* CPU HOTPLUG: avoid hotadd when proper possible_map isn't specifiedKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | cpu-hot-add should be fail if cpu is not set in cpu_possible_map. If go ahead, the system will panic soon. Especially, arch which requires additional_cpus= parameter should handle this. Tested on ia64.

* hotplug cpu: migrate a task within its cpusetCliff Wickman2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a cpu is disabled, move_task_off_dead_cpu() is called for tasks that have been running on that cpu. Currently, such a task is migrated: 1) to any cpu on the same node as the disabled cpu, which is both online and among that task's cpus_allowed 2) to any cpu which is both online and among that task's cpus_allowed It is typical of a multithreaded application running on a large NUMA system to have its tasks confined to a cpuset so as to cluster them near the memory that they share. Furthermore, it is typical to explicitly place such a task on a specific cpu in that cpuset. And in that case the task's cpus_allowed includes only a single cpu. This patch would insert a preference to migrate such a task to some cpu within its cpuset (and set its cpus_allowed to its entire cpuset). With this patch, migrate the task to: 1) to any cpu on the same node as the disabled cpu, which is both online and among that task's cpus_allowed 2) to any online cpu within the task's cpuset 3) to any cpu which is both online and among that task's cpus_allowed In order to do this, move_task_off_dead_cpu() must make a call to cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked(), a new subset of cpuset_cpus_allowed(), that will not block. (name change - per Oleg's suggestion) Calls are made to cpuset_lock() and cpuset_unlock() in migration_call() to set the cpuset mutex during the whole migrate_live_tasks() and migrate_dead_tasks() procedure.

* Control groups: Replace "cont" with "cgrp" and other misc renamingPaul Menage2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace "cont" with "cgrp" and other misc renaming This patch finishes some of the names that got missed in the great "task containers" -> "control groups" rename. Primarily it renames the local variable "cont" to "cgrp" in a number of places, and renames the CONT_* enum members to CGRP_*. This patch is not intended to have any effect on the generated code; the output of "objdump -d kernel/cgroup.o" is unchanged.

* Use helpers to obtain task pid in printksPavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in the kernel. The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

* Isolate the explicit usage of signal->pgrpPavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The pgrp field is not used widely around the kernel so it is now marked as deprecated with appropriate comment. The initialization of INIT_SIGNALS is trimmed because a) they are set to 0 automatically; b) gcc cannot properly initialize two anonymous (the second one is the one with the session) unions. In this particular case to make it compile we'd have to add some field initialized right before the .pgrp. This is the same patch as the 1ec320afdc9552c92191d5f89fcd1ebe588334ca one (from Cedric), but for the pgrp field. Some progress report: We have to deprecate the pid, tgid, session and pgrp fields on struct task_struct and struct signal_struct. The session and pgrp are already deprecated. The tgid value is close to being such - the worst known usage in in fs/locks.c and audit code. The pid field deprecation is mainly blocked by numerous printk-s around the kernel that print the tsk->pid to log.

Other than subtle improvements in the consistency of identifying white space at the beginning and end of passed in masks, this doesn't make any visible difference in behaviour.

* cpuset sched_load_balance flagPaul Jackson2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new per-cpuset flag called 'sched_load_balance'. When enabled in a cpuset (the default value) it tells the kernel scheduler that the scheduler should provide the normal load balancing on the CPUs in that cpuset, sometimes moving tasks from one CPU to a second CPU if the second CPU is less loaded and if that task is allowed to run there. When disabled (write "0" to the file) then it tells the kernel scheduler that load balancing is not required for the CPUs in that cpuset. Now even if this flag is disabled for some cpuset, the kernel may still have to load balance some or all the CPUs in that cpuset, if some overlapping cpuset has its sched_load_balance flag enabled. If there are some CPUs that are not in any cpuset whose sched_load_balance flag is enabled, the kernel scheduler will not load balance tasks to those CPUs. Moreover the kernel will partition the 'sched domains' (non-overlapping sets of CPUs over which load balancing is attempted) into the finest granularity partition that it can find, while still keeping any two CPUs that are in the same shed_load_balance enabled cpuset in the same element of the partition. This serves two purposes: 1) It provides a mechanism for real time isolation of some CPUs, and 2) it can be used to improve performance on systems with many CPUs by supporting configurations in which load balancing is not done across all CPUs at once, but rather only done in several smaller disjoint sets of CPUs. This mechanism replaces the earlier overloading of the per-cpuset flag 'cpu_exclusive', which overloading was removed in an earlier patch: cpuset-remove-sched-domain-hooks-from-cpusets See further the Documentation and comments in the code itself.

* Isolate some explicit usage of task->tgidPavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With pid namespaces this field is now dangerous to use explicitly, so hide it behind the helpers. Also the pid and pgrp fields o task_struct and signal_struct are to be deprecated. Unfortunately this patch cannot be sent right now as this leads to tons of warnings, so start isolating them, and deprecate later. Actually the p->tgid == pid has to be changed to has_group_leader_pid(), but Oleg pointed out that in case of posix cpu timers this is the same, and thread_group_leader() is more preferable.

* pid namespaces: changes to show virtual ids to userPavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids. The idea is: - all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call; - when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids; - when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this task's namespace the global one is to be used; - when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

This solves raced in proc_flush_task, etc. with the proc_mnt switching from NULL to not-NULL. The initialization is done after the init's pid is created and hashed to make proc_get_sb() finr it and get for root inode. Sice the namespace holds the vfsmnt, vfsmnt holds the superblock and the superblock holds the namespace we must explicitly break this circle to destroy all the stuff. This is done after the init of the namespace dies. Running a few steps forward - when init exits it will kill all its children, so no proc_mnt will be needed after its death.

* pid namespaces: allow cloning of new namespacePavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When clone() is invoked with CLONE_NEWPID, create a new pid namespace and then create a new struct pid for the new process. Allocate pid_t's for the new process in the new pid namespace and all ancestor pid namespaces. Make the newly cloned process the session and process group leader. Since the active pid namespace is special and expected to be the first entry in pid->upid_list, preserve the order of pid namespaces. The size of 'struct pid' is dependent on the the number of pid namespaces the process exists in, so we use multiple pid-caches'. Only one pid cache is created during system startup and this used by processes that exist only in init_pid_ns. When a process clones its pid namespace, we create additional pid caches as necessary and use the pid cache to allocate 'struct pids' for that depth. Note, that with this patch the newly created namespace won't work, since the rest of the kernel still uses global pids, but this is to be fixed soon. Init pid namespace still works.

* pid namespaces: prepare proc_flust_task() to flush entries from multiple ↵Pavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | proc trees The first part is trivial - we just make the proc_flush_task() to operate on arbitrary vfsmount with arbitrary ids and pass the pid and global proc_mnt to it. The other change is more tricky: I moved the proc_flush_task() call in release_task() higher to address the following problem. When flushing task from many proc trees we need to know the set of ids (not just one pid) to find the dentries' names to flush. Thus we need to pass the task's pid to proc_flush_task() as struct pid is the only object that can provide all the pid numbers. But after __exit_signal() task has detached all his pids and this information is lost. This creates a tiny gap for proc_pid_lookup() to bring some dentries back to tree and keep them in hash (since pids are still alive before __exit_signal()) till the next shrink, but since proc_flush_task() does not provide a 100% guarantee that the dentries will be flushed, this is OK to do so.

* pid namespaces: move exit_task_namespaces()Pavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make task release its namespaces after it has reparented all his children to child_reaper, but before it notifies its parent about its death. The reason to release namespaces after reparenting is that when task exits it may send a signal to its parent (SIGCHLD), but if the parent has already exited its namespaces there will be no way to decide what pid to dever to him - parent can be from different namespace. The reason to release namespace before notifying the parent it that when task sends a SIGCHLD to parent it can call wait() on this taks and release it. But releasing the mnt namespace implies dropping of all the mounts in the mnt namespace and NFS expects the task to have valid sighand pointer. Thanks to Oleg for pointing out some races that can apear and helping with patches and fixes.

* pid namespaces: rework forget_original_parent()Oleg Nesterov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A pid namespace is a "view" of a particular set of tasks on the system. They work in a similar way to filesystem namespaces. A file (or a process) can be accessed in multiple namespaces, but it may have a different name in each. In a filesystem, this name might be /etc/passwd in one namespace, but /chroot/etc/passwd in another. For processes, a process may have pid 1234 in one namespace, but be pid 1 in another. This allows new pid namespaces to have basically arbitrary pids, and not have to worry about what pids exist in other namespaces. This is essential for checkpoint/restart where a restarted process's pid might collide with an existing process on the system's pid. In this particular implementation, pid namespaces have a parent-child relationship, just like processes. A process in a pid namespace may see all of the processes in the same namespace, as well as all of the processes in all of the namespaces which are children of its namespace. Processes may not, however, see others which are in their parent's namespace, but not in their own. The same goes for sibling namespaces. The know issue to be solved in the nearest future is signal handling in the namespace boundary. That is, currently the namespace's init is treated like an ordinary task that can be killed from within an namespace. Ideally, the signal handling by the namespace's init should have two sides: when signaling the init from its namespace, the init should look like a real init task, i.e. receive only those signals, that is explicitly wants to; when signaling the init from one of the parent namespaces, init should look like an ordinary task, i.e. receive any signal, only taking the general permissions into account. The pid namespace was developed by Pavel Emlyanov and Sukadev Bhattiprolu and we eventually came to almost the same implementation, which differed in some details. This set is based on Pavel's patches, but it includes comments and patches that from Sukadev. Many thanks to Oleg, who reviewed the patches, pointed out many BUGs and made valuable advises on how to make this set cleaner. This patch: We have to call exit_task_namespaces() only after the exiting task has reparented all his children and is sure that no other threads will reparent theirs for it. Why this is needed is explained in appropriate patch. This one only reworks the forget_original_parent() so that after calling this a task cannot be/become parent of any other task. We check PF_EXITING instead of ->exit_state while choosing the new parent. Note that tasklits_lock acts as a barrier, everyone who takes tasklist after us (when forget_original_parent() drops it) must see PF_EXITING. The other changes are just cleanups. They just move some code from exit_notify to forget_original_parent(). It is a bit silly to declare ptrace_dead in exit_notify(), take tasklist, pass ptrace_dead to forget_original_parent(), unlock-lock-unlock tasklist, and then use ptrace_dead.

* Make access to task's nsproxy lighterPavel Emelyanov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When someone wants to deal with some other taks's namespaces it has to lock the task and then to get the desired namespace if the one exists. This is slow on read-only paths and may be impossible in some cases. E.g. Oleg recently noticed a race between unshare() and the (sent for review in cgroups) pid namespaces - when the task notifies the parent it has to know the parent's namespace, but taking the task_lock() is impossible there - the code is under write locked tasklist lock. On the other hand switching the namespace on task (daemonize) and releasing the namespace (after the last task exit) is rather rare operation and we can sacrifice its speed to solve the issues above. The access to other task namespaces is proposed to be performed like this: rcu_read_lock(); nsproxy = task_nsproxy(tsk); if (nsproxy != NULL) { / * * work with the namespaces here * e.g. get the reference on one of them * / } / * * NULL task_nsproxy() means that this task is * almost dead (zombie) * / rcu_read_unlock(); This patch has passed the review by Eric and Oleg :) and, of course, tested.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check. Split it into is_global_init() and is_container_init(). A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1. A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace is the init_pid_ns. But rather than check the active pid namespace, compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance and remove dependence on the task_pid(). 2.6.21-mm2-pidns2: - [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc, ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With multiple pid namespaces, a process is known by some pid_t in every ancestor pid namespace. Every time the process forks, the child process also gets a pid_t in every ancestor pid namespace. While a process is visible in >=1 pid namespaces, it can see pid_t's in only one pid namespace. We call this pid namespace it's "active pid namespace", and it is always the youngest pid namespace in which the process is known. This patch defines and uses a wrapper to find the active pid namespace of a process. The implementation of the wrapper will be changed in when support for multiple pid namespaces are added. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - [Pavel Emelianov, Alexey Dobriyan] Back out the change to use task_active_pid_ns() in child_reaper() since task->nsproxy can be NULL during task exit (so child_reaper() continues to use init_pid_ns). to implement child_reaper() since init_pid_ns.child_reaper to implement child_reaper() since tsk->nsproxy can be NULL during exit. 2.6.21-rc6-mm1: - Rename task_pid_ns() to task_active_pid_ns() to reflect that a process can have multiple pid namespaces.

* pid namespaces: dynamic kmem cache allocator for pid namespacesPavel Emelianov2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add kmem_cache to pid_namespace to allocate pids from. Since both implementations expand the struct pid to carry more numerical values each namespace should have separate cache to store pids of different sizes. Each kmem cache is name "pid_<NR>", where <NR> is the number of numerical ids on the pid. Different namespaces with same level of nesting will have same caches. This patch has two FIXMEs that are to be fixed after we reach the consensus about the struct pid itself. The first one is that the namespace to free the pid from in free_pid() must be taken from pid. Now the init_pid_ns is used. The second FIXME is about the cache allocation. When we do know how long the object will be then we'll have to calculate this size in create_pid_cachep. Right now the sizeof(struct pid) value is used.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a task enters a new namespace via a clone() or unshare(), a new cgroup is created and the task moves into it. This version names cgroups which are automatically created using cgroup_clone() as "node_<pid>" where pid is the pid of the unsharing or cloned process. (Thanks Pavel for the idea) This is safe because if the process unshares again, it will create /cgroups/(...)/node_<pid>/node_<pid> The only possibilities (AFAICT) for a -EEXIST on unshare are 1. pid wraparound 2. a process fails an unshare, then tries again. Case 1 is unlikely enough that I ignore it (at least for now). In case 2, the node_<pid> will be empty and can be rmdir'ed to make the subsequent unshare() succeed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is inspired by the discussion at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/187 and implements per cgroup statistics as suggested by Andrew Morton in http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/263. The patch is on top of 2.6.21-mm1 with Paul's cgroups v9 patches (forward ported) This patch implements per cgroup statistics infrastructure and re-uses code from the taskstats interface. A new set of cgroup operations are registered with commands and attributes. It should be very easy to *extend* per cgroup statistics, by adding members to the cgroupstats structure. The current model for cgroupstats is a pull, a push model (to post statistics on interesting events), should be very easy to add. Currently user space requests for statistics by passing the cgroup file descriptor. Statistics about the state of all the tasks in the cgroup is returned to user space. TODO's/NOTE: This patch provides an infrastructure for implementing cgroup statistics. Based on the needs of each controller, we can incrementally add more statistics, event based support for notification of statistics, accumulation of taskstats into cgroup statistics in the future. Sample output # ./cgroupstats -C /cgroup/a sleeping 2, blocked 0, running 1, stopped 0, uninterruptible 0 # ./cgroupstats -C /cgroup/ sleeping 154, blocked 0, running 0, stopped 0, uninterruptible 0 If the approach looks good, I'll enhance and post the user space utility for the same Feedback, comments, test results are always welcome!

* Task Control Groups: add cgroup_clone() interfacePaul Menage2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for cgroup_clone(), a way to create new cgroups intended to be used for systems such as namespace unsharing. A new subsystem callback, post_clone(), is added to allow subsystems to automatically configure cloned cgroups. Signed-off-by: Paul Menage <menage@google.com> Cc: Serge E.
