Changes since v2: - rebased to 3.10-rc1 - collected some acks - the two memcg bug fixes has been merged into mainline - the cgroup core patch has been merged into mainline Changes since v1: - wrote better changelog and added acked-by and reviewed-by tags - revised some comments as suggested by Michal - added a wmb() in kmem_cgroup_css_offline(), pointed out by Michal - fixed a bug which causes a css_put() never be called Now memcg has its own refcnt, so when a cgroup is destroyed, the memcg can still be alive. This patchset converts memcg to always use css_get/put, so memcg will have the same life cycle as its corresponding cgroup. The historical reason that memcg didn't use css_get in some cases, is that cgroup couldn't be removed if there're still css refs. The situation has changed so that rmdir a cgroup will succeed regardless css refs, but won't be freed until css refs goes down to 0. Since the introduction of kmemcg, the memcg refcnt handling grows even more complicated. This patchset greately simplifies memcg's life cycle management. Also, after those changes, we can convert memcg to use cgroup->id, and then we can kill css_id. The first 2 patches are bug fixes that can go into 3.10, and the rest are for 3.10.
