Li Zefan 0ab02ca8f8 cgroup: protect modifications to cgroup_idr with cgroup_mutex
Setup cgroupfs like this:
  # mount -t cgroup -o cpuacct xxx /cgroup
  # mkdir /cgroup/sub1
  # mkdir /cgroup/sub2

Then run these two commands:
  # for ((; ;)) { mkdir /cgroup/sub1/tmp && rmdir /mnt/sub1/tmp; } &
  # for ((; ;)) { mkdir /cgroup/sub2/tmp && rmdir /mnt/sub2/tmp; } &

After seconds you may see this warning:

It's because allocating/removing cgroup ID is not properly synchronized.

The bug was introduced when we converted cgroup_ida to cgroup_idr.
While synchronization is already done inside ida_simple_{get,remove}(),
users are responsible for concurrent calls to idr_{alloc,remove}().

Tejun Heo 073219e995 cgroup: clean up cgroup_subsys names and initialization
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.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

v2: Rebased on top of fe1217c4f3 ("net: net_cls: move cgroupfs
    classid handling into core").

Tejun Heo 3ed80a62bf cgroup: drop module support
With module supported dropped from net_prio, no controller is using
cgroup module support.  None of actual resource controllers can be
built as a module and we aren't gonna add new controllers which don't
control resources.  This patch drops module support from cgroup.

* cgroup_[un]load_subsys() and cgroup_subsys->module removed.

* As there's no point in distinguishing IS_BUILTIN() and IS_MODULE(),
  cgroup_subsys.h now uses IS_ENABLED() directly.

* enum cgroup_subsys_id now exactly matches the list of enabled
  controllers as ordered in cgroup_subsys.h.

* cgroup_subsys[] is now a contiguously occupied array.  Size
  specification is no longer necessary and dropped.

* for_each_builtin_subsys() is removed and for_each_subsys() is
  updated to not require any locking.

* module ref handling is removed from rebind_subsystems().

* Module related comments dropped.

v2: Rebased on top of fe1217c4f3 ("net: net_cls: move cgroupfs
    classid handling into core").

v3: Added {} around the if (need_forkexit_callback) block in
    cgroup_post_fork() for readability as suggested by Li.

Tejun Heo 6612f05b88 cgroup: unify pidlist and other file handling
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.

v2: Refreshed on top of the updated "cgroup: introduce struct
    cgroup_pidlist_open_file".

v3: Refreshed on top of the updated "cgroup: attach cgroup_open_file
    to all cgroup files".

Tejun Heo 2da8ca822d cgroup: replace cftype->read_seq_string() with cftype->seq_show()
In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is
updated so that it can be easily mapped to kernfs.  This patch
replaces cftype->read_seq_string() with cftype->seq_show() which is
not limited to single_open() operation and will map directcly to
kernfs seq_file interface.

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
new method better.

This patch does not introduce any behavior changes.

Tejun Heo 7da1127927 cgroup: attach cgroup_open_file to all cgroup files
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
    private data size.  Fix it by allocating @of separately and
    passing it to single_open() and explicitly freeing it in the
    release path.  This isn't the prettiest but this path is gonna be
    restructured by the following patches pretty soon.

Tejun Heo afb2bc14e1 cgroup: don't guarantee cgroup.procs is sorted if sane_behavior
For some reason, tasks and cgroup.procs guarantee that the result is

instead of just iterating through sorted member tasks.  We can't do
anything about the existing interface but at least ensure that such
expectation doesn't exist for the new interface so that pidlist logic
may be removed in the distant future.

Tejun Heo fba9480783 cgroup, memcg: move cgroup->event_list[_lock] and event callbacks into memcg
cgroup_event is being moved from cgroup core to memcg and the
implementation is already moved by the previous patch.  This patch
moves the data fields and callbacks.

* cgroup->event_list[_lock] are moved to mem_cgroup.

* cftype->[un]register_event() are moved to cgroup_event.  This makes
  it impossible for individual cftype definitions to specify their
  event callbacks.  This is worked around by simply hard-coding
  filename to event callback mapping in cgroup_write_event_control().
  This is awkward and inflexible, which is actually desirable given
  that we don't want to grow more usages of this feature.

* eventfd_ctx declaration is removed from cgroup.h, which makes
  vmpressure.h miss eventfd_ctx declaration.  Include eventfd.h from
  vmpressure.h.

v2: Use file name from dentry instead of cftype.  This will allow
    removing all cftype handling in the function.

Tejun Heo 79bd9814e5 cgroup, memcg: move cgroup_event implementation to memcg
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.

v2: Per Li Zefan's comments, init/Kconfig updated accordingly and
    poll.h inclusion moved from cgroup.c to memcontrol.c.

Tejun Heo 0c21ead136 cgroup: RCU protect each cgroup_subsys_state release
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.

Tejun Heo 09a503ea3a cgroup: decouple cgroup_subsys_state destruction from cgroup destruction
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.

While this changes the order of destruction operations, the changes
shouldn't be noticeable to cgroup subsystems or userland.

Tejun Heo f20104de55 cgroup: replace cgroup->css_kill_cnt with ->nr_css
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.

Tejun Heo 0ae78e0bf1 cgroup: add cgroup_subsys_state->parent
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.
