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

All controllers are updated accordingly. * Controllers which don't care whether there are one or multiple target csses can be converted trivially. cpu, io, freezer, perf, netclassid and netprio fall in this category. * cpuset's current implementation assumes that there's single source and destination and thus doesn't support v2 hierarchy already. The only change made by this patchset is how that single destination css is obtained. * memory migration path already doesn't do anything on v2. How the single destination css is obtained is updated and the prep stage of mem_cgroup_can_attach() is reordered to accomodate the change. * pids is the only controller which was affected by this bug. It now correctly handles multi-destination migrations and no longer causes counter underflow from incorrect accounting.

2015-12-03cgroup_freezer: simplify propagation of CGROUP_FROZEN clearing in ↵Tejun Heo
freezer_attach() If one or more tasks get moved into a frozen css, the frozen state is cleared up from the destination css so that it can be reasserted once the migrated tasks are frozen. freezer_attach() implements this in two separate steps - clearing CGROUP_FROZEN on the target css while processing each task and propagating the clearing upwards after the task loop is done if necessary. This patch merges the two steps. Propagation now takes place inside the task loop. This simplifies the code and prepares it for the fix of multi-destination migration.

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

2014-07-15cgroup: rename cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes to ->legacy_cftypesTejun Heo
Currently, cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes is 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 without thinking it through. cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype arrays and apply each only on the hierarchies of the matching type. This will allow organizing cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems to scrutinize the interface which is being exposed in the new default hierarchy. In preparation, this patch renames cgroup_subsys->base_cftypes to cgroup_subsys->legacy_cftypes. This patch is pure rename.

Convert all cftype->write_string() users to the new cftype->write() which maps directly to kernfs write operation and has full access to kernfs and cgroup contexts. The conversions are mostly mechanical. * @css and @cft are accessed using of_css() and of_cft() accessors respectively instead of being specified as arguments. * Should return @nbytes on success instead of 0. * @buf is not trimmed automatically.

2014-05-13cgroup: rename css_tryget*() to css_tryget_online*()Tejun Heo
Unlike the more usual refcnting, what css_tryget() provides is the distinction between online and offline csses instead of protection against upping a refcnt which already reached zero. cgroup is planning to provide actual tryget which fails if the refcnt already reached zero. Let's rename the existing trygets so that they clearly indicate that they're onliness. I thought about keeping the existing names as-are and introducing new names for the planned actual tryget; however, given that each controller participates in the synchronization of the online state, it seems worthwhile to make it explicit that these functions are about on/offline state. Rename css_tryget() to css_tryget_online() and css_tryget_from_dir() to css_tryget_online_from_dir(). This is pure rename. v2: cgroup_freezer grew new usages of css_tryget(). Update accordingly.

In fact, given the fact that a cgroup may contain large number of tasks, it's not a good idea to iterate over them while holding IRQ-safe spinlock. Let's simplify locking by replacing per-cgroup freezer->lock with global freezer_mutex. This also makes the comments explaining the intricacies of policy inheritance and the locking around it as the states are protected by a common mutex. The conversion is mostly straight-forward. The followings are worth mentioning. * freezer_css_online() no longer needs double locking. * freezer_attach() now performs propagation simply while holding freezer_mutex. update_if_frozen() race no longer exists and the comment is removed. * freezer_fork() now tests whether the task is in root cgroup using the new task_css_is_root() without doing rcu_read_lock/unlock(). If not, it grabs freezer_mutex and performs the operation. * freezer_read() and freezer_change_state() grab freezer_mutex across the whole operation and pin the css while iterating so that each descendant processing happens in sleepable context.

cgroup_subsys->fork() callback is special in that it's called outside the usual cgroup locking and may race with on-going migration. freezer_fork() currently doesn't consider such race condition; however, it is still correct thanks to the fact that freeze_task() may be called spuriously. This is quite subtle. Let's explain what's going on and add test to detect racing and losing to task migration and skip freeze_task() in such cases for documentation.

2014-02-08cgroup: clean up cgroup_subsys names and initializationTejun Heo
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.

2013-08-09cgroup: make css_for_each_descendant() and friends include the origin css in ↵Tejun Heo
the iteration 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.

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.

2013-08-09cgroup: pass around cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup in file methodsTejun Heo
cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup. Please see the previous commit which converts the subsystem methods for rationale. This patch converts all cftype file operations to take @css instead of @cgroup. cftypes for the cgroup core files don't have their subsytem pointer set. These will automatically use the dummy_css added by the previous patch and can be converted the same way. Most subsystem conversions are straight forwards but there are some interesting ones. * freezer: update_if_frozen() is also converted to take @css instead of @cgroup for consistency. This will make the code look simpler too once iterators are converted to use css. * memory/vmpressure: mem_cgroup_from_css() needs to be exported to vmpressure while mem_cgroup_from_cont() can be made static. Updated accordingly. * cpu: cgroup_tg() doesn't have any user left. Removed. * cpuacct: cgroup_ca() doesn't have any user left. Removed. * hugetlb: hugetlb_cgroup_form_cgroup() doesn't have any user left. Removed. * net_cls: cgrp_cls_state() doesn't have any user left. Removed.

2013-08-09cgroup: pass around cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup in subsystem methodsTejun Heo
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.

2013-08-09cgroup: add css_parent()Tejun Heo
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. This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences.

2013-08-09cgroup: add/update accessors which obtain subsys specific data from cssTejun Heo
css (cgroup_subsys_state) is usually embedded in a subsys specific data structure. Subsystems either use container_of() directly to cast from css to such data structure or has an accessor function wrapping such cast. As cgroup as whole is moving towards using css as the main interface handle, add and update such accessors to ease dealing with css's. All accessors explicitly handle NULL input and return NULL in those cases. While this looks like an extra branch in the code, as all controllers specific data structures have css as the first field, the casting doesn't involve any offsetting and the compiler can trivially optimize out the branch. * blkio, freezer, cpuset, cpu, cpuacct and net_cls didn't have such accessor. Added. * memory, hugetlb and devices already had one but didn't explicitly handle NULL input. Updated. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>

The names of the two struct cgroup_subsys_state accessors - cgroup_subsys_state() and task_subsys_state() - are somewhat awkward. The former clashes with the type name and the latter doesn't even indicate it's somehow related to cgroup. We're about to revamp large portion of cgroup API, so, let's rename them so that they're less awkward. Most per-controller usages of the accessors are localized in accessor wrappers and given the amount of scheduled changes, this isn't gonna add any noticeable headache.

2012-11-09cgroup_freezer: implement proper hierarchy supportTejun Heo
Up until now, cgroup_freezer didn't implement hierarchy properly. cgroups could be arranged in hierarchy but it didn't make any difference in how each cgroup_freezer behaved. They all operated separately. This patch implements proper hierarchy support. If a cgroup is frozen, all its descendants are frozen. A cgroup is thawed iff it and all its ancestors are THAWED. freezer.self_freezing shows the current freezing state for the cgroup itself. freezer.parent_freezing shows whether the cgroup is freezing because any of its ancestors is freezing. freezer_post_create() locks the parent and new cgroup and inherits the parent's state and freezer_change_state() applies new state top-down using cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() which guarantees that no child can escape its parent's state. update_if_frozen() uses cgroup_for_each_descendant_post() to propagate frozen states bottom-up. Synchronization could be coarser and easier by using a single mutex to protect all hierarchy operations. Finer grained approach was used because it wasn't too difficult for cgroup_freezer and I think it's beneficial to have an example implementation and cgroup_freezer is rather simple and can serve a good one. As this makes cgroup_freezer properly hierarchical, freezer_subsys.broken_hierarchy marking is removed. Note that this patch changes userland visible behavior - freezing a cgroup now freezes all its descendants too. This behavior change is intended and has been warned via .broken_hierarchy. v2: Michal spotted a bug in freezer_change_state() - descendants were inheriting from the wrong ancestor. Fixed. v3: Documentation/cgroups/freezer-subsystem.txt updated. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz>

This will be used by full hierarchy support. ONLINE test is added to freezer_apply_state() but it currently doesn't make any difference as freezer_write() can only be called for an online cgroup.

2012-10-26freezer: change ptrace_stop/do_signal_stop to use freezable_schedule()Oleg Nesterov
try_to_freeze_tasks() and cgroup_freezer rely on scheduler locks to ensure that a task doing STOPPED/TRACED -> RUNNING transition can't escape freezing. This mostly works, but ptrace_stop() does not necessarily call schedule(), it can change task->state back to RUNNING and check freezing() without any lock/barrier in between. We could add the necessary barrier, but this patch changes ptrace_stop() and do_signal_stop() to use freezable_schedule(). This fixes the race, freezer_count() and freezer_should_skip() carefully avoid the race. And this simplifies the code, try_to_freeze_tasks/update_if_frozen no longer need to use task_is_stopped_or_traced() checks with the non trivial assumptions. We can rely on the mechanism which was specially designed to mark the sleeping task as "frozen enough". v2: As Tejun pointed out, we can also change get_signal_to_deliver() and move try_to_freeze() up before 'relock' label.

2012-10-20cgroup_freezer: don't use cgroup_lock_live_group()Tejun Heo
freezer_read/write() used cgroup_lock_live_group() to synchronize against task migration into and out of the target cgroup. cgroup_lock_live_group() grabs the internal cgroup lock and using it from outside cgroup core leads to complex and fragile locking dependency issues which are difficult to resolve. Now that freezer_can_attach() is replaced with freezer_attach() and update_if_frozen() updated, nothing requires excluding migration against freezer state reads and changes.

Locking will change such that migration can happen while freezer_read/write() is in progress. This means that update_if_frozen() can no longer assume that all tasks in the cgroup coform to the current freezer state - newly migrated tasks which haven't finished freezer_attach() yet might be in any state. This patch updates update_if_frozen() such that it no longer verifies task states against freezer state. It now simply decides whether FREEZING stage is complete. This removal of verification makes it meaningless to call from freezer_change_state(). Drop it and move the fast exit test from freezer_read() - the only left caller - to update_if_frozen().

2012-10-20cgroup_freezer: allow moving tasks in and out of a frozen cgroupTejun Heo
cgroup_freezer is one of the few users of cgroup_subsys->can_attach() and uses it to prevent tasks from being migrated into or out of a frozen cgroup. This makes cgroup_freezer cumbersome to use especially when co-mounted with other controllers. ->can_attach() is problematic in general as it can make co-mounting multiple cgroups difficult - migrating tasks may fail for reasons completely irrelevant for other controllers. freezer_can_attach() in particular is more problematic because it messes with cgroup internal locking to ensure that the state verification performed at freezer_can_attach() stays valid until migration is complete. This patch replaces freezer_can_attach() with freezer_attach() so that tasks are always allowed to migrate - they are nudged into the conforming state from freezer_attach(). This means that there can be tasks which are being migrated which don't conform to the current cgroup_freezer state until freezer_attach() is complete. Under the current locking scheme, the only such place is freezer_fork() which is updated to handle such window. While this patch doesn't remove the use of internal cgroup locking from freezer_read/write() paths, it removes the requirement to keep the freezer state constant while migrating and enables such change. Note that this creates a userland visible behavior change - FROZEN cgroup can no longer be used to lock migrations in and out of the cgroup. This behavior change is intended. I don't think the feature is necessary - userland should coordinate accesses to cgroup fs anyway - and even if the feature is needed cgroup_freezer is the completely wrong place to implement it.

2012-10-16cgroup_freezer: don't stall transition to FROZEN for PF_NOFREEZE or ↵Tejun Heo
PF_FREEZER_SKIP tasks cgroup_freezer doesn't transition from FREEZING to FROZEN if the cgroup contains PF_NOFREEZE tasks or tasks sleeping with PF_FREEZER_SKIP set. Only kernel tasks can be non-freezable (PF_NOFREEZE) and there's nothing cgroup_freezer or userland can do about or to it. It's pointless to stall the transition for PF_NOFREEZE tasks. PF_FREEZER_SKIP indicates that the task can be skipped when determining whether frozen state is reached. A task with PF_FREEZER_SKIP is guaranteed to perform try_to_freeze() after it wakes up and can be considered frozen much like stopped or traced tasks. Note that a vfork parent uses PF_FREEZER_SKIP while waiting for the child. This updates update_if_frozen() such that it only considers freezable tasks and treats %true freezer_should_skip() tasks as frozen. This allows cgroups w/ kthreads and vfork parents successfully reach FROZEN state. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
2012-10-16cgroup_freezer: make it official that writes to freezer.state don't failTejun Heo
try_to_freeze_cgroup() has condition checks which are intended to fail the write operation to freezer.state if there are tasks which can't be frozen. The condition checks have been broken for quite some time now. freeze_task() returns %false if the target task can't be frozen, so num_cant_freeze_now is never incremented. In addition, strangely, cgroup freezing proceeds even after the write is failed, which is rather broken. This patch rips out the non-working code intended to fail the write to freezer.state when the cgroup contains non-freezable tasks and makes it official that writes to freezer.state succeed whether there are non-freezable tasks in the cgroup or not. This leaves is_task_frozen_enough() with only one user - upste_if_frozen(). Collapse it into the caller. Note that this removes an extra call to freezing().

2012-10-16cgroup: cgroup_subsys->fork() should be called after the task is added to ↵Tejun Heo
css_set cgroup core has a bug which violates a basic rule about event notifications - when a new entity needs to be added, you add that to the notification list first and then make the new entity conform to the current state. If done in the reverse order, an event happening inbetween will be lost. cgroup_subsys->fork() is invoked way before the new task is added to the css_set. Currently, cgroup_freezer is the only user of ->fork() and uses it to make new tasks conform to the current state of the freezer. If FROZEN state is requested while fork is in progress between cgroup_fork_callbacks() and cgroup_post_fork(), the child could escape freezing - the cgroup isn't frozen when ->fork() is called and the freezer couldn't see the new task on the css_set. This patch moves cgroup_subsys->fork() invocation to cgroup_post_fork() after the new task is added to the css_set. cgroup_fork_callbacks() is removed. Because now a task may be migrated during cgroup_subsys->fork(), freezer_fork() is updated so that it adheres to the usual RCU locking and the rather pointless comment on why locking can be different there is removed (if it doesn't make anything simpler, why even bother?).

2012-09-14cgroup: mark subsystems with broken hierarchy support and whine if cgroups ↵Tejun Heo
are nested for them Currently, cgroup hierarchy support is a mess. cpu related subsystems behave correctly - configuration, accounting and control on a parent properly cover its children. blkio and freezer completely ignore hierarchy and treat all cgroups as if they're directly under the root cgroup. Others show yet different behaviors. These differing interpretations of cgroup hierarchy make using cgroup confusing and it impossible to co-mount controllers into the same hierarchy and obtain sane behavior. Eventually, we want full hierarchy support from all subsystems and probably a unified hierarchy. Users using separate hierarchies expecting completely different behaviors depending on the mounted subsystem is deterimental to making any progress on this front. This patch adds cgroup_subsys.broken_hierarchy and sets it to %true for controllers which are lacking in hierarchy support. The goal of this patch is two-fold. * Move users away from using hierarchy on currently non-hierarchical subsystems, so that implementing proper hierarchy support on those doesn't surprise them. * Keep track of which controllers are broken how and nudge the subsystems to implement proper hierarchy support. For now, start with a single warning message. We can whine louder later on. v2: Fixed a typo spotted by Michal. Warning message updated. v3: Updated memcg part so that it doesn't generate warning in the cases where .use_hierarchy=false doesn't make the behavior different from root.use_hierarchy=true.

2011-12-13cgroup: don't use subsys->can_attach_task() or ->attach_task()Tejun Heo
Now that subsys->can_attach() and attach() take @tset instead of @task, they can handle per-task operations. Convert ->can_attach_task() and ->attach_task() users to use ->can_attach() and attach() instead. Most converions are straight-forward. Noteworthy changes are, * In cgroup_freezer, remove unnecessary NULL assignments to unused methods. It's useless and very prone to get out of sync, which already happened. * In cpuset, PF_THREAD_BOUND test is checked for each task. This doesn't make any practical difference but is conceptually cleaner.

2011-12-13cgroup: introduce cgroup_taskset and use it in subsys->can_attach(), ↵Tejun Heo
cancel_attach() and attach() Currently, there's no way to pass multiple tasks to cgroup_subsys methods necessitating the need for separate per-process and per-task methods. This patch introduces cgroup_taskset which can be used to pass multiple tasks and their associated cgroups to cgroup_subsys methods. Three methods - can_attach(), cancel_attach() and attach() - are converted to use cgroup_taskset. This unifies passed parameters so that all methods have access to all information. Conversions in this patchset are identical and don't introduce any behavior change. -v2: documentation updated as per Paul Menage's suggestion.

2011-11-24cgroup_freezer: fix freezing groups with stopped tasksMichal Hocko
2d3cbf8b (cgroup_freezer: update_freezer_state() does incorrect state transitions) removed is_task_frozen_enough and replaced it with a simple frozen call. This, however, breaks freezing for a group with stopped tasks because those cannot be frozen and so the group remains in CGROUP_FREEZING state (update_if_frozen doesn't count stopped tasks) and never reaches CGROUP_FROZEN. Let's add is_task_frozen_enough back and use it at the original locations (update_if_frozen and try_to_freeze_cgroup). Semantically we consider stopped tasks as frozen enough so we should consider both cases when testing frozen tasks. Testcase: mkdir /dev/freezer mount -t cgroup -o freezer none /dev/freezer mkdir /dev/freezer/foo sleep 1h & pid=$! kill -STOP $pid echo $pid > /dev/freezer/foo/tasks echo FROZEN > /dev/freezer/foo/freezer.state while true do cat /dev/freezer/foo/freezer.state [ "`cat /dev/freezer/foo/freezer.state`" = "FROZEN" ] && break sleep 1 done echo OK Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Tomasz Buchert <tomasz.buchert@inria.fr> Cc: Paul Menage <paul@paulmenage.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2011-11-21freezer: remove unused @sig_only from freeze_task()Tejun Heo
After "freezer: make freezing() test freeze conditions in effect instead of TIF_FREEZE", freezing() returns authoritative answer on whether the current task should freeze or not and freeze_task() doesn't need or use @sig_only. Remove it. While at it, rewrite function comment for freeze_task() and rename @sig_only to @user_only in try_to_freeze_tasks(). This patch doesn't cause any functional change.
