[PATCH v2 1/3] cgroup: fix mount failure in a corner case

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



  # cat test.sh
  #! /bin/bash

  mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /cgroup
  umount /cgroup

  mount -t cgroup -o cpu,cpuacct xxx /cgroup
  umount /cgroup
  # ./test.sh
  mount: xxx already mounted or /mnt busy
  mount: according to mtab, xxx is already mounted on /mnt

It's because the cgroupfs_root of the first mount was under destruction
asynchronously.

Fix this by delaying and then retrying mount for this case.

v2:
- use percpu_ref_tryget_live() rather that introducing
  percpu_ref_alive(). (Tejun)
- adjust comment.
