Fwd: [Suggestion] kernel: cgroup: mount failure in LTP cgroup_regression_test.sh

[Chen Gang <gang.chen.5i5j-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

Hello LTP maintainers:

When I use ltp to test cgroup, I find one failure, the related forward
mail is below.

Related LTP git commit is "75df824 Add cgroup regression tests to LTP:
Those testcases can reproduce bugs we found in cgroups, and is useful
to track future regressions." (lizf-BthXqXjhjHXQFUHtdCDX3A@public.gmane.org and subrata_modak)

Please help check when you have time.

Thanks.

Hello Maintainers:

On Fedora16 with defconfig for next-20131107 kernel, use latest LTP
(Linux Test Project) version, test_5() in cgroup_regression_test.sh
will be fail. The related LTP output:

  <<<test_start>>>

  cmdline="       cgroup_regression_test.sh"

After simplify, the related operation, environments and output are:

  [root@gchenlinux tmp]# df -Th | grep cgroup
  tmpfs                             tmpfs    1001M     0 1001M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
  [root@gchenlinux tmp]# lsof | grep cgroup | grep -v grep

  [root@gchenlinux tmp]# cat /proc/cgroups
  #subsys_name	hierarchy	num_cgroups	enabled
  cpuset	3	4	1
  cpu	4	35	1
  cpuacct	4	35	1
  freezer	5	4	1
  [root@gchenlinux tmp]# mkdir cgroup
  [root@gchenlinux tmp]# mount -t cgroup -o freezer,cpuacct xxx cgroup/
  mount: xxx already mounted or cgroup/ busy

Is it real issue of cgroup? If it is, I will/should continue analyzing.


Welcome any additional suggestions and completions.

Thanks.
