Tejun,
Let me know what you think.
I am providing the bugfix for the recently discussed bogus warning
in your tree, + the sock memcg bits. You should be able to get rid
of populate after that.
Let me know if there is any change you want done, and I'll adapt it.
Glauber Costa (4):
don't trigger warning when d_subdirs is not empty.
pass struct mem_cgroup instead of struct cgroup to socket memcg
provide a function to register more cftype files into memcg
get rid of populate for memcg

The last man standing justifying the need for populate() is the
sock memcg initialization functions. By adopting the convention
that prot->init_cgroup is always called (when existing) with
NULL arguments, we are able to comunicate to the underlying protocol
that it needs to perform global initialization.
We can use that to register cftype files, and then follow the cgroup
rework that gets rid of populate().

The function mem_cgroup_register_cftype() is provided here, so
an optional memcg subsystem that needs to register files at
a time later than memcg initialization can do it.

The only reason cgroup was used, was to be consistent with the populate()
interface. Now that we're getting rid of it, not only we no longer need
it, but we also *can't* call it this way.
Since we will no longer rely on populate(), this will be called from
create(). During create, the association between struct mem_cgroup
and struct cgroup does not yet exist, since cgroup internals hasn't
yet initialized its bookkeeping. This means we would not be able
to draw the memcg pointer from the cgroup pointer in these
functions, which is highly undesirable.

After the change, I think register_kmem_files() is a quite misleading
name.

So, init_cgroup() is overloaded to do two things - one load time init
and per-cgroup init, depending on the args.

What I don't get is why you can't just keep this. Is it because the
files might appear before the protocol is registered? Wouldn't it be
much better to add ipv4_tcp_init_cgroup() or whatever call to
inet_init() instead of overloading init_cgroup() with mostly unrelated
stuff?
Thanks.

Why not just export mem_cgroup_subsys?
Thanks.

I'm fine either way. I usually prefer not exporting raw data like this,
but that's 100 % taste. How do you prefer me to do it?

how about init_kmem() ?
Remember the slab bits will are likely to end up here as well in the end.

Yes. I don't love it, but there is quite a bunch of precedents for this.
Like the shrinkers in vmscan, for instance.
a NULL argument is a probe, a valid argument should have action taken.

The reason is that this has to be kept generic for protocols that may
want to implement this in the future - since the pressure controls
themselves are generic, the per-cgroup versions should be as well.
And in general, a protocol can live in a module, or not be registered
despite being compiled in.
When the root memcg is created, prot_register() is usually not yet
called, at least for tcp.
Now, what we do with the files, are our decision in the end. If you
want, we can use CGROUP_SUBSYS_CFTYPES(mem_cgroup_subsys, tcp_files)
as you suggested. tcp itself is always available if it is compiled in.
Then in the future, if anyone cares about adding support for a protocol
that may differ in that aspect, we can put the files nevertheless, and
use ENOTSUPP as kame suggested for the swap accounting.
What's your take ?

I don't know. Whatever which describes what's going on.
memcg_init_kmem()?

Please don't. Just add a new callback if necessary.

Hmmmm... yeah, CGROUP_SUBSYS_CFTYPES() would register the files on
module load but won't unregister them on unload. Will fix that.
However, the fact that files living in modules shouldn't be a problem
in itself. If those file handlers can cope with protocol not being
registered yet, everything should be fine.

I don't quite get why a protocol module would be loaded but not
reigstered. Do we actually have cases like that? I know it's
mechanically possible but don't think there's any actual use case or
existing code which does that, so no need to worry about them.
Thanks.

Ok, I can change that.
