Subject: KVM: x86: switch hugepage recovery thread to vhost_task
kvm_vm_create_worker_thread() is meant to be used for kthreads that
can consume significant amounts of CPU time on behalf of a VM or in
response to how the VM behaves (for example how it accesses its memory).
Therefore it wants to charge the CPU time consumed by that work to
the VM's container.
However, because of these threads, cgroups which have kvm instances inside
never complete freezing. This can be trivially reproduced:
root@test ~# mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
root@test ~# echo $fish_pid > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs
root@test ~# qemu-system-x86_64 --nographic -enable-kvm
and in another terminal:
root@test ~# echo 1 > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.freeze
root@test ~# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.events
populated 1
frozen 0
The cgroup freezing happens in the signal delivery path but
kvm_vm_worker_thread() thread never call into the signal delivery path while
joining non-root cgroups, so they never get frozen. Because the cgroup
freezer determines whether a given cgroup is frozen by comparing the number
of frozen threads to the total number of threads in the cgroup, the cgroup
never becomes frozen and users waiting for the state transition may hang
indefinitely.
Since the worker kthread is tied to a user process, it's better if
it behaves similarly to user tasks as much as possible, including
being able to send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT. In fact, vhost_task is all
that kvm_vm_create_worker_thread() wanted to be and more: not only it
inherits the userspace process's cgroups, it has other niceties like
being parented properly in the process tree. Use it instead of the
homegrown alternative.
