No changes in fs/exec.o The for_each_process() loop in zap_threads() is very subtle, it is not clear why we don't race with fork/exit/exec. Add the fat comment. Also, change the code to use while_each_thread(). Signed-off-by:

fae5fa44 changed do_signal_stop() to check SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, this wasn't needed. If signal_group_exit() == F, the signal sent to SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE task must be already filtered out by the caller, get_signal_to_deliver(). And if signal_group_exit() == T we are not going to stop. Signed-off-by:

dequeue_signal() checks SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT before setting SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED. This was added by 788e05a6 a long ago to avoid the coredump/SIGSTOP race. Since then the related code was changed, and now this subtle check is both incomplete and unneeded at the same time. It is incomplete because nowadays exec() doesn't set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, so in fact we should check signal_group_exit() to avoid a similar race. Fortunately, we doesn't need the check at all. The only function which relies on SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED is do_signal_stop(), and it ignores this flag if signal_group_exit() == T, this covers the SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT case. Signed-off-by:

collect_signal() checks sigismember(&list->signal, sig), this is not needed. This "sig" was just found by next_signal(), so it must be valid. We have a (completely broken) call to ->notifier in between, but it must not play with sigpending->signal bits or unlock ->siglock. Signed-off-by:

release_posix_timer() can't be called with ->it_process != NULL. Once sys_timer_create() sets ->it_process it must not call release_posix_timer(), otherwise we can race with another thread doing sys_timer_delete(), this timer is visible to idr_find() and unlocked. The same is true for two other callers (actually, for any possible caller), sys_timer_delete() and itimer_delete(). They must clear ->it_process before unlock_timer() + release_posix_timer(). Signed-off-by:

Oleg Nesterov authored
sys_timer_delete() and itimer_delete() check "timer->it_process != NULL", this looks completely bogus. ->it_process == NULL means that this timer is already under destruction or it is not fully initialized, this must not happen. sys_timer_delete: the timer is locked, and lock_timer() can't succeed if ->it_process == NULL. itimer_delete: it is called by exit_itimers() when there are no other threads which can play with signal_struct->posix_timers.

In cpuset_update_task_memory_state() local variable struct task_struct *tsk = current; And local variable tsk is used 14 times and statement task_cs(tsk) is used twice in this function. So using task_cs(tsk) instead of task_cs(current) is better for readability. And "(struct cgroup_scanner *)&scan" is not good for readability also. (and "container_of" is used in cpuset_do_move_task(), not "(cpuset_hotplug_scanner *)scan") Signed-off-by:

I create lots of empty cpusets(empty cpumasks) and turn off the "sched_load_balance" in top cpuset. I found that all these empty cpumasks are passed to partition_sched_domains() in rebuild_sched_domains(), it's very time-consuming for partition_sched_domains() and it's not need. It also reduce memory consumed and some works in rebuild_sched_domains() too. Signed-off-by:

The bug is that a task may run on the cpu/node which is not in its cpuset.cpus/ cpuset.mems. It can be reproduced by the following commands: ----------------------------------- # mkdir /dev/cpuset # mount -t cpuset xxx /dev/cpuset # mkdir /dev/cpuset/0 # echo 0-1 > /dev/cpuset/0/cpus # echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/mems # echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/0/tasks # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online ----------------------------------- There is only CPU0 in cpuset.cpus, but the task in this cpuset runs on both CPU0 and CPU1. It is because the task's cpu_allowed didn't get updated after we did CPU offline/online manipulation. Similar for mem_allowed. This patch fixes this bug expect for root cpuset. Because there is a problem about root cpuset, in that whether it is necessary to update all the tasks in root cpuset or not after cpu/node offline/online. If updating, some kernel threads which is bound into a specified cpu will be unbound. If not updating, there is a bug in root cpuset. This bug is also caused by offline/online manipulation. For example, there is a dual-cpu machine. we create a sub cpuset in root cpuset and assign 1 to its cpus. And then we attach some tasks into this sub cpuset. After this, we offline CPU1. Now, the tasks in this new cpuset are moved into root cpuset automatically because there is no cpu in sub cpuset. Then we online CPU1, we find all the tasks which doesn't belong to root cpuset originally just run on CPU0. Maybe we need to add a flag in the task_struct to mark which task can't be unbound?

Because of remove refcnt patch, it's very rare case to that mem_cgroup_charge_common() is called against a page which is accounted. mem_cgroup_charge_common() is called when. 1. a page is added into file cache. 2. an anon page is _newly_ mapped. A racy case is that a newly-swapped-in anonymous page is referred from prural threads in do_swap_page() at the same time. (a page is not Locked when mem_cgroup_charge() is called from do_swap_page.) Another case is shmem. It charges its page before calling add_to_page_cache(). Then, mem_cgroup_charge_cache() is called twice. This case is handled in mem_cgroup_cache_charge(). But this check may be too hacky... Signed-off-by : KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@in.ibm.com> Cc: "Eric W.

A new call, mem_cgroup_shrink_usage() is added for shmem handling and relacing non-standard usage of mem_cgroup_charge/uncharge. Now, shmem calls mem_cgroup_charge() just for reclaim some pages from mem_cgroup. In general, shmem is used by some process group and not for global resource (like file caches). So, it's reasonable to reclaim pages from mem_cgroup where shmem is mainly used.

This patch changes page migration under memory controller to use a different algorithm. (thanks to Christoph for new idea.) Before: - page_cgroup is migrated from an old page to a new page. After: - a new page is accounted , no reuse of page_cgroup. Pros: - We can avoid compliated lock depndencies and races in migration. Cons: - new param to mem_cgroup_charge_common(). - mem_cgroup_getref() is added for handling ref_cnt ping-pong. This version simplifies complicated lock dependency in page migraiton under memory resource controller. new refcnt sequence is following. a mapped page: prepage_migration() ..... +1 to NEW page try_to_unmap() ..... all refs to OLD page is gone. move_pages() ..... +1 to NEW page if page cache. remap... ..... all refs from *map* is added to NEW one. end_migration() ..... -1 to New page. page's mapcount + (page_is_cache) refs are added to NEW one.

Currently this list is protected with a simple spinlock, even for reading from one. This is OK, but can be better. Actually I want it to be better very much, since after replacing the OpenVZ device permissions engine with the cgroup-based one I noticed, that we set 12 default device permissions for each newly created container (for /dev/null, full, terminals, ect devices), and people sometimes have up to 20 perms more, so traversing the ~30-40 elements list under a spinlock doesn't seem very good. Here's the RCU protection for white-list - dev_whitelist_item-s are added and removed under the devcg->lock, but are looked up in permissions checking under the rcu_read_lock. Signed-off-by:

cgroup_clone creates a new cgroup with the pid of the task. This works correctly for unshare, but for clone cgroup_clone is called from copy_namespaces inside copy_process, which happens before the new pid is created. As a result, the new cgroup was created with current's pid. This patch: 1. Moves the call inside copy_process to after the new pid is created 2. Passes the struct pid into ns_cgroup_clone (as it is not yet attached to the task) 3. Passes a name from ns_cgroup_clone() into cgroup_clone() so as to keep cgroup_clone() itself simpler 4. Uses pid_vnr() to get the process id value, so that the pid used to name the new cgroup is always the pid as it would be known to the task which did the cloning or unsharing. I think that is the most intuitive thing to do. This way, task t1 does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get t2, which does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get t3, then the cgroup for t3 will be named for the pid by which t2 knows t3. (Thanks to Dan Smith for finding the main bug) Changelog: June 11: Incorporate Paul Menage's feedback: don't pass NULL to ns_cgroup_clone from unshare, and reduce patch size by using 'nodename' in cgroup_clone.

Currently res_counter_write() is a raw file handler even though it's ultimately taking a number, since in some cases it wants to pre-process the string when converting it to a number. This patch converts res_counter_write() from a raw file handler to a write_string() handler; this allows some of the boilerplate copying/locking/checking to be removed, and simplies the cleanup path, since these functions are now performed by the cgroups framework.

Adds cgroup_release_agent_write() and cgroup_release_agent_show() methods to handle writing/reading the path to a cgroup hierarchy's release agent. As a result, cgroup_common_file_read() is now unnecessary. As part of the change, a previously-tolerated race in cgroup_release_agent() is avoided by copying the current release_agent_path prior to calling call_usermode_helper(). Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a write_string() method for cgroups control files. The semantics are that a buffer is copied from userspace to kernelspace and the handler function invoked on that buffer. The buffer is guaranteed to be nul-terminated, and no longer than max_write_len (defaulting to 64 bytes if unspecified). Later patches will convert existing raw file write handlers in control group subsystems to use this method. Signed-off-by:

Ignoring their return values may result in counter underflow in the future - when the value charged will be uncharged (or in "leaks" - when the value is not uncharged). This also prevents from using charging routines to decrement the counter value (i.e. uncharge it) ;) (Current code works OK with res_counter, however :) ) Signed-off-by:
