Subject: [0/1] [patch -mm] Add containerstats (v3)



Changelog (v3)

1. Use the container iterator (Paul Menage)
2. delayacct_set_flag() has now been moved to delayacct_blkio_start
				(Andrew Morton)

Changelog (v2)

1. Instead of parsing long container path's use the dentry to match the
   container for which stats are required. The user space application
   opens the container directory and passes the file descriptor, which
   is used to determine the container for which stats are required.
   This approach was suggested by Paul Menage

This patch is inspired by the discussion at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/187
and implements per container statistics as suggested by Andrew Morton
in http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/263. The patch is on top of 2.6.21-mm1
with Paul's containers v9 patches (forward ported)

This patch implements per container statistics infrastructure and re-uses
code from the taskstats interface. A new set of container operations are
registered with commands and attributes. It should be very easy to
*extend* per container statistics, by adding members to the containerstats
structure.

The current model for containerstats is a pull, a push model (to post
statistics on interesting events), should be very easy to add. Currently
user space requests for statistics by passing the container file descriptor.
Statistics about the state of all the tasks in the container is returned to
user space.

TODO's/NOTE:

This patch provides an infrastructure for implementing container statistics.
Based on the needs of each controller, we can incrementally add more statistics,
event based support for notification of statistics, accumulation of taskstats
into container statistics in the future.

Sample output

# ./containerstats -C /container/a
sleeping 2, blocked 0, running 1, stopped 0, uninterruptible 0

# ./containerstats -C /container/
sleeping 154, blocked 0, running 0, stopped 0, uninterruptible 0

If the approach looks good, I'll enhance and post the user space utility for
the same

Feedback, comments, test results are always welcome!

+Containerstats is inspired by the discussion at
+http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/187 and implements per container statistics as
+suggested by Andrew Morton in http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/11/263.
+
+Per container statistics infrastructure re-uses code from the taskstats
+interface. A new set of container operations are registered with commands
+and attributes specific to containers. It should be very easy to
+extend per container statistics, by adding members to the containerstats
+structure.
+
+The current model for containerstats is a pull, a push model (to post
+statistics on interesting events), should be very easy to add. Currently
+user space requests for statistics by passing the container path.
+Statistics about the state of all the tasks in the container is returned to
+user space.
+
+NOTE: We currently rely on delay accounting for extracting information
+about tasks blocked on I/O. If CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT is disabled, this
+information will not be available.
+
+To extract container statistics a utility very similar to getdelays.c
+has been developed, the sample output of the utility is shown below
+
+~/balbir/containerstats # ./getdelays  -C "/container/a"
+sleeping 1, blocked 0, running 1, stopped 0, uninterruptible 0
+~/balbir/containerstats # ./getdelays  -C "/container"
+sleeping 155, blocked 0, running 1, stopped 0, uninterruptible 2
