This patchset introduces eventfd-based API for notifications in cgroups
and implements memory notifications on top of it.
It uses statistics in memory controler to track memory usage.

This patch:
Introduce the write-only file "cgroup.event_control" in every cgroup.
To register new notification handler you need:
- create an eventfd;
- open a control file to be monitored. Callbacks register_event() and
unregister_event() must be defined for the control file;
- write "<event_fd> <control_fd> <args>" to cgroup.event_control.
Interpretation of args is defined by control file implementation;
eventfd will be woken up by control file implementation or when the
cgroup is removed.
To unregister notification handler just close eventfd.
If you need notification functionality for a control file you have to
implement callbacks register_event() and unregister_event() in the
struct cftype.

This patch adds a new function cgroup_unload_subsys which is to be used
for removing a loaded subsystem during module deletion. Reference
counting of the subsystems' modules is moved from once (at load time) to
once per attached hierarchy (in parse_cgroupfs_options and
rebind_subsystems) (i.e., 0 or 1).

Add interface between cgroups subsystem management and module loading
This patch implements rudimentary module-loading support for cgroups -
namely, a cgroup_load_subsys (similar to cgroup_init_subsys) for use as a

Several functions that might be wanted by modules have had EXPORT_SYMBOL

This patch series provides the ability for cgroup subsystems to be
compiled as modules both within and outside the kernel tree. This is
mainly useful for classifiers and subsystems that hook into components
that are already modules. cls_cgroup and blkio-cgroup serve as the
example use cases for this feature.
It provides an interface cgroup_load_subsys() and cgroup_unload_subsys()
which modular subsystems can use to register and depart during runtime.
The net_cls classifier subsystem serves as the example for a subsystem
which can be converted into a module using these changes.
Patch #1 sets up the subsys[] array so its contents can be dynamic as
modules appear and (eventually) disappear. Iterations over the array are
modified to handle when subsystems are absent, and the dynamic section of
the array is protected by cgroup_mutex.
Patch #2 implements an interface for modules to load subsystems, called
cgroup_load_subsys, similar to cgroup_init_subsys, and adds a module
pointer in struct cgroup_subsys.
Patch #3 adds a mechanism for unloading modular subsystems, which includes
a more advanced rework of the rudimentary reference counting introduced in
patch 2.
Patch #4 modifies the net_cls subsystem, which already had some module
declarations, to be configurable as a module, which also serves as a
simple proof-of-concept.
Part of implementing patches 2 and 4 involved updating css pointers in
each css_set when the module appears or leaves. In doing this, it was
discovered that css_sets always remain linked to the dummy cgroup,
regardless of whether or not any subsystems are actually bound to it
(i.e., not mounted on an actual hierarchy). The subsystem loading and
unloading code therefore should keep in mind the special cases where the
added subsystem is the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all
css_sets need to be linked back into it) and where the removed subsys was
the only one in the dummy cgroup (and therefore all css_sets should be
unlinked from it) - however, as all css_sets always stay attached to the
dummy cgroup anyway, these cases are ignored. Any fix that addresses this
issue should also make sure these cases are addressed in the subsystem
loading and unloading code.
This patch:
Make subsys[] able to be dynamically populated to support modular
subsystems
This patch reworks the way the subsys[] array is used so that subsystems
can register themselves after boot time, and enables the internals of
cgroups to be able to handle when subsystems are not present or may
appear/disappear.

Current css_get() and css_put() increment/decrement css->refcnt one by

This patch add a new function __css_get(), which takes "count" as a arg
and increment the css->refcnt by "count". And this patch also add a new
arg("count") to __css_put() and change the function to decrement the
css->refcnt by "count".
These coalesce version of __css_get()/__css_put() will be used to improve
performance of memcg's moving charge feature later, where instead of
calling css_get()/css_put() repeatedly, these new functions will be used.
No change is needed for current users of css_get()/css_put().

The LTP cgroup test suite generates a "kernel BUG at kernel/cgroup.c:790!"
here in cgroup_diput():
/*
* if we're getting rid of the cgroup, refcount should ensure
* that there are no pidlists left.
*/
BUG_ON(!list_empty(&cgrp->pidlists));
The cgroup pidlist rework in 2.6.32 generates the BUG_ON, which is caused
when pidlist_array_load() calls cgroup_pidlist_find():
(1) if a matching cgroup_pidlist is found, it down_write's the mutex of the
pre-existing cgroup_pidlist, and increments its use_count.
(2) if no matching cgroup_pidlist is found, then a new one is allocated, it
down_write's its mutex, and the use_count is set to 0.
(3) the matching, or new, cgroup_pidlist gets returned back to pidlist_array_load(),
which increments its use_count -- regardless whether new or pre-existing --
and up_write's the mutex.
So if a matching list is ever encountered by cgroup_pidlist_find() during
the life of a cgroup directory, it results in an inflated use_count value,
preventing it from ever getting released by cgroup_release_pid_array().
Then if the directory is subsequently removed, cgroup_diput() hits the
BUG_ON() when it finds that the directory's cgroup is still populated with
a pidlist.
The patch simply removes the use_count increment when a matching pidlist
is found by cgroup_pidlist_find(), because it gets bumped by the calling
pidlist_array_load() function while still protected by the list's mutex.

Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with

pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.)
Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem
about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader. No subsystem currently
needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were
to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit
would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right
information.

Previously there was the problem in which two processes from different pid
namespaces reading the tasks or procs file could result in one process
seeing results from the other's namespace. Rather than one pidlist for
each file in a cgroup, we now keep a list of pidlists keyed by namespace
and file type (tasks versus procs) in which entries are placed on demand.
Each pidlist has its own lock, and that the pidlists themselves are passed
around in the seq_file's private pointer means we don't have to touch the
cgroup or its master list except when creating and destroying entries.

The following series adds a "cgroup.procs" file to each cgroup that
reports unique tgids rather than pids, and allows all threads in a
threadgroup to be atomically moved to a new cgroup.
The subsystem "attach" interface is modified to support attaching whole
threadgroups at a time, which could introduce potential problems if any
subsystem were to need to access the old cgroup of every thread being
moved. The attach interface may need to be revised if this becomes the
case.
Also added is functionality for read/write locking all CLONE_THREAD
fork()ing within a threadgroup, by means of an rwsem that lives in the
sighand_struct, for per-threadgroup-ness and also for sharing a cacheline
with the sighand's atomic count. This scheme should introduce no extra
overhead in the fork path when there's no contention.
The final patch reveals potential for a race when forking before a
subsystem's attach function is called - one potential solution in case any
subsystem has this problem is to hang on to the group's fork mutex through
the attach() calls, though no subsystem yet demonstrates need for an
extended critical section.

cgroups: fix pid namespace bug
This is in preparation for some clashing cgroups changes that subsume the

The original commit fixed a pid namespace bug which Ben Blum fixed
independently (in the same way, but with different code) as part of a
series of patches. I played around with trying to reconcile Ben's patch
series with Li's patch, but concluded that it was simpler to just revert
Li's, given that Ben's patch series contained essentially the same fix.

This patch removes the restriction that a cgroup hierarchy must have at
least one bound subsystem. The mount option "none" is treated as an
explicit request for no bound subsystems.
A hierarchy with no subsystems can be useful for plain task tracking, and
is also a step towards the support for multiply-bindable subsystems.
As part of this change, the hierarchy id is no longer calculated from the
bitmask of subsystems in the hierarchy (since this is not guaranteed to be
unique) but is allocated via an ida. Reference counts on cgroups from
css_set objects are now taken explicitly one per hierarchy, rather than
one per subsystem.
Example usage:
mount -t cgroup -o none,name=foo cgroup /mnt/cgroup

Currently the cgroups code makes the assumption that the subsystem
pointers in a struct css_set uniquely identify the hierarchy->cgroup
mappings associated with the css_set; and there's no way to directly
identify the associated set of cgroups other than by indirecting through
the appropriate subsystem state pointers.
This patch removes the need for that assumption by adding a back-pointer
from struct cg_cgroup_link object to its associated cgroup; this allows
the set of cgroups to be determined by traversing the cg_links list in
the struct css_set.

("cgroups: convert tasks file to use a seq_file with shared pid array").
We cache a pid array for all threads that are opening the same "tasks"
file, but the pids in the array are always from the namespace of the
last process that opened the file, so all other threads will read pids
from that namespace instead of their own namespaces.
To fix it, we maintain a list of pid arrays, which is keyed by pid_ns.
The list will be of length 1 at most time.

The 'noprefix' option was introduced for backwards-compatibility of
cpuset, but actually it can be used when mounting other subsystems.
This results in possibility of name collision, and now the collision can
really happen, because we have 'stat' file in both memory and cpuacct
subsystem:
# mount -t cgroup -o noprefix,memory,cpuacct xxx /mnt
Cgroup will happily mount the 2 subsystems, but only 'stat' file of memory
subsys can be seen.
We don't want users to use nopreifx, and also want to avoid name
collision, so we change to allow noprefix only if mounting just the cpuset
subsystem.

This patch tries to fix OOM Killer problems caused by hierarchy.
Now, memcg itself has OOM KILL function (in oom_kill.c) and tries to
kill a task in memcg.
But, when hierarchy is used, it's broken and correct task cannot
be killed. For example, in following cgroup
/groupA/ hierarchy=1, limit=1G,
01 nolimit
02 nolimit
All tasks' memory usage under /groupA, /groupA/01, groupA/02 is limited to
groupA's 1Gbytes but OOM Killer just kills tasks in groupA.
This patch provides makes the bad process be selected from all tasks
under hierarchy. BTW, currently, oom_jiffies is updated against groupA
in above case. oom_jiffies of tree should be updated.
To see how oom_jiffies is used, please check mem_cgroup_oom_called()
callers.

Remount can fail in either case:
- wrong mount options is specified, or option 'noprefix' is changed.
- a to-be-added subsys is already mounted/active.
When using remount to change 'release_agent', for the above former failure
case, remount will return errno with release_agent unchanged, but for the
latter case, remount will return EBUSY with relase_agent changed, which is
unexpected I think:
# mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /cgrp1
# mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,release_agent=agent1 yyy /cgrp2
# cat /cgrp2/release_agent
agent1
# mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpuset,noprefix,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2
mount: /cgrp2 not mounted already, or bad option
# cat /cgrp2/release_agent
agent1 <-- ok
# mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpu,cpuset,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2
mount: /cgrp2 is busy
# cat /cgrp2/release_agent
agent2 <-- unexpected!

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.

simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0.
Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup if
it were to _ever_ fail. For instance, get_sb_single() and get_sb_nodev()
should:
up_write(sb->s_unmount);
deactivate_super(sb);
if simple_set_mnt() fails.
Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not
return anything.

I enabled all cgroup subsystems when compiling kernel, and then:
# mount -t cgroup -o net_cls xxx /mnt
# mkdir /mnt/0
This showed up immediately:
BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_SUBCLASSES too low!
turning off the locking correctness validator.
It's caused by the cgroup hierarchy lock:
for (i = 0; i < CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT; i++) {
struct cgroup_subsys *ss = subsys[i];
if (ss->root == root)
mutex_lock_nested(&ss->hierarchy_mutex, i);
}
Now we have 9 cgroup subsystems, and the above 'i' for net_cls is 8, but
MAX_LOCKDEP_SUBCLASSES is 8.
This patch uses different lockdep keys for different subsystems.

root_count was being incremented in cgroup_get_sb() after all error
checking was complete, but decremented in cgroup_kill_sb(), which can be
