ae7f164a ("cgroup: move cgroup->subsys[] assignment to online_css()") moved cgroup->subsys[] assignements later in cgroup_create() but didn't update error handling path accordingly leading to the following oops and leaking later css's after an online_css() failure. The oops is from cgroup destruction path being invoked on the partially constructed cgroup which is not ready to handle empty slots in cgrp->subsys[] array.

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is updated so that it can be easily mapped to kernfs. With the previous changes, the difference between pidlist and other files are very small. Both are served by seq_file in a pretty standard way with the only difference being !pidlist files use single_open(). This patch adds cftype->seq_start(), ->seq_next and ->seq_stop() and implements the matching cgroup_seqfile_start/next/stop() which either emulates single_open() behavior or invokes cftype->seq_*() operations if specified. This allows using single seq_operations for both pidlist and other files and makes cgroup_pidlist_operations and cgorup_pidlist_open() no longer necessary. As cgroup_pidlist_open() was the only user of cftype->open(), the method is dropped together. This brings cftype file interface very close to kernfs interface and mapping shouldn't be too difficult. Once converted to kernfs, most of the plumbing code including cgroup_seqfile_*() will be removed as kernfs provides those facilities. This patch does not introduce any behavior changes. v2: Refreshed on top of the updated "cgroup: introduce struct cgroup_pidlist_open_file". v3: Refreshed on top of the updated "cgroup: attach cgroup_open_file to all cgroup files".

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is updated so that it can be easily mapped to kernfs. This patch replaces cftype->read_seq_string() with cftype->seq_show() which is not limited to single_open() operation and will map directcly to kernfs seq_file interface. The conversions are mechanical. As ->seq_show() doesn't have @css and @cft, the functions which make use of them are converted to use seq_css() and seq_cft() respectively. In several occassions, e.f. if it has seq_string in its name, the function name is updated to fit the new method better. This patch does not introduce any behavior changes. Signed-off-by:

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is updated so that it can be easily mapped to kernfs. This patch attaches cgroup_open_file, which used to be attached to pidlist files, to all cgroup files, introduces seq_css/cft() accessors to determine the cgroup_subsys_state and cftype associated with a given cgroup seq_file, exports them as public interface. This doesn't cause any behavior changes but unifies cgroup file handling across different file types and will help converting them to kernfs seq_show() interface. v2: Li pointed out that the original patch was using single_open_size() incorrectly assuming that the size param is private data size. Fix it by allocating @of separately and passing it to single_open() and explicitly freeing it in the release path. This isn't the prettiest but this path is gonna be restructured by the following patches pretty soon. Signed-off-by: -

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is updated so that it can be easily mapped to kernfs. This patch renames cgroup_pidlist_open_file to cgroup_open_file and updates it so that it only contains a field to identify the specific file, ->cfe, and an opaque ->priv pointer. When cgroup is converted to kernfs, this will be replaced by kernfs_open_file which contains about the same information. As whether the file is "cgroup.procs" or "tasks" should now be determined from cgroup_open_file->cfe, the cftype->private for the two files now carry the file type and cgroup_pidlist_start() reads the type through cfe->type->private. This makes the distinction between cgroup_tasks_open() and cgroup_procs_open() unnecessary. cgroup_pidlist_open() is now directly used as the open method. This patch doesn't make any behavior changes. v2: Refreshed on top of the updated "cgroup: introduce struct cgroup_pidlist_open_file". Signed-off-by: -

With the recent removal of cftype->read() and ->read_map(), only three operations are remaining, ->read_u64(), ->read_s64() and ->read_seq_string(). Currently, the first two are handled directly while the last is handled through seq_file. It is trivial to serve the first two through the seq_file path too. This patch restructures read path so that all operations are served through cgroup_seqfile_show(). This makes all cgroup files seq_file - single_open/release() are now used by default, cgroup_seqfile_operations is dropped, and cgroup_file_operations uses seq_read() for read. This simplifies the code and makes the read path easy to convert to use kernfs. Note that, while cgroup_file_operations uses seq_read() for read, it still uses generic_file_llseek() for seeking instead of seq_lseek(). This is different from cgroup_seqfile_operations but shouldn't break anything and brings the seeking behavior aligned with kernfs. Signed-off-by:

cgroup_write_X64() and cgroup_write_string() both implement about the same buffering logic. Unify the two into cgroup_file_write() which always allocates dynamic buffer for simplicity and uses kstrto*() instead of simple_strto*(). This patch doesn't make any visible behavior changes except for possibly different error value from kstrsto*(). Signed-off-by:

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is being consolidated so that it can be easily mapped to the seq_file based interface of kernfs. After recent updates, ->read() and ->read_map() don't have any user left and ->write() never had any user. Remove them. Signed-off-by:

Rename cpuset_common_file_read() to cpuset_common_read_seq_string() and convert it to use read_seq_string() interface instead. This not only simplifies the code but also makes it more versatile. Before, the file couldn't output if the result is longer than PAGE_SIZE. After the conversion, seq_file automatically grows the buffer until the output can fit.

For some reason, tasks and cgroup.procs guarantee that the result is sorted. This is the only reason this whole pidlist logic is necessary instead of just iterating through sorted member tasks. We can't do anything about the existing interface but at least ensure that such expectation doesn't exist for the new interface so that pidlist logic may be removed in the distant future. This patch scrambles the sort order if sane_behavior so that the output is usually not sorted in the new interface. Signed-off-by:

After the recent changes, pidlist ref is held only between cgroup_pidlist_start() and cgroup_pidlist_stop() during which cgroup->pidlist_mutex is also held. IOW, the reference count is redundant now. While in use, it's always one and pidlist_mutex is held - holding the mutex has exactly the same protection. This patch collapses destroy_dwork queueing into cgroup_pidlist_stop() so that pidlist_mutex is not released inbetween and drops pidlist->use_count. This patch shouldn't introduce any behavior changes. Signed-off-by:

Currently, pidlists are reference counted from file open and release methods. This means that holding onto an open file may waste memory and reads may return data which is very stale. Both aren't critical because pidlists are keyed and shared per namespace and, well, the user isn't supposed to have large delay between open and reads. cgroup is planned to be converted to use kernfs and it'd be best if we can stick to just the seq_file operations - start, next, stop and show. This can be achieved by loading pidlist on demand from start and release with time delay from stop, so that consecutive reads don't end up reloading the pidlist on each iteration. This would remove the need for hooking into open and release while also avoiding issues with holding onto pidlist for too long. The previous patches implemented delayed release and restructured pidlist handling so that pidlists can be loaded and released from seq_file start / stop. This patch actually moves pidlist load to start and release to stop. This means that pidlist is pinned only between start and stop and may go away between two consecutive read calls if the two calls are apart by more than CGROUP_PIDLIST_DESTROY_DELAY. cgroup_pidlist_start() thus can't re-use the stored cgroup_pid_list_open_file->pidlist directly. During start, it's only used as a hint indicating whether this is the first start after open or not and pidlist is always looked up or created. pidlist_mutex locking and reference counting are moved out of pidlist_array_load() so that pidlist_array_load() can perform lookup and creation atomically. While this enlarges the area covered by pidlist_mutex, given how the lock is used, it's highly unlikely to be noticeable. v2: Refreshed on top of the updated "cgroup: introduce struct cgroup_pidlist_open_file".

cgroup_pidlist locking is needlessly complicated. It has outer cgroup->pidlist_mutex to protect the list of pidlists associated with a cgroup and then each pidlist has rwsem to synchronize updates and reads. Given that the only read access is from seq_file operations which are always invoked back-to-back, the rwsem is a giant overkill. All it does is adding unnecessary complexity. This patch removes cgroup_pidlist->rwsem and protects all accesses to pidlists belonging to a cgroup with cgroup->pidlist_mutex. pidlist->rwsem locking is removed if it's nested inside cgroup->pidlist_mutex; otherwise, it's replaced with cgroup->pidlist_mutex locking.

For pidlist files, seq_file->private pointed to the loaded cgroup_pidlist; however, pidlist loading is planned to be moved to cgroup_pidlist_start() for kernfs conversion and seq_file->private needs to carry more information from open to allow that. This patch introduces struct cgroup_pidlist_open_file which contains type, cgrp and pidlist and updates pidlist seq_file->private to point to it using seq_open_private() and seq_release_private(). Note that this eventually will be replaced by kernfs_open_file. While this patch makes more information available to seq_file operations, they don't use it yet and this patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes except for allocation of the extra private struct. v2: use __seq_open_private() instead of seq_open_private() for brevity as suggested by Li.

This would remove the need for hooking into open and release while also avoiding issues with holding onto pidlist for too long. This patch implements delayed release of pidlist. As pidlists could be lingering on cgroup removal waiting for the timer to expire, cgroup free path needs to queue the destruction work item immediately and flush. As those work items are self-destroying, each work item can't be flushed directly. A new workqueue - cgroup_pidlist_destroy_wq - is added to serve as flush domain. Note that this patch just adds delayed release on top of the current implementation and doesn't change where pidlist is loaded and released. Following patches will make those changes. Signed-off-by:

Now that pidlist files don't use cftype->release(), it doesn't have any user left. Remove it. Signed-off-by:

Tejun Heo authored
Currently, cgroup_pidlist_open() skips seq_open() and pidlist loading if the file is opened write-only, which is a sensible optimization as pidlist loading can be costly and there often are occasions where tasks or cgroup.procs is opened write-only. However, pidlist init and release are planned to be moved to cgroup_pidlist_start/stop() respectively which would make this optimization unnecessary. This patch removes the optimization and always fully initializes pidlist files regardless of open mode. This will help moving pidlist handling to start/stop by unifying rw paths and removes the need for specifying cftype->release() in addition to .release in cgroup_pidlist_operations as file->f_op is now always overridden. As pidlist files were the only user of cftype->release(), the next patch will remove the method. Signed-off-by:

Pull to receive e605b365 ("cgroup: fix cgroup_subsys_state leak for seq_files") as for-3.14 is scheduled to have a lot of changes which depend on it. Signed-off-by:
-
Tejun Heo authored
If a cgroup file implements either read_map() or read_seq_string(), such file is served using seq_file by overriding file->f_op to cgroup_seqfile_operations, which also overrides the release method to single_release() from cgroup_file_release(). Because cgroup_file_open() didn't use to acquire any resources, this used to be fine, but since f7d58818 ("cgroup: pin cgroup_subsys_state when opening a cgroupfs file"), cgroup_file_open() pins the css (cgroup_subsys_state) which is put by cgroup_file_release(). The patch forgot to update the release path for seq_files and each open/release cycle leaks a css reference. Fix it by updating cgroup_file_release() to also handle seq_files and using it for seq_file release path too. Signed-off-by:

Merge v3.12 based patch series to move cgroup_event implementation to memcg into for-3.14. The following two commits cause a conflict in kernel/cgroup.c 2ff2a7d0 ("cgroup: kill css_id") 79bd9814 ("cgroup, memcg: move cgroup_event implementation to memcg") Each patch removes a struct definition from kernel/cgroup.c. As the two are adjacent, they cause a context conflict. Easily resolved by removing both structs. Signed-off-by:

The only use of cgroup_event->cft is distinguishing "usage_in_bytes" and "memsw.usgae_in_bytes" for mem_cgroup_usage_[un]register_event(), which can be done by adding an explicit argument to the function and implementing two wrappers so that the two cases can be distinguished from the function alone.

cgroup_event is being moved from cgroup core to memcg and the implementation is already moved by the previous patch. This patch moves the data fields and callbacks. * cgroup->event_list[_lock] are moved to mem_cgroup. * cftype->[un]register_event() are moved to cgroup_event. This makes it impossible for individual cftype definitions to specify their event callbacks. This is worked around by simply hard-coding filename to event callback mapping in cgroup_write_event_control(). This is awkward and inflexible, which is actually desirable given that we don't want to grow more usages of this feature. * eventfd_ctx declaration is removed from cgroup.h, which makes vmpressure.h miss eventfd_ctx declaration. Include eventfd.h from vmpressure.h. v2: Use file name from dentry instead of cftype. This will allow removing all cftype handling in the function. Signed-off-by: -

cgroup_event is way over-designed and tries to build a generic flexible event mechanism into cgroup - fully customizable event specification for each user of the interface. This is utterly unnecessary and overboard especially in the light of the planned unified hierarchy as there's gonna be single agent. Simply generating events at fixed points, or if that's too restrictive, configureable cadence or single set of configureable points should be enough. Thankfully, memcg is the only user and gets to keep it. Replacing it with something simpler on sane_behavior is strongly recommended. This patch moves cgroup_event and "cgroup.event_control" implementation to mm/memcontrol.c. Clearing of events on cgroup destruction is moved from cgroup_destroy_locked() to mem_cgroup_css_offline(), which shouldn't make any noticeable difference. cgroup_css() and __file_cft() are exported to enable the move; however, this will soon be reverted once the event code is updated to be memcg specific. Note that "cgroup.event_control" will now exist only on the hierarchy with memcg attached to it. While this change is visible to userland, it is unlikely to be noticeable as the file has never been meaningful outside memcg. Aside from the above change, this is pure code relocation. v2: Per Li Zefan's comments, init/Kconfig updated accordingly and poll.h inclusion moved from cgroup.c to memcontrol.c. Signed-off-by: -

Since be445626 ("cgroup: remove synchronize_rcu() from cgroup_diput()"), cgroup destruction path makes use of workqueue. css freeing is performed from a work item from that point on and a later commit, ea15f8cc ("cgroup: split cgroup destruction into two steps"), moves css offlining to workqueue too. As cgroup destruction isn't depended upon for memory reclaim, the destruction work items were put on the system_wq; unfortunately, some controller may block in the destruction path for considerable duration while holding cgroup_mutex. As large part of destruction path is synchronized through cgroup_mutex, when combined with high rate of cgroup removals, this has potential to fill up system_wq's max_active of 256. Also, it turns out that memcg's css destruction path ends up queueing and waiting for work items on system_wq through work_on_cpu(). If such operation happens while system_wq is fully occupied by cgroup destruction work items, work_on_cpu() can't make forward progress because system_wq is full and other destruction work items on system_wq can't make forward progress because the work item waiting for work_on_cpu() is holding cgroup_mutex, leading to deadlock. This can be fixed by queueing destruction work items on a separate workqueue. This patch creates a dedicated workqueue - cgroup_destroy_wq - for this purpose. As these work items shouldn't have inter-dependencies and mostly serialized by cgroup_mutex anyway, giving high concurrency level doesn't buy anything and the workqueue's @max_active is set to 1 so that destruction work items are executed one by one on each CPU. Hugh Dickins: Because cgroup_init() is run before init_workqueues(), cgroup_destroy_wq can't be allocated from cgroup_init(). Do it from a separate core_initcall(). In the future, we probably want to reorder so that workqueue init happens before cgroup_init(). Signed-off-by:
