cpuset: Fix cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback(), don't update tsk->rt.nr_cpus_allowed

2011-05-28T15:02:57Z

The rule is, we have to update tsk->rt.nr_cpus_allowed if we change tsk->cpus_allowed. Otherwise RT scheduler may confuse. Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro Cc: Oleg Nesterov Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/4DD4B3FA.5060901@jp.fujitsu.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

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.

cgroups: add per-thread subsystem callbacks

2011-05-27T00:12:34Z

Add cgroup subsystem callbacks for per-thread attachment in atomic contexts Add can_attach_task(), pre_attach(), and attach_task() as new callbacks for cgroups's subsystem interface. Unlike can_attach and attach, these are for per-thread operations, to be called potentially many times when attaching an entire threadgroup. Also, the old "bool threadgroup" interface is removed, as replaced by this. All subsystems are modified for the new interface - of note is cpuset, which requires from/to nodemasks for attach to be globally scoped (though per-cpuset would work too) to persist from its pre_attach to attach_task and attach. This is a pre-patch for cgroup-procs-writable.patch. Signed-off-by: Ben Blum Cc: "Eric W.

cpuset: hold callback_mutex in cpuset_post_clone()

2011-03-24T02:46:35Z

Chaning cpuset->mems/cpuset->cpus should be protected under callback_mutex. cpuset_clone() doesn't follow this rule. It's ok because it's called when creating and initializing a cgroup, but we'd better hold the lock to avoid subtil break in the future.

cpuset: fix unchecked calls to NODEMASK_ALLOC()

2011-03-24T02:46:35Z

Those functions that use NODEMASK_ALLOC() can't propagate errno to users, but will fail silently. Fix it by using a static nodemask_t variable for each function, and those variables are protected by cgroup_mutex; [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment spelling, strengthen cgroup_lock comment] Signed-off-by: Li Zefan Cc: Paul Menage Acked-by: David Rientjes Cc: Miao Xie Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

cpuset: remove unneeded NODEMASK_ALLOC() in cpuset_attach()

2011-03-24T02:46:34Z

oldcs->mems_allowed is not modified during cpuset_attach(), so we don't have to copy it to a buffer allocated by NODEMASK_ALLOC(). Just pass it to cpuset_migrate_mm().

cpuset: remove unneeded NODEMASK_ALLOC() in cpuset_sprintf_memlist()

2011-03-24T02:46:34Z

It's not necessary to copy cpuset->mems_allowed to a buffer allocated by NODEMASK_ALLOC(). Just pass it to nodelist_scnprintf(). As spotted by Paul, a side effect is we fix a bug that the function can return -ENOMEM but the caller doesn't expect negative return value. Therefore change the return value of cpuset_sprintf_cpulist() and cpuset_sprintf_memlist() from int to size_t.
