[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 12189 bytes --]

This patch is the first step in making the refrigerator() available 
to all architectures, even for those without power management. 

The purpose of such a change is to be able to use the refrigerator() 
in a new control group subsystem which will implement a control group
freezer.

[-- Attachment #1: cgroup-freezer/cgroup-freezer-make-refrigerator-available-to-all-archs.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 10418 bytes --]

Now that the TIF_FREEZE flag is available in all architectures,
extract the refrigerator() and freeze_task() from kernel/power/process.c
and make it available to all.

The refrigerator() can now be used in a control group subsystem 
implementing a control group freezer.

[-- Attachment #1: cgroup-freezer/cgroup-freezer-implement-freezer-subsystem.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 10610 bytes --]

This patch implements a new freezer subsystem for Paul Menage's 
control groups framework. It provides a way to stop and resume 
execution of all tasks in a cgroup by writing in the cgroup 
filesystem.

This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for 
user space tasks in a simple scenario. This will require more work 
to get the freezing right (cf. try_to_freeze_tasks()) for ptraced
tasks.

Function headers are somehow non-traditional.

+
+       if (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN))
+               return ERR_PTR(-EPERM);
+

One space too many after "return" :-).

Hmm, returning pointer inside struct freezer is rather ugly, right?
Could you just pass struct freezer around?

[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1197 bytes --]

When a system is resumed after a suspend, it will also unfreeze 
frozen cgroups. 

This patchs modifies the resume sequence to skip the tasks which 
are part of a frozen control group.

	This seems reasonable to me. A quick look at Cedric's patches suggests
there's no need for such cgroup subsystems to be tied together -- the
signalling is all done internally to the freeze_task(), refrigerator(),
and thaw_process() functions from what I recall.

3 files seems like overkill. I think making them human-readable is good
and can be done with two files: "state" (read-only) and
"state-next" (read/write). Transitions between RUNNING and FROZEN are
obvious when state-next != state. I think the advantages are it's pretty
human-readable, you don't need separate strings and files for the
transitions, it's clear what's about to happen (IMHO), and it only
requires 2 files. Some examples:

To initiate freezing:

# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state
RUNNING
# echo "FROZEN" > /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next
# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state
RUNNING
# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next
FROZEN
# sleep N
# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state
FROZEN
# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next
FROZEN

So to cancel freezing you might see something like:

# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state
RUNNING
# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next
FROZEN
# echo "RUNNING" > /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next
# cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next
RUNNING

If you wanted to know if a group was transitioning:

# diff /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next

Or:
# current=`cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state`
# next=`cat /containers/freezer/0/freezer.state-next`
# [ "$current" != "$next" ] && echo "Transitioning"
# [ "$current" == "RUNNING" -a "$next" == "FROZEN" ] && echo "Freezing"
# [ "$current" == "FROZEN" -a "$next" == "RUNNING" ] && echo "Thawing"
# [ "$current" == "RUNNING" -a "$next" == "RUNNING" ] && echo "No-op"
# [ "$current" == "FROZEN" -a "$next" == "FROZEN" ] && echo "No-op"

etc.

First, I totally agree with Serge's comment (oh well, it's about my
own suggestion, so I must) - for checkpoint/restart we'll need more
states if we are to use the same subsystem.

Second, my gut feeling is that a single, atomic operation to get the
status is preferred over multiple (non-atomic) operations. In other
words, I suggest a single state file instead of two. You can encode
every possible transition in a single state. It's not that the kernel
doesn't know what's going on inside, so it can just as well report it
directly. I don't see the benefit of using two files.

	I don't have an upper limit on how many more states we will need and I
think that number impacts the interface significantly. Can you give us
an estimate?

	If the transitions are to be human-readable and there are more than a
small number of states it may not be desirable to encode transitions as
states. Paul's reason for suggesting the additional file(s), as best I
could tell, was to keep the interface human-readable.

In Zap there are (using the current terminology):
RUNNING - running
FREEZING - transition to FROZEN
FROZEN - frozen
THAWING - transition to RUNNING
CKPTING - being checkpointed (needs special semantics* for some ops)
RSTRTING - being restarted (may need special semantics* for some ops)
ABORTING - transition to DEAD (mainly when aborting a failed restart)
DEAD - dead (but not fully cleaned up yet)

There is also "SPECIAL" in which some operations are not allowed;
this simplifies dealing with a bunch of races related to checkpoint/
restart, but I'm not sure it's a must. If anything, it only stays
for very short times (like an uninterruptible sleep) saying "don't
mess with this container now, it's busy".

I have very good justifications for almost all the states, a good
reasoning for DEAD, and a case for SPECIAL (although there may be
a way to do without it).

Despite the "many" states, there are very few transitions: CKPTING
can only be reached from- and changed to- FROZEN. A similar rule holds
for RSTRTING. ABORTING is reached from RSTRTING, and leads to DEAD.
The only one I don't cover is reaching DEAD from any other state
(except SPECIAL) but I never saw a reason to explicitly encode that.
Something like this (without SPECIAL):

          ->  FREEZING  ->          <-> CKPTING
RUNNING                    FROZEN
          <-  THAWING   <-          <-> RSTRTING -> ABORTING -> DEAD

Out of curiosity - why does the number of states impact the interface
so much ?

The scheme above has very few transitions. Whatever be the final scheme,
I would prefer not to have many possible transition (the full matrix).
It probably isn't necessary either.

The main idea behind limiting the transitions above, is that checkpoint
requires to first freeze the container to be able to capture a consistent
view of the state of its processes; that means, for example, that we also
would like to prevent signals from being delivered to tasks in a frozen
state (if you do want to signal - thaw it first).

There is also the issue of a pre-checkpoint (a.k.a live migration) where
significant state (mainly memory) of the container is recorded while the
container is still running, and when it's finally frozen little state
remains to be saved, reducing the application downtime. I didn't see a
need for a special state for this case; instead Zap uses a status flag
that belongs to the container.

	Only that, if you're trying to keep the interface human readable, then
having too many names for things (states and transitions) can make the
interface less than intuitive. Doesn't look like that's an issue for the
above state machine though so I think you're right -- a single file with
transitions encoded as states seems best.

Thanks for the explanation of the states.

Okay, freezer probably does what you want, but be warned that Linus is
not exactly in love with freezer. You probably can get away with using
it for user processes, but maybe you should drop him the line saying
you want to expand freezer usage and see what happens.

[-- Attachment #1: cgroup-freezer/cgroup-freezer-add-the-tif-freeze-flag-to-all-archs.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 12189 bytes --]

This patch is the first step in making the refrigerator() available 
to all architectures, even for those without power management. 

The purpose of such a change is to be able to use the refrigerator() 
in a new control group subsystem which will implement a control group
freezer.
