2009-09-24cgroups: move the cgroup debug subsys into cgroup.c to access internal statePaul Menage
While it's architecturally clean to have the cgroup debug subsystem be completely independent of the cgroups framework, it limits its usefulness for debugging the contents of internal data structures. Move the debug subsystem code into the scope of all the cgroups data structures to make more detailed debugging possible.

2009-04-02debug cgroup: remove unneeded cgroup_lockLi Zefan
Since we are in cgroup write handler, so the cgrp is valid, so we don't have to hold cgroup_mutex when calling cgroup_task_count(). One similar example is in cgroup_tasks_open().

2008-10-20cgroups: fix probable race with put_css_set[_taskexit] and find_css_setLai Jiangshan
put_css_set_taskexit may be called when find_css_set is called on other cpu. And the race will occur: put_css_set_taskexit side find_css_set side | atomic_dec_and_test(&kref->refcount) | /* kref->refcount = 0 */ | .................................................................... | read_lock(&css_set_lock) | find_existing_css_set | get_css_set | read_unlock(&css_set_lock); .................................................................... __release_css_set | .................................................................... | /* use a released css_set */ | [put_css_set is the same. But in the current code, all put_css_set are put into cgroup mutex critical region as the same as find_css_set.] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: repair comments] [menage@google.com: eliminate race in css_set refcounting] Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@in.ibm.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Menage <menage@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-04-29CGroup API files: move "releasable" to cgroup_debug subsystemPaul Menage
The "releasable" control file provided by the cgroup framework exports the state of a per-cgroup flag that's related to the notify-on-release feature. This isn't really generally useful, unless you're trying to debug this particular feature of cgroups. This patch moves the "releasable" file to the cgroup_debug subsystem.

2008-04-29CGroup API files: rename read/write_uint methods to read_write_u64Paul Menage
Several people have justifiably complained that the "_uint" suffix is inappropriate for functions that handle u64 values, so this patch just renames all these functions and their users to have the suffic _u64.
