Currently, cgroup_has_tasks() tests whether the target cgroup has any
css_set linked to it. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges
with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set
linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks.
To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of
css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the
css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even
when it doesn't have any live tasks.
This patch replaces cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated()
which tests cgroup->nr_populated instead which locally counts the
number of populated css_sets. Unlike cgroup_has_tasks(),
cgroup_is_populated() is recursive - if any of the descendants is
populated, the cgroup is populated too. While this changes the
meaning of the test, all the existing users are okay with the change.
While at it, replace the open-coded ->populated_cnt test in
cgroup_events_show() with cgroup_is_populated().

It wasn't explicitly documented but, when a process is being migrated,
cpuset and memcg depend on cgroup_taskset_first() returning the
threadgroup leader; however, this approach is somewhat ghetto and
would no longer work for the planned multi-process migration.
This patch introduces explicit cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader() which
iterates over only the threadgroup leaders and replaces
cgroup_taskset_first() usages for accessing the leader with it.
This prepares both memcg and cpuset for multi-process migration. This
patch also updates the documentation for cgroup_taskset_for_each() to
clarify the iteration rules and removes comments mentioning task
ordering in tasksets.
v2: A previous patch which added threadgroup leader test was dropped.

cgroup core handles creations and removals of cgroup interface files
as described by cftypes. There are cases where the handle for a given
file instance is necessary, for example, to generate a file modified
event. Currently, this is handled by explicitly matching the callback
method pointer and storing the file handle manually in
cgroup_add_file(). While this simple approach works for cgroup core
files, it can't for controller interface files.
This patch generalizes cgroup interface file handle handling. struct
cgroup_file is defined and each cftype can optionally tell cgroup core
to store the file handle by setting ->file_offset. A file handle
remains accessible as long as the containing css is accessible.
Both "cgroup.procs" and "cgroup.events" are converted to use the new
generic mechanism instead of hooking directly into cgroup_add_file().
Also, cgroup_file_notify() which takes a struct cgroup_file and
generates a file modified event on it is added and replaces explicit
kernfs_notify() invocations.
This generalizes cgroup file handle handling and allows controllers to
generate file modified notifications.

cgroup_on_dfl() tests whether the cgroup's root is the default
hierarchy; however, an individual controller is only interested in
whether the controller is attached to the default hierarchy and never
tests a cgroup which doesn't belong to the hierarchy that the
controller is attached to.
This patch replaces cgroup_on_dfl() tests in controllers with faster

Traditionally, each cgroup controller implemented whatever interface
it wanted leading to interfaces which are widely inconsistent.
Examining the requirements of the controllers readily yield that there
are only a few control schemes shared among all.
Two major controllers already had to implement new interface for the
unified hierarchy due to significant structural changes. Let's take
the chance to establish common conventions throughout all controllers.
This patch defines CGROUP_WEIGHT_MIN/DFL/MAX to be used on all weight
based control knobs and documents the conventions that controllers
should follow on the unified hierarchy. Except for io.weight knob,
all existing unified hierarchy knobs are already compliant. A
follow-up patch will update io.weight.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
- threadgroup_lock got reorganized so that its users can pick the
actual locking mechanism to use. Its only user - cgroups - is
updated to use a percpu_rwsem instead of per-process rwsem.
This makes things a bit lighter on hot paths and allows cgroups to
perform and fail multi-task (a process) migrations atomically.
Multi-task migrations are used in several places including the
unified hierarchy.
- Delegation rule and documentation added to unified hierarchy. This

for unified hierarchy before lifting the devel mask.

Until now, cftype arrays carried files for both the default and legacy
hierarchies and the files which needed to be used on only one of them
were flagged with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE. This
gets confusing very quickly and we may end up exposing interface files
to the default hierarchy without thinking it through.
This patch makes cgroup core provide separate sets of interfaces for
cftype handling so that the cftypes for the default and legacy
hierarchies are clearly distinguished. The previous two patches
renamed the existing ones so that they clearly indicate that they're
for the legacy hierarchies. This patch adds the interface for the
default hierarchy and apply them selectively depending on the
hierarchy type.
* cftypes added through cgroup_subsys->dfl_cftypes and
cgroup_add_dfl_cftypes() only show up on the default hierarchy.
* cftypes added through cgroup_subsys->legacy_cftypes and
cgroup_add_legacy_cftypes() only show up on the legacy hierarchies.
* cgroup_subsys->dfl_cftypes and ->legacy_cftypes can point to the
same array for the cases where the interface files are identical on
both types of hierarchies.
* This makes all the existing subsystem interface files legacy-only by
default and all subsystems will have no interface file created when
enabled on the default hierarchy. Each subsystem should explicitly
review and compose the interface for the default hierarchy.
* A boot param "cgroup__DEVEL__legacy_files_on_dfl" is added which
makes subsystems which haven't decided the interface files for the
default hierarchy to present the legacy files on the default
hierarchy so that its behavior on the default hierarchy can be
tested. As the awkward name suggests, this is for development only.
* memcg's CFTYPE_INSANE on "use_hierarchy" is noop now as the whole
array isn't used on the default hierarchy. The flag is removed.

Currently, cftypes added by cgroup_add_cftypes() are used for both the
unified default hierarchy and legacy ones and subsystems can mark each
file with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE if it has to
appear only on one of them. This is quite hairy and error-prone.
Also, we may end up exposing interface files to the default hierarchy

cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype addition functions and
apply each only on the hierarchies of the matching type. This will
allow organizing cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems

Currently, the blkio subsystem attributes all of writeback IOs to the
root. One of the issues is that there's no way to tell who originated
a writeback IO from block layer. Those IOs are usually issued
asynchronously from a task which didn't have anything to do with
actually generating the dirty pages. The memory subsystem, when
enabled, already keeps track of the ownership of each dirty page and
it's desirable for blkio to piggyback instead of adding its own
per-page tag.
blkio piggybacking on memory is an implementation detail which
preferably should be handled automatically without requiring explicit
userland action. To achieve that, this patch implements
cgroup_subsys->depends_on which contains the mask of subsystems which
should be enabled together when the subsystem is enabled.
The previous patches already implemented the support for enabled but
invisible subsystems and cgroup_subsys->depends_on can be easily
implemented by updating cgroup_refresh_child_subsys_mask() so that it
calculates cgroup->child_subsys_mask considering
cgroup_subsys->depends_on of the explicitly enabled subsystems.
Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt is updated to explain that
subsystems may not become immediately available after being unused
from userland and that dependency could be a factor in it. As
subsystems may already keep residual references, this doesn't
significantly change how subsystem rebinding can be used.

cgroup is implementing support for subsystem dependency which would

The previous patches added support for explicitly and implicitly
enabled subsystems and showing/hiding their interface files. An
explicitly enabled subsystem may become implicitly enabled if it's
turned off through "cgroup.subtree_control" but there are subsystems
depending on it. In such cases, the subsystem, as it's turned off
when seen from userland, shouldn't enforce any resource control.
Also, the subsystem may be explicitly turned on later again and its
interface files should be as close to the intial state as possible.

The debug controller, as its name suggests, exposes cgroup core
internals to userland to aid debugging. Unfortunately, except for the
name, there's no provision to prevent its usage in production
configurations and the controller is widely enabled and mounted
leaking internal details to userland. Like most other debug
information, the information exposed by debug isn't interesting even

This controller has no reason for existing. This patch implements
cgrp_dfl_root_inhibit_ss_mask which can suppress specific subsystems
on the default hierarchy and adds the debug subsystem to it so that it
can be gradually deprecated as usages move towards the unified
hierarchy.

Implement css_tryget() which tries to grab a cgroup_subsys_state's
reference as long as it already hasn't reached zero. Combined with
the recent css iterator changes to include offline && !released csses
during traversal, this can be used to access csses regardless of its
online state.
v2: Take the new flag CSS_NO_REF into account.

Now that cgroup liveliness and css onliness are the same state,
convert cgroup_has_live_children() into css_has_online_children() so
that it can be used for actual csses too. The function now uses
css_for_each_child() for iteration and is published.

Use CSS_ONLINE on the self css to indicate whether a cgroup has been

Currently, css_next_child() is implemented as finding the next child
cgroup which has the css enabled, which used to be the only way to do
it as only cgroups participated in sibling lists and thus could be
iteratd. This works as long as what's required during iteration is
not missing online csses; however, it turns out that there are use
cases where offlined but not yet released csses need to be iterated.
This is difficult to implement through cgroup iteration the unified
hierarchy as there may be multiple dying csses for the same subsystem
associated with single cgroup.
After the recent changes, the cgroup self and regular csses behave
identically in how they're linked and unlinked from the sibling lists
including assertion of CSS_RELEASED and css_next_child() can simply
switch to iterating csses directly. This both simplifies the logic
and ensures that all visible non-released csses are included in the
iteration whether there are multiple dying csses for a subsystem or
not.
As all other iterators depend on css_next_child() for sibling
iteration, this changes behaviors of all css iterators. Add and
update explanations on the css states which are included in traversal
to all iterators.
As css iteration could always contain offlined csses, this shouldn't
break any of the current users and new usages which need iteration of
all on and offline csses can make use of the new semantics.

css iterations allow the caller to drop RCU read lock. As long as the
caller keeps the current position accessible, it can simply re-grab
RCU read lock later and continue iteration. This is achieved by using
CGRP_DEAD to detect whether the current positions next pointer is safe
to dereference and if not re-iterate from the beginning to the next
position using ->serial_nr.
CGRP_DEAD is used as the marker to invalidate the next pointer and the
only requirement is that the marker is set before the next sibling
starts its RCU grace period. Because CGRP_DEAD is set at the end of
cgroup_destroy_locked() but the cgroup is unlinked when the reference
count reaches zero, we currently have a rather large window where this
fallback re-iteration logic can be triggered.
This patch introduces CSS_RELEASED which is set when a css is unlinked
from its sibling list. This still keeps the re-iteration logic
working while drastically reducing the window of its activation.
While at it, rewrite the comment in css_next_child() to reflect the
new flag and better explain the synchronization.
This will also enable iterating csses directly instead of through
cgroups.
v2: CSS_RELEASED now assigned to 1 << 2 as 1 << 0 is used by
CSS_NO_REF.

We're moving towards using cgroup_subsys_states as the fundamental
structural blocks. All csses including the cgroup->self and actual
ones now form trees through css->children and ->sibling which follow
the same rules as what cgroup->children and ->sibling followed. This
patch moves cgroup->serial_nr which is used to implement css iteration
into css.
Note that all csses, regardless of their types, allocate their serial
numbers from the same monotonically increasing counter. This doesn't
affect the ordering needed by css iteration or cause any other
material behavior changes. This will be used to update css iteration.

We're moving towards using cgroup_subsys_states as the fundamental

cgroup in general is moving towards using cgroup_subsys_state as the
fundamental structural component and css_parent() was introduced to
convert from using cgroup->parent to css->parent. It was quite some
time ago and we're moving forward with making css more prominent.
This patch drops the trivial wrapper css_parent() and let the users
dereference css->parent. While at it, explicitly mark fields of css
which are public and immutable.

9395a45004 ("cgroup: enable refcnting for root csses") enabled
reference counting for root csses (cgroup_subsys_states) so that
cgroup's self csses can be used to manage the lifetime of the
containing cgroups.
Unfortunately, this change was incorrect. During early init,
cgrp_dfl_root self css refcnt is used. percpu_ref can't initialized
during early init and its initialization is deferred till
cgroup_init() time. This means that cpu was using percpu_ref which
wasn't properly initialized. Due to the way percpu variables are laid
out on x86, this didn't blow up immediately on x86 but ended up
incrementing and decrementing the percpu variable at offset zero,
whatever it may be; however, on other archs, this caused fault and
early boot failure.
As cgroup self csses for root cgroups of non-dfl hierarchies need
working refcounting, we can't revert 9395a45004. This patch adds
CSS_NO_REF which explicitly inhibits reference counting on the css and
sets it on all normal (non-self) csses and cgroup_dfl_root self css.
v2: cgrp_dfl_root.self is the offending one. Set the flag on it.

Fixes: 9395a45004 ("cgroup: enable refcnting for root csses")
Currently cgroup implements refcnting separately using atomic_t
cgroup->refcnt. The destruction paths of cgroup and css are rather
complex and bear a lot of similiarities including the use of RCU and
bouncing to a work item.
This patch makes cgroup use the refcnt of self css for refcnting
instead of using its own. This makes cgroup refcnting use css's
percpu refcnt and share the destruction mechanism.
* css_release_work_fn() and css_free_work_fn() are updated to handle
both csses and cgroups. This is a bit messy but should do until we
can make cgroup->self a full css, which currently can't be done
thanks to multiple hierarchies.
* cgroup_destroy_locked() now performs
percpu_ref_kill(&cgrp->self.refcnt) instead of cgroup_put(cgrp).
* Negative refcnt sanity check in cgroup_get() is no longer necessary
as percpu_ref already handles it.
* Similarly, as a cgroup which hasn't been killed will never be
released regardless of its refcnt value and percpu_ref has sanity
check on kill, cgroup_is_dead() sanity check in cgroup_put() is no
longer necessary.
* As whether a refcnt reached zero or not can only be decided after
the reference count is killed, cgroup_root->cgrp's refcnting can no
longer be used to decide whether to kill the root or not. Let's
make cgroup_kill_sb() explicitly initiate destruction if the root
doesn't have any children. This makes sense anyway as unmounted
cgroup hierarchy without any children should be destroyed.
While this is a bit messy, this will allow pushing more bookkeeping
towards cgroup->self and thus handling cgroups and csses in more
uniform way. In the very long term, it should be possible to
introduce a base subsystem and convert the self css to a proper one
making things whole lot simpler and unified.

Currently, css_get(), css_tryget() and css_tryget_online() are noops
for root csses as an optimization; however, we're planning to use css
refcnts to track of cgroup lifetime too and root cgroups also need to
be reference counted. Since css has been converted to percpu_refcnt,
the overhead of refcnting is miniscule and this optimization isn't too
meaningful anymore. Furthermore, controllers which optimize the root
cgroup often never even invoke these functions in their hot paths.
This patch enables refcnting for root csses too. This makes CSS_ROOT
flag unused and removes it.

cgroup_destroy_css_killed() is cgroup destruction stage which happens
after all csses are offlined. After the recent updates, it no longer
does anything other than putting the base reference. This patch

ref at the end isntead.
This also makes cgroup->nr_css unnecessary. Removed.
