rework mem_cgroup iterator

Hi all, this is a second version of the patchset previously posted here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/13/335 The patch set tries to make mem_cgroup_iter saner in the way how it walks hierarchies. css->id based traversal is far from being ideal as it is not deterministic because it depends on the

[patch v2 2/6] memcg: keep prev's css alive for the whole mem_cgroup_iter

css reference counting keeps the cgroup alive even though it has been already removed. mem_cgroup_iter relies on this fact and takes a reference to the returned group. The reference is then released on the next iteration or mem_cgroup_iter_break. mem_cgroup_iter currently releases the reference rig

[patch v2 1/6] memcg: synchronize per-zone iterator access by a spinlock

per-zone per-priority iterator is aimed at coordinating concurrent reclaimers on the same hierarchy (or the global reclaim when all groups are reclaimed) so that all groups get reclaimed evenly as much as possible. iter->position holds the last css->id visited and iter->generation signals the compl

[patch v2 6/6] cgroup: remove css_get_next

[patch v2 5/6] memcg: further simplify mem_cgroup_iter

mem_cgroup_iter basically does two things currently. It takes care of the house keeping (reference counting, raclaim cookie) and it iterates through a hierarchy tree (by using cgroup generic tree walk). The code would be much more easier to follow if we move the iteration outside of the function (t

[patch v2 3/6] memcg: rework mem_cgroup_iter to use cgroup iterators

mem_cgroup_iter curently relies on css->id when walking down a group hierarchy tree. This is really awkward because the tree walk depends on the groups creation ordering. The only guarantee is that a parent node is visited before its children. Example 1) mkdir -p a a/d a/b/c 2) mkdir -a a/b/c a/d

[patch v2 4/6] memcg: simplify mem_cgroup_iter

Current implementation of mem_cgroup_iter has to consider both css and memcg to find out whether no group has been found (css==NULL - aka the loop is completed) and that no memcg is associated with the found node (!memcg - aka css_tryget failed because the group is no longer alive). This leads to a
