PATCH 1/1 cgroup: drop module support and cgroup_root_mutex

Hello,

There are only two controllers which make use of the module support - net_cls and net_prio, both of which, non-coincidentally, aren't actual resource controllers. It's highly unlikely that the actual resource controlling controllers are gonna be made modular and we aren't gonna add more non-resource controllers either, so the value of module support is strictly restricted to the two existing controllers.

Both controllers are fairly simple while module support in cgroup core adds quite a bit of complexity. Building those two controllers as module only saves about half-page in vmlinux, which really can't justify the additional complexity and (minute but existing) runtime overhead.

This patchset makes net_cls and net_prio config options bool so that they can't be built as modules and drop module support from cgroup core, which in turn facilitates further simplification leading to removal of cgroup_root_mutex by allowing iterating subsystems outside the mutexes.

This patchset contains the following six patches.

0001-cgroup-make-CONFIG_NET_CLS_CGROUP-and-CONFIG_NETPRIO.patch 0002-cgroup-drop-module-support.patch 0003-cgroup-clean-up-cgroup_subsys-names-and-initializati.patch 0004-cgroup-rename-cgroup_subsys-subsys_id-to-id.patch 0005-cgroup-update-locking-in-cgroup_show_options.patch 0006-cgroup-remove-cgroup_root_mutex.patch

0001-0002 drop cgroup module support.

0003-0004 are cleanups.

0005-0006 remove cgroup_root_mutex.

The patchset is also available in the following git branch.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup.git review-simplify

diffstat follows. Thanks.

PATCH 1/6 cgroup: make CONFIG_NET_CLS_CGROUP and CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP bool instead of tristate

net_cls and net_prio are the only cgroups which are allowed to be built as modules. The savings from allowing the two controllers to be built as modules are tiny especially given that cgroup module support itself adds quite a bit of complexity.

The following are the sizes of vmlinux with both built as module and both built as part of the kernel image with cgroup module support removed.

	20293421	2412568		10784768	33490757

The total difference is 2286 bytes. Given that none of other controllers has much chance of being made a module and that we're unlikely to add new modular controllers, the added complexity is simply not justifiable.

As a first step to drop cgroup module support, this patch changes the two config options to bool from tristate and drops module related code from the two controllers.

Unless there's gonna be another rc, I think it's already a bit too late for 3.14 anyway. I'll drop the net_cls part and rebase the changes on top of rc1 later on.

PATCH 2/6 cgroup: drop module support

In reply to Tejun Heo

With module supported dropped from net_cls and net_prio, no controller is using cgroup module support. None of actual resource controllers can be built as a module and we aren't gonna add new controllers which don't control resources. This patch drops module support from cgroup.

* cgroup_[un]load_subsys() and cgroup_subsys->module removed.

* As there's no point in distinguishing IS_BUILTIN() and IS_MODULE(), cgroup_subsys.h now uses IS_ENABLED() directly.

* enum cgroup_subsys_id now exactly matches the list of enabled controllers as ordered in cgroup_subsys.h.

* cgroup_subsys[] is now a contiguously occupied array. Size specification is no longer necessary and dropped.

* for_each_builtin_subsys() is removed and for_each_subsys() is updated to not require any locking.

* module ref handling is removed from rebind_subsystems().

* Module related comments dropped.

PATCH 3/6 cgroup: clean up cgroup_subsys names and initialization

In reply to Tejun Heo

cgroup_subsys is a bit messier than it needs to be.

* The name of a subsys can be different from its internal identifier defined in cgroup_subsys.h. Most subsystems use the matching name but three - cpu, memory and perf_event - use different ones.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are postfixed with _subsys_id and each cgroup_subsys is postfixed with _subsys. cgroup.h is widely included throughout various subsystems, it doesn't and shouldn't have claim on such generic names which don't have any qualifier indicating that they belong to cgroup.

* cgroup_subsys->subsys_id should always equal the matching cgroup_subsys_id enum; however, we require each controller to initialize it and then BUG if they don't match, which is a bit silly.

This patch cleans up cgroup_subsys names and initialization by doing the followings.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are now postfixed with _cgrp_id, and each cgroup_subsys with _cgrp_subsys.

* With the above, renaming subsys identifiers to match the userland visible names doesn't cause any naming conflicts. All non-matching identifiers are renamed to match the official names.

cpu_cgroup -> cpu
mem_cgroup -> memory
perf -> perf_event

* controllers no longer need to initialize ->subsys_id and ->name. They're generated in cgroup core and set automatically during boot.

* Redundant cgroup_subsys declarations removed.

* While updating BUG_ON()s in cgroup_init_early(), convert them to WARN()s. BUGging that early during boot is stupid - the kernel can't print anything, even through serial console and the trap handler doesn't even link stack frame properly for back-tracing.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

Re: [PATCH 3/6] cgroup: clean up cgroup_subsys names and initialization

Quoted 43 lines · Tejun Heo

cgroup_subsys is a bit messier than it needs to be.

* The name of a subsys can be different from its internal identifier defined in cgroup_subsys.h. Most subsystems use the matching name but three - cpu, memory and perf_event - use different ones.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are postfixed with _subsys_id and each cgroup_subsys is postfixed with _subsys. cgroup.h is widely included throughout various subsystems, it doesn't and shouldn't have claim on such generic names which don't have any qualifier indicating that they belong to cgroup.

* cgroup_subsys->subsys_id should always equal the matching cgroup_subsys_id enum; however, we require each controller to initialize it and then BUG if they don't match, which is a bit silly.

This patch cleans up cgroup_subsys names and initialization by doing the followings.

* cgroup_subsys_id enums are now postfixed with _cgrp_id, and each cgroup_subsys with _cgrp_subsys.

* With the above, renaming subsys identifiers to match the userland visible names doesn't cause any naming conflicts. All non-matching identifiers are renamed to match the official names.

cpu_cgroup -> cpu
mem_cgroup -> memory
perf -> perf_event

* controllers no longer need to initialize ->subsys_id and ->name. They're generated in cgroup core and set automatically during boot.

* Redundant cgroup_subsys declarations removed.

* While updating BUG_ON()s in cgroup_init_early(), convert them to WARN()s. BUGging that early during boot is stupid - the kernel can't print anything, even through serial console and the trap handler doesn't even link stack frame properly for back-tracing.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

PATCH 4/6 cgroup: rename cgroup_subsys->subsys_id to ->id

In reply to Tejun Heo

It's no longer referenced outside cgroup core, so renaming is easy. Let's rename it for consistency & brevity.

This patch is pure rename.

PATCH 5/6 cgroup: update locking in cgroup_show_options()

In reply to Tejun Heo

cgroup_show_options() grabs cgroup_root_mutex to protect the options changing while printing; however, holding root_mutex or not doesn't really make much difference for the function. subsys_mask can be atomically tested and most of the options aren't allowed to change anyway once mounted.

The only field which needs synchronization is ->release_agent_path. This patch introduces a dedicated spinlock to synchronize accesses to the field and drops cgroup_root_mutex locking from cgroup_show_options(). The next patch will remove cgroup_root_mutex.

PATCH 6/6 cgroup: remove cgroup_root_mutex

In reply to Tejun Heo

cgroup_root_mutex was added to avoid deadlock involving namespace_sem via cgroup_show_options(). It added a lot of overhead for the small purpose of it and, because it's nested under cgroup_mutex, it has very limited usefulness. The previous patch made cgroup_show_options() not use cgroup_root_mutex, so nobody needs it anymore. Remove it.
