net: netprio: rename config to be more consistent with cgroup configs

2014-01-03T22:41:42+00:00

While we're at it and introduced CGROUP_NET_CLASSID, lets also make
NETPRIO_CGROUP more consistent with the rest of cgroups and rename it
into CONFIG_CGROUP_NET_PRIO so that for networking, we now have
CONFIG_CGROUP_NET_{PRIO,CLASSID}. This not only makes the CONFIG
option consistent among networking cgroups, but also among cgroups
CONFIG conventions in general as the vast majority has a prefix of
CONFIG_CGROUP_.

net: net_cls: move cgroupfs classid handling into core

2014-01-03T22:41:41+00:00

Zefan Li requested [1] to perform the following cleanup/refactoring:

- Split cgroupfs classid handling into net core to better express a
  possible more generic use.

- Disable module support for cgroupfs bits as the majority of other
  cgroupfs subsystems do not have that, and seems to be not wished
  from cgroup side. Zefan probably might want to follow-up for netprio
  later on.

- By this, code can be further reduced which previously took care of
  functionality built when compiled as module.

cgroupfs bits are being placed under net/core/netclassid_cgroup.c, so
that we are consistent with {netclassid,netprio}_cgroup naming that is
under net/core/ as suggested by Zefan.

No change in functionality, but only code refactoring that is being
done here.

cgroup: remove bcache_subsys_id which got added stealthily

2013-07-09T23:30:35+00:00

cafe563591 ("bcache: A block layer cache") added a new cgroup
subsystem bcache_subsys without proper review and ack.  bcache_subsys
seems to use cgroup for group stats and per-group cache_mode
configuration.  This is very much the type of usage that we don't want
to allow.

Fortunately, CONFIG_CGROUP_BCACHE which enables bcache_subsys is
currently commented out, so this shouldn't have any upstream users.
Let's nip in the bud.  While at it, clarify in cgroup_subsys.h that no
new subsystem should be added without explicit acks from cgroup
maintainers.

bcache: A block layer cache

2013-03-23T23:11:31+00:00

Does writethrough and writeback caching, handles unclean shutdown, and
has a bunch of other nifty features motivated by real world usage.

cgroup: Wrap subsystem selection macro

2012-09-14T16:57:37+00:00

Before we are able to define all subsystem ids at compile time we need
a more fine grained control what gets defined when we include
cgroup_subsys.h. For example we define the enums for the subsystems or
to declare for struct cgroup_subsys (builtin subsystem) by including
cgroup_subsys.h and defining SUBSYS accordingly.

Currently, the decision if a subsys is used is defined inside the
header by testing if CONFIG_*=y is true. By moving this test outside
of cgroup_subsys.h we are able to control it on the include level.

This is done by introducing IS_SUBSYS_ENABLED which then is defined
according the task, e.g. is CONFIG_*=y or CONFIG_*=m.

mm/hugetlb: add new HugeTLB cgroup

2012-08-01T01:42:40+00:00

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

The charge/uncharge calls will be added to HugeTLB code in later patch.
Support for cgroup removal will be added in later patches.

net: add network priority cgroup infrastructure (v4)

2011-11-22T20:22:23+00:00

This patch adds in the infrastructure code to create the network priority
cgroup.  The cgroup, in addition to the standard processes file creates two
control files:

1) prioidx - This is a read-only file that exports the index of this cgroup.
This is a value that is both arbitrary and unique to a cgroup in this subsystem,
and is used to index the per-device priority map

2) priomap - This is a writeable file.  On read it reports a table of 2-tuples
 where name is the name of a network interface and priority is
indicates the priority assigned to frames egresessing on the named interface and
originating from a pid in this cgroup

This cgroup allows for skb priority to be set prior to a root qdisc getting
selected. This is benenficial for DCB enabled systems, in that it allows for any
application to use dcb configured priorities so without application modification

cgroup: remove the ns_cgroup

2011-05-27T00:12:34+00:00

The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:

  * cgroup creation is out-of-control
  * cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
  * it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
    namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
  * we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup

  The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
  where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
  The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
  the 'tasks' file.

This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html

The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.

This is a userspace-visible change.  Commit 45531757b45c ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal.  Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.

perf: Add cgroup support

2011-02-16T12:30:48+00:00

This kernel patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on
container groups (cgroups). This is for use in per-cpu mode only.

The cgroup to monitor is passed as a file descriptor in the pid
argument to the syscall. The file descriptor must be opened to
the cgroup name in the cgroup filesystem. For instance, if the
cgroup name is foo and cgroupfs is mounted in /cgroup, then the
file descriptor is opened to /cgroup/foo. Cgroup mode is
activated by passing PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP in the flags argument
to the syscall.

For instance to measure in cgroup foo on CPU1 assuming
cgroupfs is mounted under /cgroup:

struct perf_event_attr attr;
int cgroup_fd, fd;

cgroup_fd = open("/cgroup/foo", O_RDONLY);
fd = perf_event_open(&attr, cgroup_fd, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP);
close(cgroup_fd);
