If we mount a hierarchy with a specified name, the name is unique, and we can use it to mount the hierarchy without specifying its set of subsystem names. This feature is documented is Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt section 2.3 Here's an example: # mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,name=myhier xxx /cgroup1 # mount -t cgroup -o name=myhier xxx /cgroup2 But it was broken by commit 32a8cf23 (cgroup: make the mount options parsing more accurate) This fixes the regression.

cgroup_post_fork() is protected between threadgroup_change_begin() and threadgroup_change_end() against concurrent changes of the child's css_set in cgroup_task_migrate(). Also the child can't exit and call cgroup_exit() at this stage, this means it's css_set can't be changed with init_css_set concurrently. For these reasons, we don't need to hold task_lock() on the child because it's css_set can only remain stable in this place. Let's remove the lock there. v2: Update comment to explain that we are safe against cgroup_exit() Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Containers <containers@lists.linux-foundation.org> Cc: Cgroups <cgroups@vger.kernel.org> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Paul Menage <paul@paulmenage.org> Cc: Mandeep Singh Baines <msb@chromium.org>

We don't need to hold the parent task_lock() on the parent in cgroup_fork() because we are already synchronized against the two places that may change the parent css_set concurrently: - cgroup_exit(), but the parent obviously can't exit concurrently - cgroup migration: we are synchronized against threadgroup_lock() So we can safely remove the task_lock() there.

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.

Currently, there's no way to pass multiple tasks to cgroup_subsys methods necessitating the need for separate per-process and per-task methods. This patch introduces cgroup_taskset which can be used to pass multiple tasks and their associated cgroups to cgroup_subsys methods. Three methods - can_attach(), cancel_attach() and attach() - are converted to use cgroup_taskset. This unifies passed parameters so that all methods have access to all information. Conversions in this patchset are identical and don't introduce any behavior change. -v2: documentation updated as per Paul Menage's suggestion.

cgroup_attach_proc() behaves differently from cgroup_attach_task() in the following aspects. * All hooks are invoked even if no task is actually being moved. * ->can_attach_task() is called for all tasks in the group whether the new cgrp is different from the current cgrp or not; however, ->attach_task() is skipped if new equals new. This makes the calls asymmetric. This patch improves old cgroup handling in cgroup_attach_proc() by looking up the current cgroup at the head, recording it in the flex array along with the task itself, and using it to remove the above two differences. This will also ease further changes. -v2: nr_todo renamed to nr_migrating_tasks as per Paul Menage's suggestion.

Update cgroup to take advantage of the fack that threadgroup_lock() guarantees stable threadgroup. * Lock threadgroup even if the target is a single task. This guarantees that when the target tasks stay stable during migration regardless of the target type. * Remove PF_EXITING early exit optimization from attach_task_by_pid() and check it in cgroup_task_migrate() instead. The optimization was for rather cold path to begin with and PF_EXITING state can be trusted throughout migration by checking it after locking threadgroup. * Don't add PF_EXITING tasks to target task array in cgroup_attach_proc(). This ensures that task migration is performed only for live tasks. * Remove -ESRCH failure path from cgroup_task_migrate(). With the above changes, it's guaranteed to be called only for live tasks. After the changes, only live tasks are migrated and they're guaranteed to stay alive until migration is complete. This removes problems caused by exec and exit racing against cgroup migration including symmetry among cgroup attach methods and different cgroup methods racing each other. v2: Oleg pointed out that one more PF_EXITING check can be removed from cgroup_attach_proc().

threadgroup_lock() protected only protected against new addition to the threadgroup, which was inherently somewhat incomplete and problematic for its only user cgroup. On-going migration could race against exec and exit leading to interesting problems - the symmetry between various attach methods, task exiting during method execution, ->exit() racing against attach methods, migrating task switching basic properties during exec and so on. This patch extends threadgroup_lock() such that it protects against all three threadgroup altering operations - fork, exit and exec. For exit, threadgroup_change_begin/end() calls are added to exit_signals around assertion of PF_EXITING. For exec, threadgroup_[un]lock() are updated to also grab and release cred_guard_mutex. With this change, threadgroup_lock() guarantees that the target threadgroup will remain stable - no new task will be added, no new PF_EXITING will be set and exec won't happen. The next patch will update cgroup so that it can take full advantage of this change. -v2: beefed up comment as suggested by Frederic. -v3: narrowed scope of protection in exit path as suggested by Frederic.

This unfortunately completes circular dependency. A. cgroup_mutex -> cred_guard_mutex -> s_type->i_mutex_key -> namespace_sem B. namespace_sem -> cgroup_mutex B is from cgroup_show_options() and this patch breaks it by introducing another mutex cgroup_root_mutex which nests inside cgroup_mutex and protects cgroupfs_root.

At present, the functions freezer_count() and freezer_do_not_count() impose the restriction that they are effective only for userspace processes. However, now, these functions have found more utility than originally intended by the commit which introduced it: ba96a0c8 (freezer: fix vfork problem). And moreover, even the vfork issue actually does not need the above restriction in these functions. So, modify these functions to make them work even for kernel threads, so that they can be used at other places in the kernel, where the userspace restriction doesn't apply.

wait_event_freezable() and friends stop the waiting if try_to_freeze() fails. This is not right, we can race with __thaw_task() and in this case - wait_event_freezable() returns the wrong ERESTARTSYS - wait_event_freezable_timeout() can return the positive value while condition == F Change the code to always check __retval/condition before return. Note: with or without this patch the timeout logic looks strange, probably we should recalc timeout if try_to_freeze() returns T.

There's no in-kernel user of set_freezable_with_signal() left. Mixing TIF_SIGPENDING with kernel threads can lead to nasty corner cases as kernel threads never travel signal delivery path on their own. e.g. the current implementation is buggy in the cancelation path of __thaw_task(). It calls recalc_sigpending_and_wake() in an attempt to clear TIF_SIGPENDING but the function never clears it regardless of sigpending state. This means that signallable freezable kthreads may continue executing with !freezing() && stuck TIF_SIGPENDING, which can be troublesome. This patch removes set_freezable_with_signal() along with PF_FREEZER_NOSIG and recalc_sigpending*() calls in freezer. User tasks get TIF_SIGPENDING, kernel tasks get woken up and the spurious sigpending is dealt with in the usual signal delivery path.

Commit 981ed70d (dmatest: make dmatest threads freezable) made dmatest kthread use set_freezable_with_signal(); however, the interface is scheduled to be removed in the next merge window. The problem is that unlike userland tasks there's no default place which handles signal pending state and it isn't clear who owns and/or is responsible for clearing TIF_SIGPENDING. For example, in the current code, try_to_freeze() clears TIF_SIGPENDING but it isn't sure whether it actually owns the TIF_SIGPENDING nor is it race-free - ie. the task may continue to run with TIF_SIGPENDING set after the freezable section. Unfortunately, we don't have wait_for_completion_freezable_timeout(). This patch open codes it and uses wait_event_freezable_timeout() instead and removes timeout reloading - wait_event_freezable_timeout() won't return across freezing events (currently racy but fix scheduled) and timer doesn't decrement while the task is in freezer. Although this does lose timer-reset-over-freezing, given that timeout is supposed to be long enough and failure to finish inside is considered irrecoverable, I don't think this is worth the complexity. While at it, move completion to outer scope and explain that we're ignoring dangling pointer problem after timeout. This should give slightly better chance at avoiding oops after timeout.

There is a potential integer overflow in drm_mode_dirtyfb_ioctl() if userspace passes in a large num_clips. The call to kmalloc would allocate a small buffer, and the call to fb->funcs->dirty may result in a memory corruption.

This reverts commit dc937280. As requested by Ben Herrenschmidt: "This breaks some powerpc platforms at least. The practice of having a node provide an explicit "interrupt-parent" property pointing to itself is an old trick that we've used in the past to allow a device-node to have interrupts routed to different controllers. In that case, the node also contains an interrupt-map, so the node is its own parent, the interrupt resolution hits the map, which then can route each individual interrupt to a different parent." Grant says: "Ah, nuts, yes that is broken then. Yes, please revert the commit and Rob & I will come up with a better solution. Rob, I think it can be done by explicitly checking for np == desc->interrupt_parent in of_irq_init() instead of relying on of_irq_find_parent() returning NULL."
