      ptrace: simplify ptrace_exit()->ignoring_children() path · 6d69cb87
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      ignoring_children() takes parent->sighand->siglock and checks
      k_sigaction[SIGCHLD] atomically.  But this buys nothing, we can't get the
      "really" wrong result even if we race with sigaction(SIGCHLD).  If we read
      the "stale" sa_handler/sa_flags we can pretend it was changed right after
      the check.
      
      Remove spin_lock(->siglock), and kill "int ign" which caches the result of
      ignoring_children() which becomes rather trivial.
      
      Perhaps it makes sense to export this helper, do_notify_parent() can use
      it too.

      ptrace: kill __ptrace_detach(), fix ->exit_state check · 95c3eb76
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      Move the code from __ptrace_detach() to its single caller and kill this
      helper.
      
      Also, fix the ->exit_state check, we shouldn't wake up EXIT_DEAD tasks.
      Actually, I think task_is_stopped_or_traced() makes more sense, but this
      needs another patch.

      When sending a signal to a descendant namespace, set ->si_pid to 0 since
      the sender does not have a pid in the receiver's namespace.

      signals: protect cinit from blocked fatal signals · b3bfa0cb
      Sukadev Bhattiprolu authored
      Normally SIG_DFL signals to global and container-init are dropped early.
      But if a signal is blocked when it is posted, we cannot drop the signal
      since the receiver may install a handler before unblocking the signal.
      Once this signal is queued however, the receiver container-init has no way
      of knowing if the signal was sent from an ancestor or descendant
      namespace.  This patch ensures that contianer-init drops all SIG_DFL
      signals in get_signal_to_deliver() except SIGKILL/SIGSTOP.
      
      If SIGSTOP/SIGKILL originate from a descendant of container-init they are
      never queued (i.e dropped in sig_ignored() in an earler patch).
      
      If SIGSTOP/SIGKILL originate from parent namespace, the signal is queued
      and container-init processes the signal.
      
      IOW, if get_signal_to_deliver() sees a sig_kernel_only() signal for global
      or container-init, the signal must have been generated internally or must
      have come from an ancestor ns and we process the signal.
      
      Further, the signal_group_exit() check was needed to cover the case of a
      multi-threaded init sending SIGKILL to other threads when doing an exit()
      or exec().  But since the new sig_kernel_only() check covers the SIGKILL,
      the signal_group_exit() check is no longer needed and can be removed.
      
      Finally, now that we have all pieces in place, set SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE for
      container-inits.

      signals: zap_pid_ns_process() should use force_sig() · e4da026f
      Sukadev Bhattiprolu authored
      send_signal() assumes that signals with SEND_SIG_PRIV are generated from
      within the same namespace.  So any nested container-init processes become
      immune to the SIGKILL generated by kill_proc_info() in
      zap_pid_ns_processes().
      
      Use force_sig() in zap_pid_ns_processes() instead - force_sig() clears the
      SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag ensuring the signal is processed by
      container-inits.

      signals: protect cinit from unblocked SIG_DFL signals · 921cf9f6
      Sukadev Bhattiprolu authored
      Drop early any SIG_DFL or SIG_IGN signals to container-init from within
      the same container.  But queue SIGSTOP and SIGKILL to the container-init
      if they are from an ancestor container.
      
      Blocked, fatal signals (i.e when SIG_DFL is to terminate) from within the
      container can still terminate the container-init.  That will be addressed
      in the next patch.
      
      Note:	To be bisect-safe, SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE will be set for container-inits
         	in a follow-on patch. Until then, this patch is just a preparatory
      	step.

      signals: add from_ancestor_ns parameter to send_signal() · 7978b567
      Sukadev Bhattiprolu authored
      send_signal() (or its helper) needs to determine the pid namespace of the
      sender.  But a signal sent via kill_pid_info_as_uid() comes from within
      the kernel and send_signal() does not need to determine the pid namespace
      of the sender.  So define a helper for send_signal() which takes an
      additional parameter, 'from_ancestor_ns' and have kill_pid_info_as_uid()
      use that helper directly.
      
      The 'from_ancestor_ns' parameter will be used in a follow-on patch.

      signals: protect init from unwanted signals more · f008faff
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      (This is a modified version of the patch submitted by Oleg Nesterov
      http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/18/249 and tries to address comments that
      came up in that discussion)
      
      init ignores the SIG_DFL signals but we queue them anyway, including
      SIGKILL.  This is mostly OK, the signal will be dropped silently when
      dequeued, but the pending SIGKILL has 2 bad implications:
      
              - it implies fatal_signal_pending(), so we confuse things
                like wait_for_completion_killable/lock_page_killable.
      
              - for the sub-namespace inits, the pending SIGKILL can
                mask (legacy_queue) the subsequent SIGKILL from the
                parent namespace which must kill cinit reliably.
                (preparation, cinits don't have SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE yet)
      
      The patch can't help when init is ptraced, but ptracing of init is not
      "safe" anyway.

      signals: remove 'handler' parameter to tracehook functions · 43918f2b
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      Container-init must behave like global-init to processes within the
      container and hence it must be immune to unhandled fatal signals from
      within the container (i.e SIG_DFL signals that terminate the process).
      
      But the same container-init must behave like a normal process to processes
      in ancestor namespaces and so if it receives the same fatal signal from a
      process in ancestor namespace, the signal must be processed.
      
      Implementing these semantics requires that send_signal() determine pid
      namespace of the sender but since signals can originate from workqueues/
      interrupt-handlers, determining pid namespace of sender may not always be
      possible or safe.
      
      This patchset implements the design/simplified semantics suggested by
      Oleg Nesterov.  The simplified semantics for container-init are:
      
      	- container-init must never be terminated by a signal from a
      	  descendant process.
      
      	- container-init must never be immune to SIGKILL from an ancestor
      	  namespace (so a process in parent namespace must always be able
      	  to terminate a descendant container).
      
      	- container-init may be immune to unhandled fatal signals (like
      	  SIGUSR1) even if they are from ancestor namespace. SIGKILL/SIGSTOP
      	  are the only reliable signals to a container-init from ancestor
      	  namespace.
      
      This patch:
      
      Based on an earlier patch submitted by Oleg Nesterov and comments from
      Roland McGrath (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/19/258).
      
      The handler parameter is currently unused in the tracehook functions.
      Besides, the tracehook functions are called with siglock held, so the
      functions can check the handler if they later need to.
      
      Removing the parameter simiplifies changes to sig_ignored() in a follow-on
      patch.

      do_wait: fix waiting for the group stop with the dead leader · 90bc8d8b
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      do_wait(WSTOPPED) assumes that p->state must be == TASK_STOPPED, this is
      not true if the leader is already dead.  Check SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED instead
      and use signal->group_exit_code.
      
      Trivial test-case:
      
      	void *tfunc(void *arg)
      	{
      		pause();
      		return NULL;
      	}
      
      	int main(void)
      	{
      		pthread_t thr;
      		pthread_create(&thr, NULL, tfunc, NULL);
      		pthread_exit(NULL);
      		return 0;
      	}
      
      It doesn't react to ^Z (and then to ^C or ^\). The task is stopped, but
      bash can't see this.
      
      The bug is very old, and it was reported multiple times. This patch was sent
      more than a year ago (http://marc.info/?t=119713920000003) but it was ignored.
      
      This change also fixes other oddities (but not all) in this area.  For
      example, before this patch:
      
      	$ sleep 100
      	^Z
      	[1]+  Stopped                 sleep 100
      	$ strace -p `pidof sleep`
      	Process 11442 attached - interrupt to quit
      
      strace hangs in do_wait(), because ->exit_code was already consumed by
      bash.  After this patch, strace happily proceeds:
      
      	--- SIGTSTP (Stopped) @ 0 (0) ---
      	restart_syscall(<... resuming interrupted call ...>
      
      To me, this looks much more "natural" and correct.
      
      Another example.  Let's suppose we have the main thread M and sub-thread
      T, the process is stopped, and its parent did wait(WSTOPPED).  Now we can
      ptrace T but not M.  This looks at least strange to me.
      
      Imho, do_wait() should not confuse the per-thread ptrace stops with the
      per-process job control stops.

      David Rientjes authored
      Kthreads that have the PF_THREAD_BOUND bit set in their flags are bound to a

      This patch prevents such threads from attaching to non-root cpusets.  They do
      not have mempolicies that restrict them to a subset of system nodes and, since
      their cpumask may never change, they cannot use any of the features of
      cpusets.
      
      The tasks will forever be a member of the root cpuset and will be returned
      when listing the tasks attached to that cpuset.

      Allow cpusets to be configured/built on non-SMP systems
      
      Currently it's impossible to build cpusets under UML on x86-64, since
      cpusets depends on SMP and x86-64 UML doesn't support SMP.
      
      There's code in cpusets that doesn't depend on SMP.  This patch surrounds
      the minimum amount of cpusets code with #ifdef CONFIG_SMP in order to
      allow cpusets to build/run on UP systems (for testing purposes under UML).

      memcg: remove redundant message at swapon · 627991a2
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      It's pointed out that swap_cgroup's message at swapon() is nonsense.
      Because
      
        * It can be calculated very easily if all necessary information is
          written in Kconfig.
      
        * It's not necessary to annoying people at every swapon().
      
      In other view, now, memory usage per swp_entry is reduced to 2bytes from
      8bytes(64bit) and I think it's reasonably small.

      cgroups: use css id in swap cgroup for saving memory v5 · a3b2d692
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      Try to use CSS ID for records in swap_cgroup.  By this, on 64bit machine,
      size of swap_cgroup goes down to 2 bytes from 8bytes.
      
      This means, when 2GB of swap is equipped, (assume the page size is 4096bytes)
      
      	From size of swap_cgroup = 2G/4k * 8 = 4Mbytes.
      	To   size of swap_cgroup = 2G/4k * 2 = 1Mbytes.
      
      Reduction is large.  Of course, there are trade-offs.  This CSS ID will
      add overhead to swap-in/swap-out/swap-free.
      
      But in general,
        - swap is a resource which the user tend to avoid use.
        - If swap is never used, swap_cgroup area is not used.
        - Reading traditional manuals, size of swap should be proportional to
          size of memory. Memory size of machine is increasing now.
      
      I think reducing size of swap_cgroup makes sense.
      
      Note:
        - ID->CSS lookup routine has no locks, it's under RCU-Read-Side.
        - memcg can be obsolete at rmdir() but not freed while refcnt from
          swap_cgroup is available.
      
      Changelog v4->v5:
       - reworked on to memcg-charge-swapcache-to-proper-memcg.patch
      Changlog ->v4:
       - fixed not configured case.
       - deleted unnecessary comments.
       - fixed NULL pointer bug.
       - fixed message in dmesg.

      memcg: charge swapcache to proper memcg · 3c776e64
      Daisuke Nishimura authored
      memcg_test.txt says at 4.1:
      
      	This swap-in is one of the most complicated work. In do_swap_page(),
      	following events occur when pte is unchanged.
      
      	(1) the page (SwapCache) is looked up.
      	(2) lock_page()
      	(3) try_charge_swapin()
      	(4) reuse_swap_page() (may call delete_swap_cache())
      	(5) commit_charge_swapin()
      	(6) swap_free().
      
      	Considering following situation for example.
      
      	(A) The page has not been charged before (2) and reuse_swap_page()
      	    doesn't call delete_from_swap_cache().
      	(B) The page has not been charged before (2) and reuse_swap_page()

               Event
             Before (2)     0/ 1     0/ 1      1/ 1    1/ 1

                (3)        +1/+1    +1/+1     +1/+1   +1/+1
                (4)          -       0/ 0       -     -1/ 0
                (5)         0/-1     0/ 0     -1/-1    0/ 0
                (6)          -       0/-1       -      0/-1
                ===========================================
             Result         1/ 1     1/ 1      1/ 1    1/ 1
      
             In any cases, charges to this page should be 1/ 1.
      
      In case of (D), mem_cgroup_try_get_from_swapcache() returns NULL
      (because lookup_swap_cgroup() returns NULL), so "+1/+1" at (3) means
      charges to the memcg("foo") to which the "current" belongs.
      OTOH, "-1/0" at (4) and "0/-1" at (6) means uncharges from the memcg("baa")
      to which the page has been charged.
      
      So, if the "foo" and "baa" is different(for example because of task move),
      this charge will be moved from "baa" to "foo".
      
      I think this is an unexpected behavior.
      
      This patch fixes this by modifying mem_cgroup_try_get_from_swapcache()
      to return the memcg to which the swapcache has been charged if PCG_USED bit
      is set.
      IIUC, checking PCG_USED bit of swapcache is safe under page lock.

      memcg: fix OOM killer under memcg · 0b7f569e
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      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.

      memcg: fix shrinking memory to return -EBUSY by fixing retry algorithm · 81d39c20
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      As pointed out, shrinking memcg's limit should return -EBUSY after
      reasonable retries.  This patch tries to fix the current behavior of
      shrink_usage.
      
      Before looking into "shrink should return -EBUSY" problem, we should fix
      hierarchical reclaim code.  It compares current usage and current limit,
      but it only makes sense when the kernel reclaims memory because hit
      limits.  This is also a problem.
      
      What this patch does are.
      
        1. add new argument "shrink" to hierarchical reclaim. If "shrink==true",
           hierarchical reclaim returns immediately and the caller checks the kernel
           should shrink more or not.
           (At shrinking memory, usage is always smaller than limit. So check for
            usage < limit is useless.)
      
        2. For adjusting to above change, 2 changes in "shrink"'s retry path.
           2-a. retry_count depends on # of children because the kernel visits
      	  the children under hierarchy one by one.
           2-b. rather than checking return value of hierarchical_reclaim's progress,
      	  compares usage-before-shrink and usage-after-shrink.
      	  If usage-before-shrink <= usage-after-shrink, retry_count is
      	  decremented.

      cgroups: don't change release_agent when remount failed · 0670e08b
      Li Zefan authored
      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!

      cgroups: show correct file mode · 099fca32
      Li Zefan authored
      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.

      cgroups: more documentation for remount and release_agent · b6719ec1
      Li Zefan authored
      This won't remove cpuacct from the mounted hierachy:
       # mount -t cgroup -o cpu,cpuacct xxx /mnt
       # mount -o remount,cpu /mnt
      
      Because for this usage mount(8) will append the new options to the original
      options.
      
      And this will get you right:
       # mount [-t cgroup] -o remount,cpu xxx /mnt
      
      Also document how to specify or change release_agent.

      cgroup: fix frequent -EBUSY at rmdir · ec64f515
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      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!"

      cgroup: CSS ID support · 38460b48
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      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.

      cgroups: relax ns_can_attach checks to allow attaching to grandchild cgroups · 313e924c
      Grzegorz Nosek authored
      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.
