This patch replaces rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with
RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL)
The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a
structure is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure.
And in the case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to
initialize. So, rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted
to RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL)

cgroup_tree_mutex should nest above the kernfs active_ref protection;
however, cgroup_create() and cgroup_rename() were grabbing
cgroup_tree_mutex while under kernfs active_ref protection. This has
actualy possibility to lead to deadlocks in case these operations race
against cgroup_rmdir() which invokes kernfs_remove() on directory
kernfs_node while holding cgroup_tree_mutex.
Neither cgroup_create() or cgroup_rename() requires active_ref
protection. The former already has enough synchronization through
cgroup_lock_live_group() and the latter doesn't care, so this can be
fixed by updating both functions to break all active_ref protections
before grabbing cgroup_tree_mutex.
While this patch fixes the immediate issue, it probably needs further
work in the long term - kernfs directories should enable lockdep
annotations and maybe the better way to handle this is marking
directory nodes as not needing active_ref protection rather than
breaking it in each operation.

cgroup_taskset is used to track and iterate target tasks while
migrating a task or process and should guarantee that the first task
iterated is the task group leader if a process is being migrated.
b3dc094e93 ("cgroup: use css_set->mg_tasks to track target tasks
during migration") replaced flex array cgroup_taskset->tc_array with
css_set->mg_tasks list to remove process size limit and dynamic
allocation during migration; unfortunately, it incorrectly used list
operations which don't preserve order breaking the guarantee that
cgroup_taskset_first() returns the leader for a process target.
Fix it by using order preserving list operations. Note that as
multiple src_csets may map to a single dst_cset, the iteration order
may change across cgroup_task_migrate(); however, the leader is still
guaranteed to be the first entry.
The switch to list_splice_tail_init() at the end of cgroup_migrate()
isn't strictly necessary. Let's still do it for consistency.

cgrp_dfl_root will be used as the default unified hierarchy. This
patch makes cgrp_dfl_root mountable by making the following changes.
* cgroup_init_early() now initializes cgrp_dfl_root w/
CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR. The default hierarchy is always sane.
* parse_cgroupfs_options() and cgroup_mount() are updated such that
cgrp_dfl_root is mounted if sane_behavior is specified w/o any
subsystems.
* rebind_subsystems() now populates the root directory of
cgrp_dfl_root. Note that the function still guarantees success of
rebinding subsystems to cgrp_dfl_root. If populating fails while
rebinding to cgrp_dfl_root, it whines but ignores the error.
* For backward compatibility, the default hierarchy shows up in
/proc/$PID/cgroup only after it's explicitly mounted so that
userland which doesn't make use of it doesn't see any change.
* "current_css_set_cg_links" file of debug cgroup now treats the
default hierarchy the same as other hierarchies. This is visible to
userland. Given that it's for debug controller, this should be
fine.
* While at it, implement cgroup_on_dfl() which tests whether a give
cgroup is on the default hierarchy or not.
The above changes make cgrp_dfl_root mostly equivalent to other
controllers but the actual unified hierarchy behaviors are not
implemented yet. Let's plug child cgroup creation in cgrp_dfl_root

cgroupfs_root->subsys_mask represents the controllers attached to the
hierarchy. This patch moves the field to cgroup. Subsystem
initialization and rebinding updates the top cgroup's subsys_mask.
For !root cgroups, the subsys_mask bits are set from create_css() and
cleared from kill_css(), which effectively means that all cgroups will
have the same subsys_mask as the top cgroup.
While this doesn't make any difference now, this will help
implementation of the default unified hierarchy where !root cgroups
may have subsets of the top_cgroup's subsys_mask.
While at it, __kill_css() is split out of kill_css(). The former
doesn't care about the subsys_mask while the latter becomes noop if
the controller is already killed and clears the matching bit if not
before proceeding to killing the css. This will be used later by the
default unified hierarchy implementation.

Currently, while rebinding, cgroup_dummy_root serves as the anchor
point. In addition to the target root, rebind_subsystems() takes
@added_mask and @removed_mask. The subsystems specified in the former
are expected to be on the dummy root and then moved to the target
root. The ones in the latter are moved from non-dummy root to dummy.
Now that the dummy root is a fully functional one and we're planning
to use it for the default unified hierarchy, this level of distinction
between dummy and non-dummy roots is quite awkward.
This patch updates rebind_subsystems() to take the target root and one
subsystem mask and move the specified subsystmes to the target root
which may or may not be the dummy root. IOW, unbinding now becomes
moving the subsystems to the dummy root and binding to non-dummy root.
This makes the dummy root mostly equivalent to other hierarchies in
terms of the mechanism of moving subsystems around; however, we still
retain all the semantical restrictions so that this patch doesn't
introduce any visible behavior differences. Another noteworthy detail
is that rebind_subsystems() guarantees that moving a subsystem to the
dummy root never fails so that valid unmounting attempts always
succeed.
This unifies binding and unbinding of subsystems. The invocation
points of ->bind() were inconsistent between the two and now moved
after whole rebinding is complete. This doesn't break the current
users and generally makes more sense.
All rebind_subsystems() users are converted accordingly. Note that
cgroup_remount() now makes two calls to rebind_subsystems() to bind
and then unbind the requested subsystems.
This will allow repurposing of the dummy hierarchy as the default
unified hierarchy and shouldn't make any userland visible behavior
difference.

cgroup_dummy_root is used to host controllers which aren't attached to
any other hierarchy. The root is minimally set up during kernfs
bootstrap and didn't go through full hierarchy initialization. We're
planning to use cgroup_dummy_root for the default unified hierarchy
and thus want it to be fully functional.
Replace the special initialization, which was collected into
cgroup_init() by the previous patch, with an invocation of
cgroup_setup_root(). This simplifies the init path and makes
cgroup_dummy_root a full hierarchy with its own kernfs_root and all.
As this puts the dummy hierarchy on the cgroup_roots list, rename
for_each_active_root() to for_each_root() and update its users to skip
the dummy root for now.

When a new process is forked, cgroup_fork() associates it with the
css_set of its parent but doesn't link it into it. After the new
process is linked to tasklist, cgroup_post_fork() does the linking.
This is problematic for cgroup_transfer_tasks() as there's no way to
tell whether there are tasks which are pointing to a css_set but not
linked yet. It is impossible to implement an operation which transfer
all tasks of a cgroup to another and the current
cgroup_transfer_tasks() can easily be tricked into leaving a newly
forked process behind if it gets called between cgroup_fork() and
cgroup_post_fork().
Let's make association with a css_set and linking atomic by moving it
to cgroup_post_fork(). cgroup_fork() sets child->cgroups to
init_css_set as a placeholder and cgroup_post_fork() is updated to
perform both the association with the parent's cgroup and linking
there. This means that a newly created task will point to
init_css_set without holding a ref to it much like what it does on the
exit path. Empty cg_list is used to indicate that the task isn't
holding a ref to the associated css_set.
This fixes an actual bug with cgroup_transfer_tasks(); however, I'm
not marking it for -stable. The whole thing is broken in multiple
other ways which require invasive updates to fix and I don't think
it's worthwhile to bother with backporting this particular one.
Fortunately, the only user is cpuset and these bugs don't crash the

Currently, process / task migration is a single operation which may
fail depending on memory pressure or the involved controllers'
->can_attach() callbacks. One problem with this approach is migration
of multiple targets. It's impossible to tell whether a given target
will be successfully migrated beforehand and cgroup core can't keep
track of enough states to roll back after intermediate failure.
This is already an issue with cgroup_transfer_tasks(). Also, we're
gonna need multiple target migration for unified hierarchy.
This patch splits migration into four stages -
cgroup_migrate_add_src(), cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst(),
cgroup_migrate() and cgroup_migrate_finish(), where
cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst() performs all the operations which may
fail due to allocation failure without actually migrating the target.
The four separate stages mean that, disregarding ->can_attach()
failures, the success or failure of multi target migration can be
determined before performing any actual migration. If preparations of
all targets succeed, the whole thing will succeed. If not, the whole
operation can fail without any side-effect.
Since the previous patch to use css_set->mg_tasks to keep track of
migration targets, the only thing which may need memory allocation
during migration is the target css_sets. cgroup_migrate_prepare()
pins all source and target css_sets and link them up. Note that this
can be performed without holding threadgroup_lock even if the target
is a process. As long as cgroup_mutex is held, no new css_set can be
put into play.

Currently, while migrating tasks from one cgroup to another,
cgroup_attach_task() builds a flex array of all target tasks;
unfortunately, this has a couple issues.
* Flex array has size limit. On 64bit, struct task_and_cgroup is
24bytes making the flex element limit around 87k. It is a high
number but not impossible to hit. This means that the current
cgroup implementation can't migrate a process with more than 87k
threads.
* Process migration involves memory allocation whose size is dependent
on the number of threads the process has. This means that cgroup
core can't guarantee success or failure of multi-process migrations
as memory allocation failure can happen in the middle. This is in
part because cgroup can't grab threadgroup locks of multiple
processes at the same time, so when there are multiple processes to
migrate, it is imposible to tell how many tasks are to be migrated
beforehand.
Note that this already affects cgroup_transfer_tasks(). cgroup
currently cannot guarantee atomic success or failure of the
operation. It may fail in the middle and after such failure cgroup
doesn't have enough information to roll back properly. It just
aborts with some tasks migrated and others not.
To resolve the situation, this patch updates the migration path to use
task->cg_list to track target tasks. The previous patch already added
css_set->mg_tasks and updated iterations in non-migration paths to
include them during task migration. This patch updates migration path
to actually make use of it.
Instead of putting onto a flex_array, each target task is moved from
its css_set->tasks list to css_set->mg_tasks and the migration path
keeps trace of all the source css_sets and the associated cgroups.
Once all source css_sets are determined, the destination css_set for
each is determined, linked to the matching source css_set and put on a
separate list.
To iterate the target tasks, migration path just needs to iterat
through either the source or target css_sets, depending on whether
migration has been committed or not, and the tasks on their ->mg_tasks
lists. cgroup_taskset is updated to contain the list_heads for source
and target css_sets and the iteration cursor. cgroup_taskset_*() are
accordingly updated to walk through css_sets and their ->mg_tasks.
This resolves the above listed issues with moderate additional
complexity.

To resolve the situation, we're going to use task->cg_list during

will be linked into a dedicated migration list_head on the owning
css_set. Tasks on the migration list are treated the same as tasks on
the usual tasks list; however, being on a separate list allows cgroup
migration code path to keep track of the target tasks by simply
keeping the list of css_sets with tasks being migrated, making
unpredictable dynamic allocation unnecessary.
In prepartion of such migration path update, this patch introduces
css_set->mg_tasks list and updates css_set task iterations so that
they walk both css_set->tasks and ->mg_tasks. Note that ->mg_tasks
isn't used yet.

Currently there are two ways to walk tasks of a cgroup -
css_task_iter_start/next/end() and css_scan_tasks(). The latter
builds on the former but allows blocking while iterating.
Unfortunately, the way css_scan_tasks() is implemented is rather
nasty, it uses a priority heap of pointers to extract some number of
tasks in task creation order and loops over them invoking the callback
and repeats that until it reaches the end. It requires either
preallocated heap or may fail under memory pressure, while unlikely to
be problematic, the complexity is O(N^2), and in general just nasty.
We're gonna convert all css_scan_users() to
css_task_iter_start/next/end() and remove css_scan_users(). As
css_scan_tasks() users may block, let's convert css_set_lock to a
rwsem so that tasks can block during css_task_iter_*() is in progress.
While this does increase the chance of possible deadlock scenarios,
given the current usage, the probability is relatively low, and even
if that happens, the right thing to do is updating the iteration in
the similar way to css iterators so that it can handle blocking.
Most conversions are trivial; however, task_cgroup_path() now expects
to be called with css_set_rwsem locked instead of locking itself.
This is because the function is called with RCU read lock held and
rwsem locking should nest outside RCU read lock.

Tasks are not linked on their css_sets until cgroup task iteration is
actually used. This is to avoid incurring overhead on the fork and
exit paths for systems which have cgroup compiled in but don't use it.
This lazy binding also affects the task migration path. It has to be
careful so that it doesn't link tasks to css_sets when task_cg_lists
linking is not enabled yet. Unfortunately, this conditional linking
in the migration path interferes with planned migration updates.
This patch moves the lazy binding a bit earlier, to the first cgroup
mount. It's a clear indication that cgroup is being used on the
system and task_cg_lists linking is highly likely to be enabled soon
anyway through "tasks" and "cgroup.procs" files.
This allows cgroup_task_migrate() to always link @tsk->cg_list. Note
that it may still race with cgroup_post_fork() but who wins that race
is inconsequential.
While at it, make use_task_css_set_links a bool, add sanity checks in
cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists() and css_task_iter_start(), and update
the former so that it's guaranteed and assumes to run only once.

Before kernfs conversion, due to the way super_block lookup works,
cgroup roots were created and made visible before being fully
initialized. This in turn required a special flag to mark that the
root hasn't been fully initialized so that the destruction path can
tell fully bound ones from half initialized.
That flag is CGRP_ROOT_SUBSYS_BOUND and no longer necessary after the
kernfs conversion as the lookup and creation of new root are atomic
w.r.t. cgroup_mutex. This patch removes the flag and passes the

This reverts commit ab3f5faa62.
Explanation from Hugh:
It's because more thorough testing, by others here, found that it
wasn't always solving the problem: so I asked Tejun privately to
hold off from sending it in, until we'd worked out why not.
Most of our testing being on a v3,11-based kernel, it was perfectly
possible that the problem was merely our own e.g. missing Tejun's
8a2b753844 ("workqueue: fix ordered workqueues in NUMA setups").
But that turned out not to be enough to fix it either. Then Filipe
pointed out how percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() uses call_rcu_sched()
before we ever get to put the offline on to the workqueue: by the
time we get to the workqueue, the ordering has already been lost.
So, thanks for the Acks, but I'm afraid that this ordered workqueue
solution is just not good enough: we should simply forget that patch
and provide a different answer."

Currently, cgroupfs_root and its ->top_cgroup are separated reference
counted and the latter's is ignored. There's no reason to do this
separately. This patch removes cgroupfs_root->refcnt and destroys
cgroupfs_root when the top_cgroup is released.
* cgroup_put() updated to ignore cgroup_is_dead() test for top
cgroups. cgroup_free_fn() updated to handle root destruction when
releasing a top cgroup.
* As root destruction is now bounced through cgroup destruction, it is
asynchronous. Update cgroup_mount() so that it waits for pending
release which is currently implemented using msleep(). Converting
this to proper wait_queue isn't hard but likely unnecessary.

root->number_of_cgroups is currently an integer protected with
cgroup_mutex. Except for sanity checks and proc reporting, the only
place it's used is to check whether the root has any child during
remount; however, this is a bit flawed as the counter is not
decremented when the cgroup is unlinked but when it's released,
meaning that there could be an extended period where all cgroups are
removed but remount is still not allowed because some internal objects
are lingering. While not perfect either, it'd be better to use
emptiness test on root->top_cgroup.children.
This patch updates cgroup_remount() to test top_cgroup's children
instead, which makes number_of_cgroups only actual usage statistics
printing in proc implemented in proc_cgroupstats_show(). Let's
shorten its name and make it an atomic_t so that we don't have to
worry about its synchronization. It's purely auxiliary at this point.

cgroup->name handling became quite complicated over time involving
dedicated struct cgroup_name for RCU protection. Now that cgroup is
on kernfs, we can drop all of it and simply use kernfs_name/path() and
friends. Replace cgroup->name and all related code with kernfs
name/path constructs.
* Reimplement cgroup_name() and cgroup_path() as thin wrappers on top
of kernfs counterparts, which involves semantic changes.
pr_cont_cgroup_name() and pr_cont_cgroup_path() added.
* cgroup->name handling dropped from cgroup_rename().
* All users of cgroup_name/path() updated to the new semantics. Users
which were formatting the string just to printk them are converted
to use pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() instead, which simplifies things
quite a bit. As cgroup_name() no longer requires RCU read lock
around it, RCU lockings which were protecting only cgroup_name() are
removed.
v2: Comment above oom_info_lock updated as suggested by Michal.
v3: dummy_top doesn't have a kn associated and
pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() ended up calling the matching kernfs
functions with NULL kn leading to oops. Test for NULL kn and
print "/" if so. This issue was reported by Fengguang Wu.
v4: Rebased on top of 0ab02ca8f8 ("cgroup: protect modifications to

cgroup currently releases its kernfs_node when it gets removed. While
not buggy, this makes cgroup->kn access rules complicated than
necessary and leads to things like get/put protection around
kernfs_remove() in cgroup_destroy_locked(). In addition, we want to
use kernfs_name/path() and friends but also want to be able to
determine a cgroup's name between removal and release.
This patch makes cgroup hold onto its kernfs_node until freed so that
cgroup->kn is always accessible.

Dynamic cftype addition and removal using cgroup_add/rm_cftypes()
respectively has been quite hairy due to vfs i_mutex. As i_mutex
nests outside cgroup_mutex, cgroup_mutex has to be released and
regrabbed on each iteration through the hierarchy complicating the
process. Now that i_mutex is no longer in play, it can be simplified.
* Just holding cgroup_tree_mutex is enough. No need to meddle with
cgroup_mutex.
* No reason to play the unlock - relock - check serial_nr dancing.
Everything can be atomically while holding cgroup_tree_mutex.
* cgroup_cfts_prepare() is replaced with direct locking of
cgroup_tree_mutex.
* cgroup_cfts_commit() no longer fiddles with locking. It just
applies the cftypes change to the existing cgroups in the hierarchy.
Renamed to cgroup_cfts_apply().

cftype_set was added primarily to allow registering the same cftype
array more than once for different subsystems. Nobody uses or needs
such thing and it's already broken because each cftype has ->ss
pointer which is initialized during registration.
Let's add list_head ->node to cftype and use the first cftype entry in
the array to link them instead of allocating separate cftype_set.
While at it, trigger WARN if cft seems previously initialized during
registration.
This simplifies cftype handling a bit.

cgroup filesystem code was derived from the original sysfs
implementation which was heavily intertwined with vfs objects and
locking with the goal of re-using the existing vfs infrastructure.
That experiment turned out rather disastrous and sysfs switched, a
long time ago, to distributed filesystem model where a separate
representation is maintained which is queried by vfs. Unfortunately,
cgroup stuck with the failed experiment all these years and
accumulated even more problems over time.
Locking and object lifetime management being entangled with vfs is
probably the most egregious. vfs is never designed to be misused like
this and cgroup ends up jumping through various convoluted dancing to
make things work. Even then, operations across multiple cgroups can't
be done safely as it'll deadlock with rename locking.
Recently, kernfs is separated out from sysfs so that it can be used by
users other than sysfs. This patch converts cgroup to use kernfs,
which will bring the following benefits.
* Separation from vfs internals. Locking and object lifetime
management is contained in cgroup proper making things a lot
simpler. This removes significant amount of locking convolutions,
hairy object lifetime rules and the restriction on multi-cgroup
operations.
* Can drop a lot of code to implement filesystem interface as most are
provided by kernfs.
* Proper "severing" semantics, which allows controllers to not worry
about lingering file accesses after offline.
While the preceding patches did as much as possible to make the
transition less painful, large part of the conversion has to be one
discrete step making this patch rather large. The rest of the commit
message lists notable changes in different areas.
Overall
-------
* vfs constructs replaced with kernfs ones. cgroup->dentry w/ ->kn,
cgroupfs_root->sb w/ ->kf_root.
* All dentry accessors are removed. Helpers to map from kernfs
constructs are added.
* All vfs plumbing around dentry, inode and bdi removed.
* cgroup_mount() now directly looks for matching root and then
proceeds to create a new one if not found.
Synchronization and object lifetime
-----------------------------------
* vfs inode locking removed. Among other things, this removes the
need for the convolution in cgroup_cfts_commit(). Future patches
will further simplify it.
* vfs refcnting replaced with cgroup internal ones. cgroup->refcnt,
cgroupfs_root->refcnt added. cgroup_put_root() now directly puts
root->refcnt and when it reaches zero proceeds to destroy it thus
merging cgroup_put_root() and the former cgroup_kill_sb().
Simliarly, cgroup_put() now directly schedules cgroup_free_rcu()
when refcnt reaches zero.
* Unlike before, kernfs objects don't hold onto cgroup objects. When
cgroup destroys a kernfs node, all existing operations are drained
and the association is broken immediately. The same for
cgroupfs_roots and mounts.
* All operations which come through kernfs guarantee that the
associated cgroup is and stays valid for the duration of operation;
however, there are two paths which need to find out the associated
cgroup from dentry without going through kernfs -
css_tryget_from_dir() and cgroupstats_build(). For these two,
kernfs_node->priv is RCU managed so that they can dereference it
under RCU read lock.
File and directory handling
---------------------------
* File and directory operations converted to kernfs_ops and
kernfs_syscall_ops.
* xattrs is implicitly supported by kernfs. No need to worry about it
from cgroup. This means that "xattr" mount option is no longer
necessary. A future patch will add a deprecated warning message
when sane_behavior.
* When cftype->max_write_len > PAGE_SIZE, it's necessary to make a
private copy of one of the kernfs_ops to set its atomic_write_len.
cftype->kf_ops is added and cgroup_init/exit_cftypes() are updated
to handle it.
* cftype->lockdep_key added so that kernfs lockdep annotation can be
per cftype.
* Inidividual file entries and open states are now managed by kernfs.
No need to worry about them from cgroup. cfent, cgroup_open_file
and their friends are removed.
* kernfs_nodes are created deactivated and kernfs_activate()
invocations added to places where creation of new nodes are
committed.
* cgroup_rmdir() uses kernfs_[un]break_active_protection() for
self-removal.
v2: - Li pointed out in an earlier patch that specifying "name="
during mount without subsystem specification should succeed if
there's an existing hierarchy with a matching name although it
should fail with -EINVAL if a new hierarchy should be created.
Prior to the conversion, this used by handled by deferring
failure from NULL return from cgroup_root_from_opts(), which was
necessary because root was being created before checking for
existing ones. Note that cgroup_root_from_opts() returned an
ERR_PTR() value for error conditions which require immediate
mount failure.
As we now have separate search and creation steps, deferring
failure from cgroup_root_from_opts() is no longer necessary.
cgroup_root_from_opts() is updated to always return ERR_PTR()
value on failure.
- The logic to match existing roots is updated so that a mount
attempt with a matching name but different subsys_mask are
rejected. This was handled by a separate matching loop under
the comment "Check for name clashes with existing mounts" but
got lost during conversion. Merge the check into the main
search loop.
- Add __rcu __force casting in RCU_INIT_POINTER() in
cgroup_destroy_locked() to avoid the sparse address space
warning reported by kbuild test bot. Maybe we want an explicit
interface to use kn->priv as RCU protected pointer?

* Un-inline seq_css(). After kernfs conversion, the function will

* Add cgroup_get/put_root() and replace direct super_block->s_active
manipulatinos with them. These will be converted to kernfs_root
refcnting.
* Add cgroup_get/put() and replace dget/put() on cgrp->dentry with
them. These will be converted to kernfs refcnting.
* Update current_css_set_cg_links_read() to use cgroup_name() instead
of reaching into the dentry name. The end result is the same.
These changes don't make functional differences but will make
