cls_cgroup: Store classid in struct sock Up until now cls_cgroup has relied on fetching the classid out of the current executing thread. This runs into trouble when a packet processing is delayed in which case it may execute out of another thread's context. Furthermore, even when a packet is not delayed we may fail to classify it if soft IRQs have been disabled, because this scenario is indistinguishable from one where a packet unrelated to the current thread is processed by a real soft IRQ. In fact, the current semantics is inherently broken, as a single skb may be constructed out of the writes of two different tasks. A different manifestation of this problem is when the TCP stack transmits in response of an incoming ACK. This is currently unclassified. As we already have a concept of packet ownership for accounting purposes in the skb->sk pointer, this is a natural place to store the classid in a persistent manner. This patch adds the cls_cgroup classid in struct sock, filling up an existing hole on 64-bit :) The value is set at socket creation time. So all sockets created via socket(2) automatically gains the ID of the thread creating it. Whenever another process touches the socket by either reading or writing to it, we will change the socket classid to that of the process if it has a valid (non-zero) classid. For sockets created on inbound connections through accept(2), we inherit the classid of the original listening socket through sk_clone, possibly preceding the actual accept(2) call. In order to minimise risks, I have not made this the authoritative classid. For now it is only used as a backup when we execute with soft IRQs disabled. Once we're completely happy with its semantics we can use it as the sole classid. Footnote: I have rearranged the error path on cls_group module creation. If we didn't do this, then there is a window where someone could create a tc rule using cls_group before the cgroup subsystem has been registered.

cgroup: Assign subsystem IDs during compile time WARNING: With this change it is impossible to load external built controllers anymore. In case where CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP=m and CONFIG_NET_CLS_CGROUP=m is set, corresponding subsys_id should also be a constant. Up to now, net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id would be of the type int and the value would be assigned during runtime. By switching the macro definition IS_SUBSYS_ENABLED from IS_BUILTIN to IS_ENABLED, all *_subsys_id will have constant value. That means we need to remove all the code which assumes a value can be assigned to net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id. A close look is necessary on the RCU part which was introduces by following patch: commit f845172531fb7410c7fb7780b1a6e51ee6df7d52 Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010 Committer: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010 cls_cgroup: Store classid in struct sock Tis code was added to init_cgroup_cls() /* We can't use rcu_assign_pointer because this is an int. */ smp_wmb(); net_cls_subsys_id = net_cls_subsys.subsys_id; respectively to exit_cgroup_cls() net_cls_subsys_id = -1; synchronize_rcu(); and in module version of task_cls_classid() rcu_read_lock(); id = rcu_dereference(net_cls_subsys_id); if (id >= 0) classid = container_of(task_subsys_state(p, id), struct cgroup_cls_state, css)->classid; rcu_read_unlock(); Without an explicit explaination why the RCU part is needed. (The rcu_deference was fixed by exchanging it to rcu_derefence_index_check() in a later commit, but that is a minor detail.) So here is my pondering why it was introduced and why it safe to remove it now. Note that this code was copied over to net_prio the reasoning holds for that subsystem too. The idea behind the RCU use for net_cls_subsys_id is to make sure we get a valid pointer back from task_subsys_state(). task_subsys_state() is just blindly accessing the subsys array and returning the pointer. Obviously, passing in -1 as id into task_subsys_state() returns an invalid value (out of lower bound). So this code makes sure that only after module is loaded and the subsystem registered, the id is assigned. Before unregistering the module all old readers must have left the critical section. This is done by assigning -1 to the id and issuing a synchronized_rcu(). Any new readers wont call task_subsys_state() anymore and therefore it is safe to unregister the subsystem. The new code relies on the same trick, but it looks at the subsys pointer return by task_subsys_state() (remember the id is constant and therefore we allways have a valid index into the subsys array). No precautions need to be taken during module loading module. Eventually, all CPUs will get a valid pointer back from task_subsys_state() because rebind_subsystem() which is called after the module init() function will assigned subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] the newly loaded module subsystem pointer. When the subsystem is about to be removed, rebind_subsystem() will called before the module exit() function. In this case, rebind_subsys() will assign subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] a NULL pointer and then it calls synchronize_rcu(). All old readers have left by then the critical section. Any new reader wont access the subsystem anymore. At this point we are safe to unregister the subsystem. No synchronize_rcu() call is needed.

Whenever another process touches the socket by either reading or writing to it, we will change the socket classid to that of the process if it has a valid (non-zero) classid. For sockets created on inbound connections through accept(2), we inherit the classid of the original listening socket through sk_clone, possibly preceding the actual accept(2) call. In order to minimise risks, I have not made this the authoritative classid. For now it is only used as a backup when we execute with soft IRQs disabled. Once we're completely happy with its semantics we can use it as the sole classid. Footnote: I have rearranged the error path on cls_group module creation. If we didn't do this, then there is a window where someone could create a tc rule using cls_group before the cgroup subsystem has been registered.
