cpuset: Enable cpuset controller in default hierarchy
Given the fact that thread mode had been merged into 4.14, it is now time to enable cpuset to be used in the default hierarchy (cgroup v2) as it is clearly threaded. The cpuset controller had experienced feature creep since its introduction more than a decade ago. Besides the core cpus and mems control files to limit cpus and memory nodes, there are a bunch of additional features that can be controlled from the userspace. Some of the features are of doubtful usefulness and may not be actively used. This patch enables cpuset controller in the default hierarchy with a minimal set of features, namely just the cpus and mems and their effective_* counterparts. We can certainly add more features to the default hierarchy in the future if there is a real user need for them later on. Alternatively, with the unified hiearachy, it may make more sense to move some of those additional cpuset features, if desired, to memory controller or may be to the cpu controller instead of staying with cpuset.

Cpuset
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
The "cpuset" controller provides a mechanism for constraining
|
||||
the CPU and memory node placement of tasks to only the resources
|
||||
specified in the cpuset interface files in a task's current cgroup.
|
||||
This is especially valuable on large NUMA systems where placing jobs
|
||||
on properly sized subsets of the systems with careful processor and
|
||||
memory placement to reduce cross-node memory access and contention
|
||||
can improve overall system performance.
|
||||
|
||||
The "cpuset" controller is hierarchical. That means the controller
|
||||
cannot use CPUs or memory nodes not allowed in its parent.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Cpuset Interface Files
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
cpuset.cpus
|
||||
A read-write multiple values file which exists on non-root
|
||||
cpuset-enabled cgroups.
|
||||
|
||||
It lists the requested CPUs to be used by tasks within this
|
||||
cgroup. The actual list of CPUs to be granted, however, is
|
||||
subjected to constraints imposed by its parent and can differ
|
||||
from the requested CPUs.
|
||||
|
||||
The CPU numbers are comma-separated numbers or ranges.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
# cat cpuset.cpus
|
||||
0-4,6,8-10
|
||||
|
||||
An empty value indicates that the cgroup is using the same
|
||||
setting as the nearest cgroup ancestor with a non-empty
|
||||
"cpuset.cpus" or all the available CPUs if none is found.
|
||||
|
||||
The value of "cpuset.cpus" stays constant until the next update
|
||||
and won't be affected by any CPU hotplug events.
|
||||
|
||||
cpuset.cpus.effective
|
||||
A read-only multiple values file which exists on non-root
|
||||
cpuset-enabled cgroups.
|
||||
|
||||
It lists the onlined CPUs that are actually granted to this
|
||||
cgroup by its parent. These CPUs are allowed to be used by
|
||||
tasks within the current cgroup.
|
||||
|
||||
If "cpuset.cpus" is empty, the "cpuset.cpus.effective" file shows
|
||||
all the CPUs from the parent cgroup that can be available to
|
||||
be used by this cgroup. Otherwise, it should be a subset of
|
||||
"cpuset.cpus" unless none of the CPUs listed in "cpuset.cpus"
|
||||
can be granted. In this case, it will be treated just like an
|
||||
empty "cpuset.cpus".
|
||||
|
||||
Its value will be affected by CPU hotplug events.
|
||||
|
||||
cpuset.mems
|
||||
A read-write multiple values file which exists on non-root
|
||||
cpuset-enabled cgroups.
|
||||
|
||||
It lists the requested memory nodes to be used by tasks within
|
||||
this cgroup. The actual list of memory nodes granted, however,
|
||||
is subjected to constraints imposed by its parent and can differ
|
||||
from the requested memory nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
The memory node numbers are comma-separated numbers or ranges.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
# cat cpuset.mems
|
||||
0-1,3
|
||||
|
||||
An empty value indicates that the cgroup is using the same
|
||||
setting as the nearest cgroup ancestor with a non-empty
|
||||
"cpuset.mems" or all the available memory nodes if none
|
||||
is found.
|
||||
|
||||
The value of "cpuset.mems" stays constant until the next update
|
||||
and won't be affected by any memory nodes hotplug events.
|
||||
|
||||
cpuset.mems.effective
|
||||
A read-only multiple values file which exists on non-root
|
||||
cpuset-enabled cgroups.
|
||||
|
||||
It lists the onlined memory nodes that are actually granted to
|
||||
this cgroup by its parent. These memory nodes are allowed to
|
||||
be used by tasks within the current cgroup.
|
||||
|
||||
If "cpuset.mems" is empty, it shows all the memory nodes from the
|
||||
parent cgroup that will be available to be used by this cgroup.
|
||||
Otherwise, it should be a subset of "cpuset.mems" unless none of
|
||||
the memory nodes listed in "cpuset.mems" can be granted. In this
|
||||
case, it will be treated just like an empty "cpuset.mems".
|
||||
|
||||
Its value will be affected by memory nodes hotplug events.
