There could be cases where controllers want to do initialization operations which may fail from ->post_create(). This patch makes ->post_create() return -errno to indicate failure and online_css() relay such failures.

cgroup_create() was ignoring failure of cgroupfs files. Update it such that, if file creation fails, it rolls back by calling cgroup_destroy_locked() and returns failure. Note that error out goto labels are renamed. The labels are a bit confusing but will become better w/ later cgroup operation renames.

All cgroup directory i_mutexes nest outside cgroup_mutex; however, new directory creation is a special case. A new cgroup directory is created while holding cgroup_mutex. Populating the new directory requires both the new directory's i_mutex and cgroup_mutex. Because all directory i_mutexes nest outside cgroup_mutex, grabbing both requires releasing cgroup_mutex first, which isn't a good idea as the new cgroup isn't yet ready to be manipulated by other cgroup opreations. This is worked around by grabbing the new directory's i_mutex while holding cgroup_mutex before making it visible. As there's no other user at that point, grabbing the i_mutex under cgroup_mutex can't lead to deadlock. cgroup_create_file() was using I_MUTEX_CHILD to tell lockdep not to worry about the reverse locking order; however, this creates pseudo locking dependency cgroup_mutex -> I_MUTEX_CHILD, which isn't true - all directory i_mutexes are still nested outside cgroup_mutex. This pseudo locking dependency can lead to spurious lockdep warnings. Use mutex_trylock() instead. This will always succeed and lockdep doesn't create any locking dependency for it.

Now that cgroup_unload_subsys() can tell whether the root css is online or not, we can safely call cgroup_unload_subsys() after idr init failure in cgroup_load_subsys(). Replace the manual unrolling and invoke cgroup_unload_subsys() on failure. This drops cgroup_mutex inbetween but should be safe as the subsystem will fail try_module_get() and thus can't be mounted inbetween. As this means that cgroup_unload_subsys() can be called before css_sets are rehashed, remove BUG_ON() on %NULL css_set->subsys[] from cgroup_unload_subsys().

New helpers on/offline_css() respectively wrap ->post_create() and ->pre_destroy() invocations. online_css() sets CSS_ONLINE after ->post_create() is complete and offline_css() invokes ->pre_destroy() iff CSS_ONLINE is set and clears it while also handling the temporary dropping of cgroup_mutex. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change at the moment but will be used to improve cgroup_create() failure path and allow ->post_create() to fail.

* If idr init fails, cgroup_load_subsys() cleared dummytop->subsys[] before calilng ->destroy() making CSS inaccessible to the callback, and didn't unlink ss->sibling. As no modular controller uses ->use_id, this doesn't cause any actual problems. * cgroup_unload_subsys() was forgetting to free idr, call ->pre_destroy() and clear ->active. As there currently is no modular controller which uses ->use_id, ->pre_destroy() or ->active, this doesn't cause any actual problems.

cgroup->dentry is marked and used as a RCU pointer; however, it isn't one - the final dentry put doesn't go through call_rcu(). cgroup and dentry share the same RCU freeing rule via synchronize_rcu() in cgroup_diput() (kfree_rcu() used on cgrp is unnecessary). If cgrp is accessible under RCU read lock, so is its dentry and dereferencing cgrp->dentry doesn't need any further RCU protection or annotation. While not being accurate, before the previous patch, the RCU accessors served a purpose as memory barriers - cgroup->dentry used to be assigned after the cgroup was made visible to cgroup_path(), so the assignment and dereferencing in cgroup_path() needed the memory barrier pair. Now that list_add_tail_rcu() happens after cgroup->dentry is assigned, this no longer is necessary. Remove the now unnecessary and misleading RCU annotations from cgroup->dentry. To make up for the removal of rcu_dereference_check() in cgroup_path(), add an explicit rcu_lockdep_assert(), which asserts the dereference rule of @cgrp, not cgrp->dentry.

While creating a new cgroup, cgroup_create() links the newly allocated cgroup into various places before trying to create its directory. Because cgroup life-cycle is tied to the vfs objects, this makes it impossible to use cgroup_rmdir() for rolling back creation - the removal logic depends on having full vfs objects. This patch moves directory creation above linking and collect linking operations to one place. This allows directory creation failure to share error exit path with css allocation failures and any failure sites afterwards (to be added later) can use cgroup_rmdir() logic to undo creation. Note that this also makes the memory barriers around cgroup->dentry, which currently is misleadingly using RCU operations, unnecessary. This will be handled in the next patch. While at it, locking BUG_ON() on i_mutex is converted to lockdep_assert_held(). v2: Patch originally removed %NULL dentry check in cgroup_path(); however, Li pointed out that this patch doesn't make it unnecessary as ->create() may call cgroup_path().

Up until now, cgroup_freezer didn't implement hierarchy properly. cgroups could be arranged in hierarchy but it didn't make any difference in how each cgroup_freezer behaved. They all operated separately. This patch implements proper hierarchy support. If a cgroup is frozen, all its descendants are frozen. A cgroup is thawed iff it and all its ancestors are THAWED. freezer.self_freezing shows the current freezing state for the cgroup itself. freezer.parent_freezing shows whether the cgroup is freezing because any of its ancestors is freezing. freezer_post_create() locks the parent and new cgroup and inherits the parent's state and freezer_change_state() applies new state top-down using cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() which guarantees that no child can escape its parent's state. update_if_frozen() uses cgroup_for_each_descendant_post() to propagate frozen states bottom-up. Synchronization could be coarser and easier by using a single mutex to protect all hierarchy operations. Finer grained approach was used because it wasn't too difficult for cgroup_freezer and I think it's beneficial to have an example implementation and cgroup_freezer is rather simple and can serve a good one. As this makes cgroup_freezer properly hierarchical, freezer_subsys.broken_hierarchy marking is removed. Note that this patch changes userland visible behavior - freezing a cgroup now freezes all its descendants too. This behavior change is intended and has been warned via .broken_hierarchy. v2: Michal spotted a bug in freezer_change_state() - descendants were inheriting from the wrong ancestor. Fixed. v3: Documentation/cgroups/freezer-subsystem.txt updated. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz>

A cgroup is online and visible to iteration between ->post_create() and ->pre_destroy(). This patch introduces CGROUP_FREEZER_ONLINE and toggles it from the newly added freezer_post_create() and freezer_pre_destroy() while holding freezer->lock such that a cgroup_freezer can be reilably distinguished to be online. This will be used by full hierarchy support. ONLINE test is added to freezer_apply_state() but it currently doesn't make any difference as freezer_write() can only be called for an online cgroup. Adjusting system_freezing_cnt on destruction is moved from freezer_destroy() to the new freezer_pre_destroy() for consistency. This patch doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior change.

freezer->state was an enum value - one of THAWED, FREEZING and FROZEN. As the scheduled full hierarchy support requires more than one freezing condition, switch it to mask of flags. If FREEZING is not set, it's thawed. FREEZING is set if freezing or frozen. If frozen, both FREEZING and FROZEN are set. Now that tasks can be attached to an already frozen cgroup, this also makes freezing condition checks more natural. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.

Currently, cgroup doesn't provide any generic helper for walking a given cgroup's children or descendants. This patch adds the following three macros. * cgroup_for_each_child() - walk immediate children of a cgroup. * cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() - visit all descendants of a cgroup in pre-order tree traversal. * cgroup_for_each_descendant_post() - visit all descendants of a cgroup in post-order tree traversal. All three only require the user to hold RCU read lock during traversal. Verifying that each iterated cgroup is online is the responsibility of the user. When used with proper synchronization, cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() can be used to propagate state updates to descendants in reliable way. See comments for details. v2: s/config/state/ in commit message and comments per Michal. More documentation on synchronization rules.

Currently, there's no way for a controller to find out whether a new cgroup finished all ->create() allocatinos successfully and is considered "live" by cgroup. This becomes a problem later when we add generic descendants walking to cgroup which can be used by controllers as controllers don't have a synchronization point where it can synchronize against new cgroups appearing in such walks. This patch adds ->post_create(). It's called after all ->create() succeeded and the cgroup is linked into the generic cgroup hierarchy. This plays the counterpart of ->pre_destroy(). When used in combination with the to-be-added generic descendant iterators, ->post_create() can be used to implement reliable state inheritance. It will be explained with the descendant iterators. v2: Added a paragraph about its future use w/ descendant iterators per Michal. v3: Forgot to add ->post_create() invocation to cgroup_load_subsys().

CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR is another kludge which was added to make cgroup destruction rollback somewhat working. cgroup_rmdir() used to drain CSS references and CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR and the associated waitqueue and helpers were used to allow the task performing rmdir to wait for the next relevant event. Unfortunately, the wait is visible to controllers too and the mechanism got exposed to memcg by 88703267 ("cgroup avoid permanent sleep at rmdir"). Now that the draining and retries are gone, CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR is unnecessary. Remove it and all the mechanisms supporting it. Note that memcontrol.c changes are essentially revert of 88703267 ("cgroup avoid permanent sleep at rmdir").

Because ->pre_destroy() could fail and can't be called under cgroup_mutex, cgroup destruction did something very ugly. 1. Grab cgroup_mutex and verify it can be destroyed; fail otherwise. 2. Release cgroup_mutex and call ->pre_destroy(). 3. Re-grab cgroup_mutex and verify it can still be destroyed; fail otherwise. 4. Continue destroying. In addition to being ugly, it has been always broken in various ways. For example, memcg ->pre_destroy() expects the cgroup to be inactive after it's done but tasks can be attached and detached between #2 and #3 and the conditions that memcg verified in ->pre_destroy() might no longer hold by the time control reaches #3. Now that ->pre_destroy() is no longer allowed to fail. We can switch to the following. 1. Grab cgroup_mutex and verify it can be destroyed; fail otherwise. 2. Deactivate CSS's and mark the cgroup removed thus preventing any further operations which can invalidate the verification from #1. 3. Release cgroup_mutex and call ->pre_destroy(). 4. Re-grab cgroup_mutex and continue destroying. After this change, controllers can safely assume that ->pre_destroy() will only be called only once for a given cgroup and, once ->pre_destroy() is called, the cgroup will stay dormant till it's destroyed. This removes the only reason ->pre_destroy() can fail - new task being attached or child cgroup being created inbetween. Error out path is removed and ->pre_destroy() invocation is open coded in cgroup_rmdir(). v2: cgroup_call_pre_destroy() removal moved to this patch per Michal. Commit message updated per Glauber.

This patch makes cgroup_create() fail if @parent is marked removed. This is to prepare for further updates to cgroup_rmdir() path. Note that this change isn't strictly necessary. cgroup can only be created via mkdir and the removed marking and dentry removal happen without releasing cgroup_mutex, so cgroup_create() can never race with cgroup_rmdir(). Even after the scheduled updates to cgroup_rmdir(), cgroup_mkdir() and cgroup_rmdir() are synchronized by i_mutex rendering the added liveliness check unnecessary. Do it anyway such that locking is contained inside cgroup proper and we don't get nasty surprises if we ever grow another caller of cgroup_create().

CSS_REMOVED is one of the several contortions which were necessary to support css reference draining on cgroup removal. All css->refcnts which need draining should be deactivated and verified to equal zero atomically w.r.t. css_tryget(). If any one isn't zero, all refcnts needed to be re-activated and css_tryget() shouldn't fail in the process. This was achieved by letting css_tryget() busy-loop until either the refcnt is reactivated (failed removal attempt) or CSS_REMOVED is set (committing to removal). Now that css refcnt draining is no longer used, there's no need for atomic rollback mechanism. css_tryget() simply can look at the reference count and fail if it's deactivated - it's never getting re-activated. This patch removes CSS_REMOVED and updates __css_tryget() to fail if the refcnt is deactivated. As deactivation and removal are a single step now, they no longer need to be protected against css_tryget() happening from irq context. Remove local_irq_disable/enable() from cgroup_rmdir(). Note that this removes css_is_removed() whose only user is VM_BUG_ON() in memcontrol.c. We can replace it with a check on the refcnt but given that the only use case is a debug assert, I think it's better to simply unexport it. v2: Comment updated and explanation on local_irq_disable/enable() added per Michal Hocko.

2ef37d3f ("memcg: Simplify mem_cgroup_force_empty_list error handling") removed the last user of __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs. This patch removes __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs and mechanisms to support it. * Conditionals dependent on __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs removed. * cgroup_clear_css_refs() can no longer fail. All that needs to be done are deactivating refcnts, setting CSS_REMOVED and putting the base reference on each css. Remove cgroup_clear_css_refs() and the failure path, and open-code the loops into cgroup_rmdir(). This patch keeps the two for_each_subsys() loops separate while open coding them. They can be merged now but there are scheduled changes which need them to be separate, so keep them separate to reduce the amount of churn. local_irq_save/restore() from cgroup_clear_css_refs() are replaced with local_irq_disable/enable() for simplicity. This is safe as cgroup_rmdir() is always called with IRQ enabled. Note that this IRQ switching is necessary to ensure that css_tryget() isn't called from IRQ context on the same CPU while lower context is between CSS deactivation and setting CSS_REMOVED as css_tryget() would hang forever in such cases waiting for CSS to be re-activated or CSS_REMOVED set. This will go away soon. v2: cgroup_call_pre_destroy() removal dropped per Michal. Commit message updated to explain local_irq_disable/enable() conversion.
