      cgroup: make CSS_* flags bit masks instead of bit positions · 38b53aba
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, CSS_* flags are defined as bit positions and manipulated
      using atomic bitops.  There's no reason to use atomic bitops for them
      and bit positions are clunkier to deal with than bit masks.  Make
      CSS_* bit masks instead and use the usual C bitwise operators to
      access them.

      cgroup: cgroup->dentry isn't a RCU pointer · febfcef6
      Tejun Heo authored
      cgroup->dentry is marked and used as a RCU pointer; however, it isn't
      one - the final dentry put doesn't go through call_rcu().  cgroup and
      dentry share the same RCU freeing rule via synchronize_rcu() in
      cgroup_diput() (kfree_rcu() used on cgrp is unnecessary).  If cgrp is
      accessible under RCU read lock, so is its dentry and dereferencing
      cgrp->dentry doesn't need any further RCU protection or annotation.
      
      While not being accurate, before the previous patch, the RCU accessors
      served a purpose as memory barriers - cgroup->dentry used to be
      assigned after the cgroup was made visible to cgroup_path(), so the
      assignment and dereferencing in cgroup_path() needed the memory
      barrier pair.  Now that list_add_tail_rcu() happens after
      cgroup->dentry is assigned, this no longer is necessary.
      
      Remove the now unnecessary and misleading RCU annotations from
      cgroup->dentry.  To make up for the removal of rcu_dereference_check()
      in cgroup_path(), add an explicit rcu_lockdep_assert(), which asserts
      the dereference rule of @cgrp, not cgrp->dentry.

      cgroup: create directory before linking while creating a new cgroup · 4e139afc
      Tejun Heo authored
      While creating a new cgroup, cgroup_create() links the newly allocated
      cgroup into various places before trying to create its directory.
      Because cgroup life-cycle is tied to the vfs objects, this makes it
      impossible to use cgroup_rmdir() for rolling back creation - the
      removal logic depends on having full vfs objects.
      
      This patch moves directory creation above linking and collect linking
      operations to one place.  This allows directory creation failure to
      share error exit path with css allocation failures and any failure
      sites afterwards (to be added later) can use cgroup_rmdir() logic to
      undo creation.
      
      Note that this also makes the memory barriers around cgroup->dentry,
      which currently is misleadingly using RCU operations, unnecessary.
      This will be handled in the next patch.
      
      While at it, locking BUG_ON() on i_mutex is converted to
      lockdep_assert_held().
      
      v2: Patch originally removed %NULL dentry check in cgroup_path();
          however, Li pointed out that this patch doesn't make it
          unnecessary as ->create() may call cgroup_path().  Drop the
          change for now.

      cgroup_freezer: implement proper hierarchy support · ef9fe980
      Tejun Heo authored
      Up until now, cgroup_freezer didn't implement hierarchy properly.
      cgroups could be arranged in hierarchy but it didn't make any
      difference in how each cgroup_freezer behaved.  They all operated
      separately.
      
      This patch implements proper hierarchy support.  If a cgroup is
      frozen, all its descendants are frozen.  A cgroup is thawed iff it and
      all its ancestors are THAWED.  freezer.self_freezing shows the current
      freezing state for the cgroup itself.  freezer.parent_freezing shows
      whether the cgroup is freezing because any of its ancestors is
      freezing.
      
      freezer_post_create() locks the parent and new cgroup and inherits the
      parent's state and freezer_change_state() applies new state top-down
      using cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() which guarantees that no child
      can escape its parent's state.  update_if_frozen() uses
      cgroup_for_each_descendant_post() to propagate frozen states
      bottom-up.
      
      Synchronization could be coarser and easier by using a single mutex to
      protect all hierarchy operations.  Finer grained approach was used
      because it wasn't too difficult for cgroup_freezer and I think it's
      beneficial to have an example implementation and cgroup_freezer is
      rather simple and can serve a good one.
      
      As this makes cgroup_freezer properly hierarchical,
      freezer_subsys.broken_hierarchy marking is removed.
      
      Note that this patch changes userland visible behavior - freezing a
      cgroup now freezes all its descendants too.  This behavior change is
      intended and has been warned via .broken_hierarchy.
      
      v2: Michal spotted a bug in freezer_change_state() - descendants were
          inheriting from the wrong ancestor.  Fixed.
      
      v3: Documentation/cgroups/freezer-subsystem.txt updated.

      cgroup_freezer: add ->post_create() and ->pre_destroy() and track online state · 5300a9b3
      Tejun Heo authored
      A cgroup is online and visible to iteration between ->post_create()
      and ->pre_destroy().  This patch introduces CGROUP_FREEZER_ONLINE and
      toggles it from the newly added freezer_post_create() and
      freezer_pre_destroy() while holding freezer->lock such that a
      cgroup_freezer can be reilably distinguished to be online.  This will
      be used by full hierarchy support.
      
      ONLINE test is added to freezer_apply_state() but it currently doesn't
      make any difference as freezer_write() can only be called for an
      online cgroup.
      
      Adjusting system_freezing_cnt on destruction is moved from
      freezer_destroy() to the new freezer_pre_destroy() for consistency.
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior change.

      cgroup_freezer: make freezer->state mask of flags · d6a2fe13
      Tejun Heo authored
      freezer->state was an enum value - one of THAWED, FREEZING and FROZEN.
      As the scheduled full hierarchy support requires more than one
      freezing condition, switch it to mask of flags.  If FREEZING is not
      set, it's thawed.  FREEZING is set if freezing or frozen.  If frozen,
      both FREEZING and FROZEN are set.  Now that tasks can be attached to
      an already frozen cgroup, this also makes freezing condition checks
      more natural.

      cgroup: implement generic child / descendant walk macros · 574bd9f7
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, cgroup doesn't provide any generic helper for walking a
      given cgroup's children or descendants.  This patch adds the following
      three macros.
      
      * cgroup_for_each_child() - walk immediate children of a cgroup.
      
      * cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() - visit all descendants of a cgroup
        in pre-order tree traversal.
      
      * cgroup_for_each_descendant_post() - visit all descendants of a
        cgroup in post-order tree traversal.
      
      All three only require the user to hold RCU read lock during
      traversal.  Verifying that each iterated cgroup is online is the
      responsibility of the user.  When used with proper synchronization,
      cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() can be used to propagate state
      updates to descendants in reliable way.  See comments for details.
      
      v2: s/config/state/ in commit message and comments per Michal.  More
          documentation on synchronization rules.

      cgroup: add cgroup_subsys->post_create() · a8638030
      Tejun Heo authored
      Currently, there's no way for a controller to find out whether a new
      cgroup finished all ->create() allocatinos successfully and is
      considered "live" by cgroup.
      
      This becomes a problem later when we add generic descendants walking
      to cgroup which can be used by controllers as controllers don't have a
      synchronization point where it can synchronize against new cgroups
      appearing in such walks.
      
      This patch adds ->post_create().  It's called after all ->create()
      succeeded and the cgroup is linked into the generic cgroup hierarchy.
      This plays the counterpart of ->pre_destroy().
      
      When used in combination with the to-be-added generic descendant
      iterators, ->post_create() can be used to implement reliable state
      inheritance.  It will be explained with the descendant iterators.
      
      v2: Added a paragraph about its future use w/ descendant iterators per
          Michal.
      
      v3: Forgot to add ->post_create() invocation to cgroup_load_subsys().

      Now that pre_destroy callbacks are called from the context where neither
      any task can attach the group nor any children group can be added there
      is no other way to fail from mem_cgroup_pre_destroy.
      mem_cgroup_pre_destroy doesn't have to take a reference to memcg's css
      because all css' are marked dead already.
      
      tj: Remove now unused local variable @cgrp from
          mem_cgroup_reparent_charges().

      cgroup: remove CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR, cgroup_exclude_rmdir() and cgroup_release_and_wakeup_rmdir() · b25ed609
      Tejun Heo authored
      CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR is another kludge which was added to make cgroup
      destruction rollback somewhat working.  cgroup_rmdir() used to drain
      CSS references and CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR and the associated waitqueue and
      helpers were used to allow the task performing rmdir to wait for the
      next relevant event.
      
      Unfortunately, the wait is visible to controllers too and the
      mechanism got exposed to memcg by 88703267 ("cgroup avoid permanent
      sleep at rmdir").
      
      Now that the draining and retries are gone, CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR is
      unnecessary.  Remove it and all the mechanisms supporting it.  Note
      that memcontrol.c changes are essentially revert of 88703267
      ("cgroup avoid permanent sleep at rmdir").

      cgroup: deactivate CSS's and mark cgroup dead before invoking ->pre_destroy() · 1a90dd50
      Tejun Heo authored
      Because ->pre_destroy() could fail and can't be called under
      cgroup_mutex, cgroup destruction did something very ugly.
      
        1. Grab cgroup_mutex and verify it can be destroyed; fail otherwise.
      
        2. Release cgroup_mutex and call ->pre_destroy().
      
        3. Re-grab cgroup_mutex and verify it can still be destroyed; fail
           otherwise.
      
        4. Continue destroying.
      
      In addition to being ugly, it has been always broken in various ways.
      For example, memcg ->pre_destroy() expects the cgroup to be inactive
      after it's done but tasks can be attached and detached between #2 and
      #3 and the conditions that memcg verified in ->pre_destroy() might no
      longer hold by the time control reaches #3.
      
      Now that ->pre_destroy() is no longer allowed to fail.  We can switch
      to the following.
      
        1. Grab cgroup_mutex and verify it can be destroyed; fail otherwise.
      
        2. Deactivate CSS's and mark the cgroup removed thus preventing any
           further operations which can invalidate the verification from #1.
      
        3. Release cgroup_mutex and call ->pre_destroy().
      
        4. Re-grab cgroup_mutex and continue destroying.
      
      After this change, controllers can safely assume that ->pre_destroy()
      will only be called only once for a given cgroup and, once
      ->pre_destroy() is called, the cgroup will stay dormant till it's
      destroyed.
      
      This removes the only reason ->pre_destroy() can fail - new task being
      attached or child cgroup being created inbetween.  Error out path is
      removed and ->pre_destroy() invocation is open coded in
      cgroup_rmdir().
      
      v2: cgroup_call_pre_destroy() removal moved to this patch per Michal.

      cgroup: use cgroup_lock_live_group(parent) in cgroup_create() · 976c06bc
      Tejun Heo authored
      This patch makes cgroup_create() fail if @parent is marked removed.
      This is to prepare for further updates to cgroup_rmdir() path.
      
      Note that this change isn't strictly necessary.  cgroup can only be
      created via mkdir and the removed marking and dentry removal happen
      without releasing cgroup_mutex, so cgroup_create() can never race with
      cgroup_rmdir().  Even after the scheduled updates to cgroup_rmdir(),
      cgroup_mkdir() and cgroup_rmdir() are synchronized by i_mutex
      rendering the added liveliness check unnecessary.
      
      Do it anyway such that locking is contained inside cgroup proper and
      we don't get nasty surprises if we ever grow another caller of
      cgroup_create().

      cgroup: kill CSS_REMOVED · e9316080
      Tejun Heo authored
      CSS_REMOVED is one of the several contortions which were necessary to
      support css reference draining on cgroup removal.  All css->refcnts
      which need draining should be deactivated and verified to equal zero
      atomically w.r.t. css_tryget().  If any one isn't zero, all refcnts
      needed to be re-activated and css_tryget() shouldn't fail in the
      process.
      
      This was achieved by letting css_tryget() busy-loop until either the
      refcnt is reactivated (failed removal attempt) or CSS_REMOVED is set
      (committing to removal).
      
      Now that css refcnt draining is no longer used, there's no need for
      atomic rollback mechanism.  css_tryget() simply can look at the
      reference count and fail if it's deactivated - it's never getting
      re-activated.
      
      This patch removes CSS_REMOVED and updates __css_tryget() to fail if
      the refcnt is deactivated.  As deactivation and removal are a single
      step now, they no longer need to be protected against css_tryget()
      happening from irq context.  Remove local_irq_disable/enable() from
      cgroup_rmdir().
      
      Note that this removes css_is_removed() whose only user is VM_BUG_ON()
      in memcontrol.c.  We can replace it with a check on the refcnt but
      given that the only use case is a debug assert, I think it's better to
      simply unexport it.
      
      v2: Comment updated and explanation on local_irq_disable/enable()
          added per Michal Hocko.

      cgroup: kill cgroup_subsys->__DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs · ed957793
      Tejun Heo authored
      2ef37d3f ("memcg: Simplify mem_cgroup_force_empty_list error
      handling") removed the last user of __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs.  This
      patch removes __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs and mechanisms to support
      it.
      
      * Conditionals dependent on __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs removed.
      
      * cgroup_clear_css_refs() can no longer fail.  All that needs to be
        done are deactivating refcnts, setting CSS_REMOVED and putting the
        base reference on each css.  Remove cgroup_clear_css_refs() and the
        failure path, and open-code the loops into cgroup_rmdir().
      
      This patch keeps the two for_each_subsys() loops separate while open
      coding them.  They can be merged now but there are scheduled changes
      which need them to be separate, so keep them separate to reduce the
      amount of churn.
      
      local_irq_save/restore() from cgroup_clear_css_refs() are replaced
      with local_irq_disable/enable() for simplicity.  This is safe as
      cgroup_rmdir() is always called with IRQ enabled.  Note that this IRQ
      switching is necessary to ensure that css_tryget() isn't called from
      IRQ context on the same CPU while lower context is between CSS
      deactivation and setting CSS_REMOVED as css_tryget() would hang
      forever in such cases waiting for CSS to be re-activated or
      CSS_REMOVED set.  This will go away soon.
      
      v2: cgroup_call_pre_destroy() removal dropped per Michal.  Commit
          message updated to explain local_irq_disable/enable() conversion.

      l2tp: fix oops in l2tp_eth_create() error path · 78933636
      Tom Parkin authored
      When creating an L2TPv3 Ethernet session, if register_netdev() should fail for
      any reason (for example, automatic naming for "l2tpeth%d" interfaces hits the
      32k-interface limit), the netdev is freed in the error path.  However, the
      l2tp_eth_sess structure's dev pointer is left uncleared, and this results in
      l2tp_eth_delete() then attempting to unregister the same netdev later in the
      session teardown.  This results in an oops.
      
      To avoid this, clear the session dev pointer in the error path.
