There are quite a few places where all loaded [builtin] subsys are
iterated. Implement for_each_[builtin_]subsys() and replace manual
iterations with those to simplify those places a bit. The new
iterators automatically skip NULL subsystems. This shouldn't cause
any functional difference.
Iteration loops which scan all subsystems and then skipping modular
ones explicitly are converted to use for_each_builtin_subsys().
While at it, reorder variable declarations and adjust whitespaces a

cgroup curiously has two subsystem masks, ->subsys_mask and
->actual_subsys_mask. The latter only exists because the new target
subsys_mask is passed into rebind_subsystems() via @root>subsys_mask.
rebind_subsystems() needs to know what the current mask is to decide
how to reach the target mask so ->actual_subsys_mask is used as the
temp location to remember the current state.
Adding a temporary field to a permanent data structure is rather silly
and can be misleading. Update rebind_subsystems() to take @added_mask

A css (cgroup_subsys_state) is how each cgroup is represented to a
controller. As such, it can be used in hot paths across the various
subsystems different controllers are associated with.
One of the common operations is reference counting, which up until now
has been implemented using a global atomic counter and can have
significant adverse impact on scalability. For example, css refcnt
can be gotten and put multiple times by blkcg for each IO request.
For highops configurations which try to do as much per-cpu as
possible, the global frequent refcnting can be very expensive.
In general, given the various and hugely diverse paths css's end up
being used from, we need to make it cheap and highly scalable. In its
usage, css refcnting isn't very different from module refcnting.
This patch converts css refcnting to use the recently added
percpu_ref. css_get/tryget/put() directly maps to the matching
percpu_ref operations and the deactivation logic is no longer
necessary as percpu_ref already has refcnt killing.
The only complication is that as the refcnt is per-cpu,
percpu_ref_kill() in itself doesn't ensure that further tryget
operations will fail, which we need to guarantee before invoking
->css_offline()'s. This is resolved collecting kill confirmation
using percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() and initiating the offline phase
of destruction after all css refcnt's are confirmed to be seen as
killed on all CPUs. The previous patches already splitted destruction
into two phases, so percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() can be hooked up
easily.
This patch removes css_refcnt() which is used for rcu dereference
sanity check in css_id(). While we can add a percpu refcnt API to ask
the same question, css_id() itself is scheduled to be removed fairly
soon, so let's not bother with it. Just drop the sanity check and use
rcu_dereference_raw() instead.
v2: - init_cgroup_css() was calling percpu_ref_init() without checking
the return value. This causes two problems - the obvious lack
of error handling and percpu_ref_init() being called from
cgroup_init_subsys() before the allocators are up, which
triggers warnings but doesn't cause actual problems as the
refcnt isn't used for roots anyway. Fix both by moving
percpu_ref_init() to cgroup_create().
- The base references were put too early by
percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() and cgroup_offline_fn() put the
refs one extra time. This wasn't noticeable because css's go
through another RCU grace period before being freed. Update
cgroup_destroy_locked() to grab an extra reference before
killing the refcnts. This problem was noticed by Kent.

Split cgroup_destroy_locked() into two steps and put the latter half
into cgroup_offline_fn() which is executed from a work item. The
latter half is responsible for offlining the css's, removing the
cgroup from internal lists, and propagating release notification to
the parent. The separation is to allow using percpu refcnt for css.
Note that this allows for other cgroup operations to happen between
the first and second halves of destruction, including creating a new
cgroup with the same name. As the target cgroup is marked DEAD in the
first half and cgroup internals don't care about the names of cgroups,
this should be fine. A comment explaining this will be added by the
next patch which implements the actual percpu refcnting.
As RCU freeing is guaranteed to happen after the second step of
destruction, we can use the same work item for both. This patch
renames cgroup->free_work to ->destroy_work and uses it for both
purposes. INIT_WORK() is now performed right before queueing the work
item.

cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre/post() to use cgroup_next_sibling()

Currently, there's no easy way to find out the next sibling cgroup
unless it's known that the current cgroup is accessed from the
parent's children list in a single RCU critical section. This in turn
forces all iterators to require whole iteration to be enclosed in a
single RCU critical section, which sometimes is too restrictive. This
patch implements cgroup_next_sibling() which can reliably determine
the next sibling regardless of the state of the current cgroup as long
as it's accessible.
It currently is impossible to determine the next sibling after
dropping RCU read lock because the cgroup being iterated could be
removed anytime and if RCU read lock is dropped, nothing guarantess
its ->sibling.next pointer is accessible. A removed cgroup would
continue to point to its next sibling for RCU accesses but stop
receiving updates from the sibling. IOW, the next sibling could be
removed and then complete its grace period while RCU read lock is
dropped, making it unsafe to dereference ->sibling.next after dropping
and re-acquiring RCU read lock.
This can be solved by adding a way to traverse to the next sibling
without dereferencing ->sibling.next. This patch adds a monotonically
increasing cgroup serial number, cgroup->serial_nr, which guarantees
that all cgroup->children lists are kept in increasing serial_nr
order. A new function, cgroup_next_sibling(), is implemented, which,
if CGRP_REMOVED is not set on the current cgroup, follows
->sibling.next; otherwise, traverses the parent's ->children list
until it sees a sibling with higher ->serial_nr.
This allows the function to always return the next sibling regardless
of the state of the current cgroup without adding overhead in the fast
path.
Further patches will update the iterators to use cgroup_next_sibling()
so that they allow dropping RCU read lock and blocking while iteration
is in progress which in turn will be used to simplify controllers.

When cgroup_next_descendant_pre() initiates a walk, it checks whether

because the subtree may become empty inbetween, which can lead to the
traversal escaping the subtree by walking to the sibling of the
subtree root.
There's no reason to have the early exit path. Remove it along with
the later assumption that the subtree isn't empty. This simplifies

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
- Fixes and a lot of cleanups. Locking cleanup is finally complete.
cgroup_mutex is no longer exposed to individual controlelrs which
used to cause nasty deadlock issues. Li fixed and cleaned up quite a
bit including long standing ones like racy cgroup_path().
- device cgroup now supports proper hierarchy thanks to Aristeu.
- perf_event cgroup now supports proper hierarchy.
- A new mount option "__DEVEL__sane_behavior" is added. As indicated
by the name, this option is to be used for development only at this
point and generates a warning message when used. Unfortunately,
cgroup interface currently has too many brekages and inconsistencies
to implement a consistent and unified hierarchy on top. The new flag
is used to collect the behavior changes which are necessary to
implement consistent unified hierarchy. It's likely that this flag
won't be used verbatim when it becomes ready but will be enabled
implicitly along with unified hierarchy.
The option currently disables some of broken behaviors in cgroup core
and also .use_hierarchy switch in memcg (will be routed through -mm),
which can be used to make very unusual hierarchy where nesting is
partially honored. It will also be used to implement hierarchy
support for blk-throttle which would be impossible otherwise without
introducing a full separate set of control knobs.
This is essentially versioning of interface which isn't very nice but
at this point I can't see any other options which would allow keeping
the interface the same while moving towards hierarchy behavior which
is at least somewhat sane. The planned unified hierarchy is likely
to require some level of adaptation from userland anyway, so I think
it'd be best to take the chance and update the interface such that
it's supportable in the long term.
Maintaining the existing interface does complicate cgroup core but
shouldn't put too much strain on individual controllers and I think
it'd be manageable for the foreseeable future. Maybe we'll be able
to drop it in a decade.
Fix up conflicts (including a semantic one adding a new #include to ppc
that was uncovered by header the file changes) as per Tejun.

Pull workqueue updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on workqueue side this time. The changes achieve
the followings.
- WQ_UNBOUND workqueues - the workqueues which are per-cpu - are
updated to be able to interface with multiple backend worker pools.
This involved a lot of churning but the end result seems actually
neater as unbound workqueues are now a lot closer to per-cpu ones.
- The ability to interface with multiple backend worker pools are
used to implement unbound workqueues with custom attributes.
Currently the supported attributes are the nice level and CPU
affinity. It may be expanded to include cgroup association in
future. The attributes can be specified either by calling
apply_workqueue_attrs() or through /sys/bus/workqueue/WQ_NAME/* if
the workqueue in question is exported through sysfs.
The backend worker pools are keyed by the actual attributes and
shared by any workqueues which share the same attributes. When
attributes of a workqueue are changed, the workqueue binds to the
worker pool with the specified attributes while leaving the work
items which are already executing in its previous worker pools
alone.
This allows converting custom worker pool implementations which
want worker attribute tuning to use workqueues. The writeback pool
is already converted in block tree and there are a couple others
are likely to follow including btrfs io workers.
- WQ_UNBOUND's ability to bind to multiple worker pools is also used
to make it NUMA-aware. Because there's no association between work
item issuer and the specific worker assigned to execute it, before
this change, using unbound workqueue led to unnecessary cross-node
bouncing and it couldn't be helped by autonuma as it requires tasks
to have implicit node affinity and workers are assigned randomly.
After these changes, an unbound workqueue now binds to multiple
NUMA-affine worker pools so that queued work items are executed in
the same node. This is turned on by default but can be disabled
system-wide or for individual workqueues.
Crypto was requesting NUMA affinity as encrypting data across
different nodes can contribute noticeable overhead and doing it
per-cpu was too limiting for certain cases and IO throughput could
be bottlenecked by one CPU being fully occupied while others have
idle cycles.
While the new features required a lot of changes including
restructuring locking, it didn't complicate the execution paths much.
The unbound workqueue handling is now closer to per-cpu ones and the
new features are implemented by simply associating a workqueue with
different sets of backend worker pools without changing queue,
execution or flush paths.
As such, even though the amount of change is very high, I feel
relatively safe in that it isn't likely to cause subtle issues with
basic correctness of work item execution and handling. If something
is wrong, it's likely to show up as being associated with worker pools
with the wrong attributes or OOPS while workqueue attributes are being
changed or during CPU hotplug.
While this creates more backend worker pools, it doesn't add too many
more workers unless, of course, there are many workqueues with unique
combinations of attributes. Assuming everything else is the same,
NUMA awareness costs an extra worker pool per NUMA node with online
CPUs.
There are also a couple things which are being routed outside the
workqueue tree.
- block tree pulled in workqueue for-3.10 so that writeback worker
pool can be converted to unbound workqueue with sysfs control
exposed. This simplifies the code, makes writeback workers
NUMA-aware and allows tuning nice level and CPU affinity via sysfs.
- The conversion to workqueue means that there's no 1:1 association
between a specific worker, which makes writeback folks unhappy as
they want to be able to tell which filesystem caused a problem from
backtrace on systems with many filesystems mounted. This is
resolved by allowing work items to set debug info string which is
printed when the task is dumped. As this change involves unifying
implementations of dump_stack() and friends in arch codes, it's
being routed through Andrew's -mm tree."

I mistakenly removed the call to eventfd->poll() while I was actually
intending to remove the return value...
Calling evenfd->poll() will hook cgroup_event_wake() to the poll
waitqueue, which will be called to unregister eventfd when rmdir a
cgroup or close eventfd.

Try:
# mount -t cgroup xxx /cgroup
# mkdir /cgroup/sub && rmdir /cgroup/sub && umount /cgroup
And you might see this:
ida_remove called for id=1 which is not allocated.
It's because cgroup_kill_sb() is called to destroy root->cgroup_ida
and free cgrp->root before ida_simple_removed() is called. What's
worse is we're accessing cgrp->root while it has been freed.

We should store file xattrs in struct cfent instead of struct cftype,
because cftype is a type while cfent is object instance of cftype.
For example each cgroup has a tasks file, and each tasks file is
associated with a uniq cfent, but all those files share the same
struct cftype.
Alexey Kodanev reported a crash, which can be reproduced:
# mount -t cgroup -o xattr /sys/fs/cgroup
# mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
# setfattr -n trusted.value -v test_value /sys/fs/cgroup/tasks
# rmdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
# umount /sys/fs/cgroup
oops!
In this case, simple_xattrs_free() will free the same struct simple_xattrs
twice.

It's a sad fact that at this point various cgroup controllers are
carrying so many idiosyncrasies and pure insanities that it simply
isn't possible to reach any sort of sane consistent behavior while
maintaining staying fully compatible with what already has been
exposed to userland.
As we can't break exposed userland interface, transitioning to sane
behaviors can only be done in steps while maintaining backwards
compatibility. This patch introduces a new mount option -
__DEVEL__sane_behavior - which disables crazy features and enforces
consistent behaviors in cgroup core proper and various controllers.
As exactly which behaviors it changes are still being determined, the
mount option, at this point, is useful only for development of the new
behaviors. As such, the mount option is prefixed with __DEVEL__ and
generates a warning message when used.
Eventually, once we get to the point where all controller's behaviors
are consistent enough to implement unified hierarchy, the __DEVEL__
prefix will be dropped, and more importantly, unified-hierarchy will
enforce sane_behavior by default. Maybe we'll able to completely drop
the crazy stuff after a while, maybe not, but we at least have a
strategy to move on to saner behaviors.
This patch introduces the mount option and changes the following
behaviors in cgroup core.
* Mount options "noprefix" and "clone_children" are disallowed. Also,
cgroupfs file cgroup.clone_children is not created.
* When mounting an existing superblock, mount options should match.
This is currently pretty crazy. If one mounts a cgroup, creates a
subdirectory, unmounts it and then mount it again with different
option, it looks like the new options are applied but they aren't.
* Remount is disallowed.
The behaviors changes are documented in the comment above
CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR enum and will be expanded as different
controllers are converted and planned improvements progress.
v2: Dropped unnecessary explicit file permission setting sane_behavior
cftype entry as suggested by Li Zefan.
