4980f71202 cgroup/pids: Remove unreachable paths of pids_{can,cancel}_fork
According to the implementation of cgroup_css_set_fork(), it will fail
if cset cannot be found and the can_fork/cancel_fork methods will not
be called in this case, which means that the argument 'cset' for these
methods must not be NULL, so remove the unrechable paths in them.

d72a00a848 cgroup/pids: Avoid spurious event notification
Currently when a process in a group forks and fails due to it's
parent's max restriction, all the cgroups from 'pids_forking' to root
will generate event notifications but only the cgroups from
'pids_over_limit' to root will increase the counter of PIDCG_MAX.

Consider this scenario: there are 4 groups A, B, C,and D, the
relationships are as follows, and user is watching on C.pids.events.

root->A->B->C->D

When a process in D forks and fails due to B.max restriction, the
user will get a spurious event notification because when he wakes up
and reads C.pids.events, he will find that the content has not changed.

To address this issue, only the cgroups from 'pids_over_limit' to root
will have their PIDCG_MAX counters increased and event notifications
generated.

3f26a885a0 cgroup/pids: Add pids.events.local
Hierarchical counting of events is not practical for watching when a
particular pids.max is being hit. Therefore introduce .local flavor of
events file (akin to memory controller) that collects only events
relevant to given cgroup.

The file is only added to the default hierarchy.

385a635cac cgroup/pids: Make event counters hierarchical
The pids.events file should honor the hierarchy, so make the events
propagate from their origin up to the root on the unified hierarchy. The
legacy behavior remains non-hierarchical.

73e75e6fc3 cgroup/pids: Separate semantics of pids.events related to pids.max
Currently, when pids.max limit is breached in the hierarchy, the event
is counted and reported in the cgroup where the forking task resides.

This decouples the limit and the notification caused by the limit making
it hard to detect when the actual limit was effected.

Redefine the pids.events:max as: the number of times the limit of the
cgroup was hit.

(Implementation differentiates also "forkfail" event but this is
currently not exposed as it would better fit into pids.stat. It also
differs from pids.events:max only when pids.max is configured on
non-leaf cgroups.)

Since it changes semantics of the original "max" event, introduce this
change only in the v2 API of the controller and add a cgroup2 mount
option to revert to the legacy behavior.

5251c6c436 cgroup: add pids.peak interface for pids controller
pids.peak tracks the high watermark of usage for number of pids. This
helps give a better baseline on which to set pids.max. Polling
pids.current isn't really feasible, since it would potentially miss
short-lived spikes.

This interface is analogous to memory.peak.

ef2c41cf38 clone3: allow spawning processes into cgroups
This adds support for creating a process in a different cgroup than its
parent. Callers can limit and account processes and threads right from
the moment they are spawned:
- A service manager can directly spawn new services into dedicated
  cgroups.
- A process can be directly created in a frozen cgroup and will be
  frozen as well.
- The initial accounting jitter experienced by process supervisors and
  daemons is eliminated with this.
- Threaded applications or even thread implementations can choose to
  create a specific cgroup layout where each thread is spawned
  directly into a dedicated cgroup.

This feature is limited to the unified hierarchy. Callers need to pass
a directory file descriptor for the target cgroup. The caller can
choose to pass an O_PATH file descriptor. All usual migration
restrictions apply, i.e. there can be no processes in inner nodes. In
general, creating a process directly in a target cgroup adheres to all
migration restrictions.

One of the biggest advantages of this feature is that CLONE_INTO_GROUP does
not need to grab the write side of the cgroup cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem.
This global lock makes moving tasks/threads around super expensive. With
clone3() this lock is avoided.

51bee5abea cgroup/pids: turn cgroup_subsys->free() into cgroup_subsys->release() to fix the accounting
The only user of cgroup_subsys->free() callback is pids_cgrp_subsys which
needs pids_free() to uncharge the pid.

However, ->free() is called from __put_task_struct()->cgroup_free() and this
is too late. Even the trivial program which does

	for (;;) {
		int pid = fork();
		assert(pid >= 0);
		if (pid)
			wait(NULL);
		else
			exit(0);
	}

can run out of limits because release_task()->call_rcu(delayed_put_task_struct)
implies an RCU gp after the task/pid goes away and before the final put().

Test-case:

	mkdir -p /tmp/CG
	mount -t cgroup2 none /tmp/CG
	echo '+pids' > /tmp/CG/cgroup.subtree_control

	mkdir /tmp/CG/PID
	echo 2 > /tmp/CG/PID/pids.max

	perl -e 'while ($p = fork) { wait; } $p // die "fork failed: $!\n"' &
	echo $! > /tmp/CG/PID/cgroup.procs

Without this patch the forking process fails soon after migration.

Rename cgroup_subsys->free() to cgroup_subsys->release() and move the callsite
into the new helper, cgroup_release(), called by release_task() which actually
frees the pid(s).

8cfd8147df cgroup: implement cgroup v2 thread support
This patch implements cgroup v2 thread support.  The goal of the
thread mode is supporting hierarchical accounting and control at
thread granularity while staying inside the resource domain model
which allows coordination across different resource controllers and
handling of anonymous resource consumptions.

A cgroup is always created as a domain and can be made threaded by
writing to the "cgroup.type" file.  When a cgroup becomes threaded, it
becomes a member of a threaded subtree which is anchored at the
closest ancestor which isn't threaded.

The threads of the processes which are in a threaded subtree can be
placed anywhere without being restricted by process granularity or
no-internal-process constraint.  Note that the threads aren't allowed
to escape to a different threaded subtree.  To be used inside a
threaded subtree, a controller should explicitly support threaded mode
and be able to handle internal competition in the way which is
appropriate for the resource.

The root of a threaded subtree, the nearest ancestor which isn't
threaded, is called the threaded domain and serves as the resource
domain for the whole subtree.  This is the last cgroup where domain
controllers are operational and where all the domain-level resource
consumptions in the subtree are accounted.  This allows threaded
controllers to operate at thread granularity when requested while
staying inside the scope of system-level resource distribution.

As the root cgroup is exempt from the no-internal-process constraint,
it can serve as both a threaded domain and a parent to normal cgroups,
so, unlike non-root cgroups, the root cgroup can have both domain and
threaded children.

Internally, in a threaded subtree, each css_set has its ->dom_cset
pointing to a matching css_set which belongs to the threaded domain.
This ensures that thread root level cgroup_subsys_state for all
threaded controllers are readily accessible for domain-level
operations.

This patch enables threaded mode for the pids and perf_events
controllers.  Neither has to worry about domain-level resource
consumptions and it's enough to simply set the flag.

For more details on the interface and behavior of the thread mode,
please refer to the section 2-2-2 in Documentation/cgroup-v2.txt added
by this patch.

v5: - Dropped silly no-op ->dom_cgrp init from cgroup_create().
      Spotted by Waiman.
    - Documentation updated as suggested by Waiman.
    - cgroup.type content slightly reformatted.
    - Mark the debug controller threaded.

v4: - Updated to the general idea of marking specific cgroups
      domain/threaded as suggested by PeterZ.

v3: - Dropped "join" and always make mixed children join the parent's
      threaded subtree.

v2: - After discussions with Waiman, support for mixed thread mode is
      added.  This should address the issue that Peter pointed out
      where any nesting should be avoided for thread subtrees while
      coexisting with other domain cgroups.
    - Enabling / disabling thread mode now piggy backs on the existing
      control mask update mechanism.
    - Bug fixes and cleanup.

1d18c2747f cgroup/pids: remove spurious suspicious RCU usage warning
pids_can_fork() is special in that the css association is guaranteed
to be stable throughout the function and thus doesn't need RCU
protection around task_css access.  When determining the css to charge
the pid, task_css_check() is used to override the RCU sanity check.

While adding a warning message on fork rejection from pids limit,
135b8b37bd ("cgroup: Add pids controller event when fork fails
because of pid limit") incorrectly added a task_css access which is
neither RCU protected or explicitly annotated.  This triggers the
following suspicious RCU usage warning when RCU debugging is enabled.

There's no reason to dereference task_css again here when the
associated css is already available.  Fix it by replacing the
task_cgroup() call with css->cgroup.

780de9dd27 sched/headers, cgroups: Remove the threadgroup_change_*() wrappery
threadgroup_change_begin()/end() is a pointless wrapper around
cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin()/end(), minus a might_sleep()
in the !CONFIG_CGROUPS=y case.

Remove the wrappery, move the might_sleep() (the down_read()
already has a might_sleep() check).

This debloats <linux/sched.h> a bit and simplifies this API.

Update all call sites.

No change in functionality.
