2016-11-10cgroup: avoid false positive gcc-6 warningArnd Bergmann
commit cfe02a8a973e7e5f66926b8ae38dfce404b19e29 upstream. When all subsystems are disabled, gcc notices that cgroup_subsys_enabled_key is a zero-length array and that any access to it must be out of bounds: In file included from ../include/linux/cgroup.h:19:0, from ../kernel/cgroup.c:31: ../kernel/cgroup.c: In function 'cgroup_add_cftypes': ../kernel/cgroup.c:261:53: error: array subscript is above array bounds [-Werror=array-bounds] return static_key_enabled(cgroup_subsys_enabled_key[ssid]); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~ ../include/linux/jump_label.h:271:40: note: in definition of macro 'static_key_enabled' static_key_count((struct static_key *)x) > 0; \ ^ We should never call the function in this particular case, so this is not a bug. In order to silence the warning, this adds an explicit check for the CGROUP_SUBSYS_COUNT==0 case.

2016-08-10cgroup: set css->id to -1 during initTejun Heo
commit 8fa3b8d689a54d6d04ff7803c724fb7aca6ce98e upstream. If percpu_ref initialization fails during css_create(), the free path can end up trying to free css->id of zero. As ID 0 is unused, it doesn't cause a critical breakage but it does trigger a warning message. Fix it by setting css->id to -1 from init_and_link_css().

2016-05-04cgroup: make sure a parent css isn't freed before its childrenTejun Heo
commit 8bb5ef79bc0f4016ecf79e8dce6096a3c63603e4 upstream. 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. The previous patch updated ordering for css_offline() which fixes the cpu controller issue. While there currently isn't a known bug caused by misordering of css_free() invocations, let's fix it too for consistency. css_free() ordering can be trivially fixed by moving putting of the parent css below css_free() invocation.

2016-05-04cgroup, cpuset: replace cpuset_post_attach_flush() with ↵Tejun Heo
cgroup_subsys->post_attach callback commit 5cf1cacb49aee39c3e02ae87068fc3c6430659b0 upstream. Since e93ad19d0564 ("cpuset: make mm migration asynchronous"), cpuset kicks off asynchronous NUMA node migration if necessary during task migration and flushes it from cpuset_post_attach_flush() which is called at the end of __cgroup_procs_write(). This is to avoid performing migration with cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem write-locked which can lead to deadlock through dependency on kworker creation. memcg has a similar issue with charge moving, so let's convert it to an official callback rather than the current one-off cpuset specific function. This patch adds cgroup_subsys->post_attach callback and makes cpuset register cpuset_post_attach_flush() as its ->post_attach. The conversion is mostly one-to-one except that the new callback is called under cgroup_mutex. This is to guarantee that no other migration operations are started before ->post_attach callbacks are finished. cgroup_mutex is one of the outermost mutex in the system and has never been and shouldn't be a problem. We can add specialized synchronization around __cgroup_procs_write() but I don't think there's any noticeable benefit.

2016-04-12cgroup: ignore css_sets associated with dead cgroups during migrationTejun Heo
commit 2b021cbf3cb6208f0d40fd2f1869f237934340ed upstream. Before 2e91fa7f6d45 ("cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups"), all dead tasks were associated with init_css_set. If a zombie task is requested for migration, while migration prep operations would still be performed on init_css_set, the actual migration would ignore zombie tasks. As init_css_set is always valid, this worked fine. However, after 2e91fa7f6d45, zombie tasks stay with the css_set it was associated with at the time of death. Let's say a task T associated with cgroup A on hierarchy H-1 and cgroup B on hiearchy H-2. After T becomes a zombie, it would still remain associated with A and B. If A only contains zombie tasks, it can be removed. On removal, A gets marked offline but stays pinned until all zombies are drained. At this point, if migration is initiated on T to a cgroup C on hierarchy H-2, migration path would try to prepare T's css_set for migration and trigger the following.

2016-03-03cgroup: make sure a parent css isn't offlined before its childrenTejun Heo
commit aa226ff4a1ce79f229c6b7a4c0a14e17fececd01 upstream. 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.

2016-03-03cpuset: make mm migration asynchronousTejun Heo
commit e93ad19d05648397ef3bcb838d26aec06c245dc0 upstream. If "cpuset.memory_migrate" is set, when a process is moved from one cpuset to another with a different memory node mask, pages in used by the process are migrated to the new set of nodes. This was performed synchronously in the ->attach() callback, which is synchronized against process management. Recently, the synchronization was changed from per-process rwsem to global percpu rwsem for simplicity and optimization. Combined with the synchronous mm migration, this led to deadlocks because mm migration could schedule a work item which may in turn try to create a new worker blocking on the process management lock held from cgroup process migration path. This heavy an operation shouldn't be performed synchronously from that deep inside cgroup migration in the first place. This patch punts the actual migration to an ordered workqueue and updates cgroup process migration and cpuset config update paths to flush the workqueue after all locks are released. This way, the operations still seem synchronous to userland without entangling mm migration with process management synchronization. CPU hotplug can also invoke mm migration but there's no reason for it to wait for mm migrations and thus doesn't synchronize against their completions.

2015-12-03cgroup: fix handling of multi-destination migration from subtree_control ↵Tejun Heo
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.

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.

2015-11-30cgroup: make css_set pin its css's to avoid use-afer-freeTejun Heo
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. general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP task: ffffffff81bf2500 ti: ffffffff81be4000 task.ti: ffffffff81be4000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810fa205>] [<ffffffff810fa205>] pids_cancel.constprop.4+0x5/0x40 ...

2015-11-16cgroup: fix cftype->file_offset handlingTejun Heo
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.

2015-11-06mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to ↵Mel Gorman
sleep and avoiding waking kswapd __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve". Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic reserves. This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic, cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use __GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake kswapd for background reclaim. This patch then converts a number of sites o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag. o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress. o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to flag manipulations. o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons. In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH. The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

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. This patch adds cgroup_subsys->free() method and update pids controller to use it instead of ->exit() for uncharging. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Aleksa Sarai <cyphar@cyphar.com>
2015-10-15cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroupsTejun Heo
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. v2: Build brekage due to missing dummy cgroup_free() when !CONFIG_CGROUP fixed.

2015-10-15cgroup: make css_set_rwsem a spinlock and rename it to css_set_lockTejun Heo
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.

2015-10-15cgroup: don't hold css_set_rwsem across css task iterationTejun Heo
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. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

* Rename css_advance_task_iter() to css_task_iter_advance_css_set() and make it clear it->task_pos too at the end of the iteration. * Factor out css_task_iter_advance() from css_task_iter_next(). The new function whines if called on a terminated iterator. Except for the termination check, this is pure reorganization and doesn't introduce any behavior changes. This will help the planned locking update for css_task_iter. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: factor out css_set_move_task()Tejun Heo
A task is associated and disassociated with its css_set in three places - during migration, after a new task is created and when a task exits. The first is handled by cgroup_task_migrate() and the latter two are open-coded. These are similar operations and spreading them over multiple places makes it harder to follow and update. This patch collects all task css_set [dis]association operations into css_set_move_task(). While css_set_move_task() may check whether populated state needs to be updated when not strictly necessary, the behavior is essentially equivalent before and after this patch.

For tasks, as migration path is already using list_splice_tail_init(), only cgroup_enable_task_cg_lists() and cgroup_post_fork() need updating.

2015-10-15cgroup: make cgroup_destroy_locked() test cgroup_is_populated()Tejun Heo
cgroup_destroy_locked() currently tests whether any css_sets are associated to reject removal if the cgroup contains tasks. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks. To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even when it doesn't have any live tasks. This patch updates cgroup_destroy_locked() so that it tests cgroup_is_populated(), which counts the number of populated css_sets, instead of whether cgrp->cset_links is empty to determine whether the cgroup is populated or not. This ensures that rmdirs won't be incorrectly rejected for cgroups which only contain zombie tasks. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2015-10-15cgroup: make css_sets pin the associated cgroupsTejun Heo

To ensure that a cgroup doesn't go away while css_sets are still associated with it, make each associated css_set hold a reference on the cgroup if non-root. v2: Root cgroups are special and shouldn't be ref'd by css_sets.

2015-10-15cgroup: replace cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated()Tejun Heo
Currently, cgroup_has_tasks() tests whether the target cgroup has any css_set linked to it. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks. To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even when it doesn't have any live tasks. This patch replaces cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated() which tests cgroup->nr_populated instead which locally counts the number of populated css_sets. Unlike cgroup_has_tasks(), cgroup_is_populated() is recursive - if any of the descendants is populated, the cgroup is populated too. While this changes the meaning of the test, all the existing users are okay with the change. While at it, replace the open-coded ->populated_cnt test in cgroup_events_show() with cgroup_is_populated().

2015-10-15cgroup: make cgroup->nr_populated count the number of populated css_setsTejun Heo
Currently, cgroup->nr_populated counts whether the cgroup has any css_sets linked to it and the number of children which has non-zero ->nr_populated.

2015-09-22cgroup: make cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomicallyTejun Heo
cgroup_update_dfl_csses() is responsible for migrating processes when controllers are enabled or disabled on the default hierarchy. As the css association changes for all the processes in the affected cgroups, this involves migrating multiple processes. Up until now, it was implemented by migrating process-by-process until the source css_sets are empty; however, this means that if a process fails to migrate after some succeed before it, the recovery is very tricky. This was considered okay as subsystems weren't allowed to reject process migration on the default hierarchy; unfortunately, enforcing this policy turned out to be problematic for certain types of resources - realtime slices for now. As such, the default hierarchy is gonna allow restricted failures during migration and to support that this patch makes cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomically rather than one-by-one. The preceding patches made subsystems ready for multi-process migration and factored out taskset operations making this almost trivial. All tasks of the target processes are put in the same taskset and the migration operations are performed once which either fails or succeeds for all.

2015-09-18cgroup: generalize obtaining the handles of and notifying cgroup filesTejun Heo
cgroup core handles creations and removals of cgroup interface files as described by cftypes. There are cases where the handle for a given file instance is necessary, for example, to generate a file modified event. Currently, this is handled by explicitly matching the callback method pointer and storing the file handle manually in cgroup_add_file(). While this simple approach works for cgroup core files, it can't for controller interface files. This patch generalizes cgroup interface file handle handling. struct cgroup_file is defined and each cftype can optionally tell cgroup core to store the file handle by setting ->file_offset. A file handle remains accessible as long as the containing css is accessible. Both "cgroup.procs" and "cgroup.events" are converted to use the new generic mechanism instead of hooking directly into cgroup_add_file(). Also, cgroup_file_notify() which takes a struct cgroup_file and generates a file modified event on it is added and replaces explicit kernfs_notify() invocations. This generalizes cgroup file handle handling and allows controllers to generate file modified notifications.

2015-09-18cgroup: make cgroup_addrm_files() clean up after itself on failuresTejun Heo
After a file creation failure, cgroup_addrm_files() it didn't remove the files which had already been created. When cgroup_populate_dir() is the caller, this is fine as the caller performs cleanup; however, for other callers, this may leave unactivated dangling files behind. As kernfs directory removals are recursive, this doesn't lead to permanent memory leak but it can, for example, fail future attempts to create those files again. There's no point in keeping around this sort of subtlety and it gets in the way of planned updates to file handling. This patch makes cgroup_addrm_files() clean up after itself on failures.

Note: This commit was originally committed as d59cfc09c32a but got reverted by 0c986253b939 due to the performance regression from the percpu_rwsem write down/up operations added to cgroup task migration path. percpu_rwsem changes which alleviate the performance issue are pending for v4.4-rc1 merge window. Re-apply. The cgroup side of threadgroup locking uses signal_struct->group_rwsem to synchronize against threadgroup changes. This per-process rwsem adds small overhead to thread creation, exit and exec paths, forces cgroup code paths to do lock-verify-unlock-retry dance in a couple places and makes it impossible to atomically perform operations across multiple processes. This patch replaces signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsem cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem which is cheaper on the reader side and contained in cgroups proper. This patch converts one-to-one. This does make writer side heavier and lower the granularity; however, cgroup process migration is a fairly cold path, we do want to optimize thread operations over it and cgroup migration operations don't take enough time for the lower granularity to matter.

2015-09-08cgroup: fix seq_show_option merge with legacy_nameKees Cook
When seq_show_option (commit a068acf2ee77: "fs: create and use seq_show_option for escaping") was merged, it did not correctly collide with cgroup's addition of legacy_name (commit 3e1d2eed39d8: "cgroup: introduce cgroup_subsys->legacy_name") changes. This fixes the reported name.

2015-09-04fs: create and use seq_show_option for escapingKees Cook
Many file systems that implement the show_options hook fail to correctly escape their output which could lead to unescaped characters (e.g. new lines) leaking into /proc/mounts and /proc/[pid]/mountinfo files. This could lead to confusion, spoofed entries (resulting in things like systemd issuing false d-bus "mount" notifications), and who knows what else. This looks like it would only be the root user stepping on themselves, but it's possible weird things could happen in containers or in other situations with delegated mount privileges. Here's an example using overlay with setuid fusermount trusting the contents of /proc/mounts (via the /etc/mtab symlink). Imagine the use of "sudo" is something more sneaky: $ BASE="ovl" $ MNT="$BASE/mnt" $ LOW="$BASE/lower" $ UP="$BASE/upper" $ WORK="$BASE/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000" $ mkdir -p "$LOW" "$UP" "$WORK" $ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=$LOW,upperdir=$UP,workdir=$WORK" none /mnt $ cat /proc/mounts none /root/ovl/mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=ovl/lower,upperdir=ovl/upper,workdir=ovl/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000 0 0 $ fusermount -u /proc $ cat /proc/mounts cat: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory This fixes the problem by adding new seq_show_option and seq_show_option_n helpers, and updating the vulnerable show_option handlers to use them as needed. Some, like SELinux, need to be open coded due to unusual existing escape mechanisms.

2015-09-02Merge branch 'for-4.3' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: - a new PIDs controller is added. It turns out that PIDs are actually an independent resource from kmem due to the limited PID space. - more core preparations for the v2 interface. Once cpu side interface is settled, it should be ready for lifting the devel mask. for-4.3-unified-base was temporarily branched so that other trees (block) can pull cgroup core changes that blkcg changes depend on. - a non-critical idr_preload usage bug fix. * 'for-4.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup: pids: fix invalid get/put usage cgroup: introduce cgroup_subsys->legacy_name cgroup: don't print subsystems for the default hierarchy cgroup: make cftype->private a unsigned long cgroup: export cgrp_dfl_root cgroup: define controller file conventions cgroup: fix idr_preload usage cgroup: add documentation for the PIDs controller cgroup: implement the PIDs subsystem cgroup: allow a cgroup subsystem to reject a fork
