commit a05d4fd9176003e0c1f9c3d083f4dac19fd346ab upstream.

The net_cls controller controls the classid field of each socket which
is associated with the cgroup.  Because the classid is per-socket
attribute, when a task migrates to another cgroup or the configured
classid of the cgroup changes, the controller needs to walk all
sockets and update the classid value, which was implemented by
3b13758f51de ("cgroups: Allow dynamically changing net_classid").

While the approach is not scalable, migrating tasks which have a lot
of fds attached to them is rare and the cost is born by the ones
initiating the operations.  However, for simplicity, both the
migration and classid config change paths call update_classid() which
scans all fds of all tasks in the target css.  This is an overkill for
the migration path which only needs to cover a much smaller subset of
tasks which are actually getting migrated in.

On cgroup v1, this can lead to unexpected scalability issues when one
tries to migrate a task or process into a net_cls cgroup which already
contains a lot of fds.  Even if the migration traget doesn't have many
to get scanned, update_classid() ends up scanning all fds in the
target cgroup which can be extremely numerous.

Unfortunately, on cgroup v2 which doesn't use net_cls, the problem is
even worse.  Before bfc2cf6f61fc ("cgroup: call subsys-&gt;*attach() only
for subsystems which are actually affected by migration"), cgroup core
would call the -&gt;css_attach callback even for controllers which don't
see actual migration to a different css.

As net_cls is always disabled but still mounted on cgroup v2, whenever
a process is migrated on the cgroup v2 hierarchy, net_cls sees
identity migration from root to root and cgroup core used to call
-&gt;css_attach callback for those.  The net_cls -&gt;css_attach ends up
calling update_classid() on the root net_cls css to which all
processes on the system belong to as the controller isn't used.  This
makes any cgroup v2 migration O(total_number_of_fds_on_the_system)
which is horrible and easily leads to noticeable stalls triggering RCU
stall warnings and so on.

The worst symptom is already fixed in upstream by bfc2cf6f61fc
("cgroup: call subsys-&gt;*attach() only for subsystems which are
actually affected by migration"); however, backporting that commit is
too invasive and we want to avoid other cases too.

This patch updates net_cls's cgrp_attach() to iterate fds of only the
processes which are actually getting migrated.  This removes the
surprising migration cost which is dependent on the total number of
fds in the target cgroup.  As this leaves write_classid() the only
user of update_classid(), open-code the helper into write_classid().

<title>sock, cgroup: add sock-&gt;sk_cgroup</title>

<content type='text'>
In cgroup v1, dealing with cgroup membership was difficult because the
number of membership associations was unbound.  As a result, cgroup v1
grew several controllers whose primary purpose is either tagging
membership or pull in configuration knobs from other subsystems so
that cgroup membership test can be avoided.

net_cls and net_prio controllers are examples of the latter.  They
allow configuring network-specific attributes from cgroup side so that
network subsystem can avoid testing cgroup membership; unfortunately,
these are not only cumbersome but also problematic.

Both net_cls and net_prio aren't properly hierarchical.  Both inherit
configuration from the parent on creation but there's no interaction
afterwards.  An ancestor doesn't restrict the behavior in its subtree
in anyway and configuration changes aren't propagated downwards.
Especially when combined with cgroup delegation, this is problematic
because delegatees can mess up whatever network configuration
implemented at the system level.  net_prio would allow the delegatees
to set whatever priority value regardless of CAP_NET_ADMIN and net_cls
the same for classid.

While it is possible to solve these issues from controller side by
implementing hierarchical allowable ranges in both controllers, it
would involve quite a bit of complexity in the controllers and further
obfuscate network configuration as it becomes even more difficult to
tell what's actually being configured looking from the network side.
While not much can be done for v1 at this point, as membership
handling is sane on cgroup v2, it'd be better to make cgroup matching
behave like other network matches and classifiers than introducing
further complications.

In preparation, this patch updates sock-&gt;sk_cgrp_data handling so that
it points to the v2 cgroup that sock was created in until either
net_prio or net_cls is used.  Once either of the two is used,
sock-&gt;sk_cgrp_data reverts to its previous role of carrying prioidx
and classid.  This is to avoid adding yet another cgroup related field
to struct sock.

As the mode switching can happen at most once per boot, the switching
mechanism is aimed at lowering hot path overhead.  It may leak a
finite, likely small, number of cgroup refs and report spurious
prioidx or classid on switching; however, dynamic updates of prioidx
and classid have always been racy and lossy - socks between creation
and fd installation are never updated, config changes don't update
existing sockets at all, and prioidx may index with dead and recycled
cgroup IDs.  Non-critical inaccuracies from small race windows won't
make any noticeable difference.

This patch doesn't make use of the pointer yet.  The following patch
will implement netfilter match for cgroup2 membership.

v2: Use sock_cgroup_data to avoid inflating struct sock w/ another
    cgroup specific field.

v3: Add comments explaining why sock_data_prioidx() and
    sock_data_classid() use different fallback values.

Introduce sock-&gt;sk_cgrp_data which is a struct sock_cgroup_data.
-&gt;sk_cgroup_prioidx and -&gt;sk_classid are moved into it.  The struct
and its accessors are defined in cgroup-defs.h.  This is to prepare
for overloading the fields with a cgroup pointer.

This patch mostly performs equivalent conversions but the followings
are noteworthy.

* Equality test before updating classid is removed from
  sock_update_classid().  This shouldn't make any noticeable
  difference and a similar test will be implemented on the helper side
  later.

* sock_update_netprioidx() now takes struct sock_cgroup_data and can
  be moved to netprio_cgroup.h without causing include dependency
  loop.  Moved.

* The dummy version of sock_update_netprioidx() converted to a static
  inline function while at it.

The following commit which went into mainline through networking tree

  3b13758f51de ("cgroups: Allow dynamically changing net_classid")

conflicts in net/core/netclassid_cgroup.c with the following pending
fix in cgroup/for-4.4-fixes.

  1f7dd3e5a6e4 ("cgroup: fix handling of multi-destination migration from subtree_control enabling")

The former separates out update_classid() from cgrp_attach() and
updates it to walk all fds of all tasks in the target css so that it
can be used from both migration and config change paths.  The latter
drops @css from cgrp_attach().

Resolve the conflict by making cgrp_attach() call update_classid()
with the css from the first task.  We can revive @tset walking in
cgrp_attach() but given that net_cls is v1 only where there always is
only one target css during migration, this is fine.

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, -&gt;can_attach, -&gt;cancel_attach() and -&gt;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.

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.

<title>cgroups: Allow dynamically changing net_classid</title>

<id>3b13758f51de30618d9c7f3fc174d8d1a3cb13cd</id>
<content type='text'>
The classid of a process is changed either when a process is moved to
or from a cgroup or when the net_cls.classid file is updated.
Previously net_cls only supported propogating these changes to the
cgroup's related sockets when a process was added or removed from the
cgroup. This means it was neccessary to remove and re-add all processes
to a cgroup in order to update its classid. This change introduces
support for doing this dynamically - i.e. when the value is changed in
the net_cls_classid file, this will also trigger an update to the
classid associated with all sockets controlled by the cgroup.
This mimics the behaviour of other cgroup subsystems.
net_prio circumvents this issue by storing an index into a table with
each socket (and so any updates to the table, don't require updating
the value associated with the socket). net_cls, however, passes the
socket the classid directly, and so this additional step is needed.

<title>cgroup: rename cgroup_subsys-&gt;base_cftypes to -&gt;legacy_cftypes</title>

<id>5577964e64692e17cc498854b7e0833e6532cd64</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, cgroup_subsys-&gt;base_cftypes is 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 arrays 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 renames cgroup_subsys-&gt;base_cftypes to
cgroup_subsys-&gt;legacy_cftypes.  This patch is pure rename.
