cpu_hotplug_begin() must be always called under cpu_add_remove_lock, this means that only one process can be cpu_hotplug.active_writer. So we don't need the cpu_hotplug.writer_queue, we can wake up the ->active_writer directly. Also, fix the comment. Signed-off-by:

Oleg Nesterov authored
When cpu_populated_map was introduced, it was supposed that cwq->thread can survive after CPU_DEAD, that is why we never shrink cpu_populated_map. This is not very nice, we can safely remove the already dead CPU from the map. The only required change is that destroy_workqueue() must hold the hotplug lock until it destroys all cwq->thread's, to protect the cpu_populated_map. We could make the local copy of cpu mask and drop the lock, but sizeof(cpumask_t) may be very large. Also, fix the comment near queue_work(). Unless _cpu_down() happens we do guarantee the cpu-affinity of the work_struct, and we have users which rely on this. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: repair comment] Signed-off-by:

This flag provides the hardwalling properties of mem_exclusive, without enforcing the exclusivity. Either mem_hardwall or mem_exclusive is sufficient to prevent GFP_KERNEL allocations from passing outside the cpuset's assigned nodes. Signed-off-by:

Currently the cpusets mem_exclusive flag is overloaded to mean both "no-overlapping" and "no GFP_KERNEL allocations outside this cpuset". These patches add a new mem_hardwall flag with just the allocation restriction part of the mem_exclusive semantics, without breaking backwards-compatibility for those who continue to use just mem_exclusive. Additionally, the cgroup control file registration for cpusets is cleaned up to reduce boilerplate. This patch: This change tidies up the cpusets control file definitions, and reduces the amount of boilerplate required to add/change control files in the future. Signed-off-by:

On ia64, this kmalloc() requires order-4 pages. But this is not necessary to be physically contiguous. For big mem_cgroup, vmalloc is better. For small ones, kmalloc is used. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: simplification] Signed-off-by:

This patch makes the memory controller more responsive on my desktop. 1. Set all cached pages as inactive. We were by default marking all pages as active, thus forcing us to go through two passes for reclaiming pages 2. Remove congestion_wait(), since we already have that logic in do_try_to_free_pages() Signed-off-by:

remove_list/add_list uses page_cgroup_zoneinfo() in it. So, it's called twice before and after lock. mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(); lock(); mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(); .... unlock(); And address of mz never changes. This is not good. This patch fixes this behavior. Signed-off-by:

This is a very common requirement from people using the resource accounting facilities (not only memcgroup but also OpenVZ beancounters). They want to put the cgroup in an initial state without re-creating it. For example after re-configuring a group people want to observe how this new configuration fits the group needs without saving the previous failcnt value. Merge two resets into one mem_cgroup_reset() function to demonstrate how multiplexing work. Besides, I have plans to move the files, that correspond to res_counter to the res_counter.c file and somehow "import" them into controller. I don't know how to make it gracefully yet, but merging resets of max_usage and failcnt in one function will be there for sure. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by:

Move the memory controller data structure page_cgroup to its own slab cache. It saves space on the system, allocations are not necessarily pushed to order of 2 and should provide performance benefits. Users who disable the memory controller can also double check that the memory controller is not allocating page_cgroup's. NOTE: Hugh Dickins brought up the issue of whether we want to mark page_cgroup as __GFP_MOVABLE or __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. I don't think there is an easy answer at the moment. page_cgroup's are associated with user pages, they can be reclaimed once the user page has been reclaimed, so it might make sense to mark them as __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. For now, I am leaving the marking to default values that the slab allocator uses. Signed-off-by:

The resource counter is supposed to facilitate the resource accounting of arbitrary resource (and it already does this for memory controller). However, it is about to be used in other resources controllers (swap, kernel memory, networking, etc), so provide a doc describing how to work with it. This will eliminate all the possible future duplications in the appropriate controllers' docs. Fixed errors pointed out by Randy. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix documentation tpyo] Signed-off-by:

Remove the mem_cgroup member from mm_struct and instead adds an owner. This approach was suggested by Paul Menage. The advantage of this approach is that, once the mm->owner is known, using the subsystem id, the cgroup can be determined. It also allows several control groups that are virtually grouped by mm_struct, to exist independent of the memory controller i.e., without adding mem_cgroup's for each controller, to mm_struct. A new config option CONFIG_MM_OWNER is added and the memory resource controller selects this config option. This patch also adds cgroup callbacks to notify subsystems when mm->owner changes. The mm_cgroup_changed callback is called with the task_lock() of the new task held and is called just prior to changing the mm->owner. I am indebted to Paul Menage for the several reviews of this patchset and helping me make it lighter and simpler. This patch was tested on a powerpc box, it was compiled with both the MM_OWNER config turned on and off. After the thread group leader exits, it's moved to init_css_state by cgroup_exit(), thus all future charges from runnings threads would be redirected to the init_css_set's subsystem. Signed-off-by:

Introduce a read_seq() helper in cftype, which uses seq_file to print out lists. Use it in the devices cgroup. Also split devices.allow into two files, so now devices.deny and devices.allow are the ones to use to manipulate the whitelist, while devices.list outputs the cgroup's current whitelist.

We are at system boot and there is only 1 cgroup group (i,e, init_css_set), so we don't need to run through the css_set linked list. Neither do we need to run through the task list, since no processes have been created yet. Also referring to a comment in cgroup.h: struct css_set { ... /* * Set of subsystem states, one for each subsystem. This array * is immutable after creation apart from the init_css_set * during subsystem registration (at boot time). */ struct cgroup_subsys_state *subsys[CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT]; } Signed-off-by: -

When we attach a process to a different cgroup, the css_set linked-list will be run through to find a suitable existing css_set to use. This patch implements a hash table for better performance. The following benchmarks have been tested: For N in 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500, 1000, create N cgroups with one sleeping task in each, and then move an additional task through each cgroup in turn. Here is a test result: N Loop orig - Time(s) hash - Time(s) ---------------------------------------------- 1 10000 1.201231728 1.196311177 5 2000 1.065743872 1.040566424 10 1000 0.991054735 0.986876440 50 200 0.976554203 0.969608733 100 100 0.998504680 0.969218270 500 20 1.157347764 0.962602963 1000 10 1.619521852 1.085140172 Signed-off-by:

Implement a cgroup to track and enforce open and mknod restrictions on device files. A device cgroup associates a device access whitelist with each cgroup. A whitelist entry has 4 fields. 'type' is a (all), c (char), or b (block). 'all' means it applies to all types and all major and minor numbers. Major and minor are either an integer or * for all. Access is a composition of r (read), w (write), and m (mknod). The root device cgroup starts with rwm to 'all'. A child devcg gets a copy of the parent. Admins can then remove devices from the whitelist or add new entries. A child cgroup can never receive a device access which is denied its parent. However when a device access is removed from a parent it will not also be removed from the child(ren). An entry is added using devices.allow, and removed using devices.deny. For instance echo 'c 1:3 mr' > /cgroups/1/devices.allow allows cgroup 1 to read and mknod the device usually known as /dev/null. Doing echo a > /cgroups/1/devices.deny will remove the default 'a *:* mrw' entry. CAP_SYS_ADMIN is needed to change permissions or move another task to a new cgroup. A cgroup may not be granted more permissions than the cgroup's parent has. Any task can move itself between cgroups. This won't be sufficient, but we can decide the best way to adequately restrict movement later.

This adds support for OLPC XO hardware. Open Firmware on XOs don't contain the VSA, so it is necessary to emulate the PCI BARs in the kernel.
