[PATCH 1/9] cgroup: minor updates around cgroup_clear_directory()

[Tejun Heo]

* Rename it to cgroup_clear_dir() and make it take the pointer to the
  target cgroup instead of the the dentry.  This makes the function
  consistent with its counterpart - cgroup_populate_dir().

* Move cgroup_clear_directory() invocation from cgroup_d_remove_dir()
  to cgroup_remount() so that the function doesn't have to determine
  the cgroup pointer back from the dentry.  cgroup_d_remove_dir() now
  only deals with vfs, which is slightly cleaner.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional differences.

[PATCH 2/9] cgroup: fix error path of cgroup_addrm_files()

[Tejun Heo]

cgroup_addrm_files() mishandled error return value from
cgroup_add_file() and returns error iff the last file fails to create.
As we're in the process of cleaning up file add/rm error handling and
will reliably propagate file creation failures, there's no point in
keeping adding files after a failure.

Replace the broken error collection logic with immediate error return.
While at it, add lockdep assertions and function comment.

[PATCH 3/9] cgroup: fix cgroup_add_cftypes() error handling

[Tejun Heo]

cgroup_add_cftypes() uses cgroup_cfts_commit() to actually create the
files; however, both functions ignore actual file creation errors and
just assume success.  This can lead to, for example, blkio hierarchy
with some of the cgroups with only subset of interface files populated
after cfq-iosched is loaded under heavy memory pressure, which is
nasty.

This patch updates cgroup_cfts_commit() and cgroup_add_cftypes() to
guarantee that all files are created on success and no file is created
on failure.

[PATCH 4/9] cgroup: separate out cgroup_base_files[] handling out of cgroup_populate/clear_dir()

[Tejun Heo]

cgroup_populate/clear_dir() currently take @base_files and adds and
removes, respectively, cgroup_base_files[] to the directory.  File
additions and removals are being reorganized for proper error handling
and more dynamic handling for the unified hierarchy, and mixing base
and subsys file handling into the same functions gets a bit confusing.

This patch moves base file handling out of cgroup_populate/clear_dir()
into their users - cgroup_mount(), cgroup_create() and
cgroup_destroy_locked().

Note that this changes the behavior of base file removal.  If
@base_files is %true, cgroup_clear_dir() used to delete files
regardless of cftype until there's no files left.  Now, only files
with matching cfts are removed.  As files can only be created by the
base or registered cftypes, this shouldn't result in any behavior
difference.

[PATCH 5/9] cgroup: update error handling in cgroup_populate_dir()

[Tejun Heo]

cgroup_populate_dir() didn't use to check whether the actual file
creations were successful and could return success with only subset of
the requested files created, which is nasty.

This patch udpates cgroup_populate_dir() so that it either succeeds
with all files or fails with no file.

[PATCH 6/9] cgroup: make rebind_subsystems() handle file additions and removals with proper error handling

[Tejun Heo]

Currently, creating and removing cgroup files in the root directory
are handled separately from the actual subsystem binding and unbinding
which happens in rebind_subsystems().  Also, rebind_subsystems() users
aren't handling file creation errors properly.  Let's integrate
top_cgroup file handling into rebind_subsystems() so that it's simpler
to use and everyone handles file creation errors correctly.

* On a successful return, rebind_subsystems() is guaranteed to have
  created all files of the new subsystems and deleted the ones
  belonging to the removed subsystems.  After a failure, no file is
  created or removed.

* cgroup_remount() no longer needs to make explicit populate/clear
  calls as it's all handled by rebind_subsystems(), and it gets proper
  error handling automatically.

* cgroup_mount() has been updated such that the root dentry and cgroup
  are linked before rebind_subsystems().  Also, the init_cred dancing
  and base file handling are moved right above rebind_subsystems()
  call and proper error handling for the base files is added.

* cgroup_kill_sb() calls rebind_subsystems() to unbind all subsystems
  which now implies removing all subsystem files which requires the
  directory's i_mutex.  Grab it.  This means that files on the root
  cgroup are removed earlier - they used to be deleted from generic
  super_block cleanup from vfs.  This doesn't lead to any functional
  difference and it's cleaner to do the clean up explicitly for all
  files.

Combined with the previous changes, this makes all cgroup file
creation errors handled correctly.

[PATCH 8/9] cgroup: move number_of_cgroups test out of rebind_subsystems() into cgroup_remount()

[Tejun Heo]

rebind_subsystems() currently fails if the hierarchy has any !root
cgroups; however, on the planned unified hierarchy,
rebind_subsystems() will be used while populated.  Move the test to
cgroup_remount(), which is the only place the test is necessary
anyway.

As it's impossible for the other two callers of rebind_subsystems() to
have populated hierarchy, this doesn't make any behavior changes.

[PATCH 9/9] blkcg: make blkcg_policy_register() correctly handle cgroup_add_cftypes() failures

[Tejun Heo]

Hello, Jens.

How should this one be routed?  It can go through either block or
cgroup tree.

Thanks!

------------------------- 8< -------------------------
From: Tejun Heo <tj-DgEjT+Ai2ygdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org>
Subject: blkcg: make blkcg_policy_register() correctly handle cgroup_add_cftypes() failures

blkcg_policy_register() currently triggers WARN when
cgroup_add_cftypes() fails and proceeds, which is a rather crappy way
to handle errors.  It was written that way as cgroup_add_cftypes()
itself didn't handle errors correctly.  Now that cgroup_add_cftypes()
correctly handles errors in itself, let's handle its failure properly.

Remove the WARN_ON() and cancel and fail policy registration on
cgroup_add_cftypes() failure.

[PATCH 5.5/9] cgroup: use for_each_subsys() instead of for_each_root_subsys() in cgroup_populate/clear_dir()

[Tejun Heo]

rebind_subsystems() will be updated to handle file creations and
removals with proper error handling and to do that will need to
perform file operations before actually adding the subsystem to the
hierarchy.

To enable such usage, update cgroup_populate/clear_dir() to use
for_each_subsys() instead of for_each_root_subsys() so that they
operate on all subsystems specified by @subsys_mask whether that
subsystem is currently bound to the hierarchy or not.

Because subsystem binding / unbinding is being made dynamic and
subsystem linking would happen only after file popluation has been
confirmed to succeed, so it should be possible to perform file
creations / deletions whether the subsystem is currently bound or not.
Besides, I find it weird for file handling functions to care about
subsystem binding status directly.

I somehow forgot to write about the above in the patch description.
Will update.

[PATCH v2 5/9] cgroup: update error handling in cgroup_populate_dir()

cgroup_populate_dir() didn't use to check whether the actual file
creations were successful and could return success with only subset of
the requested files created, which is nasty.

This patch udpates cgroup_populate_dir() so that it either succeeds
with all files or fails with no file.

v2: The original patch also converted for_each_root_subsys() usages to
    for_each_subsys() without explaining why.  That part has been
    moved to a separate patch.

Re: [PATCH v2 6/9] cgroup: make rebind_subsystems() handle file additions and removals with proper error handling

[Tejun Heo]

From 705da98c48f39ebe565439353a5b35a0bab08b23 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Currently, creating and removing cgroup files in the root directory
are handled separately from the actual subsystem binding and unbinding
which happens in rebind_subsystems().  Also, rebind_subsystems() users
aren't handling file creation errors properly.  Let's integrate
top_cgroup file handling into rebind_subsystems() so that it's simpler
to use and everyone handles file creation errors correctly.

* On a successful return, rebind_subsystems() is guaranteed to have
  created all files of the new subsystems and deleted the ones
  belonging to the removed subsystems.  After a failure, no file is
  created or removed.

* cgroup_remount() no longer needs to make explicit populate/clear
  calls as it's all handled by rebind_subsystems(), and it gets proper
  error handling automatically.

* cgroup_mount() has been updated such that the root dentry and cgroup
  are linked before rebind_subsystems().  Also, the init_cred dancing
  and base file handling are moved right above rebind_subsystems()
  call and proper error handling for the base files is added.  While
  at it, add a comment explaining what's going on with the cred thing.

* cgroup_kill_sb() calls rebind_subsystems() to unbind all subsystems
  which now implies removing all subsystem files which requires the
  directory's i_mutex.  Grab it.  This means that files on the root
  cgroup are removed earlier - they used to be deleted from generic
  super_block cleanup from vfs.  This doesn't lead to any functional
  difference and it's cleaner to do the clean up explicitly for all
  files.

Combined with the previous changes, this makes all cgroup file
creation errors handled correctly.

v2: Added comment on init_cred.

[PATCH v3 6/9] cgroup: make rebind_subsystems() handle file additions and removals with proper error handling

* On a successful return, rebind_subsystems() is guaranteed to have
  created all files of the new subsystems and deleted the ones

  created or removed.

* cgroup_remount() no longer needs to make explicit populate/clear

  files.

Combined with the previous changes, this makes all cgroup file
creation errors handled correctly.

v2: Added comment on init_cred.

v3: Li spotted that cgroup_mount() wasn't freeing tmp_links after base
    file addition failure.  Fix it by adding free_tmp_links error
    handling label.

  error handling automatically.

* cgroup_mount() has been updated such that the root dentry and cgroup
  are linked before rebind_subsystems().  Also, the init_cred dancing
  and base file handling are moved right above rebind_subsystems()
  call and proper error handling for the base files is added.  While
  at it, add a comment explaining what's going on with the cred thing.

* cgroup_kill_sb() calls rebind_subsystems() to unbind all subsystems
  which now implies removing all subsystem files which requires the
  directory's i_mutex.  Grab it.  This means that files on the root
  cgroup are removed earlier - they used to be deleted from generic
  super_block cleanup from vfs.  This doesn't lead to any functional
  difference and it's cleaner to do the clean up explicitly for all
  files.

Combined with the previous changes, this makes all cgroup file
creation errors handled correctly.

v2: Added comment on init_cred.

v3: Li spotted that cgroup_mount() wasn't freeing tmp_links after base
    file addition failure.  Fix it by adding free_tmp_links error
    handling label.

v4: v3 introduced build bugs which got noticed by Fengguang's awesome
    kbuild test robot.  Fixed, and shame on me.

I introduced a build bug on v3 and failed to notice it.  I probably
did build testing without the patch applied.  The tree has been
updated.

Thanks.
