* memcg: fix OOM killer under memcgKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch tries to fix OOM Killer problems caused by hierarchy. Now, memcg itself has OOM KILL function (in oom_kill.c) and tries to kill a task in memcg. But, when hierarchy is used, it's broken and correct task cannot be killed. For example, in following cgroup /groupA/ hierarchy=1, limit=1G, 01 nolimit 02 nolimit All tasks' memory usage under /groupA, /groupA/01, groupA/02 is limited to groupA's 1Gbytes but OOM Killer just kills tasks in groupA. This patch provides makes the bad process be selected from all tasks under hierarchy. BTW, currently, oom_jiffies is updated against groupA in above case. oom_jiffies of tree should be updated. To see how oom_jiffies is used, please check mem_cgroup_oom_called() callers.

* cgroups: don't change release_agent when remount failedLi Zefan2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remount can fail in either case: - wrong mount options is specified, or option 'noprefix' is changed. - a to-be-added subsys is already mounted/active. When using remount to change 'release_agent', for the above former failure case, remount will return errno with release_agent unchanged, but for the latter case, remount will return EBUSY with relase_agent changed, which is unexpected I think: # mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /cgrp1 # mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,release_agent=agent1 yyy /cgrp2 # cat /cgrp2/release_agent agent1 # mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpuset,noprefix,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2 mount: /cgrp2 not mounted already, or bad option # cat /cgrp2/release_agent agent1 <-- ok # mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpu,cpuset,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2 mount: /cgrp2 is busy # cat /cgrp2/release_agent agent2 <-- unexpected!

* cgroups: show correct file modeLi Zefan2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have some read-only files and write-only files, but currently they are all set to 0644, which is counter-intuitive and cause trouble for some cgroup tools like libcgroup. This patch adds 'mode' to struct cftype to allow cgroup subsys to set it's own files' file mode, and for the most cases cft->mode can be default to 0 and cgroup will figure out proper mode.

* cgroup: fix frequent -EBUSY at rmdirKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In following situation, with memory subsystem, /groupA use_hierarchy==1 /01 some tasks /02 some tasks /03 some tasks /04 empty When tasks under 01/02/03 hit limit on /groupA, hierarchical reclaim is triggered and the kernel walks tree under groupA. In this case, rmdir /groupA/04 fails with -EBUSY frequently because of temporal refcnt from the kernel. In general. cgroup can be rmdir'd if there are no children groups and no tasks. Frequent fails of rmdir() is not useful to users. (And the reason for -EBUSY is unknown to users.....in most cases) This patch tries to modify above behavior, by - retries if css_refcnt is got by someone. - add "return value" to pre_destroy() and allows subsystem to say "we're really busy!"

* cgroup: CSS ID supportKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2009-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch for Per-CSS(Cgroup Subsys State) ID and private hierarchy code. This patch attaches unique ID to each css and provides following. - css_lookup(subsys, id) returns pointer to struct cgroup_subysys_state of id. - css_get_next(subsys, id, rootid, depth, foundid) returns the next css under "root" by scanning When cgroup_subsys->use_id is set, an id for css is maintained. The cgroup framework only parepares - css_id of root css for subsys - id is automatically attached at creation of css. - id is *not* freed automatically. Because the cgroup framework don't know lifetime of cgroup_subsys_state. free_css_id() function is provided. This must be called by subsys. There are several reasons to develop this. - Saving space .... For example, memcg's swap_cgroup is array of pointers to cgroup. But it is not necessary to be very fast. By replacing pointers(8bytes per ent) to ID (2byes per ent), we can reduce much amount of memory usage. - Scanning without lock. CSS_ID provides "scan id under this ROOT" function. By this, scanning css under root can be written without locks. ex) do { rcu_read_lock(); next = cgroup_get_next(subsys, id, root, &found); /* check sanity of next here */ css_tryget(); rcu_read_unlock(); id = found + 1 } while(...) Characteristics: - Each css has unique ID under subsys. - Lifetime of ID is controlled by subsys. - css ID contains "ID" and "Depth in hierarchy" and stack of hierarchy - Allowed ID is 1-65535, ID 0 is UNUSED ID. Design Choices: - scan-by-ID v.s. scan-by-tree-walk. As /proc's pid scan does, scan-by-ID is robust when scanning is done by following kind of routine. scan -> rest a while(release a lock) -> conitunue from interrupted memcg's hierarchical reclaim does this. - When subsys->use_id is set, # of css in the system is limited to 65535.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ns_proxy cgroup allows moving processes to child cgroups only one level deep at a time. This commit relaxes this restriction and makes it possible to attach tasks directly to grandchild cgroups, e.g.: ($pid is in the root cgroup) echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks Previously this operation would fail with -EPERM and would have to be performed as two steps: echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/tasks echo $pid > /cgroup/CG1/CG2/tasks Also, the target cgroup no longer needs to be empty to move a task there.

* epoll keyed wakeups: add __wake_up_locked_key() and __wake_up_sync_key()Davide Libenzi2009-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patchset introduces wakeup hints for some of the most popular (from epoll POV) devices, so that epoll code can avoid spurious wakeups on its waiters. The problem with epoll is that the callback-based wakeups do not, ATM, carry any information about the events the wakeup is related to. So the only choice epoll has (not being able to call f_op->poll() from inside the callback), is to add the file* to a ready-list and resolve the real events later on, at epoll_wait() (or its own f_op->poll()) time. This can cause spurious wakeups, since the wake_up() itself might be for an event the caller is not interested into. The rate of these spurious wakeup can be pretty high in case of many network sockets being monitored. By allowing devices to report the events the wakeups refer to (at least the two major classes - POLLIN/POLLOUT), we are able to spare useless wakeups by proper handling inside the epoll's poll callback. Epoll will have in any case to call f_op->poll() on the file* later on, since the change to be done in order to have the full event set sent via wakeup, is too invasive for the way our f_op->poll() system works (the full event set is calculated inside the poll function - there are too many of them to even start thinking the change - also poll/select would need change too). Epoll is changed in a way that both devices which send event hints, and the ones that don't, are correctly handled. The former will gain some efficiency though. As a general rule for devices, would be to add an event mask by using key-aware wakeup macros, when making up poll wait queues. I tested it (together with the epoll's poll fix patch Andrew has in -mm) and wakeups for the supported devices are correctly filtered. Test program available here: http://www.xmailserver.org/epoll_test.c This patch: Nothing revolutionary here. Just using the available "key" that our wakeup core already support. The __wake_up_locked_key() was no brainer, since both __wake_up_locked() and __wake_up_locked_key() are thin wrappers around __wake_up_common(). The __wake_up_sync() function had a body, so the choice was between borrowing the body for __wake_up_sync_key() and calling it from __wake_up_sync(), or make an inline and calling it from both. I chose the former since in most archs it all resolves to "mov $0, REG; jmp ADDR".

Haven't tested this version as such, but it should be getting closer to merge worthy ;) -- After noticing some code in mm/filemap.c accidentally perform a __GFP_FS allocation when it should not have been, I thought it might be a good idea to try to catch this kind of thing with lockdep. I coded up a little idea that seems to work. Unfortunately the system has to actually be in __GFP_FS page reclaim, then take the lock, before it will mark it. But at least that might still be some orders of magnitude more common (and more debuggable) than an actual deadlock condition, so we have some improvement I hope (the concept is no less complete than discovery of a lock's interrupt contexts). I guess we could even do the same thing with __GFP_IO (normal reclaim), and even GFP_NOIO locks too... but filesystems will have the most locks and fiddly code paths, so let's start there and see how it goes. It *seems* to work.
