cgroup_is_descendant() currently walks up the hierarchy and compares
each ancestor to the cgroup in question. 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.

6f60eade24 ("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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

sane_behavior has been used as a development vehicle for the default
unified hierarchy. Now that the default hierarchy is in place, the
flag became redundant and confusing as its usage is allowed on all
hierarchies. There are gonna be either the default hierarchy or
legacy ones. Let's make that clear by removing sane_behavior support
on non-default hierarchies.
This patch replaces cgroup_sane_behavior() with cgroup_on_dfl(). The
comment on top of CGRP_ROOT_SANE_BEHAVIOR is moved to on top of
cgroup_on_dfl() with sane_behavior specific part dropped.
On the default and legacy hierarchies w/o sane_behavior, this
shouldn't cause any behavior differences.

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
require a way to enable a subsystem even when it's not directly
configured through "cgroup.subtree_control".
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.
This patch adds cgroup_subsys->css_reset() which is invoked when a css
is hidden. The callback should disable resource control and reset the
state to the vanilla state.

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
for debugging itself once the related parts are working reliably.
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

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.

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.

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.

During the recent conversion to kernfs, cftype's seq_file operations
are updated so that they are directly mapped to kernfs operations and
thus can fully access the associated kernfs and cgroup contexts;
however, write path hasn't seen similar updates and none of the
existing write operations has access to, for example, the associated
kernfs_open_file.
Let's introduce a new operation cftype->write() which maps directly to
the kernfs write operation and has access to all the arguments and
contexts. This will replace ->write_string() and ->trigger() and ease
manipulation of kernfs active protection from cgroup file operations.
Two accessors - of_cft() and of_css() - are introduced to enable

only takes kernfs_open_file for the context information. The

cgroup users often need a way to determine when a cgroup's
subhierarchy becomes empty so that it can be cleaned up. cgroup
currently provides release_agent for it; unfortunately, this mechanism
is riddled with issues.
* It delivers events by forking and execing a userland binary
specified as the release_agent. This is a long deprecated method of
notification delivery. It's extremely heavy, slow and cumbersome to
integrate with larger infrastructure.
* There is single monitoring point at the root. There's no way to
delegate management of a subtree.
* The event isn't recursive. It triggers when a cgroup doesn't have
any tasks or child cgroups. Events for internal nodes trigger only
after all children are removed. This again makes it impossible to
delegate management of a subtree.
* Events are filtered from the kernel side. "notify_on_release" file
is used to subscribe to or suppress release event. This is
unnecessarily complicated and probably done this way because event
delivery itself was expensive.
This patch implements interface file "cgroup.populated" which can be
used to monitor whether the cgroup's subhierarchy has tasks in it or
not. Its value is 0 if there is no task in the cgroup and its
descendants; otherwise, 1, and kernfs_notify() notificaiton is
triggers when the value changes, which can be monitored through poll
and [di]notify.
This is a lot ligther and simpler and trivially allows delegating
management of subhierarchy - subhierarchy monitoring can block further
propgation simply by putting itself or another process in the root of
the subhierarchy and monitor events that it's interested in from there
without interfering with monitoring higher in the tree.
v2: Patch description updated as per Serge.
v3: "cgroup.subtree_populated" renamed to "cgroup.populated". The
subtree_ prefix was a bit confusing because

cgroup is switching away from multiple hierarchies and will use one
unified default hierarchy where controllers can be dynamically enabled
and disabled per subtree. The default hierarchy will serve as the
unified hierarchy to which all controllers are attached and a css on
the default hierarchy would need to also serve the tasks of descendant
cgroups which don't have the controller enabled - ie. the tree may be
collapsed from leaf towards root when viewed from specific
controllers. This has been implemented through effective css in the
previous patches.
This patch finally implements dynamic subtree controller
enable/disable on the default hierarchy via a new knob -
"cgroup.subtree_control" which controls which controllers are enabled
on the child cgroups. Let's assume a hierarchy like the following.
root - A - B - C
\ D
root's "cgroup.subtree_control" determines which controllers are
enabled on A. A's on B. B's on C and D. This coincides with the
fact that controllers on the immediate sub-level are used to
distribute the resources of the parent. In fact, it's natural to
assume that resource control knobs of a child belong to its parent.
Enabling a controller in "cgroup.subtree_control" declares that
distribution of the respective resources of the cgroup will be
controlled. Note that this means that controller enable states are
shared among siblings.
The default hierarchy has an extra restriction - only cgroups which
don't contain any task may have controllers enabled in
"cgroup.subtree_control". Combined with the other properties of the
default hierarchy, this guarantees that, from the view point of
controllers, tasks are only on the leaf cgroups. In other words, only
leaf csses may contain tasks. This rules out situations where child
cgroups compete against internal tasks of the parent, which is a
competition between two different types of entities without any clear
way to determine resource distribution between the two. Different
controllers handle it differently and all the implemented behaviors
are ambiguous, ad-hoc, cumbersome and/or just wrong. Having this
structural constraints imposed from cgroup core removes the burden
from controller implementations and enables showing one consistent
behavior across all controllers.
When a controller is enabled or disabled, css associations for the
controller in the subtrees of each child should be updated. After
enabling, the whole subtree of a child should point to the new css of
the child. After disabling, the whole subtree of a child should point
to the cgroup's css. This is implemented by first updating cgroup
states such that cgroup_e_css() result points to the appropriate css
and then invoking cgroup_update_dfl_csses() which migrates all tasks
in the affected subtrees to the self cgroup on the default hierarchy.
* When read, "cgroup.subtree_control" lists all the currently enabled
controllers on the children of the cgroup.
* White-space separated list of controller names prefixed with either
'+' or '-' can be written to "cgroup.subtree_control". The ones
prefixed with '+' are enabled on the controller and '-' disabled.
* A controller can be enabled iff the parent's
"cgroup.subtree_control" enables it and disabled iff no child's
"cgroup.subtree_control" has it enabled.
* If a cgroup has tasks, no controller can be enabled via
"cgroup.subtree_control". Likewise, if "cgroup.subtree_control" has
some controllers enabled, tasks can't be migrated into the cgroup.
* All controllers which aren't bound on other hierarchies are
automatically associated with the root cgroup of the default
hierarchy. All the controllers which are bound to the default
hierarchy are listed in the read-only file "cgroup.controllers" in
the root directory.
* "cgroup.controllers" in all non-root cgroups is read-only file whose
content is equal to that of "cgroup.subtree_control" of the parent.
This indicates which controllers can be used in the cgroup's
"cgroup.subtree_control".
This is still experimental and there are some holes, one of which is
that ->can_attach() failure during cgroup_update_dfl_csses() may leave
the cgroups in an undefined state. The issues will be addressed by
future patches.
v2: Non-root cgroups now also have "cgroup.controllers".

Currently, css_task_iter iterates tasks associated with a css by
visiting each css_set associated with the owning cgroup and walking
tasks of each of them. This works fine for !unified hierarchies as
each cgroup has its own css for each associated subsystem on the
hierarchy; however, on the planned unified hierarchy, a cgroup may not
have csses associated and its tasks would be considered associated
with the matching css of the nearest ancestor which has the subsystem
enabled.
This means that on the default unified hierarchy, just walking all
tasks associated with a cgroup isn't enough to walk all tasks which
are associated with the specified css. If any of its children doesn't
have the matching css enabled, task iteration should also include all
tasks from the subtree. We already added cgroup->e_csets[] to list
all css_sets effectively associated with a given css and walk css_sets
on that list instead to achieve such iteration.
This patch updates css_task_iter iteration such that it walks css_sets
on cgroup->e_csets[] instead of cgroup->cset_links if iteration is
requested on an non-dummy css. Thanks to the previous iteration
update, this change can be achieved with the addition of
css_task_iter->ss and minimal updates to css_advance_task_iter() and
css_task_iter_start().

* css_task_iter_next() currently assumes that it's walking list of
cgrp_cset_link and reaches into the current cset through the current
link to determine the termination conditions for task walking. As
this won't always be true for effective css walking, add
->tasks_head and ->mg_tasks_head and use them to control task
walking so that css_task_iter_next() doesn't have to know how
css_sets are being walked.

On the default unified hierarchy, a cgroup may be associated with
csses of its ancestors, which means that a css of a given cgroup may
be associated with css_sets of descendant cgroups. This means that we
can't walk all tasks associated with a css by iterating the css_sets
associated with the cgroup as there are css_sets which are pointing to
the css but linked on the descendants.
This patch adds per-subsystem list heads cgroup->e_csets[]. Any
css_set which is pointing to a css is linked to
css->cgroup->e_csets[$SUBSYS_ID] through
css_set->e_cset_node[$SUBSYS_ID]. The lists are protected by
css_set_rwsem and will allow us to walk all css_sets associated with a

* For backward compatibility, the default hierarchy shows up in

userland which doesn't make use of it doesn't see any change.

cgroupfs_root->subsys_mask represents the controllers attached to the

For !root cgroups, the subsys_mask bits are set from create_css() and

While this doesn't make any difference now, this will help

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.

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

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

That flag is CGRP_ROOT_SUBSYS_BOUND and no longer necessary after the

root->number_of_cgroups is currently an integer protected with

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

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.

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

cftype->max_write_len is used to extend the maximum size of writes.
It's interpreted in such a way that the actual maximum size is one
less than the specified value. The default size is defined by
CGROUP_LOCAL_BUFFER_SIZE. Its interpretation is quite confusing - its
value is decremented by 1 and then compared for equality with max
size, which means that the actual default size is
CGROUP_LOCAL_BUFFER_SIZE - 2, which is 62 chars.
There's no point in having a limit that low. Update its definition so
that it means the actual string length sans termination and anything
below PAGE_SIZE-1 is treated as PAGE_SIZE-1.
.max_write_len for "release_agent" is updated to PATH_MAX-1 and
cgroup_release_agent_write() is updated so that the redundant strlen()
check is removed and it uses strlcpy() instead of strcpy().
.max_write_len initializations in blk-throttle.c and cfq-iosched.c are
no longer necessary and removed. The one in cpuset is kept unchanged
as it's an approximated value to begin with.
This will also make transition to kernfs smoother.

Currently, cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes registration is different from
dynamic cftypes registartion. Instead of going through
cgroup_add_cftypes(), cgroup_init_subsys() invokes
cgroup_init_cftsets() which makes use of cgroup_subsys->base_cftset
which doesn't involve dynamic allocation.
While avoiding dynamic allocation is somewhat nice, having two
separate paths for cftypes registration is nasty, especially as we're
planning to add more operations during cftypes registration.
This patch drops cgroup_init_cftsets() and cgroup_subsys->base_cftset
and registers base_cftypes using cgroup_add_cftypes(). This is done
as a separate step in cgroup_init() instead of a part of
cgroup_init_subsys(). This is because cgroup_init_subsys() can be
called very early during boot when kmalloc() isn't available yet.

css_from_dir() returns the matching css (cgroup_subsys_state) given a
dentry and subsystem. The function doesn't pin the css before
returning and requires the caller to be holding RCU read lock or
cgroup_mutex and handling pinning on the caller side.
Given that users of the function are likely to want to pin the
returned css (both existing users do) and that getting and putting
css's are very cheap, there's no reason for the interface to be tricky
like this.
Rename css_from_dir() to css_tryget_from_dir() and make it try to pin
the found css and return it only if pinning succeeded. The callers
are updated so that they no longer do RCU locking and pinning around
the function and just use the returned css.
This will also ease converting cgroup to kernfs.

cgroup_subsys is a bit messier than it needs to be.
* The name of a subsys can be different from its internal identifier
defined in cgroup_subsys.h. Most subsystems use the matching name
but three - cpu, memory and perf_event - use different ones.
* cgroup_subsys_id enums are postfixed with _subsys_id and each
cgroup_subsys is postfixed with _subsys. cgroup.h is widely
included throughout various subsystems, it doesn't and shouldn't
have claim on such generic names which don't have any qualifier
indicating that they belong to cgroup.
* cgroup_subsys->subsys_id should always equal the matching
cgroup_subsys_id enum; however, we require each controller to
initialize it and then BUG if they don't match, which is a bit
silly.
This patch cleans up cgroup_subsys names and initialization by doing
the followings.
* cgroup_subsys_id enums are now postfixed with _cgrp_id, and each
cgroup_subsys with _cgrp_subsys.
* With the above, renaming subsys identifiers to match the userland
visible names doesn't cause any naming conflicts. All non-matching
identifiers are renamed to match the official names.
cpu_cgroup -> cpu
mem_cgroup -> memory
perf -> perf_event
* controllers no longer need to initialize ->subsys_id and ->name.
They're generated in cgroup core and set automatically during boot.
* Redundant cgroup_subsys declarations removed.
* While updating BUG_ON()s in cgroup_init_early(), convert them to
WARN()s. BUGging that early during boot is stupid - the kernel
can't print anything, even through serial console and the trap
handler doesn't even link stack frame properly for back-tracing.

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is
updated so that it can be easily mapped to kernfs. With the previous
changes, the difference between pidlist and other files are very
small. Both are served by seq_file in a pretty standard way with the
only difference being !pidlist files use single_open().
This patch adds cftype->seq_start(), ->seq_next and ->seq_stop() and
implements the matching cgroup_seqfile_start/next/stop() which either
emulates single_open() behavior or invokes cftype->seq_*() operations
if specified. This allows using single seq_operations for both
pidlist and other files and makes cgroup_pidlist_operations and
cgorup_pidlist_open() no longer necessary. As cgroup_pidlist_open()
was the only user of cftype->open(), the method is dropped together.
This brings cftype file interface very close to kernfs interface and
mapping shouldn't be too difficult. Once converted to kernfs, most of
the plumbing code including cgroup_seqfile_*() will be removed as
kernfs provides those facilities.
This patch does not introduce any behavior changes.

not limited to single_open() operation and will map directcly to

The conversions are mechanical. As ->seq_show() doesn't have @css and
@cft, the functions which make use of them are converted to use
seq_css() and seq_cft() respectively. In several occassions, e.f. if
it has seq_string in its name, the function name is updated to fit the

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is
updated so that it can be easily mapped to kernfs. This patch
attaches cgroup_open_file, which used to be attached to pidlist files,
to all cgroup files, introduces seq_css/cft() accessors to determine
the cgroup_subsys_state and cftype associated with a given cgroup
seq_file, exports them as public interface.
This doesn't cause any behavior changes but unifies cgroup file
handling across different file types and will help converting them to
kernfs seq_show() interface.
v2: Li pointed out that the original patch was using
single_open_size() incorrectly assuming that the size param is

cgroup_event is way over-designed and tries to build a generic
flexible event mechanism into cgroup - fully customizable event
specification for each user of the interface. This is utterly
unnecessary and overboard especially in the light of the planned
unified hierarchy as there's gonna be single agent. Simply generating
events at fixed points, or if that's too restrictive, configureable
cadence or single set of configureable points should be enough.
Thankfully, memcg is the only user and gets to keep it. Replacing it
with something simpler on sane_behavior is strongly recommended.
This patch moves cgroup_event and "cgroup.event_control"
implementation to mm/memcontrol.c. Clearing of events on cgroup
destruction is moved from cgroup_destroy_locked() to
mem_cgroup_css_offline(), which shouldn't make any noticeable
difference.
cgroup_css() and __file_cft() are exported to enable the move;
however, this will soon be reverted once the event code is updated to
be memcg specific.
Note that "cgroup.event_control" will now exist only on the hierarchy
with memcg attached to it. While this change is visible to userland,
it is unlikely to be noticeable as the file has never been meaningful
outside memcg.
Aside from the above change, this is pure code relocation.

With the planned unified hierarchy, individual css's will be created
and destroyed dynamically across the lifetime of a cgroup. To enable
such usages, css destruction is being decoupled from cgroup
destruction. Most of the destruction path has been decoupled but the
actual free of css still depends on cgroup free path.
When all css refs are drained, css_release() kicks off
css_free_work_fn() which puts the cgroup. When the cgroup refcnt
reaches zero, cgroup_diput() is invoked which in turn schedules RCU
free of the cgroup. After a grace period, all css's are freed along
with the cgroup itself.
This patch moves the RCU grace period and css freeing from cgroup
release path to css release path. css_release(), instead of kicking
off css_free_work_fn() directly, schedules RCU callback
css_free_rcu_fn() which in turn kicks off css_free_work_fn() after a
RCU grace period. css_free_work_fn() is updated to free the css
directly.
The five-way punting - percpu ref kill confirmation, a work item,
percpu ref release, RCU grace period, and again a work item - is quite
hairy but the work items are there only to provide process context and
the actual sequence is kill confirm -> release -> RCU free, which
isn't simple but not too crazy.
This removes cgroup_css() usage after offline_css() allowing clearing
cgroup->subsys[] from offline_css(), which makes it consistent with
online_css() and brings it closer to proper lifetime management for
individual css's.

Currently, css (cgroup_subsys_state) lifetime is tied to that of the
associated cgroup. css's are created when the associated cgroup is
created and destroyed when it gets destroyed. Also, individual css's
aren't RCU protected but the whole cgroup is. With the planned
unified hierarchy, css's will need to be dynamically created and
destroyed within the lifetime of a cgroup.
To enable such usages, this patch decouples css destruction from
cgroup destruction - offline_css() invocation and the final css_put()
are moved from cgroup_destroy_css_killed() to css_killed_work_fn().
Now each css is individually offlined and put as its reference count
is killed instead of waiting for all css's attached to the cgroup to
finish refcnt killing and then proceeding to offlining and putting
them together.

Currently, css (cgroup_subsys_state) lifetime is tied to that of the
associated cgroup. With the planned unified hierarchy, css's will be
dynamically created and destroyed within the lifetime of a cgroup. To
enable such usages, css's will be individually RCU protected instead
of being tied to the cgroup.
cgroup->css_kill_cnt is used during cgroup destruction to wait for css
reference count disable; however, this model doesn't work once css's
lifetimes are managed separately from cgroup's. This patch replaces
it with cgroup->nr_css which is an cgroup_mutex protected integer
counting the number of attached css's. The count is incremented from
online_css() and decremented after refcnt kill is confirmed. If the
count reaches zero and the cgroup is marked dead, the second stage of
cgroup destruction is kicked off. If a cgroup doesn't have any css
attached at the time of rmdir, cgroup_destroy_locked() now invokes the
second stage directly as no css kill confirmation would happen.
cgroup_offline_fn() - the second step of cgroup destruction - is
renamed to cgroup_destroy_css_killed() and now expects to be called
with cgroup_mutex held.
While this patch changes how css destruction is punted to work items,
it shouldn't change any visible behavior.

For the planned unified hierarchy, each css (cgroup_subsys_state) will
be RCU protected so that it can be created and destroyed individually
while allowing RCU accesses. Previous changes ensured that all
cgroup->subsys[] accesses use the cgroup_css() accessor. This patch
adds __rcu modifier to cgroup->subsys[], add matching RCU dereference
in cgroup_css() and convert all assignments to either
rcu_assign_pointer() or RCU_INIT_POINTER().
This change prepares for the actual RCUfication of css's and doesn't
introduce any visible behavior change. The conversion is verified
with sparse and all accesses are properly RCU annotated.

With the planned unified hierarchy, css's (cgroup_subsys_state) will
be RCU protected and allowed to be attached and detached dynamically
over the course of a cgroup's lifetime. This means that css's will
stay accessible after being detached from its cgroup - the matching
pointer in cgroup->subsys[] cleared - for ref draining and RCU grace
period.
cgroup core still wants to guarantee that the parent css is never
destroyed before its children and css_parent() always returns the
parent regardless of the state of the child css as long as it's
accessible.
This patch makes css's hold onto their parents and adds css->parent so
that the parent css is never detroyed before its children and can be
determined without consulting the cgroups.
cgroup->dummy_css is also updated to point to the parent dummy_css;
however, it doesn't need to worry about object lifetime as the parent
cgroup is already pinned by the child.

css (cgroup_subsys_state) will become RCU protected and there will be
two stages which require punting to work item during release. To
prepare for using the work item for multiple times, rename
css->dput_work to css->destroy_work and css_dput_fn() to
css_free_work_fn() and move work item initialization from css init to
right before the actual usage.

Previously, all css descendant iterators didn't include the origin
(root of subtree) css in the iteration. The reasons were maintaining
consistency with css_for_each_child() and that at the time of
introduction more use cases needed skipping the origin anyway;
however, given that css_is_descendant() considers self to be a
descendant, omitting the origin css has become more confusing and
looking at the accumulated use cases rather clearly indicates that
including origin would result in simpler code overall.
While this is a change which can easily lead to subtle bugs, cgroup
API including the iterators has recently gone through major
restructuring and no out-of-tree changes will be applicable without
adjustments making this a relatively acceptable opportunity for this
type of change.
The conversions are mostly straight-forward. If the iteration block
had explicit origin handling before or after, it's moved inside the
iteration. If not, if (pos == origin) continue; is added. Some
conversions add extra reference get/put around origin handling by
consolidating origin handling and the rest. While the extra ref
operations aren't strictly necessary, this shouldn't cause any
noticeable difference.

cgroup_css() no longer has any user left outside cgroup.c proper and
we don't want subsystems to grow new usages of the function. cgroup
core should always provide the css to use to the subsystems, which
will make dynamic creation and destruction of css's across the
lifetime of a cgroup much more manageable than exposing the cgroup
directly to subsystems and let them dereference css's from it.
Make cgroup_css() a static function in cgroup.c.

cgroup is in the process of converting to css (cgroup_subsys_state)
from cgroup as the principal subsystem interface handle. This is
mostly to prepare for the unified hierarchy support where css's will
be created and destroyed dynamically but also helps cleaning up
subsystem implementations as css is usually what they are interested
in anyway.
cgroup_taskset which is used by the subsystem attach methods is the
last cgroup subsystem API which isn't using css as the handle. Update
cgroup_taskset_cur_cgroup() to cgroup_taskset_cur_css() and

cgroup_scan_tasks() takes a pointer to struct cgroup_scanner as its
sole argument and the only function of that struct is packing the
arguments of the function call which are consisted of five fields.
It's not too unusual to pack parameters into a struct when the number
of arguments gets excessive or the whole set needs to be passed around
a lot, but neither holds here making it just weird.
Drop struct cgroup_scanner and pass the params directly to
cgroup_scan_tasks(). Note that struct cpuset_change_nodemask_arg was
added to cpuset.c to pass both ->cs and ->newmems pointer to
cpuset_change_nodemask() using single data pointer.

cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using css

subsystem API. For hierarchy iterators, this is beneficial because
* In most cases, css is the only thing subsystems care about anyway.
* On the planned unified hierarchy, iterations for different
subsystems will need to skip over different subtrees of the
hierarchy depending on which subsystems are enabled on each cgroup.
Passing around css makes it unnecessary to explicitly specify the
subsystem in question as css is intersection between cgroup and
subsystem
* For the planned unified hierarchy, css's would need to be created
and destroyed dynamically independent from cgroup hierarchy. Having
cgroup core manage css iteration makes enforcing deref rules a lot
easier.
Most subsystem conversions are straight-forward. Noteworthy changes
are
* blkio: cgroup_to_blkcg() is no longer used. Removed.
* freezer: cgroup_freezer() is no longer used. Removed.
* devices: cgroup_to_devcgroup() is no longer used. Removed.

This patch converts all cftype file operations to take @css instead of

cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct
cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup *
in subsystem implementations for the following reasons.
* With unified hierarchy, subsystems will be dynamically bound and
unbound from cgroups and thus css's (cgroup_subsys_state) may be
created and destroyed dynamically over the lifetime of a cgroup,
which is different from the current state where all css's are
allocated and destroyed together with the associated cgroup. This
in turn means that cgroup_css() should be synchronized and may
return NULL, making it more cumbersome to use.
* Differing levels of per-subsystem granularity in the unified
hierarchy means that the task and descendant iterators should behave
differently depending on the specific subsystem the iteration is
being performed for.
* In majority of the cases, subsystems only care about its part in the
cgroup hierarchy - ie. the hierarchy of css's. Subsystem methods
often obtain the matching css pointer from the cgroup and don't
bother with the cgroup pointer itself. Passing around css fits
much better.
This patch converts all cgroup_subsys methods to take @css instead of
@cgroup. The conversions are mostly straight-forward. A few
noteworthy changes are
* ->css_alloc() now takes css of the parent cgroup rather than the
pointer to the new cgroup as the css for the new cgroup doesn't
exist yet. Knowing the parent css is enough for all the existing
subsystems.
* In kernel/cgroup.c::offline_css(), unnecessary open coded css
dereference is replaced with local variable access.
This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences.
v2: Unnecessary explicit cgrp->subsys[] deref in css_online() replaced
with local variable @css as suggested by Li Zefan.
Rebased on top of new for-3.12 which includes for-3.11-fixes so
that ->css_free() invocation added by da0a12caff ("cgroup: fix a
leak when percpu_ref_init() fails") is converted too. Suggested

Currently, controllers have to explicitly follow the cgroup hierarchy
to find the parent of a given css. cgroup is moving towards using
cgroup_subsys_state as the main controller interface construct, so
let's provide a way to climb the hierarchy using just csses.
This patch implements css_parent() which, given a css, returns its
parent. The function is guarnateed to valid non-NULL parent css as
long as the target css is not at the top of the hierarchy.
freezer, cpuset, cpu, cpuacct, hugetlb, memory, net_cls and devices
are converted to use css_parent() instead of accessing cgroup->parent
directly.
* __parent_ca() is dropped from cpuacct and its usage is replaced with
parent_ca(). The only difference between the two was NULL test on
cgroup->parent which is now embedded in css_parent() making the
distinction moot. Note that eventually a css->parent field will be
added to css and the NULL check in css_parent() will go away.
