Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/4] cgroup: add CSS ID

Hi.

Sorry for very late reply.

It looks good in general.
Just a few comments.

Just for clarification, is there any user of this function ?
(I agree it's natulal to define 'lookup' function, though.)

I think it's safe here, but isn't it better to call css_id/css_depth
under rcu_read_lock(they call rcu_dereference) ?

Can't be css_is_ancestor used here ?
I think it would be more easy to understand.
