ce27e317ba cgroup: cgroup_rm_files() was calling simple_unlink() with the wrong inode
While refactoring cgroup file removal path, 05ef1d7c4a "cgroup:
introduce struct cfent" incorrectly changed the @dir argument of
simple_unlink() to the inode of the file being deleted instead of that
of the containing directory.

The effect of this bug is minor - ctime and mtime of the parent
weren't properly updated on file deletion.

Fix it by using @cgrp->dentry->d_inode instead.

5db9a4d99b cgroup: fix cgroup hierarchy umount race
48ddbe1946 "cgroup: make css->refcnt clearing on cgroup removal
optional" allowed a css to linger after the associated cgroup is
removed.  As a css holds a reference on the cgroup's dentry, it means
that cgroup dentries may linger for a while.

Destroying a superblock which has dentries with positive refcnts is a
critical bug and triggers BUG() in vfs code.  As each cgroup dentry
holds an s_active reference, any lingering cgroup has both its dentry
and the superblock pinned and thus preventing premature release of
superblock.

Unfortunately, after 48ddbe1946, there's a small window while
releasing a cgroup which is directly under the root of the hierarchy.
When a cgroup directory is released, vfs layer first deletes the
corresponding dentry and then invokes dput() on the parent, which may
recurse further, so when a cgroup directly below root cgroup is
released, the cgroup is first destroyed - which releases the s_active
it was holding - and then the dentry for the root cgroup is dput().

This creates a window where the root dentry's refcnt isn't zero but
superblock's s_active is.  If umount happens before or during this
window, vfs will see the root dentry with non-zero refcnt and trigger
BUG().

Before 48ddbe1946, this problem didn't exist because the last dentry
reference was guaranteed to be put synchronously from rmdir(2)
invocation which holds s_active around the whole process.

Fix it by holding an extra superblock->s_active reference across
dput() from css release, which is the dput() path added by 48ddbe1946
and the only one which doesn't hold an extra s_active ref across the
final cgroup dput().

7db5b3ca0e Revert "cgroup: superblock can't be released with active dentries"
This reverts commit fa980ca87d.  The
commit was an attempt to fix a race condition where a cgroup hierarchy
may be unmounted with positive dentry reference on root cgroup.  While
the commit made the race condition slightly more difficult to trigger,
the race was still there and could be reliably triggered using a
different test case.

Revert the incorrect fix.  The next commit will describe the race and
fix it correctly.

8e3bbf42c6 cgroups: Account for CSS_DEACT_BIAS in __css_put
When we fixed the race between atomic_dec and css_refcnt, we missed
the fact that css_refcnt internally subtracts CSS_DEACT_BIAS to get
the actual reference count.  This can potentially cause a refcount leak
if __css_put races with cgroup_clear_css_refs.

967db0ea65 cgroup: make sure that decisions in __css_put are atomic
__css_put is using atomic_dec on the ref count, and then
looking at the ref count to make decisions.  This is prone
to races, as someone else may decrement ref count between
our decrement and our decision.  Instead, we should base our
decisions on the value that we decremented the ref count to.

(This results in an actual race on Google's kernel which I
haven't been able to reproduce on the upstream kernel.  Having
said that, it's still incorrect by inspection).

fa980ca87d cgroup: superblock can't be released with active dentries
48ddbe1946 "cgroup: make css->refcnt clearing on cgroup removal
optional" allowed a css to linger after the associated cgroup is
removed.  As a css holds a reference on the cgroup's dentry, it means
that cgroup dentries may linger for a while.

cgroup_create() does grab an active reference on the superblock to
prevent it from going away while there are !root cgroups; however, the
reference is put from cgroup_diput() which is invoked on cgroup
removal, so cgroup dentries which are removed but persisting due to
lingering csses already have released their superblock active refs
allowing superblock to be killed while those dentries are around.

Given the right condition, this makes cgroup_kill_sb() call
kill_litter_super() with dentries with non-zero d_count leading to
BUG() in shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree().

Fix it by adding cgroup_dops->d_release() operation and moving
deactivate_super() to it.  cgroup_diput() now marks dentry->d_fsdata
with itself if superblock should be deactivated and cgroup_d_release()
deactivates the superblock on dentry release.

644473e9c6 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace enhancements from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a course correction for the user namespace, so that we can
  reach an inexpensive, maintainable, and reasonably complete
  implementation.

  Highlights:
   - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and
     code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe.

   - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the
     config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable
     user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission
     checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe.

   - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial
     user namespace before they are processed.  Removing the need to add
     an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared
     uids remains the same.

   - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or
     better than it is today.

   - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or
     operationally with the user namespace enabled.

   - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1
     billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code
     enabled.  This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to
     164ns per stat operation).

   - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value.
     Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially
     anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause
     entertaining failures in userspace.

   - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails.
     I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I
     could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and
     handle the case where setuid fails.

   - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which
     we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid.  The LFS
     experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be
     better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I
     can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we
     can't map.

   - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it
     safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.

  My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core
  kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

c4c27fbdda cgroups: disallow attaching kthreadd or PF_THREAD_BOUND threads

rendering the cpuset immortal.

48ddbe1946 cgroup: make css->refcnt clearing on cgroup removal optional
Currently, cgroup removal tries to drain all css references.  If there
are active css references, the removal logic waits and retries
->pre_detroy() until either all refs drop to zero or removal is
cancelled.

This semantics is unusual and adds non-trivial complexity to cgroup
core and IMHO is fundamentally misguided in that it couples internal
implementation details (references to internal data structure) with
externally visible operation (rmdir).  To userland, this is a behavior
peculiarity which is unnecessary and difficult to expect (css refs is
otherwise invisible from userland), and, to policy implementations,
this is an unnecessary restriction (e.g. blkcg wants to hold css refs
for caching purposes but can't as that becomes visible as rmdir hang).

Unfortunately, memcg currently depends on ->pre_destroy() retrials and
cgroup removal vetoing and can't be immmediately switched to the new
behavior.  This patch introduces the new behavior of not waiting for
css refs to drain and maintains the old behavior for subsystems which
have __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs set.

Once, memcg is updated, we can drop the code paths for the old
behavior as proposed in the following patch.  Note that the following
patch is incorrect in that dput work item is in cgroup and may lose
some of dputs when multiples css's are released back-to-back, and
__css_put() triggers check_for_release() when refcnt reaches 0 instead
of 1; however, it shows what part can be removed.

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.containers/22559/focus=75251

Note that, in not-too-distant future, cgroup core will start emitting
warning messages for subsys which require the old behavior, so please
get moving.

28b4c27b8e cgroup: use negative bias on css->refcnt to block css_tryget()
When a cgroup is about to be removed, cgroup_clear_css_refs() is
called to check and ensure that there are no active css references.

This is currently achieved by dropping the refcnt to zero iff it has
only the base ref.  If all css refs could be dropped to zero, ref
clearing is successful and CSS_REMOVED is set on all css.  If not, the
base ref is restored.  While css ref is zero w/o CSS_REMOVED set, any
css_tryget() attempt on it busy loops so that they are atomic
w.r.t. the whole css ref clearing.

This does work but dropping and re-instating the base ref is somewhat
hairy and makes it difficult to add more logic to the put path as
there are two of them - the regular css_put() and the reversible base
ref clearing.

This patch updates css ref clearing such that blocking new
css_tryget() and putting the base ref are separate operations.
CSS_DEACT_BIAS, defined as INT_MIN, is added to css->refcnt and
css_tryget() busy loops while refcnt is negative.  After all css refs
are deactivated, if they were all one, ref clearing succeeded and
CSS_REMOVED is set and the base ref is put using the regular
css_put(); otherwise, CSS_DEACT_BIAS is subtracted from the refcnts
and the original postive values are restored.

css_refcnt() accessor which always returns the unbiased positive
reference counts is added and used to simplify refcnt usages.  While
at it, relocate and reformat comments in cgroup_has_css_refs().

This separates css->refcnt deactivation and putting the base ref,
which enables the next patch to make ref clearing optional.

05ef1d7c4a cgroup: introduce struct cfent
This patch adds cfent (cgroup file entry) which is the association
between a cgroup and a file.  This is in-cgroup representation of
files under a cgroup directory.  This simplifies walking walking
cgroup files and thus cgroup_clear_directory(), which is now
implemented in two parts - cgroup_rm_file() and a loop around it.

cgroup_rm_file() will be used to implement cftype removal and cfent is
scheduled to serve cgroup specific per-file data (e.g. for sysfs-like
"sever" semantics).

v2: - cfe was freed from cgroup_rm_file() which led to use-after-free
      if the file had openers at the time of removal.  Moved to
      cgroup_diput().

    - cgroup_clear_directory() triggered WARN_ON_ONCE() if d_subdirs
      wasn't empty after removing all files.  This triggered
      spuriously if some files were open during directory clearing.
      Removed.

v3: - In cgroup_diput(), WARN_ONCE(!list_empty(&cfe->node)) could be
      spuriously triggered for root cgroups because they don't go
      through cgroup_clear_directory() on unmount.  Don't trigger WARN
      for root cgroups.

8e3f6541d4 cgroup: implement cgroup_add_cftypes() and friends
Currently, cgroup directories are populated by subsys->populate()
callback explicitly creating files on each cgroup creation.  This
level of flexibility isn't needed or desirable.  It provides largely
unused flexibility which call for abuses while severely limiting what
the core layer can do through the lack of structure and conventions.

Per each cgroup file type, the only distinction that cgroup users is
making is whether a cgroup is root or not, which can easily be
expressed with flags.

This patch introduces cgroup_add_cftypes().  These deal with cftypes
instead of individual files - controllers indicate that certain types
of files exist for certain subsystem.  Newly added CFTYPE_*_ON_ROOT
flags indicate whether a cftype should be excluded or created only on
the root cgroup.

cgroup_add_cftypes() can be called any time whether the target
subsystem is currently attached or not.  cgroup core will create files
on the existing cgroups as necessary.

Also, cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes is added to ease registration of the
base files for the subsystem.  If non-NULL on subsys init, the cftypes
pointed to by ->base_cftypes are automatically registered on subsys
init / load.

Further patches will convert the existing users and remove the file
based interface.  Note that this interface allows dynamic addition of
files to an active controller.  This will be used for sub-controller
modularity and unified hierarchy in the longer term.

This patch implements the new mechanism but doesn't apply it to any
user.

v2: replaced DECLARE_CGROUP_CFTYPES[_COND]() with
    cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes, which works better for cgroup_subsys
    which is loaded as module.

ff4c8d503e cgroup: move cgroup_clear_directory() call out of cgroup_populate_dir()
cgroup_populate_dir() currently clears all files and then repopulate
the directory; however, the clearing part is only useful when it's
called from cgroup_remount().  Relocate the invocation to
cgroup_remount().

This is to prepare for further cgroup file handling updates.

8b5a5a9dbc cgroup: deprecate remount option changes
This patch marks the following features for deprecation.

* Rebinding subsys by remount: Never reached useful state - only works
  on empty hierarchies.

* release_agent update by remount: release_agent itself will be
  replaced with conventional fsnotify notification.

v2: Lennart pointed out that "name=" is necessary for mounts w/o any
    controller attached.  Drop "name=" deprecation.

8f121918f2 cgroup: cgroup_attach_task() could return -errno after success
61d1d219c4 "cgroup: remove extra calls to find_existing_css_set" made
cgroup_task_migrate() return void.  An unfortunate side effect was
that cgroup_attach_task() was depending on that function's return
value to clear its @retval on the success path.  On cgroup mounts
without any subsystem with ->can_attach() callback,
cgroup_attach_task() ended up returning @retval without initializing
it on success.

For some reason, gcc failed to warn about it and it didn't cause
cgroup_attach_task() to return non-zero value in many cases, probably
due to difference in register allocation.  When the problem
materializes, systemd fails to populate /systemd cgroup mount and
fails to boot.

Fix it by initializing @retval to zero on declaration.

42aee6c495 cgroup: revert ss_id_lock to spinlock
Commit c1e2ee2dc4 ("memcg: replace ss->id_lock with a rwlock") has now
been seen to cause the unfair behavior we should have expected from
converting a spinlock to an rwlock: softlockup in cgroup_mkdir(), whose
get_new_cssid() is waiting for the wlock, while there are 19 tasks using
the rlock in css_get_next() to get on with their memcg workload (in an
artificial test, admittedly).  Yet lib/idr.c was made suitable for RCU
way back: revert that commit, restoring ss->id_lock to a spinlock.

3ce3230a0c cgroup: Walk task list under tasklist_lock in cgroup_enable_task_cg_list
Walking through the tasklist in cgroup_enable_task_cg_list() inside
an RCU read side critical section is not enough because:

- RCU is not (yet) safe against while_each_thread()

- If we use only RCU, a forking task that has passed cgroup_post_fork()
  without seeing use_task_css_set_links == 1 is not guaranteed to have
  its child immediately visible in the tasklist if we walk through it
  remotely with RCU. In this case it will be missing in its css_set's
  task list.

Thus we need to traverse the list (unfortunately) under the
tasklist_lock. It makes us safe against while_each_thread() and also
make sure we see all forked task that have been added to the tasklist.

As a secondary effect, reading and writing use_task_css_set_links are
now well ordered against tasklist traversing and modification. The new
layout is:

CPU 0                                      CPU 1

use_task_css_set_links = 1                write_lock(tasklist_lock)
read_lock(tasklist_lock)                  add task to tasklist
do_each_thread() {                        write_unlock(tasklist_lock)
	add thread to css set links       if (use_task_css_set_links)
} while_each_thread()                         add thread to css set links
read_unlock(tasklist_lock)

If CPU 0 traverse the list after the task has been added to the tasklist
then it is correctly added to the css set links. OTOH if CPU 0 traverse
the tasklist before the new task had the opportunity to be added to the
tasklist because it was too early in the fork process, then CPU 1
catches up and add the task to the css set links after it added the task
to the tasklist. The right value of use_task_css_set_links is guaranteed
to be visible from CPU 1 due to the LOCK/UNLOCK implicit barrier properties:
the read_unlock on CPU 0 makes the write on use_task_css_set_links happening
and the write_lock on CPU 1 make the read of use_task_css_set_links that comes
afterward to return the correct value.

761b3ef50e cgroup: remove cgroup_subsys argument from callbacks
The argument is not used at all, and it's not necessary, because
a specific callback handler of course knows which subsys it
belongs to.

Now only ->pupulate() takes this argument, because the handlers of
this callback always call cgroup_add_file()/cgroup_add_files().

So we reduce a few lines of code, though the shrinking of object size
is minimal.

61d1d219c4 cgroup: remove extra calls to find_existing_css_set
In cgroup_attach_proc, we indirectly call find_existing_css_set 3
times. It is an expensive call so we want to call it a minimum
of times. This patch only calls it once and stores the result so
that it can be used later on when we call cgroup_task_migrate.

This required modifying cgroup_task_migrate to take the new css_set
(which we obtained from find_css_set) as a parameter. The nice side
effect of this is that cgroup_task_migrate is now identical for
cgroup_attach_task and cgroup_attach_proc. It also now returns a
void since it can never fail.

b78949ebfb cgroup: simplify double-check locking in cgroup_attach_proc
To keep the complexity of the double-check locking in one place, move
the thread_group_leader check up into attach_task_by_pid().  This
allows us to use a goto instead of returning -EAGAIN.

While at it, convert a couple of returns to gotos and use rcu for the
!pid case also in order to simplify the logic.

0d19ea8665 cgroup: fix to allow mounting a hierarchy by name
If we mount a hierarchy with a specified name, the name is unique,
and we can use it to mount the hierarchy without specifying its
set of subsystem names. This feature is documented is
Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt section 2.3

Here's an example:

	# mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,name=myhier xxx /cgroup1
	# mount -t cgroup -o name=myhier xxx /cgroup2

But it was broken by commit 32a8cf235e
(cgroup: make the mount options parsing more accurate)

This fixes the regression.

7e3aa30ac8 cgroup: Remove task_lock() from cgroup_post_fork()
cgroup_post_fork() is protected between threadgroup_change_begin()
and threadgroup_change_end() against concurrent changes of the
child's css_set in cgroup_task_migrate(). Also the child can't
exit and call cgroup_exit() at this stage, this means it's css_set
can't be changed with init_css_set concurrently.

For these reasons, we don't need to hold task_lock() on the child
because it's css_set can only remain stable in this place.

Let's remove the lock there.

v2: Update comment to explain that we are safe against
cgroup_exit()
