A couple controllers want to determine whether two cgroups are in ancestor/descendant relationship. As it's more likely that the descendant is the primary subject of interest and there are other operations focusing on the descendants, let's ask is_descendent rather than is_ancestor. Implementation is trivial as the previous patch guarantees that all ancestors of a cgroup stay accessible as long as the cgroup is accessible. tj: Removed depth optimization, renamed from cgroup_is_ancestor(), rewrote descriptions.

Suppose we rmdir a cgroup and there're still css refs, this cgroup won't be freed. Then we rmdir the parent cgroup, and the parent is freed immediately due to css ref draining to 0. Now it would be a disaster if the still-alive child cgroup tries to access its parent. Make sure this won't happen.

The bind() method of cgroup_subsys is not used in any of the controllers (cpuset, freezer, blkio, net_cls, memcg, net_prio, devices, perf, hugetlb, cpu and cpuacct) tj: Removed the entry on ->bind() from Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt.

We don't want controllers to assume that the information is officially available and do funky things with it. The only user is task_subsys_state_check() which uses it to verify RCU access context. We can move cgroup_lock_is_held() inside CONFIG_PROVE_RCU but that doesn't add meaningful protection compared to conditionally exposing cgroup_mutex. Remove cgroup_lock_is_held(), export cgroup_mutex iff CONFIG_PROVE_RCU and use lockdep_is_held() directly on the mutex in task_subsys_state_check(). While at it, add parentheses around macro arguments in task_subsys_state_check(). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>

Now that all external cgroup_lock() users are gone, we can finally unexport the locking interface and prevent future abuse of cgroup_mutex. Make cgroup_[un]lock() and cgroup_lock_live_group() static. Also, cgroup_attach_task() doesn't have any user left and can't be used without locking interface anyway. Make it static too.

When a cpuset becomes empty (no CPU or memory), its tasks are transferred with the nearest ancestor with execution resources. This is implemented using cgroup_scan_tasks() with a callback which grabs cgroup_mutex and invokes cgroup_attach_task() on each task. Both cgroup_mutex and cgroup_attach_task() are scheduled to be unexported. Implement cgroup_transfer_tasks() in cgroup proper which is essentially the same as move_member_tasks_to_cpuset() except that it takes cgroups instead of cpusets and @to comes before @from like normal functions with those arguments, and replace move_member_tasks_to_cpuset() with it.

As cgroup supports rename, it's unsafe to dereference dentry->d_name without proper vfs locks. Fix this by using cgroup_name() rather than dentry directly. Also open code memcg_cache_name because it is called only from kmem_cache_dup which frees the returned name right after kmem_cache_create_memcg makes a copy of it. Such a short-lived allocation doesn't make too much sense. So replace it by a static buffer as kmem_cache_dup is called with memcg_cache_mutex.

This patch makes exception changes to propagate down in hierarchy respecting when possible local exceptions. New exceptions allowing additional access to devices won't be propagated, but it'll be possible to add an exception to access all of part of the newly allowed device(s). New exceptions disallowing access to devices will be propagated down and the local group's exceptions will be revalidated for the new situation. Example: A / \ B group behavior exceptions A allow "b 8:* rwm", "c 116:1 rw" B deny "c 1:3 rwm", "c 116:2 rwm", "b 3:* rwm" If a new exception is added to group A: # echo "c 116:* r" > A/devices.deny it'll propagate down and after revalidating B's local exceptions, the exception "c 116:2 rwm" will be removed. In case parent's exceptions change and local exceptions are not allowed anymore, they'll be deleted. v7: - do not allow behavior change when the cgroup has children - update documentation v6: fixed issues pointed by Serge Hallyn - only copy parent's exceptions while propagating behavior if the local behavior is different - while propagating exceptions, do not clear and copy parent's: it'd be against the premise we don't propagate access to more devices v5: fixed issues pointed by Serge Hallyn - updated documentation - not propagating when an exception is written to devices.allow - when propagating a new behavior, clean the local exceptions list if they're for a different behavior v4: fixed issues pointed by Tejun Heo - separated function to walk the tree and collect valid propagation targets v3: fixed issues pointed by Tejun Heo - update documentation - move css_online/css_offline changes to a new patch - use cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() instead of own descendant walk - move exception_copy rework to a separared patch - move exception_clean rework to a separated patch v2: fixed issues pointed by Tejun Heo - instead of keeping the local settings that won't apply anymore, remove them Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Aristeu Rozanski <aris@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Allocate resources and change behavior only when online. This is needed in order to determine if a node is suitable for hierarchy propagation or if it's being removed. Locking: Both functions take devcgroup_mutex to make changes to device_cgroup structure. Hierarchy propagation will also take devcgroup_mutex before walking the tree while walking the tree itself is protected by rcu lock.

Currently may_access() is only able to verify if an exception is valid for the current cgroup, which has the same behavior.

The 3rd parameter of flex_array_prealloc() is the number of elements, not the index of the last element. The effect of the bug is, when opening cgroup.procs, a flex array will be allocated and all elements of the array is allocated with GFP_KERNEL flag, but the last one is GFP_ATOMIC, and if we fail to allocate memory for it, it'll trigger a BUG_ON().

When we open cgroup.procs, we'll allocate an buffer and store all tasks' tgid in it, and then duplicate entries will be stripped. If that results in a much smaller pid list, we'll re-allocate a smaller buffer. But we've already sucessfully allocated memory and reading the procs file is a short period and the memory will be freed very soon, so why bother to re-allocate memory.

We no longer fail rmdir() when there're still css refs, so we don't need to check css refs in check_for_release(). This also voids a bug. cgroup_has_css_refs() accesses subsys[i] without cgroup_mutex, so it can race with cgroup_unload_subsys(). cgroup_has_css_refs() ... if (ss == NULL || ss->root != cgrp->root) if ss pointers to net_cls_subsys, and cls_cgroup module is unloaded right after the former check but before the latter, the memory that net_cls_subsys resides has become invalid.

rename() will change dentry->d_name. The result of this race can be worse than seeing partially rewritten name, but we might access a stale pointer because rename() will re-allocate memory to hold a longer name. As accessing dentry->name must be protected by dentry->d_lock or parent inode's i_mutex, while on the other hand cgroup-path() can be called with some irq-safe spinlocks held, we can't generate cgroup path using dentry->d_name. Alternatively we make a copy of dentry->d_name and save it in cgrp->name when a cgroup is created, and update cgrp->name at rename(). v5: use flexible array instead of zero-size array. v4: - allocate root_cgroup_name and all root_cgroup->name points to it. - add cgroup_name() wrapper. v3: use kfree_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu() in user-visible path. v2: make cgrp->name RCU safe.
