cgroup: remove bcache_subsys_id which got added stealthily

2013-07-09T23:30:35Z

cafe563591 ("bcache: A block layer cache") added a new cgroup subsystem bcache_subsys without proper review and ack. bcache_subsys seems to use cgroup for group stats and per-group cache_mode configuration. This is very much the type of usage that we don't want to allow. Fortunately, CONFIG_CGROUP_BCACHE which enables bcache_subsys is currently commented out, so this shouldn't have any upstream users. Let's nip in the bud. While at it, clarify in cgroup_subsys.h that no new subsystem should be added without explicit acks from cgroup maintainers.

bcache: A block layer cache

2013-03-23T23:11:31Z

Does writethrough and writeback caching, handles unclean shutdown, and has a bunch of other nifty features motivated by real world usage. See the wiki at http://bcache.evilpiepirate.org for more. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet

cgroup: Wrap subsystem selection macro

2012-09-14T16:57:37Z

Before we are able to define all subsystem ids at compile time we need a more fine grained control what gets defined when we include cgroup_subsys.h. For example we define the enums for the subsystems or to declare for struct cgroup_subsys (builtin subsystem) by including cgroup_subsys.h and defining SUBSYS accordingly. Currently, the decision if a subsys is used is defined inside the header by testing if CONFIG_*=y is true. By moving this test outside of cgroup_subsys.h we are able to control it on the include level. This is done by introducing IS_SUBSYS_ENABLED which then is defined according the task, e.g. is CONFIG_*=y or CONFIG_*=m.

mm/hugetlb: add new HugeTLB cgroup

2012-08-01T01:42:40Z

Implement a new controller that allows us to control HugeTLB allocations. The extension allows to limit the HugeTLB usage per control group and enforces the controller limit during page fault. Since HugeTLB doesn't support page reclaim, enforcing the limit at page fault time implies that, the application will get SIGBUS signal if it tries to access HugeTLB pages beyond its limit. This requires the application to know beforehand how much HugeTLB pages it would require for its use. The charge/uncharge calls will be added to HugeTLB code in later patch. Support for cgroup removal will be added in later patches.

net: add network priority cgroup infrastructure (v4)

2011-11-22T20:22:23Z

This patch adds in the infrastructure code to create the network priority cgroup. The cgroup, in addition to the standard processes file creates two control files: 1) prioidx - This is a read-only file that exports the index of this cgroup. This is a value that is both arbitrary and unique to a cgroup in this subsystem, and is used to index the per-device priority map 2) priomap - This is a writeable file. On read it reports a table of 2-tuples where name is the name of a network interface and priority is indicates the priority assigned to frames egresessing on the named interface and originating from a pid in this cgroup This cgroup allows for skb priority to be set prior to a root qdisc getting selected. This is benenficial for DCB enabled systems, in that it allows for any application to use dcb configured priorities so without application modification Signed-off-by: Neil Horman Signed-off-by: John Fastabend CC: Robert Love CC: "David S.

cgroup: remove the ns_cgroup

2011-05-27T00:12:34Z

The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and leads to some problems: * cgroup creation is out-of-control * cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping * it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time * we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children', where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values. The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to the 'tasks' file. This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread: https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used. This is a userspace-visible change. Commit 45531757b45c ("cgroup: notify ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal. Since that time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano Signed-off-by: Serge E. Hallyn Cc: Eric W.

perf: Add cgroup support

2011-02-16T12:30:48Z

This kernel patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on container groups (cgroups). This is for use in per-cpu mode only. The cgroup to monitor is passed as a file descriptor in the pid argument to the syscall. The file descriptor must be opened to the cgroup name in the cgroup filesystem. For instance, if the cgroup name is foo and cgroupfs is mounted in /cgroup, then the file descriptor is opened to /cgroup/foo. Cgroup mode is activated by passing PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP in the flags argument to the syscall. For instance to measure in cgroup foo on CPU1 assuming cgroupfs is mounted under /cgroup: struct perf_event_attr attr; int cgroup_fd, fd; cgroup_fd = open("/cgroup/foo", O_RDONLY); fd = perf_event_open(&attr, cgroup_fd, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP); close(cgroup_fd); Signed-off-by: Stephane Eranian [ added perf_cgroup_{exit,attach} ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra LKML-Reference: <4d590250.114ddf0a.689e.4482@mx.google.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

pkt_sched: Control group classifier

2008-11-08T06:56:00Z

The classifier should cover the most common use case and will work without any special configuration. The principle of the classifier is to directly access the task_struct via get_current(). In order for this to work, classification requests from softirqs must be ignored. This is not a problem because the vast majority of packets in softirq context are not assigned to a task anyway. For this to work, a mechanism is needed to trace softirq context. This repost goes back to the method of relying on the number of nested bh disable calls for the sake of not adding too much complexity and the option to come up with something more reliable if actually needed.
