Hello, This is v3 of the xt_cgroup2 patchset. Changes from the last take are * Folded cgroup2 path matching into xt_cgroup as a new revision rather than a separate xt_cgroup2 match as suggested by Pablo. * Refreshed on top of Nina's net_cls dynamic config update fix patch. I included the fix patch as part of this series to ease reviewing. The changes from v1 to v2 are * Instead of adding sock->sk_cgroup separately, sock->sk_cgrp_data now carries either (prioidx, classid) pair or cgroup2 pointer. This avoids inflating struct sock with yet another cgroup related field. Unfortunately, this does add some complexity but that's the trade-off and the complexity is contained in cgroup proper. * Various small updats as per David and Jan's reviews. In cgroup v1, dealing with cgroup membership was difficult because the number of membership associations was unbound. As a result, cgroup v1 grew several controllers whose primary purpose is either tagging membership or pull in configuration knobs from other subsystems so that cgroup membership test can be avoided. net_cls and net_prio controllers are examples of the latter. They allow configuring network-specific attributes from cgroup side so that network subsystem can avoid testing cgroup membership; unfortunately, these are not only cumbersome but also problematic. Both net_cls and net_prio aren't properly hierarchical. Both inherit configuration from the parent on creation but there's no interaction afterwards. An ancestor doesn't restrict the behavior in its subtree in anyway and configuration changes aren't propagated downwards. Especially when combined with cgroup delegation, this is problematic because delegatees can mess up whatever network configuration implemented at the system level. net_prio would allow the delegatees to set whatever priority value regardless of CAP_NET_ADMIN and net_cls the same for classid. While it is possible to solve these issues from controller side by implementing hierarchical allowable ranges in both controllers, it would involve quite a bit of complexity in the controllers and further obfuscate network configuration as it becomes even more difficult to tell what's actually being configured looking from the network side. While not much can be done for v1 at this point, as membership handling is sane on cgroup v2, it'd be better to make cgroup matching behave like other network matches and classifiers than introducing further complications.
