> cgroup is scheduled to be converted to use kernfs, which is currently > in the process of being separated out of sysfs, so that, among other > things, cgroup core locking can be decoupled from vfs layer. This > patchset cleans up and conslidates cgroup file handling to facilitate > such conversion. > > There currently are a couple different rw paths including the ones > which don't impose any structure. All existing users and expected > reasonable use cases can be served with standard seq_file interface > and buffered writes, which is what's provided by kernfs. > > This patchset updates cgroup file handling so that the interface and > usages are more concise and there is single path for read and single > path for write, both of which closely map to the interface kernfs > provides. > > This series ends up adding some amount of code which will be replaced > by kernfs but, overall, things get more streamlined and LOC is > reduced. > > The following 12 patches are included in the series. > > 0001-cgroup-sched-convert-away-from-cftype-read_map.patch > 0002-cpuset-convert-away-from-cftype-read.patch > 0003-memcg-convert-away-from-cftype-read-and-read_map.patch > 0004-netprio_cgroup-convert-away-from-cftype-read_map.patch > 0005-hugetlb_cgroup-convert-away-from-cftype-read.patch > 0006-cgroup-remove-cftype-read-read_map-and-write.patch > 0007-cgroup-unify-cgroup_write_X64-and-cgroup_write_strin.patch > 0008-cgroup-unify-read-path-so-that-seq_file-is-always-us.patch > 0009-cgroup-generalize-cgroup_pidlist_open_file.patch > 0010-cgroup-attach-cgroup_open_file-to-all-cgroup-files.patch > 0011-cgroup-replace-cftype-read_seq_string-with-cftype-se.patch > 0012-cgroup-unify-pidlist-and-other-file-handling.patch > Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@xxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
