Hi Reinette, Fenghua,
This patch series implements the solution Reinette suggested in the earlier RFD thread[1] for the problem of moving a container's tasks to a different control group on systems that don't provide enough CLOSIDs to give every container its own control group.
This patch series assumes that a MON group's CLOSID can simply be changed to that of a new parent CTRL_MON group. This is allowed on Intel and AMD, but not MPAM implementations. While we (Google) only foresee needing this functionality on Intel and AMD systems, this series should hopefully be a good starting point for supporting MPAM.
Thanks! -Peter
Updates:
v5: - rebase to v6.3-rc4 - dropped rdt_move_group_tasks() task filter patch - code/comment clarifications and errno updates requested by Reinette - added Documentation patch
v4: - rebase to v6.2 - commit message updates suggested by Reinette - replace rdt_move_one_task() patch with rdt_move_group_tasks() filter function patch - prevent rename on files or renaming to "mon_groups" - optimize simple rename case - disallow renaming groups with non-empty cpumask - ensure source is a proper MON group directory - fix missing rdtgrp->closid update - add more last_command_status output
v3: use revised task CLOSID/RMID update IPI sync method from [3] v2: reworded change logs based on what I've learned from review comments in another patch series[2]
