Currently, blkg_conf_prep() expects input to be of the following form
MAJ:MIN NUM
and reads the NUM part into blkg_conf_ctx->v. This is quite
restrictive and gets in the way in implementing blkcg interface for
the unified hierarchy. This patch updates blkg_conf_prep() so that it
expects
MAJ:MIN BODY_STR
where BODY_STR is an arbitrary string. blkg_conf_ctx->v is replaced
with ->body which is a char pointer pointing to the start of BODY_STR.
Parsing of the body is moved to blkg_conf_prep()'s callers.
To allow using, for example, strsep() on blkg_conf_ctx->val, it is a
non-const pointer and to accommodate that const is dropped from @input
too.
This doesn't cause any behavior changes.

blkio interface has become messy over time and is currently the
largest. In addition to the inconsistent naming scheme, it has
multiple stat files which report more or less the same thing, a number
of debug stat files which expose internal details which shouldn't have
been part of the public interface in the first place, recursive and
non-recursive stats and leaf and non-leaf knobs.
Both recursive vs. non-recursive and leaf vs. non-leaf distinctions
don't make any sense on the unified hierarchy as only leaf cgroups can
contain processes. cgroups is going through a major interface
revision with the unified hierarchy involving significant fundamental
usage changes and given that a significant portion of the interface
doesn't make sense anymore, it's a good time to reorganize the
interface.
As the first step, this patch renames the external visible subsystem
name from "blkio" to "io". This is more concise, matches the other
two major subsystem names, "cpu" and "memory", and better suited as
blkcg will be involved in anything writeback related too whether an
actual block device is involved or not.
As the subsystem legacy_name is set to "blkio", the only userland
visible change outside the unified hierarchy is that blkcg is reported
as "io" instead of "blkio" in the subsystem initialized message during
boot. On the unified hierarchy, blkcg now appears as "io".

Currently, both cfq-iosched and blk-throttle keep track of
io_service_bytes and io_serviced stats. While keeping track of them
separately may be useful during development, it doesn't make much
sense otherwise. Also, blk-throttle was counting bio's as IOs while
cfq-iosched request's, which is more confusing than informative.
This patch adds ->stat_bytes and ->stat_ios to blkg (blkcg_gq),
removes the counterparts from cfq-iosched and blk-throttle and let
them print from the common blkg counters. The common counters are
incremented during bio issue in blkcg_bio_issue_check().
The outputs are still filtered by whether the policy has
blkg_policy_data on a given blkg, so cfq's output won't show up if it
has never been used for a given blkg. The only times when the outputs
would differ significantly are when policies are attached on the fly
or elevators are switched back and forth. Those are quite exceptional
operations and I don't think they warrant keeping separate counters.
v3: Update blkio-controller.txt accordingly.
v2: Account IOs during bio issues instead of request completions so
that bio-based drivers can be handled the same way.

cgroup stats are local to each cgroup and doesn't propagate to
ancestors by default. When recursive stats are necessary, the sum is
calculated over all the descendants. This initially was for backward
compatibility to support both group-local and recursive stats but this
mode of operation makes general sense as stat update is much hotter
thafn reporting those stats.
This however ends up losing recursive stats when a child is removed.
To work around this, cfq-iosched adds its stats to its parent
cfq_group->dead_stats which is summed up together when calculating
recursive stats.
It's planned that the core stats will be moved to blkcg_gq, so we want
to move the mechanism for keeping track of the stats of dead children
from cfq to blkcg core. This patch adds blkg_[rw]stat->aux_cnt which
are atomic64_t's keeping track of auxiliary counts which are excluded
when reading local counts but included for recursive.
blkg_[rw]stat_merge() which were used by cfq to implement dead_stats
are replaced by blkg_[rw]stat_add_aux(), and cfq now forwards stats of
a dead cgroup to the aux counts of parent->stats instead of separate
->dead_stats.
This will also help making blkg_[rw]stats per-cpu.

blkg (blkcg_gq) currently is created by blkcg policies invoking
blkg_lookup_create() which ends up repeating about the same code in
different policies. Theoretically, this can avoid the overhead of
looking and/or creating blkg's if blkcg is enabled but no policy is in
use; however, the cost of blkg lookup / creation is very low
especially if only the root blkcg is in use which is highly likely if
no blkcg policy is in active use - it boils down to a single very
predictable conditional and surrounding RCU protection.
This patch consolidates blkg creation to a new function
blkcg_bio_issue_check() which is called during bio issue from
generic_make_request_checks(). blkcg_bio_issue_check() is now the
only function which tries to create missing blkg's. The subsequent
policy and request_list operations just perform blkg_lookup() and if
missing falls back to the root.
* blk_get_rl() no longer tries to create blkg. It uses blkg_lookup()
instead of blkg_lookup_create().
* blk_throtl_bio() is now called from blkcg_bio_issue_check() with rcu
read locked and blkg already looked up. Both throtl_lookup_tg() and
throtl_lookup_create_tg() are dropped.
* cfq is similarly updated. cfq_lookup_create_cfqg() is replaced with
cfq_lookup_cfqg()which uses blkg_lookup().
This consolidates blkg handling and avoids unnecessary blkg creation
retries under memory pressure. In addition, this provides a common
bio entry point into blkcg where things like common accounting can be
performed.

A blkg (blkcg_gq) represents the relationship between a cgroup and

This is a bit unusual but was done this way mostly to simplify error

however, this is becoming too restrictive now that percpu memory can
be allocated without blocking.
This introduces two new mandatory blkcg_policy methods - pd_alloc_fn()

When a policy gets activated, it needs to allocate and install its
policy data on all existing blkg's (blkcg_gq's). Because blkg
iteration is protected by a spinlock, it currently counts the total
number of blkg's in the system, allocates the matching number of
policy data on a list and installs them during a single iteration.
This can be simplified by using speculative GFP_NOWAIT allocations
while iterating and falling back to a preallocated policy data on
failure. If the preallocated one has already been consumed, it
releases the lock, preallocate with GFP_KERNEL and then restarts the
iteration. This can be a bit more expensive than before but policy
activation is a very cold path and shouldn't matter.

e48453c386 ("block, cgroup: implement policy-specific per-blkcg
data") updated per-blkcg policy data to be dynamically allocated.
When a policy is registered, its policy data aren't created. Instead,
when the policy is activated on a queue, the policy data are allocated
if there are blkg's (blkcg_gq's) which are attached to a given blkcg.
This is buggy. Consider the following scenario.
1. A blkcg is created. No blkg's attached yet.
2. The policy is registered. No policy data is allocated.
3. The policy is activated on a queue. As the above blkcg doesn't
have any blkg's, it won't allocate the matching blkcg_policy_data.
4. An IO is issued from the blkcg and blkg is created and the blkcg
still doesn't have the matching policy data allocated.
With cfq-iosched, this leads to an oops.
It also doesn't free policy data on policy unregistration assuming
that freeing of all policy data on blkcg destruction should take care
of it; however, this also is incorrect.
1. A blkcg has policy data.
2. The policy gets unregistered but the policy data remains.
3. Another policy gets registered on the same slot.
4. Later, the new policy tries to allocate policy data on the previous
blkcg but the slot is already occupied and gets skipped. The
policy ends up operating on the policy data of the previous policy.
There's no reason to manage blkcg_policy_data lazily. The reason we
do lazy allocation of blkg's is that the number of all possible blkg's
is the product of cgroups and block devices which can reach a
surprising level. blkcg_policy_data is contrained by the number of
cgroups and shouldn't be a problem.
This patch makes blkcg_policy_data to be allocated for all existing
blkcg's on policy registration and freed on unregistration and removes
blkcg_policy_data handling from policy [de]activation paths. This
makes that blkcg_policy_data are created and removed with the policy
they belong to and fixes the above described problems.

blkcg_pol_mutex primarily protects the blkcg_policy array. It also
protects cgroup file type [un]registration during policy addition /
removal. This puts blkcg_pol_mutex outside cgroup internal
synchronization and in turn makes it impossible to grab from blkcg's
cgroup methods as that leads to cyclic dependency.
Another problematic dependency arising from this is through cgroup
interface file deactivation. Removing a cftype requires removing all
files of the type which in turn involves draining all on-going
invocations of the file methods. This means that an interface file
implementation can't grab blkcg_pol_mutex as draining can lead to AA
deadlock.
blkcg_reset_stats() is already in this situation. It currently
trylocks blkcg_pol_mutex and then unwinds and retries the whole
operation on failure, which is cumbersome at best. It has a lengthy
comment explaining how cgroup internal synchronization is involved and
expected to be updated but as explained above this doesn't need cgroup
internal locking to deadlock. It's a self-contained AA deadlock.
The described circular dependencies can be easily broken by moving
cftype [un]registration out of blkcg_pol_mutex and protect them with
an outer mutex. This patch introduces blkcg_pol_register_mutex which
wraps entire policy [un]registration including cftype operations and
shrinks blkcg_pol_mutex critical section. This also makes the trylock
dancing in blkcg_reset_stats() unnecessary. Removed.
This patch is necessary for the following blkcg_policy_data allocation

The block IO (blkio) controller enables the block layer to provide service
guarantees in a hierarchical fashion. Specifically, service guarantees
are provided by registered request-accounting policies. As of now, a
proportional-share and a throttling policy are available. They are
implemented, respectively, by the CFQ I/O scheduler and the blk-throttle
subsystem. Unfortunately, as for adding new policies, the current
implementation of the block IO controller is only halfway ready to allow
new policies to be plugged in. This commit provides a solution to make
the block IO controller fully ready to handle new policies.
In what follows, we first describe briefly the current state, and then
list the changes made by this commit.
The throttling policy does not need any per-cgroup information to perform
its task. In contrast, the proportional share policy uses, for each cgroup,
both the weight assigned by the user to the cgroup, and a set of dynamically-
computed weights, one for each device.
The first, user-defined weight is stored in the blkcg data structure: the
block IO controller allocates a private blkcg data structure for each
cgroup in the blkio cgroups hierarchy (regardless of which policy is active).
In other words, the block IO controller internally mirrors the blkio cgroups
with private blkcg data structures.
On the other hand, for each cgroup and device, the corresponding dynamically-
computed weight is maintained in the following, different way. For each device,
the block IO controller keeps a private blkcg_gq structure for each cgroup in
blkio. In other words, block IO also keeps one private mirror copy of the blkio
cgroups hierarchy for each device, made of blkcg_gq structures.
Each blkcg_gq structure keeps per-policy information in a generic array of
dynamically-allocated 'dedicated' data structures, one for each registered
policy (so currently the array contains two elements). To be inserted into the
generic array, each dedicated data structure embeds a generic blkg_policy_data
structure. Consider now the array contained in the blkcg_gq structure
corresponding to a given pair of cgroup and device: one of the elements
of the array contains the dedicated data structure for the proportional-share
policy, and this dedicated data structure contains the dynamically-computed
weight for that pair of cgroup and device.
The generic strategy adopted for storing per-policy data in blkcg_gq structures
is already capable of handling new policies, whereas the one adopted with blkcg
structures is not, because per-policy data are hard-coded in the blkcg
structures themselves (currently only data related to the proportional-
share policy).
This commit addresses the above issues through the following changes:
. It generalizes blkcg structures so that per-policy data are stored in the same
way as in blkcg_gq structures.
Specifically, it lets also the blkcg structure store per-policy data in a
generic array of dynamically-allocated dedicated data structures. We will
refer to these data structures as blkcg dedicated data structures, to
distinguish them from the dedicated data structures inserted in the generic
arrays kept by blkcg_gq structures.
To allow blkcg dedicated data structures to be inserted in the generic array
inside a blkcg structure, this commit also introduces a new blkcg_policy_data
structure, which is the equivalent of blkg_policy_data for blkcg dedicated
data structures.
. It adds to the blkcg_policy structure, i.e., to the descriptor of a policy, a
cpd_size field and a cpd_init field, to be initialized by the policy with,
respectively, the size of the blkcg dedicated data structures, and the
address of a constructor function for blkcg dedicated data structures.
. It moves the CFQ-specific fields embedded in the blkcg data structure (i.e.,
the fields related to the proportional-share policy), into a new blkcg
dedicated data structure called cfq_group_data.

A blkg (blkcg_gq) can be congested and decongested independently from
other blkgs on the same request_queue. Accordingly, for cgroup
writeback support, the congestion status at bdi (backing_dev_info)
should be split and updated separately from matching blkg's.
This patch prepares by adding blkg->wb_congested and associating a
blkg with its matching per-blkcg bdi_writeback_congested on creation.
v2: Updated to associate bdi_writeback_congested instead of
bdi_writeback.

For the planned cgroup writeback support, on each bdi
(backing_dev_info), each memcg will be served by a separate wb
(bdi_writeback). This patch updates bdi so that a bdi can host
multiple wbs (bdi_writebacks).
On the default hierarchy, blkcg implicitly enables memcg. This allows
using memcg's page ownership for attributing writeback IOs, and every
memcg - blkcg combination can be served by its own wb by assigning a
dedicated wb to each memcg. This means that there may be multiple
wb's of a bdi mapped to the same blkcg. As congested state is per
blkcg - bdi combination, those wb's should share the same congested
state. This is achieved by tracking congested state via
bdi_writeback_congested structs which are keyed by blkcg.
bdi->wb remains unchanged and will keep serving the root cgroup.
cgwb's (cgroup wb's) for non-root cgroups are created on-demand or
looked up while dirtying an inode according to the memcg of the page
being dirtied or current task. Each cgwb is indexed on bdi->cgwb_tree
by its memcg id. Once an inode is associated with its wb, it can be
retrieved using inode_to_wb().
Currently, none of the filesystems has FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK and all
pages will keep being associated with bdi->wb.
v3: inode_attach_wb() in account_page_dirtied() moved inside
mapping_cap_account_dirty() block where it's known to be !NULL.
Also, an unnecessary NULL check before kfree() removed. Both
detected by the kbuild bot.
v2: Updated so that wb association is per inode and wb is per memcg
rather than blkcg.

Add global constant blkcg_root_css which points to &blkcg_root.css.
This will be used by cgroup writeback support. If blkcg is disabled,
it's defined as ERR_PTR(-EINVAL).

Currently, blkcg does a minor optimization where the root blkcg is
created when the first blkcg policy is activated on a queue and
destroyed on the deactivation of the last. On systems where blkcg is
configured but not used, this saves one blkcg_gq struct per queue. On
systems where blkcg is actually used, there's no difference. The only
case where this can lead to any meaninful, albeit still minute, save
in memory consumption is when all blkcg policies are deactivated after
being widely used in the system, which is a hihgly unlikely scenario.
The conditional existence of root blkcg_gq has already created several
bugs in blkcg and became an issue once again for the new per-cgroup
wb_congested mechanism for cgroup writeback support leading to a NULL
dereference when no blkcg policy is active. This is really not worth
bothering with. This patch makes blkcg always allocate and link the
root blkcg_gq and release it only on queue destruction.

Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo:
"Mostly changes to get the v2 interface ready. The core features are
mostly ready now and I think it's reasonable to expect to drop the
devel mask in one or two devel cycles at least for a subset of
controllers.
- cgroup added a controller dependency mechanism so that block cgroup
can depend on memory cgroup. This will be used to finally support
IO provisioning on the writeback traffic, which is currently being
implemented.
- The v2 interface now uses a separate table so that the interface
files for the new interface are explicitly declared in one place.
Each controller will explicitly review and add the files for the
new interface.
- cpuset is getting ready for the hierarchical behavior which is in
the similar style with other controllers so that an ancestor's
configuration change doesn't change the descendants' configurations
irreversibly and processes aren't silently migrated when a CPU or
node goes down.
All the changes are to the new interface and no behavior changed for
the multiple hierarchies"

Currently, cftypes added by cgroup_add_cftypes() are 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 addition functions 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 adds cgroup_add_legacy_cftypes() which
currently is a simple wrapper around cgroup_add_cftypes() and replaces
all cgroup_add_cftypes() usages with it.
While at it, this patch drops a completely spurious return from
__hugetlb_cgroup_file_init().
This patch doesn't introduce any functional differences.

776687bce4 ("block, blk-mq: draining can't be skipped even if
bypass_depth was non-zero") made it easier to trigger this bug by
making blk_queue_bypass_start() drain even when it loses the first
bypass test to blk_cleanup_queue(); however, the bug has always been
there even before the commit as blk_queue_bypass_start() could race
against queue destruction, win the initial bypass test but perform the
actual draining after blk_cleanup_queue() already destroyed all blkgs.
Fix it by skippping calling into policy draining if all the blkgs are
already gone.

Currently, the blkio subsystem attributes all of writeback IOs to the
root. One of the issues is that there's no way to tell who originated
a writeback IO from block layer. Those IOs are usually issued
asynchronously from a task which didn't have anything to do with
actually generating the dirty pages. The memory subsystem, when
enabled, already keeps track of the ownership of each dirty page and
it's desirable for blkio to piggyback instead of adding its own
per-page tag.
cgroup now has a mechanism to express such dependency -
cgroup_subsys->depends_on. This patch declares that blkcg depends on
memcg so that memcg is enabled automatically on the default hierarchy
when available. Future changes will make blkcg map the memcg tag to
find out the cgroup to blame for writeback IOs.
As this means that a memcg may be made invisible, this patch also
implements css_reset() for memcg which resets its basic
configurations. This implementation will probably need to be expanded
to cover other states which are used in the default hierarchy.
v2: blkcg's dependency on memcg is wrapped with CONFIG_MEMCG to avoid
build failure. Reported by kbuild test robot.

Hello,
So, this patch should do. Joe, Vivek, can one of you guys please
verify that the oops goes away with this patch?
Jens, the original thread can be read at
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1720729
The fix converts blkg->refcnt from int to atomic_t. It does some
overhead but it should be minute compared to everything else which is
going on and the involved cacheline bouncing, so I think it's highly
unlikely to cause any noticeable difference. Also, the refcnt in
question should be converted to a perpcu_ref for blk-mq anyway, so the
atomic_t is likely to go away pretty soon anyway.
Thanks.

__blkg_release_rcu() may be invoked after the associated request_queue
is released with a RCU grace period inbetween. As such, the function
and callbacks invoked from it must not dereference the associated
request_queue. This is clearly indicated in the comment above the
function.
Unfortunately, while trying to fix a different issue, 2a4fd070ee
("blkcg: move bulk of blkcg_gq release operations to the RCU
callback") ignored this and added [un]locking of @blkg->q->queue_lock
to __blkg_release_rcu(). This of course can cause oops as the
request_queue may be long gone by the time this code gets executed.

The request_queue locking was added because blkcg_gq->refcnt is an int
protected with the queue lock and __blkg_release_rcu() needs to put
the parent. Let's fix it by making blkcg_gq->refcnt an atomic_t and
dropping queue locking in the function.
Given the general heavy weight of the current request_queue and blkcg
operations, this is unlikely to cause any noticeable overhead.
Moreover, blkcg_gq->refcnt is likely to be converted to percpu_ref in
the near future, so whatever (most likely negligible) overhead it may
add is temporary.

"Final small batch of fixes to be included before -rc1. Some general
cleanups in here as well, but some of the blk-mq fixes we need for the
NVMe conversion and/or scsi-mq. The pull request contains:
- Support for not merging across a specified "chunk size", if set by
the driver. Some NVMe devices perform poorly for IO that crosses
such a chunk, so we need to support it generically as part of
request merging avoid having to do complicated split logic. From
me.
- Bump max tag depth to 10Ki tags. Some scsi devices have a huge
shared tag space. Before we failed with EINVAL if a too large tag
depth was specified, now we truncate it and pass back the actual
value. From me.
- Various blk-mq rq init fixes from me and others.

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.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot updates for cgroup:
- The biggest one is cgroup's conversion to kernfs. cgroup took
after the long abandoned vfs-entangled sysfs implementation and
made it even more convoluted over time. cgroup's internal objects
were fused with vfs objects which also brought in vfs locking and
object lifetime rules. Naturally, there are places where vfs rules
don't fit and nasty hacks, such as credential switching or lock
dance interleaving inode mutex and cgroup_mutex with object serial
number comparison thrown in to decide whether the operation is
actually necessary, needed to be employed.
After conversion to kernfs, internal object lifetime and locking
rules are mostly isolated from vfs interactions allowing shedding
of several nasty hacks and overall simplification. This will also
allow implmentation of operations which may affect multiple cgroups
which weren't possible before as it would have required nesting
i_mutexes.
- Various simplifications including dropping of module support,
easier cgroup name/path handling, simplified cgroup file type
handling and task_cg_lists optimization.
- Prepatory changes for the planned unified hierarchy, which is still
a patchset away from being actually operational. The dummy
hierarchy is updated to serve as the default unified hierarchy.
Controllers which aren't claimed by other hierarchies are
associated with it, which BTW was what the dummy hierarchy was for
anyway.
- Various fixes from Li and others. This pull request includes some
patches to add missing slab.h to various subsystems. This was
triggered xattr.h include removal from cgroup.h. cgroup.h
indirectly got included a lot of files which brought in xattr.h
which brought in slab.h.
There are several merge commits - one to pull in kernfs updates
necessary for converting cgroup (already in upstream through
driver-core), others for interfering changes in the fixes branch"

(Trivial patch.)
If the code is looking at the RCU-protected pointer itself, but not
dereferencing it, the rcu_dereference() functions can be downgraded to
rcu_access_pointer(). This commit makes this downgrade in blkg_destroy()
and ioc_destroy_icq(), both of which simply compare the RCU-protected
pointer against another pointer with no dereferencing.

If !NULL, @skip_css makes cgroup_taskset_for_each() skip the matching
css. The intention of the interface is to make it easy to skip css's
(cgroup_subsys_states) which already match the migration target;
however, this is entirely unnecessary as migration taskset doesn't
include tasks which are already in the target cgroup. Drop @skip_css

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.

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.

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.

cgroup is in the process of converting to css (cgroup_subsys_state)
from cgroup as the principal subsystem interface handle. This is
mostly to prepare for the unified hierarchy support where css's will
be created and destroyed dynamically but also helps cleaning up
subsystem implementations as css is usually what they are interested
in anyway.
cgroup_taskset which is used by the subsystem attach methods is the
last cgroup subsystem API which isn't using css as the handle. Update
cgroup_taskset_cur_cgroup() to cgroup_taskset_cur_css() and
cgroup_taskset_for_each() to take @skip_css instead of @skip_cgrp.
The conversions are pretty mechanical. One exception is
cpuset::cgroup_cs(), which lost its last user and got removed.
This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes.

cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using css
(cgroup_subsys_state) as the primary handle instead of cgroup in
subsystem API. 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.

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.

cgroup is transitioning to using css (cgroup_subsys_state) instead of
cgroup as the primary subsystem handle. The cgroupfs file interface
will be converted to use css's which requires finding out the
subsystem from cftype so that the matching css can be determined from
the cgroup.
This patch adds cftype->ss which points to the subsystem the file
belongs to. The field is initialized while a cftype is being
registered. This makes it unnecessary to explicitly specify the
subsystem for other cftype handling functions. @ss argument dropped
from various cftype handling functions.

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. Suggested
by Li Zefan.

With the recent updates, blk-throttle is finally ready for proper
hierarchy support. Dispatching now honors service_queue->parent_sq
and propagates correctly. The only thing missing is setting
->parent_sq correctly so that throtl_grp hierarchy matches the cgroup
hierarchy.
This patch updates throtl_pd_init() such that service_queues form the
same hierarchy as the cgroup hierarchy if sane_behavior is enabled.

Currently, when the last reference of a blkcg_gq is put, all then
release operations sans the actual freeing happen directly in
blkg_put(). As blkg_put() may be called under queue_lock, all
pd_exit_fn()s may be too. This makes it impossible for pd_exit_fn()s
to use del_timer_sync() on timers which grab the queue_lock which is
an irq-safe lock due to the deadlock possibility described in the
comment on top of del_timer_sync().
This can be easily avoided by perfoming the release operations in the
RCU callback instead of directly from blkg_put(). This patch moves
the blkcg_gq release operations to the RCU callback.
As this leaves __blkg_release() with only call_rcu() invocation,
blkg_rcu_free() is renamed to __blkg_release_rcu(), exported and
call_rcu() invocation is now done directly from blkg_put() instead of
going through __blkg_release() which is removed.

Currently, when creating a new blkcg_gq, each policy's pd_init_fn() is
invoked in blkg_alloc() before the parent is linked. This makes it
difficult for policies to perform initializations which are dependent
on the parent.
This patch moves pd_init_fn() invocations to blkg_create() after the
parent blkg is linked where the new blkg is fully initialized. As
this means that blkg_free() can't assume that pd's are initialized,
pd_exit_fn() invocations are moved to __blkg_release(). This
guarantees that pd_exit_fn() is also invoked with fully initialized
blkgs with valid parent pointers.
This will help implementing hierarchy support in blk-throttle.

In blkg_create(), after lookup of parent fails, the control jumps to
error path with the error code encoded into @blkg. The error path
doesn't use @blkg for the return value. It returns ERR_PTR(ret).
Make lookup fail path set @ret instead of @blkg.
Note that the parent lookup is guaranteed to succeed at that point and
the condition check is purely for sanity and triggers WARN when fails.
As such, I don't think it's necessary to mark it for -stable.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

cfq blkcg is about to grow proper hierarchy handling, where a child
blkg's weight would nest inside the parent's. This makes tasks in a
blkg to compete against both tasks in the sibling blkgs and the tasks
of child blkgs.
We're gonna use the existing weight as the group weight which decides
the blkg's weight against its siblings. This patch introduces a new
weight - leaf_weight - which decides the weight of a blkg against the
child blkgs.
It's named leaf_weight because another way to look at it is that each
internal blkg nodes have a hidden child leaf node which contains all
its tasks and leaf_weight is the weight of the leaf node and handled
the same as the weight of the child blkgs.
This patch only adds leaf_weight fields and exposes it to userland.
The new weight isn't actually used anywhere yet. Note that
cfq-iosched currently offcially supports only single level hierarchy
and root blkgs compete with the first level blkgs - ie. root weight is
basically being used as leaf_weight. For root blkgs, the two weights
are kept in sync for backward compatibility.
v2: cfqd->root_group->leaf_weight initialization was missing from
cfq_init_queue() causing divide by zero when
!CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_SCHED. Fix it. Reported by Fengguang.

Currently a child blkg (blkcg_gq) can be created even if its parent
doesn't exist. ie. Given a blkg, it's not guaranteed that its
ancestors will exist. This makes it difficult to implement proper
hierarchy support for blkcg policies.
Always create blkgs recursively and make a child blkg hold a reference
to its parent. blkg->parent is added so that finding the parent is
easy. blkcg_parent() is also added in the process.
This change can be visible to userland. e.g. while issuing IO in a
nested cgroup didn't affect the ancestors at all, now it will
initialize all ancestor blkgs and zero stats for the request_queue
will always appear on them. While this is userland visible, this
shouldn't cause any functional difference.

- Don't hide EFI partitions under advanced partition types. It's

- Cleanup of using -1 instead of the proper NUMA_NO_NODE
- Export control of bdi flusher thread CPU mask and default to using
the home node (if known) from Jeff.
- Export unplug tracepoint for MD.
- Core improvements from Shaohua. Reinstate the recursive merge, as
the original bug has been fixed. Add plugging for discard and also
fix a problem handling non pow-of-2 discard limits.
There's a trivial merge in block/blk-exec.c due to a fix that went

QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD is used to indicate that queuing new requests must
stop. After this flag has been set queue draining starts. However,
during the queue draining phase it is still safe to invoke the
queue's request_fn, so QUEUE_FLAG_DYING is a better name for this
flag.

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. Fixed a typo spotted by
Glauber.
v4: Check ->broken_hierarchy after cgroup creation is complete so that
->create() can affect the result per Michal. Dropped unnecessary
memcg root handling per Michal.

Currently, request_queue has one request_list to allocate requests
from regardless of blkcg of the IO being issued. When the unified
request pool is used up, cfq proportional IO limits become meaningless
- whoever grabs the next request being freed wins the race regardless
of the configured weights.
This can be easily demonstrated by creating a blkio cgroup w/ very low
weight, put a program which can issue a lot of random direct IOs there
and running a sequential IO from a different cgroup. As soon as the
request pool is used up, the sequential IO bandwidth crashes.
This patch implements per-blkg request_list. Each blkg has its own
request_list and any IO allocates its request from the matching blkg
making blkcgs completely isolated in terms of request allocation.
* Root blkcg uses the request_list embedded in each request_queue,
which was renamed to @q->root_rl from @q->rq. While making blkcg rl
handling a bit harier, this enables avoiding most overhead for root
blkcg.
* Queue fullness is properly per request_list but bdi isn't blkcg
aware yet, so congestion state currently just follows the root
blkcg. As writeback isn't aware of blkcg yet, this works okay for
async congestion but readahead may get the wrong signals. It's
better than blkcg completely collapsing with shared request_list but
needs to be improved with future changes.
* After this change, each block cgroup gets a full request pool making
resource consumption of each cgroup higher. This makes allowing
non-root users to create cgroups less desirable; however, note that
allowing non-root users to directly manage cgroups is already
severely broken regardless of this patch - each block cgroup
consumes kernel memory and skews IO weight (IO weights are not
hierarchical).
v2: queue-sysfs.txt updated and patch description udpated as suggested
by Vivek.
v3: blk_get_rl() wasn't checking error return from
blkg_lookup_create() and may cause oops on lookup failure. Fix it
by falling back to root_rl on blkg lookup failures. This problem
was spotted by Rakesh Iyer <rni@google.com>.
v4: Updated to accomodate 458f27a982 "block: Avoid missed wakeup in
request waitqueue". blk_drain_queue() now wakes up waiters on all
blkg->rl on the target queue.

blkg lookup is currently performed by traversing linked list anchored
at blkcg->blkg_list. This is very unscalable and with blk-throttle
enabled and enough request queues on the system, this can get very
ugly quickly (blk-throttle performs look up on every bio submission).
This patch makes blkcg use radix tree to index blkgs combined with
simple last-looked-up hint. This is mostly identical to how icqs are
indexed from ioc.
Note that because __blkg_lookup() may be invoked without holding queue
lock, hint is only updated from __blkg_lookup_create(). Due to cfq's
cfqq caching, this makes hint updates overly lazy. This will be
improved with scheduled blkcg aware request allocation.

All blkcg policies were assumed to be enabled on all request_queues.
Due to various implementation obstacles, during the recent blkcg core
updates, this was temporarily implemented as shooting down all !root
blkgs on elevator switch and policy [de]registration combined with
half-broken in-place root blkg updates. In addition to being buggy
and racy, this meant losing all blkcg configurations across those
events.
Now that blkcg is cleaned up enough, this patch replaces the temporary
implementation with proper per-queue policy activation. Each blkcg
policy should call the new blkcg_[de]activate_policy() to enable and
disable the policy on a specific queue. blkcg_activate_policy()
allocates and installs policy data for the policy for all existing
blkgs. blkcg_deactivate_policy() does the reverse. If a policy is
not enabled for a given queue, blkg printing / config functions skip
the respective blkg for the queue.
blkcg_activate_policy() also takes care of root blkg creation, and
cfq_init_queue() and blk_throtl_init() are updated accordingly.
This replaces blkcg_bypass_{start|end}() and update_root_blkg_pd()
unnecessary. Dropped.

blkcg conf/stat handling is convoluted in that details which belong to
specific policy implementations are all out in blkcg core and then
policies hook into core layer to access and manipulate confs and
stats. This sadly achieves both inflexibility (confs/stats can't be
modified without messing with blkcg core) and complexity (all the
call-ins and call-backs).
The previous patches restructured conf and stat handling code such
that they can be separated out. This patch relocates the file
handling part. All conf/stat file handling code which belongs to
BLKIO_POLICY_PROP is moved to cfq-iosched.c and all
BKLIO_POLICY_THROTL code to blk-throtl.c.
The move is verbatim except for blkio_update_group_{weight|bps|iops}()
callbacks which relays conf changes to policies. The configuration
settings are handled in policies themselves so the relaying isn't
necessary. Conf setting functions are modified to directly call
per-policy update functions and the relaying mechanism is dropped.

blkcg uses u64_stats_sync to avoid reading wrong u64 statistic values
on 32bit archs and some stat counters have subtypes to distinguish
read/writes and sync/async IOs. The stat code paths are confusing and
involve a lot of going back and forth between blkcg core and specific
policy implementations, and synchronization and subtype handling are
open coded in blkcg core.
This patch introduces struct blkg_stat and blkg_rwstat which, with
accompanying operations, encapsulate stat updating and accessing with
proper synchronization.
blkg_stat is simple u64 counter with 64bit read-access protection.
blkg_rwstat is the one with rw and [a]sync subcounters and takes @rw
flags to distinguish IO subtypes (%REQ_WRITE and %REQ_SYNC) and
replaces stat_sub_type indexed arrays.
All counters in blkio_group_stats and blkio_group_stats_cpu are
replaced with either blkg_stat or blkg_rwstat along with all users.
This does add one u64_stats_sync per counter and increase stats_sync
operations but they're empty/noops on 64bit archs and blkcg doesn't
have too many counters, especially with DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP off.
While the currently resulting code isn't necessarily simpler at the
moment, this will enable further clean up of blkcg stats code.
- BLKIO_STAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL} renamed to
BLKG_RWSTAT_{READ|WRITE|SYNC|ASYNC|TOTAL}.
- blkg_stat_add() replaces blkio_add_stat() and
blkio_check_and_dec_stat(). Note that BUG_ON() on underflow in the
latter function no longer exists. It's *way* better to have
underflowed stat counters than oopsing.
- blkio_group_stats->dequeue is now a proper u64 stat counter instead
of ulong.
- reset_stats() updated to clear each stat counters individually and
BLKG_STATS_DEBUG_CLEAR_{START|SIZE} are removed.
- Some functions reconstruct rw flags from direction and sync
booleans. This will be removed by future patches.

blkiocg_reset_stats() implements stat reset for blkio.reset_stats
cgroupfs file. This feature is very unconventional and something
which shouldn't have been merged. It's only useful when there's only
one user or tool looking at the stats. As soon as multiple users
and/or tools are involved, it becomes useless as resetting disrupts
other usages. There are very good reasons why all other stats expect
readers to read values at the start and end of a period and subtract
to determine delta over the period.
The implementation is rather complex - some fields shouldn't be
cleared and it saves some fields, resets whole and restores for some
reason. Reset of percpu stats is also racy. The comment points to
64bit store atomicity for the reason but even without that stores for
zero can simply race with other CPUs doing RMW and get clobbered.

* Clear selectively instead of resetting and restoring.
* Grouping debug stat fields to be reset and using memset() over them.

Current per cpu stat allocation assumes GFP_KERNEL allocation flag. But in

- move alloc_node location in structure
- reduce the size of names of some of the fields
- Reduce the scope of locking of alloc_list_lock

v3 -> Andrew suggested to put some comments in the code. Also raised
concerns about trying to allocate infinitely in case of allocation
failure. I have changed the logic to sleep for 10ms before retrying.

blkgs are chained from both blkcgs and request_queues and thus
subjected to two locks - blkcg->lock and q->queue_lock. As both blkcg
and q can go away anytime, locking during removal is tricky. It's
currently solved by wrapping removal inside RCU, which makes the
synchronization complex. There are three locks to worry about - the
outer RCU, q lock and blkcg lock, and it leads to nasty subtle
complications like conditional synchronize_rcu() on queue exit paths.
For all other paths, blkcg lock is naturally nested inside q lock and
the only exception is blkcg removal path, which is a very cold path
and can be implemented as clumsy but conceptually-simple reverse
double lock dancing.
This patch updates blkg removal path such that blkgs are removed while
holding both q and blkcg locks, which is trivial for request queue
exit path - blkg_destroy_all(). The blkcg removal path,
blkiocg_pre_destroy(), implements reverse double lock dancing
essentially identical to ioc_release_fn().
This simplifies blkg locking - no half-dead blkgs to worry about. Now
unnecessary RCU annotations will be removed by the next patch.

Currently, blkg is per cgroup-queue-policy combination. This is
unnatural and leads to various convolutions in partially used
duplicate fields in blkg, config / stat access, and general management
of blkgs.
This patch make blkg's per cgroup-queue and let them serve all
policies. blkgs are now created and destroyed by blkcg core proper.
This will allow further consolidation of common management logic into
blkcg core and API with better defined semantics and layering.
As a transitional step to untangle blkg management, elvswitch and
policy [de]registration, all blkgs except the root blkg are being shot
down during elvswitch and bypass. This patch adds blkg_root_update()
to update root blkg in place on policy change. This is hacky and racy
but should be good enough as interim step until we get locking
simplified and switch over to proper in-place update for all blkgs.
-v2: Root blkgs need to be updated on elvswitch too and blkg_alloc()
comment wasn't updated according to the function change. Fixed.
Both pointed out by Vivek.
-v3: v2 updated blkg_destroy_all() to invoke update_root_blkg_pd() for
all policies. This freed root pd during elvswitch before the
last queue finished exiting and led to oops. Directly invoke
update_root_blkg_pd() only on BLKIO_POLICY_PROP from
cfq_exit_queue(). This also is closer to what will be done with
proper in-place blkg update. Reported by Vivek.

Currently, blkg points to the associated blkcg via its css_id. This
unnecessarily complicates dereferencing blkcg. Let blkg hold a
reference to the associated blkcg and point directly to it and disable
css_id on blkio_subsys.
This change requires splitting blkiocg_destroy() into
blkiocg_pre_destroy() and blkiocg_destroy() so that all blkg's can be
destroyed and all the blkcg references held by them dropped during
cgroup removal.

blk-cgroup printing code currently assumes that there is a device/disk
associated with every queue in the system, but modules like floppy,
can instantiate request queues without registering disk which can lead
to oops.
Skip the queue/blkg which don't have dev/disk associated with them.
-tj: Factored out backing_dev_info check into blkg_dev_name().
