cpuset: consider dying css as offline

2017-06-26T02:02:19+00:00

[ Upstream commit 41c25707d21716826e3c1f60967f5550610ec1c9 ]

In most cases, a cgroup controller don't care about the liftimes of
cgroups.  For the controller, a css becomes online when ->css_online()
is called on it and offline when ->css_offline() is called.

However, cpuset is special in that the user interface it exposes cares
whether certain cgroups exist or not.  Combined with the RCU delay
between cgroup removal and css offlining, this can lead to user
visible behavior oddities where operations which should succeed after
cgroup removals fail for some time period.  The effects of cgroup
removals are delayed when seen from userland.

This patch adds css_is_dying() which tests whether offline is pending
and updates is_cpuset_online() so that the function returns false also
while offline is pending.  This gets rid of the userland visible
delays.

cgroup: separate out include/linux/cgroup-defs.h

2016-02-23T05:49:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit b4a04ab7a37b490cad48e69abfe14288cacb669c ]

From 2d728f74bfc071df06773e2fd7577dd5dab6425d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

This patch separates out cgroup-defs.h from cgroup.h which has grown a
lot of dependencies.  cgroup-defs.h currently only contains constant
and type definitions and can be used to break circular include
dependency.  While moving, definitions are reordered so that
cgroup-defs.h has consistent logical structure.

This patch is pure reorganization.

mm: memcontrol: take a css reference for each charged page

2014-12-11T01:41:05+00:00

Charges currently pin the css indirectly by playing tricks during
css_offline(): user pages stall the offlining process until all of them
have been reparented, whereas kmemcg acquires a keep-alive reference if
outstanding kernel pages are detected at that point.

In preparation for removing all this complexity, make the pinning explicit
and acquire a css references for every charged page.

cgroup: implement cgroup_get_e_css()

2014-11-18T07:49:52+00:00

Implement cgroup_get_e_css() which finds and gets the effective css
for the specified cgroup and subsystem combination.  This function
always returns a valid pinned css.  This will be used by cgroup
writeback support.

While at it, add comment to cgroup_e_css() to explain why that
function is different from cgroup_get_e_css() and has to test
cgrp->child_subsys_mask instead of cgroup_css(cgrp, ss).

cgroup: add cgroup_subsys->css_e_css_changed()

2014-11-18T07:49:51+00:00

Add a new cgroup_subsys operatoin ->css_e_css_changed().  This is
invoked if any of the effective csses seen from the css's cgroup may
have changed.  This will be used to implement cgroup writeback
support.

cgroup: add cgroup_subsys->css_released()

2014-11-18T07:49:51+00:00

Add a new cgroup subsys callback css_released().  This is called when
the reference count of the css (cgroup_subsys_state) reaches zero
before RCU scheduling free.
