Boris reported that gcc version 4.4.4 20100503 (Red Hat
4.4.4-2) fails to build linux-next kernels that have
this fresh commit via the locking tree:
11276d5306b8 ("locking/static_keys: Add a new static_key interface")
The problem appears to be that even though @key and @branch are
compile time constants, it doesn't see the following expression
as an immediate value:
&((char *)key)[branch]
More recent GCCs don't appear to have this problem.
In particular, Red Hat backported the 'asm goto' feature into 4.4,
'normal' 4.4 compilers will not have this feature and thus not
run into this asm.
The workaround is to supply both values to the asm as immediates
and do the addition in asm.

While unifying how blkcg stats are collected, 77ea733884eb ("blkcg:
move io_service_bytes and io_serviced stats into blkcg_gq")
incorrectly used bio->flags instead of bio->rw to tell the IO type.
This made IOs to be accounted as the wrong type. Fix it.

This reverts commit d353d7587d02116b9732d5c06615aed75a4d3a47.
Doing the block layer plug/unplug inside writeback_sb_inodes() is
broken, because that function is actually called with a spinlock held:
wb->list_lock, as pointed out by Chris Mason.
Chris suggested just dropping and re-taking the spinlock around the
blk_finish_plug() call (the plgging itself can happen under the
spinlock), and that would technically work, but is just disgusting.
We do something fairly similar - but not quite as disgusting because we
at least have a better reason for it - in writeback_single_inode(), so
it's not like the caller can depend on the lock being held over the
call, but in this case there just isn't any good reason for that
"release and re-take the lock" pattern.
[ In general, we should really strive to avoid the "release and retake"
pattern for locks, because in the general case it can easily cause
subtle bugs when the caller caches any state around the call that
might be invalidated by dropping the lock even just temporarily. ]
But in this case, the plugging should be easy to just move up to the
callers before the spinlock is taken, which should even improve the
effectiveness of the plug. So there is really no good reason to play
games with locking here.
I'll send off a test-patch so that Dave Chinner can verify that that
plug movement works. In the meantime this just reverts the problematic
commit and adds a comment to the function so that we hopefully don't
make this mistake again.

bdi's are initialized in two steps, bdi_init() and bdi_register(), but
destroyed in a single step by bdi_destroy() which, for a bdi embedded
in a request_queue, is called during blk_cleanup_queue() which makes
the queue invisible and starts the draining of remaining usages.
A request_queue's user can access the congestion state of the embedded
bdi as long as it holds a reference to the queue. As such, it may
access the congested state of a queue which finished
blk_cleanup_queue() but hasn't reached blk_release_queue() yet.
Because the congested state was embedded in backing_dev_info which in
turn is embedded in request_queue, accessing the congested state after
bdi_destroy() was called was fine. The bdi was destroyed but the
memory region for the congested state remained accessible till the
queue got released.
a13f35e87140 ("writeback: don't embed root bdi_writeback_congested in
bdi_writeback") changed the situation. Now, the root congested state
which is expected to be pinned while request_queue remains accessible
is separately reference counted and the base ref is put during
bdi_destroy(). This means that the root congested state may go away
prematurely while the queue is between bdi_dstroy() and
blk_cleanup_queue(), which was detected by Andrey's KASAN tests.
The root cause of this problem is that bdi doesn't distinguish the two
steps of destruction, unregistration and release, and now the root
congested state actually requires a separate release step. To fix the
issue, this patch separates out bdi_unregister() and bdi_exit() from
bdi_destroy(). bdi_unregister() is called from blk_cleanup_queue()
and bdi_exit() from blk_release_queue(). bdi_destroy() is now just a
simple wrapper calling the two steps back-to-back.
While at it, the prototype of bdi_destroy() is moved right below
bdi_setup_and_register() so that the counterpart operations are
located together.

When cgroup writeback is in use, there can be multiple wb's
(bdi_writeback's) per bdi and an inode may switch among them
dynamically. In a couple places, the wrong wb was used leading to
performing operations on the wrong list under the wrong lock
corrupting the io lists.
* writeback_single_inode() was taking @wb parameter and used it to
remove the inode from io lists if it becomes clean after writeback.
The callers of this function were always passing in the root wb
regardless of the actual wb that the inode was associated with,
which could also change while writeback is in progress.
Fix it by dropping the @wb parameter and using
inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() to determine and lock the associated wb.
* After writeback_sb_inodes() writes out an inode, it re-locks @wb and
inode to remove it from or move it to the right io list. It assumes
that the inode is still associated with @wb; however, the inode may
have switched to another wb while writeback was in progress.
Fix it by using inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() to determine and lock
the associated wb after writeback is complete. As the function
requires the original @wb->list_lock locked for the next iteration,
in the unlikely case where the inode has changed association, switch
the locks.
Kudos to Tahsin for pinpointing these subtle breakages.

locked_inode_to_wb_and_lock_list() wb_get()'s the wb associated with
the target inode, unlocks inode, locks the wb's list_lock and verifies
that the inode is still associated with the wb. To prevent the wb
going away between dropping inode lock and acquiring list_lock, the wb
is pinned while inode lock is held. The wb reference is put right
after acquiring list_lock citing that the wb won't be dereferenced
anymore.
This isn't true. If the inode is still associated with the wb, the
inode has reference and it's safe to return the wb; however, if inode
has been switched, the wb still needs to be unlocked which is a
dereference and can lead to use-after-free if it it races with wb
destruction.
Fix it by putting the reference after releasing list_lock.

As vm.dirty_[background_]bytes can't be applied verbatim to multiple
cgroup writeback domains, they get converted to percentages in
domain_dirty_limits() and applied the same way as
vm.dirty_[background]ratio. However, if the specified bytes is lower
than 1% of available memory, the calculated ratios become zero and the
writeback domain gets throttled constantly.
Fix it by using per-PAGE_SIZE instead of percentage for ratio
calculations. Also, the updated DIV_ROUND_UP() usages now should
yield 1/4096 (0.0244%) as the minimum ratio as long as the specified
bytes are above zero.

Commit 947e9762a8dd ("writeback: update wb_over_bg_thresh() to use
wb_domain aware operations") unintentionally changed this function's
meaning from "are there more dirty pages than the background writeback
threshold" to "are there more dirty pages than the writeback threshold".
The background writeback threshold is typically half of the writeback
threshold, so this had the effect of raising the number of dirty pages
required to cause a writeback worker to perform background writeout.
This can cause a very severe performance regression when a BDI uses
BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT because balance_dirty_pages() and the writeback worker
can now disagree on whether writeback should be initiated.
For example, in a system having 1GB of RAM, a single spinning disk, and a
"pass-through" FUSE filesystem mounted over the disk, application code
mmapped a 128MB file on the disk and was randomly dirtying pages in that
mapping.
Because FUSE uses strictlimit and has a default max_ratio of only 1%, in
balance_dirty_pages, thresh is ~200, bg_thresh is ~100, and the
dirty_freerun_ceiling is the average of those, ~150. So, it pauses the
dirtying processes when we have 151 dirty pages and wakes up a background
writeback worker. But the worker tests the wrong threshold (200 instead of
100), so it does not initiate writeback and just returns.
Thus, balance_dirty_pages keeps looping, sleeping and then waking up the
worker who will do nothing. It remains stuck in this state until the few
dirty pages that we have finally expire and we write them back for that
reason. Then the whole process repeats, resulting in near-zero throughput
through the FUSE BDI.
The fix is to call the parameterized variant of wb_calc_thresh, so that the
worker will do writeback if the bg_thresh is exceeded which was the
behavior before the referenced commit.

A previous commit wanted to make CFQ default to IOPS mode on
non-rotational storage, however it did so when the queue was
initialized and the non-rotational flag is only set later on
in the probe.
Add an elevator hook that gets called off the add_disk() path,
at that point we know that feature probing has finished, and
we can reliably check for the various flags that drivers can
set.

CFQ idling causes reduced IOPS throughput on non-rotational disks.
Since disk head seeking is not applicable to SSDs, it doesn't really
help performance by anticipating future near-by IO requests.
By turning off idling (and switching to IOPS mode), we allow other
processes to dispatch IO requests down to the driver and so increase IO
throughput.
Following FIO benchmark results were taken on a cloud SSD offering with
idling on and off:

If cgroup writeback is in use, an inode is associated with a cgroup
for writeback. If the inode's main dirtier changes to another cgroup,
the association gets updated asynchronously. Nothing was pinning the
superblock while such switches are in progress and superblock could go
away while async switching is pending or in progress leading to
crashes like the following.

The problem starts with a file backed dirty page which is charged to a
memcg. Then page migration is used to move oldpage to newpage.
Migration:
- copies the oldpage's data to newpage
- clears oldpage.PG_dirty
- sets newpage.PG_dirty
- uncharges oldpage from memcg
- charges newpage to memcg
Clearing oldpage.PG_dirty decrements the charged memcg's dirty page
count.
However, because newpage is not yet charged, setting newpage.PG_dirty
does not increment the memcg's dirty page count. After migration
completes newpage.PG_dirty is eventually cleared, often in
account_page_cleaned(). At this time newpage is charged to a memcg so
the memcg's dirty page count is decremented which causes underflow
because the count was not previously incremented by migration. This
underflow causes balance_dirty_pages() to see a very large unsigned
number of dirty memcg pages which leads to aggressive throttling of
buffered writes by processes in non root memcg.
This issue:
- can harm performance of non root memcg buffered writes.
- can report too small (even negative) values in
memory.stat[(total_)dirty] counters of all memcg, including the root.
To avoid polluting migrate.c with #ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG checks, introduce
page_memcg() and set_page_memcg() helpers.
Test:
0) setup and enter limited memcg
mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
echo 1G > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes

Since 52ebea749aae ("writeback: make backing_dev_info host
cgroup-specific bdi_writebacks") inode, at some point in its lifetime,
gets attached to a wb (struct bdi_writeback). Detaching happens on
evict, in inode_detach_wb() called from __destroy_inode(), and involves
updating wb.
However, detaching an internal bdev inode from its wb in
__destroy_inode() is too late. Its bdi and by extension root wb are
embedded into struct request_queue, which has different lifetime rules
and can be freed long before the final bdput() is called (can be from
__fput() of a corresponding /dev inode, through dput() - evict() -
bd_forget(). bdevs hold onto the underlying disk/queue pair only while
opened; as soon as bdev is closed all bets are off. In fact,
disk/queue can be gone before __blkdev_put() even returns:
1499 static void __blkdev_put(struct block_device *bdev, fmode_t mode, int for_part)
1500 {
...
1518 if (bdev->bd_contains == bdev) {
1519 if (disk->fops->release)
1520 disk->fops->release(disk, mode);
[ Driver puts its references to disk/queue ]
1521 }
1522 if (!bdev->bd_openers) {
1523 struct module *owner = disk->fops->owner;
1524
1525 disk_put_part(bdev->bd_part);
1526 bdev->bd_part = NULL;
1527 bdev->bd_disk = NULL;
1528 if (bdev != bdev->bd_contains)
1529 victim = bdev->bd_contains;
1530 bdev->bd_contains = NULL;
1531
1532 put_disk(disk);
[ We put ours, the queue is gone
The last bdput() would result in a write to invalid memory ]
1533 module_put(owner);
...
1539 }
Since bdev inodes are special anyway, detach them in __blkdev_put()
after clearing inode's dirty bits, turning the problematic
inode_detach_wb() in __destroy_inode() into a noop.
add_disk() grabs its disk->queue since 523e1d399ce0 ("block: make
gendisk hold a reference to its queue"), so the old ->release comment
is removed in favor of the new inode_detach_wb() comment.

There are three subsystem callbacks in css shutdown path -
css_offline(), css_released() and css_free(). Except for
css_released(), cgroup core didn't guarantee the order of invocation.
css_offline() or css_free() could be called on a parent css before its
children. This behavior is unexpected and led to bugs in cpu and
memory controller.
This patch updates offline path so that a parent css is never offlined
before its children. Each css keeps online_cnt which reaches zero iff
itself and all its children are offline and offline_css() is invoked
only after online_cnt reaches zero.
This fixes the memory controller bug and allows the fix for cpu
controller.

get_disk(),get_gendisk() calls have non explicit side effect: they
increase the reference on the disk owner module.
The following is the correct sequence how to get a disk reference and
to put it:
disk = get_gendisk(...);
/* use disk */
owner = disk->fops->owner;
put_disk(disk);
module_put(owner);
fs/block_dev.c is aware of this required module_put() call, but f.e.
blkg_conf_finish(), which is located in block/blk-cgroup.c, does not put
a module reference. To see a leakage in action cgroups throttle config
can be used. In the following script I'm removing throttle for /dev/ram0
(actually this is NOP, because throttle was never set for this device):
# lsmod | grep brd
brd 5175 0
# i=100; while [ $i -gt 0 ]; do echo "1:0 0" > \
/sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/blkio.throttle.read_bps_device; i=$(($i - 1)); \
done
# lsmod | grep brd
brd 5175 100
Now brd module has 100 references.
The issue is fixed by calling module_put() just right away put_disk().

When the memory.high threshold is exceeded, try_charge() schedules a
task_work to reclaim the excess. The reclaim target is set to the
number of pages requested by try_charge().
This is wrong, because try_charge() usually charges more pages than
requested (batch > nr_pages) in order to refill per cpu stocks. As a
result, a process in a cgroup can easily exceed memory.high
significantly when doing a lot of charges w/o returning to userspace
(e.g. reading a file in big chunks).
Fix this issue by assuring that when exceeding memory.high a process
reclaims as many pages as were actually charged (i.e. batch).

try_charge() is the main charging logic of memcg. When it hits the limit
but either can't fail the allocation due to __GFP_NOFAIL or the task is
likely to free memory very soon, being OOM killed, has SIGKILL pending or
exiting, it "bypasses" the charge to the root memcg and returns -EINTR.
While this is one approach which can be taken for these situations, it has
several issues.
* It unnecessarily lies about the reality. The number itself doesn't
go over the limit but the actual usage does. memcg is either forced
to or actively chooses to go over the limit because that is the
right behavior under the circumstances, which is completely fine,
but, if at all avoidable, it shouldn't be misrepresenting what's
happening by sneaking the charges into the root memcg.
* Despite trying, we already do over-charge. kmemcg can't deal with
switching over to the root memcg by the point try_charge() returns
-EINTR, so it open-codes over-charing.
* It complicates the callers. Each try_charge() user has to handle
the weird -EINTR exception. memcg_charge_kmem() does the manual
over-charging. mem_cgroup_do_precharge() performs unnecessary
uncharging of root memcg, which BTW is inconsistent with what
memcg_charge_kmem() does but not broken as [un]charging are noops on
root memcg. mem_cgroup_try_charge() needs to switch the returned
cgroup to the root one.
The reality is that in memcg there are cases where we are forced and/or
willing to go over the limit. Each such case needs to be scrutinized and
justified but there definitely are situations where that is the right
thing to do. We alredy do this but with a superficial and inconsistent
disguise which leads to unnecessary complications.
This patch updates try_charge() so that it over-charges and returns 0 when
deemed necessary. -EINTR return is removed along with all special case
handling in the callers.
While at it, remove the local variable @ret, which was initialized to zero
and never changed, along with done: label which just returned the always
zero @ret.

Currently, try_charge() tries to reclaim memory synchronously when the
high limit is breached; however, if the allocation doesn't have
__GFP_WAIT, synchronous reclaim is skipped. If a process performs only
speculative allocations, it can blow way past the high limit. This is
actually easily reproducible by simply doing "find /". slab/slub
allocator tries speculative allocations first, so as long as there's
memory which can be consumed without blocking, it can keep allocating
memory regardless of the high limit.
This patch makes try_charge() always punt the over-high reclaim to the
return-to-userland path. If try_charge() detects that high limit is
breached, it adds the overage to current->memcg_nr_pages_over_high and
schedules execution of mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() which performs
synchronous reclaim from the return-to-userland path.
As long as kernel doesn't have a run-away allocation spree, this should
provide enough protection while making kmemcg behave more consistently.
It also has the following benefits.
- All over-high reclaims can use GFP_KERNEL regardless of the specific
gfp mask in use, e.g. GFP_NOFS, when the limit was breached.
- It copes with prio inversion. Previously, a low-prio task with
small memory.high might perform over-high reclaim with a bunch of
locks held. If a higher prio task needed any of these locks, it
would have to wait until the low prio task finished reclaim and
released the locks. By handing over-high reclaim to the task exit
path this issue can be avoided.

task_struct->memcg_oom is a sub-struct containing fields which are used
for async memcg oom handling. Most task_struct fields aren't packaged
this way and it can lead to unnecessary alignment paddings. This patch
flattens it.
* task.memcg_oom.memcg -> task.memcg_in_oom
* task.memcg_oom.gfp_mask -> task.memcg_oom_gfp_mask
* task.memcg_oom.order -> task.memcg_oom_order
* task.memcg_oom.may_oom -> task.memcg_may_oom
In addition, task.memcg_may_oom is relocated to where other bitfields are
which reduces the size of task_struct.

bdi_split_work_to_wbs()
bdi_split_work_to_wbs() uses list_for_each_entry_rcu_continue()
to walk @bdi->wb_list. To set up the initial iteration
condition, it uses list_entry_rcu() to calculate the entry
pointer corresponding to the list head; however, this isn't an
actual RCU dereference and using list_entry_rcu() for it ended
up breaking a proposed list_entry_rcu() change because it was
feeding an non-lvalue pointer into the macro.
Don't use the RCU variant for simple pointer offsetting. Use
list_entry() instead.

bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue
writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi.
The iteration is performed by walking bdi->cgwb_tree; however, the
tree only indexes wb's which are currently active.
For example, when a memcg gets associated with a different blkcg, the
old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed.
The old wb starts dying from then on but will linger till all its
inodes are drained. As these dying wb's may still host dirty inodes,
writeback operations which affect all wb's must include them.
bdi_for_each_wb() skipping dying wb's led to sync(2) missing and
failing to sync the inodes belonging to those wb's.
This patch adds a RCU protected @bdi->wb_list which lists all wb's
beloinging to that bdi. wb's are added on creation and removed on
release rather than on the start of destruction. bdi_for_each_wb()
usages are replaced with list_for_each[_continue]_rcu() iterations
over @bdi->wb_list and bdi_for_each_wb() and its helpers are removed.
v2: Updated as per Jan. last_wb ref leak in bdi_split_work_to_wbs()
fixed and unnecessary list head severing in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
removed.

call wait_sb_inodes()
e79729123f63 ("writeback: don't issue wb_writeback_work if clean")
updated writeback path to avoid kicking writeback work items if there
are no inodes to be written out; unfortunately, the avoidance logic
was too aggressive and broke sync_inodes_sb().
* sync_inodes_sb() must write out I_DIRTY_TIME inodes but I_DIRTY_TIME
inodes dont't contribute to bdi/wb_has_dirty_io() tests and were
being skipped over.
* inodes are taken off wb->b_dirty/io/more_io lists after writeback
starts on them. sync_inodes_sb() skipping wait_sb_inodes() when
bdi_has_dirty_io() breaks it by making it return while writebacks
are in-flight.
This patch fixes the breakages by
* Removing bdi_has_dirty_io() shortcut from bdi_split_work_to_wbs().
The callers are already testing the condition.
* Removing bdi_has_dirty_io() shortcut from sync_inodes_sb() so that
it always calls into bdi_split_work_to_wbs() and wait_sb_inodes().
* Making bdi_split_work_to_wbs() consider the b_dirty_time list for
WB_SYNC_ALL writebacks.

Because accounting resources for the root cgroup sometimes incurs
measureable overhead for workloads which don't care about cgroup and
often ends up calculating a number which is available elsewhere in a
slightly different form, cgroup is not in the business of providing
system-wide statistics. The pids controller which was introduced
recently was exposing "pids.current" at the root. This patch disable
accounting for root cgroup and removes the file from the root
directory.
While this is a userland visible behavior change, pids has been
available only in one version and was badly broken there, so I don't
think this will be noticeable. If it turns out to be a problem, we
can reinstate it for v1 hierarchies.

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.

This patch fixes the bug by removing @css parameter from the three
migration methods, ->can_attach, ->cancel_attach() and ->attach() and
updating cgroup_taskset iteration helpers also return the destination
css in addition to the task being migrated. 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.

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.

Now that we know that the forking task can't migrate amd the child is always
moved to the same cgroup by cgroup_post_fork()->css_set_move_task() we can
change pids_can_fork() and pids_cancel_fork() to just use task_css(current).
And since we no longer need to pin this css, we can remove pid_fork().
Note: the patch uses task_css_check(true), perhaps it makes sense to add a
helper or change task_css_set_check() to take cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem into
account.

If the new child migrates to another cgroup before cgroup_post_fork() calls
subsys->fork(), then both pids_can_attach() and pids_fork() will do the same
pids_uncharge(old_pids) + pids_charge(pids) sequence twice.
Change copy_process() to call threadgroup_change_begin/threadgroup_change_end
unconditionally. percpu_down_read() is cheap and this allows other cleanups,
see the next changes.
Also, this way we can unify cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem and dup_mmap_sem.

A css_set represents the relationship between a set of tasks and
css's. css_set never pinned the associated css's. This was okay
because tasks used to always disassociate immediately (in RCU sense) -
either a task is moved to a different css_set or exits and never
accesses css_set again.
Unfortunately, afcf6c8b7544 ("cgroup: add cgroup_subsys->free() method
and use it to fix pids controller") and patches leading up to it made
a zombie hold onto its css_set and deref the associated css's on its
release. Nothing pins the css's after exit and it might have already
been freed leading to use-after-free.

6f60eade2433 ("cgroup: generalize obtaining the handles of and
notifying cgroup files") introduced cftype->file_offset so that the
handles for per-css file instances can be recorded. These handles
then can be used, for example, to generate file modified
notifications.
Unfortunately, it made the wrong assumption that files are created
once for a given css and removed on its destruction. Due to the
dependencies among subsystems, a css may be hidden from userland and
then later shown again. This is implemented by removing and
re-creating the affected files, so the associated kernfs_node for a
given cgroup file may change over time. This incorrect assumption led
to the corruption of css->files lists.
Reimplement cftype->file_offset handling so that cgroup_file->kn is
protected by a lock and updated as files are created and destroyed.
This also makes keeping them on per-cgroup list unnecessary.

css_task_iter_next() checked @it->cur_task before grabbing
css_set_lock and assumed that the result won't change afterwards;
however, tasks could leave the cgroup being iterated terminating the
iterator before css_task_lock is acquired. If this happens,
css_task_iter_next() tries to calculate the current task from NULL
cg_list pointer leading to the following oops.

The stat files on the root cgroup shows stats for the whole system and
usually don't contain any information which isn't available through
the usual system monitoring mechanisms. Some controllers skip
collecting these duplicate stats to optimize cases where cgroup isn't
used and later try to emulate the result on demand.
This leads to complexities and subtle differences in the information
shown through different channels. This is entirely unnecessary and
cgroup v2 is dropping stat files which are duplicate from all
controllers. This patch removes "io.stat" from the root hierarchy.

pids controller is completely broken in that it uncharges when a task
exits allowing zombies to escape resource control. With the recent
updates, cgroup core now maintains cgroup association till task free
and pids controller can be fixed by uncharging on free instead of
exit.

cgroup_exit() is called when a task exits and disassociates the
exiting task from its cgroups and half-attach it to the root cgroup.
This is unnecessary and undesirable.
No controller actually needs an exiting task to be disassociated with
non-root cgroups. Both cpu and perf_event controllers update the
association to the root cgroup from their exit callbacks just to keep
consistent with the cgroup core behavior.
Also, this disassociation makes it difficult to track resources held
by zombies or determine where the zombies came from. Currently, pids
controller is completely broken as it uncharges on exit and zombies
always escape the resource restriction. With cgroup association being
reset on exit, fixing it is pretty painful.
There's no reason to reset cgroup membership on exit. The zombie can
be removed from its css_set so that it doesn't show up on
"cgroup.procs" and thus can't be migrated or interfere with cgroup
removal. It can still pin and point to the css_set so that its cgroup
membership is maintained. This patch makes cgroup core keep zombies
associated with their cgroups at the time of exit.
* Previous patches decoupled populated_cnt tracking from css_set
lifetime, so a dying task can be simply unlinked from its css_set
while pinning and pointing to the css_set. This keeps css_set
association from task side alive while hiding it from "cgroup.procs"
and populated_cnt tracking. The css_set reference is dropped when
the task_struct is freed.
* ->exit() callback no longer needs the css arguments as the
associated css never changes once PF_EXITING is set. Removed.
* cpu and perf_events controllers no longer need ->exit() callbacks.
There's no reason to explicitly switch away on exit. The final
schedule out is enough. The callbacks are removed.
* On traditional hierarchies, nothing changes. "/proc/PID/cgroup"
still reports "/" for all zombies. On the default hierarchy,
"/proc/PID/cgroup" keeps reporting the cgroup that the task belonged
to at the time of exit. If the cgroup gets removed before the task
is reaped, " (deleted)" is appended.

!CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

css_set_rwsem is the inner lock protecting css_sets and is accessed
from hot paths such as fork and exit. Internally, it has no reason to
be a rwsem or even mutex. There are no internal blocking operations
while holding it. This was rwsem because css task iteration used to
expose it to external iterator users. As the previous patch updated
css task iteration such that the locking is not leaked to its users,
there's no reason to keep it a rwsem.
This patch converts css_set_rwsem to a spinlock and rename it to
css_set_lock. It uses bh-safe operations as a planned usage needs to
access it from RCU callback context.

css_sets are synchronized through css_set_rwsem but the locking scheme
is kinda bizarre. The hot paths - fork and exit - have to write lock
the rwsem making the rw part pointless; furthermore, many readers
already hold cgroup_mutex.
One of the readers is css task iteration. It read locks the rwsem
over the entire duration of iteration. This leads to silly locking
behavior. When cpuset tries to migrate processes of a cgroup to a
different NUMA node, css_set_rwsem is held across the entire migration
attempt which can take a long time locking out forking, exiting and
other cgroup operations.
This patch updates css task iteration so that it locks css_set_rwsem
only while the iterator is being advanced. css task iteration
involves two levels - css_set and task iteration. As css_sets in use
are practically immutable, simply pinning the current one is enough
for resuming iteration afterwards. Task iteration is tricky as tasks
may leave their css_set while iteration is in progress. This is
solved by keeping track of active iterators and advancing them if
their next task leaves its css_set.
v2: put_task_struct() in css_task_iter_next() moved outside
css_set_rwsem. A later patch will add cgroup operations to
task_struct free path which may grab the same lock and this avoids
deadlock possibilities.
css_set_move_task() updated to use list_for_each_entry_safe() when
walking task_iters and advancing them. This is necessary as
advancing an iter may remove it from the list.
