2017-05-24cpuset: consider dying css as offlineTejun Heo1-0/+20
In most cases, a cgroup controller don't care about the liftimes of cgroups. For the controller, a css becomes online when ->css_online() is called on it and offline when ->css_offline() is called. However, cpuset is special in that the user interface it exposes cares whether certain cgroups exist or not. Combined with the RCU delay between cgroup removal and css offlining, this can lead to user visible behavior oddities where operations which should succeed after cgroup removals fail for some time period. The effects of cgroup removals are delayed when seen from userland. This patch adds css_is_dying() which tests whether offline is pending and updates is_cpuset_online() so that the function returns false also while offline is pending. This gets rid of the userland visible delays.

2017-03-17cgroup, kthread: close race window where new kthreads can be migrated to non-root cgroupsTejun Heo1-0/+21
Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between the kthread itself and its creator. Once the new kthread starts running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its job by waking it up. In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical, kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and many other things. Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation. This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes stalling workqueue execution. This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread should stay in the root cgroup. It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat, so it's unlikely that this would break anything. v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit field suggested by Oleg.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman: "This set of changes is a number of smaller things that have been overlooked in other development cycles focused on more fundamental change. The devpts changes are small things that were a distraction until we managed to kill off DEVPTS_MULTPLE_INSTANCES. There is an trivial regression fix to autofs for the unprivileged mount changes that went in last cycle. A pair of ioctls has been added by Andrey Vagin making it is possible to discover the relationships between namespaces when referring to them through file descriptors. The big user visible change is starting to add simple resource limits to catch programs that misbehave. With namespaces in general and user namespaces in particular allowing users to use more kinds of resources, it has become important to have something to limit errant programs. Because the purpose of these limits is to catch errant programs the code needs to be inexpensive to use as it always on, and the default limits need to be high enough that well behaved programs on well behaved systems don't encounter them. To this end, after some review I have implemented per user per user namespace limits, and use them to limit the number of namespaces. The limits being per user mean that one user can not exhause the limits of another user. The limits being per user namespace allow contexts where the limit is 0 and security conscious folks can remove from their threat anlysis the code used to manage namespaces (as they have historically done as it root only). At the same time the limits being per user namespace allow other parts of the system to use namespaces. Namespaces are increasingly being used in application sand boxing scenarios so an all or nothing disable for the entire system for the security conscious folks makes increasing use of these sandboxes impossible. There is also added a limit on the maximum number of mounts present in a single mount namespace. It is nontrivial to guess what a reasonable system wide limit on the number of mount structure in the kernel would be, especially as it various based on how a system is using containers. A limit on the number of mounts in a mount namespace however is much easier to understand and set. In most cases in practice only about 1000 mounts are used. Given that some autofs scenarious have the potential to be 30,000 to 50,000 mounts I have set the default limit for the number of mounts at 100,000 which is well above every known set of users but low enough that the mount hash tables don't degrade unreaonsably. These limits are a start. I expect this estabilishes a pattern that other limits for resources that namespaces use will follow.

2016-08-10cgroup: make cgroup_path() and friends behave in the style of strlcpy()Tejun Heo1-11/+5
cgroup_path() and friends used to format the path from the end and thus the resulting path usually didn't start at the start of the passed in buffer. Also, when the buffer was too small, the partial result was truncated from the head rather than tail and there was no way to tell how long the full path would be. These make the functions less robust and more awkward to use. With recent updates to kernfs_path(), cgroup_path() and friends can be made to behave in strlcpy() style. * cgroup_path(), cgroup_path_ns[_locked]() and task_cgroup_path() now always return the length of the full path. If buffer is too small, it contains nul terminated truncated output. * All users updated accordingly. v2: cgroup_path() usage in kernel/sched/debug.c converted.

2016-08-10kernfs: make kernfs_path*() behave in the style of strlcpy()Tejun Heo1-1/+6
kernfs_path*() functions always return the length of the full path but the path content is undefined if the length is larger than the provided buffer. This makes its behavior different from strlcpy() and requires error handling in all its users even when they don't care about truncation. In addition, the implementation can actully be simplified by making it behave properly in strlcpy() style. * Update kernfs_path_from_node_locked() to always fill up the buffer with path. If the buffer is not large enough, the output is truncated and terminated. * kernfs_path() no longer needs error handling. Make it a simple inline wrapper around kernfs_path_from_node(). * sysfs_warn_dup()'s use of kernfs_path() doesn't need error handling. Updated accordingly. * cgroup_path()'s use of kernfs_path() updated to retain the old behavior.

2016-02-16cgroup: introduce cgroup namespacesAditya Kali1-0/+49
Introduce the ability to create new cgroup namespace. The newly created cgroup namespace remembers the cgroup of the process at the point of creation of the cgroup namespace (referred as cgroupns-root). The main purpose of cgroup namespace is to virtualize the contents of /proc/self/cgroup file. Processes inside a cgroup namespace are only able to see paths relative to their namespace root (unless they are moved outside of their cgroupns-root, at which point they will see a relative path from their cgroupns-root). For a correctly setup container this enables container-tools (like libcontainer, lxc, lmctfy, etc.) to create completely virtualized containers without leaking system level cgroup hierarchy to the task. This patch only implements the 'unshare' part of the cgroupns.

2015-12-08sock, cgroup: add sock->sk_cgroupTejun Heo1-0/+41
In cgroup v1, dealing with cgroup membership was difficult because the number of membership associations was unbound. As a result, cgroup v1 grew several controllers whose primary purpose is either tagging membership or pull in configuration knobs from other subsystems so that cgroup membership test can be avoided. net_cls and net_prio controllers are examples of the latter. They allow configuring network-specific attributes from cgroup side so that network subsystem can avoid testing cgroup membership; unfortunately, these are not only cumbersome but also problematic. Both net_cls and net_prio aren't properly hierarchical. Both inherit configuration from the parent on creation but there's no interaction afterwards. An ancestor doesn't restrict the behavior in its subtree in anyway and configuration changes aren't propagated downwards. Especially when combined with cgroup delegation, this is problematic because delegatees can mess up whatever network configuration implemented at the system level. net_prio would allow the delegatees to set whatever priority value regardless of CAP_NET_ADMIN and net_cls the same for classid. While it is possible to solve these issues from controller side by implementing hierarchical allowable ranges in both controllers, it would involve quite a bit of complexity in the controllers and further obfuscate network configuration as it becomes even more difficult to tell what's actually being configured looking from the network side. While not much can be done for v1 at this point, as membership handling is sane on cgroup v2, it'd be better to make cgroup matching behave like other network matches and classifiers than introducing further complications. In preparation, this patch updates sock->sk_cgrp_data handling so that it points to the v2 cgroup that sock was created in until either net_prio or net_cls is used. Once either of the two is used, sock->sk_cgrp_data reverts to its previous role of carrying prioidx and classid. This is to avoid adding yet another cgroup related field to struct sock. As the mode switching can happen at most once per boot, the switching mechanism is aimed at lowering hot path overhead. It may leak a finite, likely small, number of cgroup refs and report spurious prioidx or classid on switching; however, dynamic updates of prioidx and classid have always been racy and lossy - socks between creation and fd installation are never updated, config changes don't update existing sockets at all, and prioidx may index with dead and recycled cgroup IDs. Non-critical inaccuracies from small race windows won't make any noticeable difference. This patch doesn't make use of the pointer yet. The following patch will implement netfilter match for cgroup2 membership. v2: Use sock_cgroup_data to avoid inflating struct sock w/ another cgroup specific field. v3: Add comments explaining why sock_data_prioidx() and sock_data_classid() use different fallback values.

2015-12-03cgroup: fix handling of multi-destination migration from subtree_control enablingTejun Heo1-11/+22
Consider the following v2 hierarchy. P0 (+memory) --- P1 (-memory) --- A \- B P0 has memory enabled in its subtree_control while P1 doesn't. If both A and B contain processes, they would belong to the memory css of P1. Now if memory is enabled on P1's subtree_control, memory csses should be created on both A and B and A's processes should be moved to the former and B's processes the latter. IOW, enabling controllers can cause atomic migrations into different csses. The core cgroup migration logic has been updated accordingly but the controller migration methods haven't and still assume that all tasks migrate to a single target css; furthermore, the methods were fed the css in which subtree_control was updated which is the parent of the target csses. pids controller depends on the migration methods to move charges and this made the controller attribute charges to the wrong csses often triggering the following warning by driving a counter negative.

All controllers are updated accordingly. * Controllers which don't care whether there are one or multiple target csses can be converted trivially. cpu, io, freezer, perf, netclassid and netprio fall in this category. * cpuset's current implementation assumes that there's single source and destination and thus doesn't support v2 hierarchy already. The only change made by this patchset is how that single destination css is obtained. * memory migration path already doesn't do anything on v2. How the single destination css is obtained is updated and the prep stage of mem_cgroup_can_attach() is reordered to accomodate the change. * pids is the only controller which was affected by this bug.

While enough for cgroup core usages, this can't be used in hot paths to test cgroup membership. This patch adds cgroup->ancestor_ids[] which records the IDs of all ancestors including self and cgroup->level for the nesting level. This allows testing whether a given cgroup is a descendant of another in three finite steps - testing whether the two belong to the same hierarchy, whether the descendant candidate is at the same or a higher level than the ancestor and comparing the recorded ancestor_id at the matching level. cgroup_is_descendant() is accordingly reimplmented and made inline.

2015-11-16cgroup: fix cftype->file_offset handlingTejun Heo1-13/+1
6f60eade2433 ("cgroup: generalize obtaining the handles of and notifying cgroup files") introduced cftype->file_offset so that the handles for per-css file instances can be recorded. These handles then can be used, for example, to generate file modified notifications. Unfortunately, it made the wrong assumption that files are created once for a given css and removed on its destruction. Due to the dependencies among subsystems, a css may be hidden from userland and then later shown again. This is implemented by removing and re-creating the affected files, so the associated kernfs_node for a given cgroup file may change over time. This incorrect assumption led to the corruption of css->files lists. Reimplement cftype->file_offset handling so that cgroup_file->kn is protected by a lock and updated as files are created and destroyed. This also makes keeping them on per-cgroup list unnecessary.

2015-10-15cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroupsTejun Heo1-0/+2
cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup. This is unnecessary and undesirable. No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with non-root cgroups. Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep consistent with the cgroup core behavior. Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held by zombies or determine where the zombies came from. Currently, pids controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies always escape the resource restriction. With cgroup association being reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful. There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit. The zombie can be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on "cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup removal. It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup membership is maintained. This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies associated with their cgroups at the time of exit. * Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set while pinning and pointing to the css_set. This keeps css_set association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs" and populated_cnt tracking. The css_set reference is dropped when the task_struct is freed. * ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set. Removed. * cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks. There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit. The final schedule out is enough. The callbacks are removed. * On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes. "/proc/PID/cgroup" still reports "/" for all zombies. On the default hierarchy, "/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged to at the time of exit. If the cgroup gets removed before the task is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended. v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when !CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

2015-10-15cgroup: make css_set_rwsem a spinlock and rename it to css_set_lockTejun Heo1-3/+2
css_set_rwsem is the inner lock protecting css_sets and is accessed from hot paths such as fork and exit. Internally, it has no reason to be a rwsem or even mutex. There are no internal blocking operations while holding it. This was rwsem because css task iteration used to expose it to external iterator users. As the previous patch updated css task iteration such that the locking is not leaked to its users, there's no reason to keep it a rwsem. This patch converts css_set_rwsem to a spinlock and rename it to css_set_lock. It uses bh-safe operations as a planned usage needs to access it from RCU callback context.

2015-10-15cgroup: don't hold css_set_rwsem across css task iterationTejun Heo1-0/+4
css_sets are synchronized through css_set_rwsem but the locking scheme is kinda bizarre. The hot paths - fork and exit - have to write lock the rwsem making the rw part pointless; furthermore, many readers already hold cgroup_mutex. One of the readers is css task iteration. It read locks the rwsem over the entire duration of iteration. This leads to silly locking behavior. When cpuset tries to migrate processes of a cgroup to a different NUMA node, css_set_rwsem is held across the entire migration attempt which can take a long time locking out forking, exiting and other cgroup operations. This patch updates css task iteration so that it locks css_set_rwsem only while the iterator is being advanced. css task iteration involves two levels - css_set and task iteration. As css_sets in use are practically immutable, simply pinning the current one is enough for resuming iteration afterwards. Task iteration is tricky as tasks may leave their css_set while iteration is in progress. This is solved by keeping track of active iterators and advancing them if their next task leaves its css_set. v2: put_task_struct() in css_task_iter_next() moved outside css_set_rwsem. A later patch will add cgroup operations to task_struct free path which may grab the same lock and this avoids deadlock possibilities. css_set_move_task() updated to use list_for_each_entry_safe() when walking task_iters and advancing them. This is necessary as advancing an iter may remove it from the list. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: replace cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated()Tejun Heo1-2/+2
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().

2015-09-22cgroup, memcg, cpuset: implement cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader()Tejun Heo1-0/+22
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.

2015-09-18cgroup: generalize obtaining the handles of and notifying cgroup filesTejun Heo1-0/+13
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.

2015-09-18cgroup: replace cgroup_on_dfl() tests in controllers with cgroup_subsys_on_dfl()Tejun Heo1-58/+0
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 static_key based cgroup_subsys_on_dfl(). This leaves cgroup core as the only user of cgroup_on_dfl() and the function is moved from the header file to cgroup.c.

2015-08-04cgroup: define controller file conventionsTejun Heo1-0/+9
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. v2: Added descriptions of min, low and high knobs.

2015-07-14cgroup: allow a cgroup subsystem to reject a forkAleksa Sarai1-2/+13
Add a new cgroup subsystem callback can_fork that conditionally states whether or not the fork is accepted or rejected by a cgroup policy. In addition, add a cancel_fork callback so that if an error occurs later in the forking process, any state modified by can_fork can be reverted. Allow for a private opaque pointer to be passed from cgroup_can_fork to cgroup_post_fork, allowing for the fork state to be stored by each subsystem separately. Also add a tagging system for cgroup_subsys.h to allow for CGROUP_<TAG> enumerations to be be defined and used. In addition, explicitly add a CGROUP_CANFORK_COUNT macro to make arrays easier to define. This is in preparation for implementing the pids cgroup subsystem.
