Subject: [PATCH 6.18.y 1/2] cgroup: Expose some cgroup helpers
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 10:03:09 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110150235.2004727-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107050942-failed-6.18-15da1e4978dd@kernel.org>
From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
[ Upstream commit 5b30afc20b3fea29b9beb83c6415c4ff06f774aa ]
Expose the following through cgroup.h:
- cgroup_on_dfl()
- cgroup_is_dead()
- cgroup_for_each_live_child()
- cgroup_for_each_live_descendant_pre()
- cgroup_for_each_live_descendant_post()
Until now, these didn't need to be exposed because controllers only cared
about the css hierarchy. The planned sched_ext hierarchical scheduler
support will be based on the default cgroup hierarchy, which is in line
with the existing BPF cgroup support, and thus needs these exposed.
