkg_pd()
unnecessary.  Dropped.

v2: cfq_init_queue() was returning uninitialized @ret on root_group
    alloc failure if !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.  Fixed.

Currently, blkg_lookup() doesn't check @q bypass state.  This patch
updates blk_queue_bypass_start() to do synchronize_rcu() before
returning and updates blkg_lookup() to check blk_queue_bypass() and

This is to guarantee that nobody is accessing policy data while @q is
bypassing, which is necessary to allow replacing blkio_cgroup->pd[] in
place on policy [de]activation.

v2: Added more comments explaining bypass guarantees as suggested by
    Vivek.

As with conf/stats file handling code, there's no reason for stat

This patch moves stat update code to specific policies.  All

stats are collapsed into their cfq_blkiocg_update_*_stats()

Tejun Heo 60c2bc2d5a blkcg: move conf/stat file handling code to policies
blkcg conf/stat handling is convoluted in that details which belong to
specific policy implementations are all out in blkcg core and then
policies hook into core layer to access and manipulate confs and
stats.  This sadly achieves both inflexibility (confs/stats can't be
modified without messing with blkcg core) and complexity (all the
call-ins and call-backs).

The previous patches restructured conf and stat handling code such
that they can be separated out.  This patch relocates the file
handling part.  All conf/stat file handling code which belongs to
BLKIO_POLICY_PROP is moved to cfq-iosched.c and all
BKLIO_POLICY_THROTL code to blk-throtl.c.

The move is verbatim except for blkio_update_group_{weight|bps|iops}()
callbacks which relays conf changes to policies.  The configuration
settings are handled in policies themselves so the relaying isn't
necessary.  Conf setting functions are modified to directly call
per-policy update functions and the relaying mechanism is dropped.

Tejun Heo edcb0722c6 blkcg: introduce blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat
blkcg uses u64_stats_sync to avoid reading wrong u64 statistic values
on 32bit archs and some stat counters have subtypes to distinguish
read/writes and sync/async IOs.  The stat code paths are confusing and
involve a lot of going back and forth between blkcg core and specific
policy implementations, and synchronization and subtype handling are
open coded in blkcg core.

This patch introduces struct blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat which, with
accompanying operations, encapsulate stat updating and accessing with
proper synchronization.

blkg_stat is simple u64 counter with 64bit read-access protection.
blkg_rwstat is the one with rw and [a]sync subcounters and takes @rw
flags to distinguish IO subtypes (%REQ_WRITE and %REQ_SYNC) and
replaces stat_sub_type indexed arrays.

All counters in blkio_group_stats and blkio_group_stats_cpu are
replaced with either blkg_stat or blkg_rwstat along with all users.

This does add one u64_stats_sync per counter and increase stats_sync
operations but they're empty/noops on 64bit archs and blkcg doesn't
have too many counters, especially with DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP off.

While the currently resulting code isn't necessarily simpler at the
moment, this will enable further clean up of blkcg stats code.

- BLKIO_STAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL} renamed to
  BLKG_RWSTAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL}.

- blkg_stat_add() replaces blkio_add_stat() and
  blkio_check_and_dec_stat().  Note that BUG_ON() on underflow in the
  latter function no longer exists.  It's *way* better to have
  underflowed stat counters than oopsing.

- blkio_group_stats->dequeue is now a proper u64 stat counter instead
  of ulong.

- reset_stats() updated to clear each stat counters individually and
  BLKG_STATS_DEBUG_CLEAR_{START|SIZE} are removed.

- Some functions reconstruct rw flags from direction and sync
  booleans.  This will be removed by future patches.

Tejun Heo 997a026c80 blkcg: simplify stat reset
blkiocg_reset_stats() implements stat reset for blkio.reset_stats
cgroupfs file.  This feature is very unconventional and something
which shouldn't have been merged.  It's only useful when there's only
one user or tool looking at the stats.  As soon as multiple users
and/or tools are involved, it becomes useless as resetting disrupts
other usages.  There are very good reasons why all other stats expect
readers to read values at the start and end of a period and subtract
to determine delta over the period.

The implementation is rather complex - some fields shouldn't be
cleared and it saves some fields, resets whole and restores for some
reason.  Reset of percpu stats is also racy.  The comment points to
64bit store atomicity for the reason but even without that stores for
zero can simply race with other CPUs doing RMW and get clobbered.

Simplify reset by

* Clear selectively instead of resetting and restoring.

* Grouping debug stat fields to be reset and using memset() over them.

* Not caring about stats_lock.

* Using memset() to reset percpu stats.

Vivek Goyal 1cd9e039fc blkcg: alloc per cpu stats from worker thread in a delayed manner
Current per cpu stat allocation assumes GFP_KERNEL allocation flag. But in
IO path there are times when we want GFP_NOIO semantics. As there is no
way to pass the allocation flags to alloc_percpu(), this patch delays the
allocation of stats using a worker thread.

v2-> tejun suggested following changes. Changed the patch accordingly.
	- move alloc_node location in structure
	- reduce the size of names of some of the fields
	- Reduce the scope of locking of alloc_list_lock
	- Simplified stat_alloc_fn() by allocating stats for all
	  policies in one go and then assigning these to a group.

v3 -> Andrew suggested to put some comments in the code. Also raised
      concerns about trying to allocate infinitely in case of allocation
      failure. I have changed the logic to sleep for 10ms before retrying.
      That should take care of non-preemptible UP kernels.

v4 -> Tejun had more suggestions.
	- drop list_for_each_entry_all()
	- instead of msleep() use queue_delayed_work()
	- Some cleanups realted to more compact coding.

v5-> tejun suggested more cleanups leading to more compact code.

tj: - Relocated pcpu_stats into blkio_stat_alloc_fn().
    - Minor comment update.
    - This also fixes suspicious RCU usage warning caused by invoking
      cgroup_path() from blkg_alloc() without holding RCU read lock.
      Now that blkg_alloc() doesn't require sleepable context, RCU
      read lock from blkg_lookup_create() is maintained throughout
      blkg_alloc().

Tejun Heo 9f13ef678e blkcg: use double locking instead of RCU for blkg synchronization
blkgs are chained from both blkcgs and request_queues and thus
subjected to two locks - blkcg->lock and q->queue_lock.  As both blkcg
and q can go away anytime, locking during removal is tricky.  It's
currently solved by wrapping removal inside RCU, which makes the
synchronization complex.  There are three locks to worry about - the
outer RCU, q lock and blkcg lock, and it leads to nasty subtle
complications like conditional synchronize_rcu() on queue exit paths.

For all other paths, blkcg lock is naturally nested inside q lock and
the only exception is blkcg removal path, which is a very cold path
and can be implemented as clumsy but conceptually-simple reverse
double lock dancing.

This patch updates blkg removal path such that blkgs are removed while
holding both q and blkcg locks, which is trivial for request queue
exit path - blkg_destroy_all().  The blkcg removal path,
blkiocg_pre_destroy(), implements reverse double lock dancing
essentially identical to ioc_release_fn().

This simplifies blkg locking - no half-dead blkgs to worry about.  Now
unnecessary RCU annotations will be removed by the next patch.

Tejun Heo e8989fae38 blkcg: unify blkg's for blkcg policies
Currently, blkg is per cgroup-queue-policy combination.  This is
unnatural and leads to various convolutions in partially used
duplicate fields in blkg, config / stat access, and general management
of blkgs.

This patch make blkg's per cgroup-queue and let them serve all
policies.  blkgs are now created and destroyed by blkcg core proper.
This will allow further consolidation of common management logic into
blkcg core and API with better defined semantics and layering.

As a transitional step to untangle blkg management, elvswitch and
policy [de]registration, all blkgs except the root blkg are being shot
down during elvswitch and bypass.  This patch adds blkg_root_update()
to update root blkg in place on policy change.  This is hacky and racy
but should be good enough as interim step until we get locking
simplified and switch over to proper in-place update for all blkgs.

-v2: Root blkgs need to be updated on elvswitch too and blkg_alloc()
     comment wasn't updated according to the function change.  Fixed.
     Both pointed out by Vivek.

-v3: v2 updated blkg_destroy_all() to invoke update_root_blkg_pd() for
     all policies.  This freed root pd during elvswitch before the
     last queue finished exiting and led to oops.  Directly invoke
     update_root_blkg_pd() only on BLKIO_POLICY_PROP from
     cfq_exit_queue().  This also is closer to what will be done with
     proper in-place blkg update.  Reported by Vivek.

group.  The updated blkg_destroy_all() is now used to both clear queue
for bypassing and elv switching, and release all blkgs on q exit.

This patch introduces a race window where policy [de]registration may
race against queue blkg clearing.  This can only be a problem on cfq
unload and shouldn't be a real problem in practice (and we have many
other places where this race already exists).  Future patches will
remove these unlikely races.

Tejun Heo 4eef304998 blkcg: move per-queue blkg list heads and counters to queue and blkg
Currently, specific policy implementations are responsible for
maintaining list and number of blkgs.  This duplicates code
unnecessarily, and hinders factoring common code and providing blkcg
API with better defined semantics.

After this patch, request_queue hosts list heads and counters and blkg
has list nodes for both policies.  This patch only relocates the
necessary fields and the next patch will actually move management code
into blkcg core.

Note that request_queue->blkg_list[] and ->nr_blkgs[] are hardcoded to
have 2 elements.  This is to avoid include dependency and will be
removed by the next patch.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.

Tejun Heo 0381411e4b blkcg: let blkcg core handle policy private data allocation
Currently, blkg's are embedded in private data blkcg policy private
data structure and thus allocated and freed by policies.  This leads
to duplicate codes in policies, hinders implementing common part in
blkcg core with strong semantics, and forces duplicate blkg's for the
same cgroup-q association.

This patch introduces struct blkg_policy_data which is a separate data
structure chained from blkg.  Policies specifies the amount of private
data it needs in its blkio_policy_type->pdata_size and blkcg core
takes care of allocating them along with blkg which can be accessed
using blkg_to_pdata().  blkg can be determined from pdata using
pdata_to_blkg().  blkio_alloc_group_fn() method is accordingly updated
to blkio_init_group_fn().

For consistency, tg_of_blkg() and cfqg_of_blkg() are replaced with
blkg_to_tg() and blkg_to_cfqg() respectively, and functions to map in
the reverse direction are added.

Except that policy specific data now lives in a separate data
structure from blkg, this patch doesn't introduce any functional
difference.

Tejun Heo 7a4dd281ec blkcg: kill the mind-bending blkg->dev
blkg->dev is dev_t recording the device number of the block device for
the associated request_queue.  It is used to identify the associated
block device when printing out configuration or stats.

This is redundant to begin with.  A blkg is an association between a
cgroup and a request_queue and it of course is possible to reach
request_queue from blkg and synchronization conventions are in place
for safe q dereferencing, so this shouldn't be necessary from the
beginning.  Furthermore, it's initialized by sscanf()ing the device
name of backing_dev_info.  The mind boggles.

Anyways, if blkg is visible under rcu lock, we *know* that the
associated request_queue hasn't gone away yet and its bdi is
registered and alive - blkg can't be created for request_queue which
hasn't been fully initialized and it can't go away before blkg is
removed.

Let stat and conf read functions get device name from
blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev and pass it down to printing functions
and remove blkg->dev.

Tejun Heo e56da7e287 blkcg: don't allow or retain configuration of missing devices
blkcg is very peculiar in that it allows setting and remembering
configurations for non-existent devices by maintaining separate data
structures for configuration.

This behavior is completely out of the usual norms and outright
confusing; furthermore, it uses dev_t number to match the
configuration to devices, which is unpredictable to begin with and
becomes completely unuseable if EXT_DEVT is fully used.

It is wholely unnecessary - we already have fully functional userland
mechanism to program devices being hotplugged which has full access to
device identification, connection topology and filesystem information.

Add a new struct blkio_group_conf which contains all blkcg
configurations to blkio_group and let blkio_group, which can be
created iff the associated device exists and is removed when the
associated device goes away, carry all configurations.

Note that, after this patch, all newly created blkg's will always have
the default configuration (unlimited for throttling and blkcg's weight
for propio).

This patch makes blkio_policy_node meaningless but doesn't remove it.
The next patch will.

Tejun Heo cd1604fab4 blkcg: factor out blkio_group creation
Currently both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched implement their own
blkio_group creation code in throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg().  This
patch factors out the common code into blkg_lookup_create(), which
returns ERR_PTR value so that transitional failures due to queue
bypass can be distinguished from other failures.

* New plkio_policy_ops methods blkio_alloc_group_fn() and
  blkio_link_group_fn added.  Both are transitional and will be
  removed once the blkg management code is fully moved into
  blk-cgroup.c.

* blkio_alloc_group_fn() allocates policy-specific blkg which is
  usually a larger data structure with blkg as the first entry and
  intiailizes it.  Note that initialization of blkg proper, including
  percpu stats, is responsibility of blk-cgroup proper.

  Note that default config (weight, bps...) initialization is done
  from this method; otherwise, we end up violating locking order
  between blkcg and q locks via blkcg_get_CONF() functions.

* blkio_link_group_fn() is called under queue_lock and responsible for
  linking the blkg to the queue.  blkcg side is handled by blk-cgroup
  proper.

* The common blkg creation function is named blkg_lookup_create() and
  blkiocg_lookup_group() is renamed to blkg_lookup() for consistency.
  Also, throtl / cfq related functions are similarly [re]named for
  consistency.

This simplifies blkcg policy implementations and enables further
cleanup.

-v2: Vivek noticed that blkg_lookup_create() incorrectly tested
     blk_queue_dead() instead of blk_queue_bypass() leading a user of
     the function ending up creating a new blkg on bypassing queue.
     This is a bug introduced while relocating bypass patches before

Tejun Heo 72e06c2551 blkcg: shoot down blkio_groups on elevator switch
Elevator switch may involve changes to blkcg policies.  Implement
shoot down of blkio_groups.

Combined with the previous bypass updates, the end goal is updating
blkcg core such that it can ensure that blkcg's being affected become
quiescent and don't have any per-blkg data hanging around before
commencing any policy updates.  Until queues are made aware of the
policies that applies to them, as an interim step, all per-policy blkg
data will be shot down.

* blk-throtl doesn't need this change as it can't be disabled for a
  live queue; however, update it anyway as the scheduled blkg
  unification requires this behavior change.  This means that
  blk-throtl configuration will be unnecessarily lost over elevator
  switch.  This oddity will be removed after blkcg learns to associate
  individual policies with request_queues.

* blk-throtl dosen't shoot down root_tg.  This is to ease transition.
  Unified blkg will always have persistent root group and not shooting
  down root_tg for now eases transition to that point by avoiding
  having to update td->root_tg and is safe as blk-throtl can never be
  disabled

-v2: Vivek pointed out that group list is not guaranteed to be empty
     on return from clear function if it raced cgroup removal and
     lost.  Fix it by waiting a bit and retrying.  This kludge will
     soon be removed once locking is updated such that blkg is never
     in limbo state between blkcg and request_queue locks.

     blk-throtl no longer shoots down root_tg to avoid breaking
     td->root_tg.

     Also, Nest queue_lock inside blkio_list_lock not the other way
     around to avoid introduce possible deadlock via blkcg lock.

-v3: blkcg_clear_queue() repositioned and renamed to
     blkg_destroy_all() to increase consistency with later changes.

Tejun Heo b2efa05265 block, cfq: unlink cfq_io_context's immediately
cic is association between io_context and request_queue.  A cic is
linked from both ioc and q and should be destroyed when either one
goes away.  As ioc and q both have their own locks, locking becomes a
bit complex - both orders work for removal from one but not from the
other.

Currently, cfq tries to circumvent this locking order issue with RCU.
ioc->lock nests inside queue_lock but the radix tree and cic's are
also protected by RCU allowing either side to walk their lists without
grabbing lock.

This rather unconventional use of RCU quickly devolves into extremely
fragile convolution.  e.g. The following is from cfqd going away too
soon after ioc and q exits raced.

The only real hot path here is cic lookup during request
initialization and avoiding extra locking requires very confined use
of RCU.  This patch makes cic removal from both ioc and request_queue
perform double-locking and unlink immediately.

* From q side, the change is almost trivial as ioc->lock nests inside
  queue_lock.  It just needs to grab each ioc->lock as it walks
  cic_list and unlink it.

* From ioc side, it's a bit more difficult because of inversed lock
  order.  ioc needs its lock to walk its cic_list but can't grab the
  matching queue_lock and needs to perform unlock-relock dancing.

  Unlinking is now wholly done from put_io_context() and fast path is
  optimized by using the queue_lock the caller already holds, which is
  by far the most common case.  If the ioc accessed multiple devices,
  it tries with trylock.  In unlikely cases of fast path failure, it
  falls back to full double-locking dance from workqueue.

Double-locking isn't the prettiest thing in the world but it's *far*
simpler and more understandable than RCU trick without adding any
meaningful overhead.

This still leaves a lot of now unnecessary RCU logics.  Future patches
will trim them.

-v2: Vivek pointed out that cic->q was being dereferenced after
     cic->release() was called.  Updated to use local variable @this_q

This also fixes the following two race conditions between setting and

Ignoring copy_io() during fork, io_context can be allocated from two
places - current_io_context() and set_task_ioprio().  The former is
always called from local task while the latter can be called from
different task.  The synchornization between them are peculiar and
dubious.

  is not a dependent load of the former.  ie, if ioc itself were being
  dereferenced "ioc->xxx", it would mean something (not sure what tho)
  but as the code currently stands, the dependent read barrier is
  noop.

As only one of the the two test-assignment sequences is task_lock()
protected, the task_lock() can't do much about race between the two.
Nothing prevents current_io_context() and set_task_ioprio() allocating
its own ioc for the same task and overwriting the other's.

Also, set_task_ioprio() can race with exiting task and create a new
ioc after exit_io_context() is finished.

ioc get/put doesn't have any reason to be complex.  The only hot path
is accessing the existing ioc of %current, which is simple to achieve
given that ->io_context is never destroyed as long as the task is
alive.  All other paths can happily go through task_lock() like all
other task sub structures without impacting anything.

This patch updates ioc get/put so that it becomes more conventional.

* alloc_io_context() is replaced with get_task_io_context().  This is
  the only interface which can acquire access to ioc of another task.
  On return, the caller has an explicit reference to the object which
  should be put using put_io_context() afterwards.

* The functionality of current_io_context() remains the same but when
  creating a new ioc, it shares the code path with
  get_task_io_context() and always goes through task_lock().

* get_io_context() now means incrementing ref on an ioc which the
  caller already has access to (be that an explicit refcnt or implicit
  %current one).

* PF_EXITING inhibits creation of new io_context and once
  exit_io_context() is finished, it's guaranteed that both ioc
  acquisition functions return %NULL.

* All users are updated.  Most are trivial but
  smp_read_barrier_depends() removal from cfq_get_io_context() needs a
  bit of explanation.  I suppose the original intention was to ensure
  ioc->ioprio is visible when set_task_ioprio() allocates new
  io_context and installs it; however, this wouldn't have worked
  because set_task_ioprio() doesn't have wmb between init and install.
  There are other problems with this which will be fixed in another
  patch.

* While at it, use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of -1 for wildcard node
  specification.

Tejun Heo bb9d97b6df cgroup: don't use subsys->can_attach_task() or ->attach_task()
Now that subsys->can_attach() and attach() take @tset instead of
@task, they can handle per-task operations.  Convert
->can_attach_task() and ->attach_task() users to use ->can_attach()
and attach() instead.  Most converions are straight-forward.
Noteworthy changes are,

* In cgroup_freezer, remove unnecessary NULL assignments to unused
  methods.  It's useless and very prone to get out of sync, which
  already happened.

* In cpuset, PF_THREAD_BOUND test is checked for each task.  This
  doesn't make any practical difference but is conceptually cleaner.

Wanlong Gao d11bb4462c blk-cgroup: be able to remove the record of unplugged device
The bug is we're not able to remove the device from blkio cgroup's
per-device control files if it gets unplugged.

To reproduce the bug:

  # mount -t cgroup -o blkio xxx /cgroup
  # cd /cgroup
  # echo "8:0 1000" > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
  # unplug the device
  # cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
  8:0	1000
  # echo "8:0 0" > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
  -bash: echo: write error: No such device

After patching, the device removal will succeed.

Ben Blum f780bdb7c1 cgroups: add per-thread subsystem callbacks
Add cgroup subsystem callbacks for per-thread attachment in atomic contexts

Add can_attach_task(), pre_attach(), and attach_task() as new callbacks
for cgroups's subsystem interface.  Unlike can_attach and attach, these
are for per-thread operations, to be called potentially many times when
attaching an entire threadgroup.

Also, the old "bool threadgroup" interface is removed, as replaced by
this.  All subsystems are modified for the new interface - of note is
cpuset, which requires from/to nodemasks for attach to be globally scoped
(though per-cpuset would work too) to persist from its pre_attach to
attach_task and attach.

This is a pre-patch for cgroup-procs-writable.patch.

Vivek Goyal f0bdc8cdd9 blk-cgroup: Make cgroup stat reset path blkg->lock free for dispatch stats
Now dispatch stats update is lock free. But reset of these stats still
takes blkg->stats_lock and is dependent on that. As stats are per cpu,
we should be able to just reset the stats on each cpu without any locks.
(Atleast for 64bit arch).

On 32bit arch there is a small race where 64bit updates are not atomic.
The result of this race can be that in the presence of other writers,
one might not get 0 value after reset of a stat and might see something
intermediate

One can write more complicated code to cover this race like sending IPI
to other cpus to reset stats and for offline cpus, reset these directly.

Right not I am not taking that path because reset_update is more of a
debug feature and it can happen only on 32bit arch and possibility of
it happening is small. Will fix it if it becomes a real problem. For
the time being going for code simplicity.

Vivek Goyal 70087dc38c blk-throttle: Use task_subsys_state() to determine a task's blkio_cgroup
Currentlly we first map the task to cgroup and then cgroup to
blkio_cgroup. There is a more direct way to get to blkio_cgroup
from task using task_subsys_state(). Use that.

The real reason for the fix is that it also avoids a race in generic
cgroup code. During remount/umount rebind_subsystems() is called and
it can do following with and rcu protection.

cgrp->subsys[i] = NULL;

That means if somebody got hold of cgroup under rcu and then it tried
to do cgroup->subsys[] to get to blkio_cgroup, it would get NULL which
is wrong. I was running into this race condition with ltp running on a
upstream derived kernel and that lead to crash.

So ideally we should also fix cgroup generic code to wait for rcu
grace period before setting pointer to NULL. Li Zefan is not very keen
on introducing synchronize_wait() as he thinks it will slow
down moun/remount/umount operations.

So for the time being atleast fix the kernel crash by taking a more
direct route to blkio_cgroup.

One tester had reported a crash while running LTP on a derived kernel
and with this fix crash is no more seen while the test has been
running for over 6 days.

Vivek Goyal bdc85df7a8 blk-cgroup: Allow creation of hierarchical cgroups
o Allow hierarchical cgroup creation for blkio controller

o Currently we disallow it as both the io controller policies (throttling
  as well as proportion bandwidth) do not support hierarhical accounting
  and control. But the flip side is that blkio controller can not be used with
  libvirt as libvirt creates a cgroup hierarchy deeper than 1 level.

  <top-level-cgroup-dir>/<controller>/libvirt/qemu/<virtual-machine-groups>

o So this patch will allow creation of cgroup hierarhcy but at the backend
  everything will be treated as flat. So if somebody created a an hierarchy
  like as follows.

			root
			/  \
		     test1 test2
			|
		     test3

  CFQ and throttling will practically treat all groups at same level.

				pivot
			     /  |   \  \
			root  test1 test2  test3

o Once we have actual support for hierarchical accounting and control
  then we can introduce another cgroup tunable file "blkio.use_hierarchy"
  which will be 0 by default but if user wants to enforce hierarhical
  control then it can be set to 1. This way there should not be any
  ABI problems down the line.

o The only not so pretty part is introduction of extra file "use_hierarchy"
  down the line. Kame-san had mentioned that hierarhical accounting is
  expensive in memory controller hence they keep it off by default. I
  suspect same will be the case for IO controller also as for each IO
  completion we shall have to account IO through hierarchy up to the root.
  if yes, then it probably is not a very bad idea to introduce this extra
  file so that it will be used only when somebody needs it and some people
  might enable hierarchy only in part of the hierarchy.

o This is how basically memory controller also uses "use_hierarhcy" and
  they also allowed creation of hierarchies when actual backend support
  was not available.

Vivek Goyal fe0714377e blkio: Recalculate the throttled bio dispatch time upon throttle limit change
o Currently any cgroup throttle limit changes are processed asynchronousy and
  the change does not take affect till a new bio is dispatched from same group.

o It might happen that a user sets a redicuously low limit on throttling.
  Say 1 bytes per second on reads. In such cases simple operations like mount
  a disk can wait for a very long time.

o Once bio is throttled, there is no easy way to come out of that wait even if
  user increases the read limit later.

o This patch fixes it. Now if a user changes the cgroup limits, we recalculate
  the bio dispatch time according to new limits.

o Can't take queueu lock under blkcg_lock, hence after the change I wake
  up the dispatch thread again which recalculates the time. So there are some
  variables being synchronized across two threads without lock and I had to
  make use of barriers. Hoping I have used barriers correctly. Any review of
  memory barrier code especially will help.
