Fix the deadlock of rl_lock.
Hi,
Changelog of v2:
- Add the description of the problematic call sequence.
- There is not any change in the code.
[PATCH-v2] Fix the deadlock of rl_lock.
For avoiding the deadlock, protect cdgroup_change_cgroup_uid_gid_flags()
by blocking SIGUSR2 signal.
The problematic call sequence is the following:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* CGRULESENGD DAEMON *
<< cgre_flash_rules() is the signal handler for SIGUSR2 signal >>
cgre_create_netlink_socket_process_msg()
<< Receive a UID/GID event packet >>
cgre_handle_msg()
cgre_process_event()
cgroup_change_cgroup_uid_gid_flags()
cgroup_find_matching_rule_uid_gid()
pthread_rwlock_wrlock(&rl_lock); << Get the lock of rl_lock >>
<< Receive a SIGUSR2 signal, and switch to cgre_flash_rules() >>
cgre_flash_rules()
cgroup_reload_cached_rules()
cgroup_parse_rules()
pthread_rwlock_wrlock(&rl_lock); << deadlock ! >>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A cgrulesengd daemon needs a lock of rl_lock for referring configuration
buffer. On the other way, the daemon reloads configuration file when
receiving SIGUSR2 signal, and it needs the same lock in cgroup_parse_rules().
So cgroup_change_cgroup_uid_gid_flags() should be protected from SIGUSR2
signal for avoiding the deadlock.

Fix the deadlock of vsyslog() call.

I found the deadlock problem that a cgrulesengd daemon stalls if

The following is the gdb output by attaching the stalling daemon:

We can see __vsyslog_chk() is called twice, because the daemon
recieved a SIGUSR2 signal in __vsyslog_chk(). In __vsyslog_chk(),
"syslog_lock" is locked by __libc_lock_lock(syslog_lock).
So I think vsyslog() should be protected by blocking the signal,
and this patch fixes the problem by doing it.

I tested a cgrlesengd daemon with huge load, which makes many 'su',
in long time. And the daemon was killed by an OOM killer. So the
daemon has memory leak. This patch fixes this problem.
The daemon allocates memory at cg_prepare_cgroup(), but it does not
free the memory. This patch adds necessary free() to cgroup_change_
cgroup_path by calling cgroup_free_controllers(). In addition, this
patch adds free()s for handling error and flushes the counters of the
allocations in cgroup_free_controllers().
Changelog v2:
* Use clock_gettime(2) for getting timestamp since a system boot.
* Change parent_info's memory to dynamic allocation.
This patch is for changing the cgroup of a forked process while parent
changing.
This patch adds the following sequence:
1. Store both the timestamp and the process-id when changing the cgroup.
2. If receiving a PROC_EVENT_FORK packet, check its parent-pid and its
timestamp.
3. If its parent-pid and the stored process-id are same and its timestamp
is older than the stored timestamp, change the cgroup of forked process.
I have been testing a cgrulesengd daemon and I noticed it fails to
change the cgroup of child occasionally. I tested it by following
configulation file:
A cpuset subsystem and a memory subsystem are mounted on different
mount points, and a cgrulesengd daemon manages each subsystem.
I login this environment as a user "user01", and each susbystem's
tasks file is the following:
They should be the same, but they are different. I investigated this
problem, and I found the cause. The reason is that the process(31806)
was forked just after writing the process(31805) to a cpuset subsystem's
tasks file:
<1> The UID/GID CHANGE event of the process 31805 happens.
<2> The daemon writes "31805" to a cpuset subsystem's tasks file.
<3> The process 31806 is forked, and it appears on a cpuset subsystem's
tasks file.
<4> The daemon writes "31805" to a memory subsystem's tasks file.
<5> The process 31806 does not appears on a memory subsystem's tasks file.
For solving this problem, I propose the following sequence.
1. Store both the timestamp and the process-id when the step <4>.
2. If receiving a PROC_EVENT_FORK packet, check its parent-pid and its
timestamp.
3. If its parent-pid and the stored process-id are same and its timestamp
is older than the stored timestamp, change the cgroup of forked process.
Changelog of v2:
* Change only [PATCH 2/2] and there is not any changes in [PATCH 1/2].
This patch adds the method for getting euid/egid from /proc/<pid>/status
file.
For changing the cgroup of a forked process, the method is usefull because

group name.

Here is the v2 of the patch which introduces APIs to read controller
specific stats. Added Makefile.am updates which I had missed in the
previous post.
New APIs to read controller specific statistics.
This patch introduces 3 new APIs which can be used to read controller
statistics iteratively. (Eg. stats from memory.stat etc)
Reading of stats is initiated by cgroup_read_stats_begin() API, which
returns the first stat of the requested controller in addition to returing
a handle that should be used in subsequent reads.
cgroup_read_stats_next() API can be used to read the remaining stats
one by one. This needs the handle returned by cgroup_read_stats_begin().
cgroup_read_stats_end() API will terminate the stats reading iteration
initiated by cgroup_read_stats_begin().
Changelog:
v2
- Update tests/Makefile.am so that it generates appropriate rules
for tests/read_stats.c in the Makefile. This is in addition to
the manual updates done to the generated file tests/Makefile.in.

Feature: Provide new libcgroup walk tree API
From: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Changelog v3..v4
1. Add _end() method for the iterator
Changelog v3..v2
1. Move to iterator based design
Changelog v2..v1
1. Add base path and depth semantics for walking
This patch adds the capability to walk cgroups by providing a new API
called cgroup_walk_tree. The API accepts the controller to walk and the
order in which the directories and files must be visited. The code is
implemented as an iterator, the begin function starts the walk and
we have depth control. The next function gets the following node
and returns ECGEOF when done.
libcgroup.map has been updated to reflect the same change and the prototype
is exported in libcgroup.h.
I've also added test cases (tests/walk_test.c). Sample output is show
root is /cgroup/cpu///
path , parent , relative /, full /cgroup/cpu///
path l3, parent , relative /l3, full /cgroup/cpu///l3

NOTE: Parent directory is represented by an empty (not NULL) string "".
The length of the string is 0.

libcgroup: Update specfile for v0.33 and bump up the version
From: Ivana Varekova <varekova@redhat.com>
OK, here goes
This patch Originally from Ivana and with changes I've made, get the
spec file working again (rpmlint warnings need some care and
ownership).
The new version will be 0.33 and will have new man pages and newer
API and many more bug fixes
[varekova@redhat.com] Incorporate pam module instalation to the spec file -
file part change add dependency
[balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com] Bumped up the version, getting ready for a new
release. Updated makefile to install new man pages and to move the pam
module to the correct place at the time of installation.

bcgroup: Rename 'flash' to 'reload'
LSB specifies that 'reload' is the right initscript parameter to stimulate
daemon to reread its configuration file. I let the 'flash' still working, in
case somebody is used to it, but do not advertise it anywhere.
