0d19ea8665 cgroup: fix to allow mounting a hierarchy by name
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 32a8cf235e
(cgroup: make the mount options parsing more accurate)

This fixes the regression.

7e3aa30ac8 cgroup: Remove task_lock() from cgroup_post_fork()
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()

c84cdf75cc cgroup: Remove unnecessary task_lock before fetching css_set on migration
When we fetch the css_set of the tasks on cgroup migration, we don't need
anymore to synchronize against cgroup_exit() that could swap the old one
with init_css_set. Now that we are using threadgroup_lock() during
the migrations, we don't need to worry about it anymore.

7e381b0eb1 cgroup: Drop task_lock(parent) on cgroup_fork()
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.

e0197aae59 cgroups: fix a css_set not found bug in cgroup_attach_proc
There is a BUG when migrating a PF_EXITING proc. Since css_set_prefetch()
is not called for the PF_EXITING case, find_existing_css_set() will return
NULL inside cgroup_task_migrate() causing a BUG.

This bug is easy to reproduce. Create a zombie and echo its pid to
cgroup.procs.

$ cat zombie.c
\#include <unistd.h>

int main()
{
  if (fork())
      pause();
  return 0;
}
$

We are hitting this bug pretty regularly on ChromeOS.

This bug is already fixed by Tejun Heo's cgroup patchset which is
targetted for the next merge window:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/1/356

I've create a smaller patch here which just fixes this bug so that a
fix can be merged into the current release and stable.

2f7ee5691e cgroup: introduce cgroup_taskset and use it in subsys->can_attach(), cancel_attach() and attach()
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.

134d33737f cgroup: improve old cgroup handling in cgroup_attach_proc()
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.

cd3d095275 cgroup: always lock threadgroup during migration
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().  Removed.

e25e2cbb4c cgroup: add cgroup_root_mutex
cgroup wants to make threadgroup stable while modifying cgroup
hierarchies which will introduce locking dependency on
cred_guard_mutex from cgroup_mutex.  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.

c1e2ee2dc4 memcg: replace ss->id_lock with a rwlock
While back-porting Johannes Weiner's patch "mm: memcg-aware global
reclaim" for an internal effort, we noticed a significant performance
regression during page-reclaim heavy workloads due to high contention of
the ss->id_lock.  This lock protects idr map, and serializes calls to
idr_get_next() in css_get_next() (which is used during the memcg hierarchy
walk).

Since idr_get_next() is just doing a look up, we need only serialize it
with respect to idr_remove()/idr_get_new().  By making the ss->id_lock a
rwlock, contention is greatly reduced and performance improves.

Tested: cat a 256m file from a ramdisk in a 128m container 50 times on
each core (one file + container per core) in parallel on a NUMA machine.
Result is the time for the test to complete in 1 of the containers.
Both kernels included Johannes' memcg-aware global reclaim patches.

Before rwlock patch: 1710.778s
After rwlock patch: 152.227s

77ceab8ea5 cgroups: don't attach task to subsystem if migration failed
If a task has exited to the point it has called cgroup_exit() already,
then we can't migrate it to another cgroup anymore.

This can happen when we are attaching a task to a new cgroup between the
call to ->can_attach_task() on subsystems and the migration that is
eventually tried in cgroup_task_migrate().

In this case cgroup_task_migrate() returns -ESRCH and we don't want to
attach the task to the subsystems because the attachment to the new cgroup
itself failed.

Fix this by only calling ->attach_task() on the subsystems if the cgroup
migration succeeded.

According to this thread - https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/27/243 - RCU is
not sufficient to guarantee the tasklist is stable w.r.t.  de_thread and
exit.  Taking tasklist_lock for reading, instead of rcu_read_lock, ensures
proper exclusion.

2ce9738bac cgroupfs: use init_cred when populating new cgroupfs mount
We recently found that in some configurations SELinux was blocking the ability
for cgroupfs to be mounted.  The reason for this is because cgroupfs creates
files and directories during the get_sb() call and also uses lookup_one_len()
during that same get_sb() call.  This is a problem since the security
subsystem cannot initialize the superblock and the inodes in that filesystem
until after the get_sb() call returns.  Thus we leave the inodes in
an unitialized state during get_sb().  For the vast majority of filesystems
this is not an issue, but since cgroupfs uses lookup_on_len() it does
search permission checks on the directories in the path it walks.  Since the
inode security state is not set up SELinux does these checks as if the inodes
were 'unlabeled.'

Many 'normal' userspace process do not have permission to interact with
unlabeled inodes.  The solution presented here is to do the permission checks
of path walk and inode creation as the kernel rather than as the task that
called mount.  Since the kernel has permission to read/write/create
unlabeled inodes the get_sb() call will complete successfully and the SELinux
code will be able to initialize the superblock and those inodes created during
the get_sb() call.

This appears to be the same solution used by other filesystems such as devtmpfs
to solve the same issue and should thus have no negative impact on other LSMs
which currently work.

a77aea9201 cgroup: remove the ns_cgroup
The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:

  * cgroup creation is out-of-control
  * cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
  * it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
    namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
  * we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup

  The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
  where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
  The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
  the 'tasks' file.

This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html

The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.

This is a userspace-visible change.  Commit 45531757b4 ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal.  Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.

d846687d7f cgroups: use flex_array in attach_proc
Convert cgroup_attach_proc to use flex_array.

The cgroup_attach_proc implementation requires a pre-allocated array to
store task pointers to atomically move a thread-group, but asking for a
monolithic array with kmalloc() may be unreliable for very large groups.
Using flex_array provides the same functionality with less risk of
failure.

This is a post-patch for cgroup-procs-write.patch.

Add functionality that enables users to move all threads in a threadgroup
at once to a cgroup by writing the tgid to the 'cgroup.procs' file.  This
current implementation makes use of a per-threadgroup rwsem that's taken
for reading in the fork() path to prevent newly forking threads within the
threadgroup from "escaping" while the move is in progress.

f780bdb7c1 cgroups: add per-thread subsystem callbacks
Add cgroup subsystem callbacks for per-thread attachment in atomic contexts

Add can_attach_task(), pre_attach(), and attach_task() as new callbacks
for cgroups's subsystem interface.  Unlike can_attach and attach, these
are for per-thread operations, to be called potentially many times when
attaching an entire threadgroup.

Also, the old "bool threadgroup" interface is removed, as replaced by
this.  All subsystems are modified for the new interface - of note is
cpuset, which requires from/to nodemasks for attach to be globally scoped
(though per-cpuset would work too) to persist from its pre_attach to
attach_task and attach.

This is a pre-patch for cgroup-procs-writable.patch.

8d2587970b cgroups: if you list_empty() a head then don't list_del() it
list_del() leaves poison in the prev and next pointers.  The next
list_empty() will compare those poisons, and say the list isn't empty.
Any list operations that assume the node is on a list because of such a
check will be fooled into dereferencing poison.  One needs to INIT the
node after the del, and fortunately there's already a wrapper for that -
list_del_init().

Some of the dels are followed by deallocations, so can be ignored, and one
can be merged with an add to make a move.  Apart from that, I erred on the
side of caution in making nodes list_empty()-queriable.

e5d1367f17 perf: Add cgroup support
This kernel patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on
container groups (cgroups). This is for use in per-cpu mode only.

The cgroup to monitor is passed as a file descriptor in the pid
argument to the syscall. The file descriptor must be opened to
the cgroup name in the cgroup filesystem. For instance, if the
cgroup name is foo and cgroupfs is mounted in /cgroup, then the
file descriptor is opened to /cgroup/foo. Cgroup mode is
activated by passing PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP in the flags argument
to the syscall.

For instance to measure in cgroup foo on CPU1 assuming
cgroupfs is mounted under /cgroup:

struct perf_event_attr attr;
int cgroup_fd, fd;

cgroup_fd = open("/cgroup/foo", O_RDONLY);
fd = perf_event_open(&attr, cgroup_fd, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP);
close(cgroup_fd);

fb045adb99 fs: dcache reduce branches in lookup path
Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry
flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them.
This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
have d_op but not the particular operation.

Patched with:

git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

dc0474be3e fs: dcache rationalise dget variants
dget_locked was a shortcut to avoid the lazy lru manipulation when we already
held dcache_lock (lru manipulation was relatively cheap at that point).
However, how that the lru lock is an innermost one, we never hold it at any
caller, so the lock cost can now be avoided. We already have well working lazy
dcache LRU, so it should be fine to defer LRU manipulations to scan time.
