Merge branch 'for-4.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: "Several noteworthy changes. - Parav's rdma controller is finally merged. It is very straight forward and can limit the abosolute numbers of common rdma constructs used by different cgroups. - kernel/cgroup.c got too chubby and disorganized. Created kernel/cgroup/ subdirectory and moved all cgroup related files under kernel/ there and reorganized the core code. This hurts for backporting patches but was long overdue. - cgroup v2 process listing reimplemented so that it no longer depends on allocating a buffer large enough to cache the entire result to sort and uniq the output. v2 has always mangled the sort order to ensure that users don't depend on the sorted output, so this shouldn't surprise anybody. This makes the pid listing functions use the same iterators that are used internally, which have to have the same iterating capabilities anyway. - perf cgroup filtering now works automatically on cgroup v2. This patch was posted a long time ago but somehow fell through the cracks. - misc fixes asnd documentation updates" * 'for-4.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: (27 commits) kernfs: fix locking around kernfs_ops->release() callback cgroup: drop the matching uid requirement on migration for cgroup v2 cgroup, perf_event: make perf_event controller work on cgroup2 hierarchy cgroup: misc cleanups cgroup: call subsys->*attach() only for subsystems which are actually affected by migration cgroup: track migration context in cgroup_mgctx cgroup: cosmetic update to cgroup_taskset_add() rdmacg: Fixed uninitialized current resource usage cgroup: Add missing cgroup-v2 PID controller documentation. rdmacg: Added documentation for rdmacg IB/core: added support to use rdma cgroup controller rdmacg: Added rdma cgroup controller cgroup: fix a comment typo cgroup: fix RCU related sparse warnings cgroup: move namespace code to kernel/cgroup/namespace.c cgroup: rename functions for consistency cgroup: move v1 mount functions to kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c cgroup: separate out cgroup1_kf_syscall_ops cgroup: refactor mount path and clearly distinguish v1 and v2 paths cgroup: move cgroup v1 specific code to kernel/cgroup/cgroup-v1.c ...

+/*
+ * Process number limiting controller for cgroups.
+ *
+ * Used to allow a cgroup hierarchy to stop any new processes from fork()ing
+ * after a certain limit is reached.
+ *
+ * Since it is trivial to hit the task limit without hitting any kmemcg limits
+ * in place, PIDs are a fundamental resource. As such, PID exhaustion must be
+ * preventable in the scope of a cgroup hierarchy by allowing resource limiting
+ * of the number of tasks in a cgroup.
+ *
+ * In order to use the `pids` controller, set the maximum number of tasks in
+ * pids.max (this is not available in the root cgroup for obvious reasons). The
+ * number of processes currently in the cgroup is given by pids.current.
+ * Organisational operations are not blocked by cgroup policies, so it is
+ * possible to have pids.current > pids.max. However, it is not possible to
+ * violate a cgroup policy through fork(). fork() will return -EAGAIN if forking
+ * would cause a cgroup policy to be violated.
+ *
+ * To set a cgroup to have no limit, set pids.max to "max". This is the default
+ * for all new cgroups (N.B. that PID limits are hierarchical, so the most
+ * stringent limit in the hierarchy is followed).
+ *
+ * pids.current tracks all child cgroup hierarchies, so parent/pids.current is
+ * a superset of parent/child/pids.current.
