      "message": "Freezer: Fix buggy resume test for tasks frozen with cgroup freezer\n\nWhen the cgroup freezer is used to freeze tasks we do not want to thaw\nthose tasks during resume. Currently we test the cgroup freezer\nstate of the resuming tasks to see if the cgroup is FROZEN.  If so\nthen we don\u0027t thaw the task. However, the FREEZING state also indicates\nthat the task should remain frozen.\n\nThis also avoids a problem pointed out by Oren Ladaan: the freezer state\ntransition from FREEZING to FROZEN is updated lazily when userspace reads\nor writes the freezer.state file in the cgroup filesystem. This means that\nresume will thaw tasks in cgroups which should be in the FROZEN state if\nthere is no read/write of the freezer.state file to trigger this\ntransition before suspend.\n\nNOTE: Another \"simple\" solution would be to always update the cgroup\nfreezer state during resume. However it\u0027s a bad choice for several reasons:\nUpdating the cgroup freezer state is somewhat expensive because it requires\nwalking all the tasks in the cgroup and checking if they are each frozen.\nWorse, this could easily make resume run in N^2 time where N is the number\nof tasks in the cgroup. Finally, updating the freezer state from this code\npath requires trickier locking because of the way locks must be ordered.\n\nInstead of updating the freezer state we rely on the fact that lazy\nupdates only manage the transition from FREEZING to FROZEN. We know that\na cgroup with the FREEZING state may actually be FROZEN so test for that\nstate too. This makes sense in the resume path even for partially-frozen\ncgroups -- those that really are FREEZING but not FROZEN.\n\nReported-by: Oren Ladaan \u003corenl@cs.columbia.edu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Matt Helsley \u003cmatthltc@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: stable@kernel.org\nSigned-off-by: Rafael J.

      "message": "container freezer: implement freezer cgroup subsystem\n\nThis patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups\nframework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in\na cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.\n\nThe freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named\nfreezer.state.  Writing \"FROZEN\" to the state file will freeze all tasks\nin the cgroup.  Subsequently writing \"RUNNING\" will unfreeze the tasks in\nthe cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.\n\n* Examples of usage :\n\n   # mkdir /containers/freezer\n   # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers\n   # mkdir /containers/0\n   # echo $some_pid \u003e /containers/0/tasks\n\nto get status of the freezer subsystem :\n\n   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state\n   RUNNING\n\nto freeze all tasks in the container :\n\n   # echo FROZEN \u003e /containers/0/freezer.state\n   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state\n   FREEZING\n   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state\n   FROZEN\n\nto unfreeze all tasks in the container :\n\n   # echo RUNNING \u003e /containers/0/freezer.state\n   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state\n   RUNNING\n\nThis is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space\ntask in a simple scenario.\n\nIt\u0027s important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we\nreturn EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing\nsomething that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this\ntime.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected\nby freezer.state reporting \"FREEZING\" when read.  The state will remain\n\"FREEZING\" until one of these things happens:\n\n\t1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing \"RUNNING\" to\n\t\tthe freezer.state file\n\t2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing \"FROZEN\" to\n\t\tthe freezer.state file (writing \"FREEZING\" is not legal\n\t\tand returns EIO)\n\t3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the \"FROZEN\"\n\t\tstate disappear from the cgroup\u0027s set of tasks.\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: export thaw_process]\nSigned-off-by: Cedric Le Goater \u003cclg@fr.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Matt Helsley \u003cmatthltc@us.ibm.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Serge E.

      "message": "[PATCH] PM: Fix SMP races in the freezer\n\nCurrently, to tell a task that it should go to the refrigerator, we set the\nPF_FREEZE flag for it and send a fake signal to it.  Unfortunately there\nare two SMP-related problems with this approach.  First, a task running on\nanother CPU may be updating its flags while the freezer attempts to set\nPF_FREEZE for it and this may leave the task\u0027s flags in an inconsistent\nstate.  Second, there is a potential race between freeze_process() and\nrefrigerator() in which freeze_process() running on one CPU is reading a\ntask\u0027s PF_FREEZE flag while refrigerator() running on another CPU has just\nset PF_FROZEN for the same task and attempts to reset PF_FREEZE for it.  If\nthe refrigerator wins the race, freeze_process() will state that PF_FREEZE\nhasn\u0027t been set for the task and will set it unnecessarily, so the task\nwill go to the refrigerator once again after it\u0027s been thawed.\n\nTo solve first of these problems we need to stop using PF_FREEZE to tell\ntasks that they should go to the refrigerator.  Instead, we can introduce a\nspecial TIF_*** flag and use it for this purpose, since it is allowed to\nchange the other tasks\u0027 TIF_*** flags and there are special calls for it.\n\nTo avoid the freeze_process()-refrigerator() race we can make\nfreeze_process() to always check the task\u0027s PF_FROZEN flag after it\u0027s read\nits \"freeze\" flag.  We should also make sure that refrigerator() will\nalways reset the task\u0027s \"freeze\" flag after it\u0027s set PF_FROZEN for it.\n\nSigned-off-by: Rafael J.
