Cgroup 用法

实在懒得写了，cgroup转一篇，Cgroup 用法，写得很详细。对cgroup子系统的分析可参考下面两篇。

cgroup 分析之CPU和内存部分

cgroup 子系统之 net_cls 和 net_prio

介绍docker的的过程中，提到lxc利用cgroup来提供资源的限额和控制，本文主要介绍cgroup的用法和操作命令，主要内容来自

cgroup

cgroup的功能在于将一台计算机上的资源(CPU,memory, network)进行分片，来防止进程间不利的资源抢占。

Terminology

cgroup - 关联一组task和一组subsystem的配置参数。一个task对应一个进程, cgroup是资源分片的最小单位。
subsystem - 资源管理器，一个subsystem对应一项资源的管理，如 cpu, cpuset, memory等
hierarchy - 关联一个到多个subsystem和一组树形结构的cgroup. 和cgroup不同，hierarchy包含的是可管理的subsystem而非具体参数

由此可见，cgroup对资源的管理是一个树形结构，类似进程。

相同点 - 分层结构，子进程/cgroup继承父进程/cgroup

不同点 - 进程是一个单根树状结构(pid=0为根)，而cgroup整体来看是一个多树的森林结构(hierarchy为根)。

一个典型的hierarchy挂载目录如下

/cgroup/
├── blkio                           <--------------- hierarchy/root cgroup                   
│   ├── blkio.io_merged             <--------------- subsystem parameter
... ...
│   ├── blkio.weight
│   ├── blkio.weight_device
│   ├── cgroup.event_control
│   ├── cgroup.procs
│   ├── lxc                         <--------------- cgroup
│   │   ├── blkio.io_merged         <--------------- subsystem parameter
│   │   ├── blkio.io_queued
... ... ...
│   │   └── tasks                   <--------------- task list
│   ├── notify_on_release
│   ├── release_agent
│   └── tasks
...

subsystem列表

RHEL/centos支持的subsystem如下

blkio — 块存储配额 >> this subsystem sets limits on input/output access to and from block devices such as physical drives (disk, solid state, USB, etc.).
cpu — CPU时间分配限制 >> this subsystem uses the scheduler to provide cgroup tasks access to the CPU.
cpuacct — CPU资源报告 >> this subsystem generates automatic reports on CPU resources used by tasks in a cgroup.
cpuset — CPU绑定限制 >> this subsystem assigns individual CPUs (on a multicore system) and memory nodes to tasks in a cgroup.
devices — 设备权限限制 >> this subsystem allows or denies access to devices by tasks in a cgroup.
freezer — cgroup停止/恢复 >> this subsystem suspends or resumes tasks in a cgroup.
memory — 内存限制 >> this subsystem sets limits on memory use by tasks in a cgroup, and generates automatic reports on memory resources used by those tasks.
net_cls — 配合tc进行网络限制 >> this subsystem tags network packets with a class identifier (classid) that allows the Linux traffic controller (tc) to identify packets originating from a particular cgroup task.
net_prio — 网络设备优先级 >> this subsystem provides a way to dynamically set the priority of network traffic per network interface.
ns — 资源命名空间限制 >> the namespace subsystem.

cgroup操作准则与方法

操作准则

1.一个hierarchy可以有多个 subsystem (mount 的时候hierarchy可以attach多个subsystem)

A single hierarchy can have one or more subsystems attached to it.

eg.

  mount -t cgroup -o cpu,cpuset,memory cpu_and_mem /cgroup/cpu_and_mem

cgroup-rule1

2.一个已经被挂载的 subsystem 只能被再次挂载在一个空的 hierarchy 上 (已经mount一个subsystem的hierarchy不能挂载一个已经被其它hierarchy挂载的subsystem)

Any single subsystem (such as cpu) cannot be attached to more than one hierarchy if one of those hierarchies has a different subsystem attached to it already.

cgroup-rule2

3.每个task只能在一同个hierarchy的唯一一个cgroup里(不能在同一个hierarchy下有超过一个cgroup的tasks里同时有这个进程的pid)

Each time a new hierarchy is created on the systems, all tasks on the system are initially members of the default cgroup of that hierarchy, which is known as the root cgroup. For any single hierarchy you create, each task on the system can be a member of exactly onecgroup in that hierarchy. A single task may be in multiple cgroups, as long as each of those cgroups is in a different hierarchy. As soon as a task becomes a member of a second cgroup in the same hierarchy, it is removed from the first cgroup in that hierarchy. At no time is a task ever in two different cgroups in the same hierarchy.

cgroup-rule3

4.子进程在被fork出时自动继承父进程所在cgroup，但是fork之后就可以按需调整到其他cgroup

Any process (task) on the system which forks itself creates a child task. A child task automatically inherits the cgroup membership of its parent but can be moved to different cgroups as needed. Once forked, the parent and child processes are completely independent.

cgroup-rule4

5.其它

限制一个task的唯一方法就是将其加入到一个cgroup的task里
多个subsystem可以挂载到一个hierarchy里, 然后通过不同的cgroup中的subsystem参数来对不同的task进行限额
如果一个hierarchy有太多subsystem，可以考虑重构 - 将subsystem挂到独立的hierarchy; 相应的, 可以将多个hierarchy合并成一个hierarchy
因为可以只挂载少量subsystem, 可以实现只对task单个方面的限额; 同时一个task可以被加到多个hierarchy中，从而实现对多个资源的控制

操作方法

1.挂载subsystem

利用cgconfig服务及其配置文件 /etc/cgconfig.conf - 服务启动时自动挂载
```
subsystem = /cgroup/hierarchy;
```
命令行操作
```
mount -t cgroup -o subsystems name /cgroup/name
```
取消挂载
```
umount /cgroup/name
```
eg. 挂载 cpuset, cpu, cpuacct, memory 4个subsystem到/cgroup/cpu_and_mem 目录(hierarchy)

  mount {
      cpuset  = /cgroup/cpu_and_mem;
      cpu    = /cgroup/cpu_and_mem;
      cpuacct = /cgroup/cpu_and_mem;
      memory  = /cgroup/cpu_and_mem;
  }

  mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpu,cpuset,memory cpu_and_mem /cgroup/cpu_and_mem

2. 新建/删除 cgroup

利用cgconfig服务及其配置文件 /etc/cgconfig.conf - 服务启动时自动挂载

group <name> {
    [<permissions>]    <controller> {  <param name> = <param value>;
        …
    }
    …
}

命令行操作
- 新建1 cgcreate -t uid:gid -a uid:gid -g subsystems:path
- 新建2 mkdir /cgroup/hierarchy/name/child_name
- 删除1 cgdelete subsystems:path (使用 -r 递归删除)
- 删除2 rm -rf /cgroup/hierarchy/name/child_name (cgconfig service not running)

3. 权限管理

利用cgconfig服务及其配置文件 /etc/cgconfig.conf - 服务启动时自动挂载

perm {
    task {
        uid = <task user>;
        gid = <task group>;
    }
    admin {
      uid = <admin name>;
      gid = <admin group>;
    }
}

命令行操作 chown
eg.

  group daemons {
      cpuset {
          cpuset.mems = 0;
          cpuset.cpus = 0;
      }
  }
  group daemons/sql {
      perm {
          task {
              uid = root;
              gid = sqladmin;
          } admin {
              uid = root;
              gid = root;
          }
      }
      cpuset {
          cpuset.mems = 0;
          cpuset.cpus = 0;
      }
  }

  ~]$ mkdir -p /cgroup/red/daemons/sql
  ~]$ chown root:root /cgroup/red/daemons/sql/*
  ~]$ chown root:sqladmin /cgroup/red/daemons/sql/tasks
  ~]$ echo 0 > /cgroup/red/daemons/cpuset.mems
  ~]$ echo 0 > /cgroup/red/daemons/cpuset.cpus
  ~]$ echo 0 > /cgroup/red/daemons/sql/cpuset.mems
  ~]$ echo 0 > /cgroup/red/daemons/sql/cpuset.cpus

4. cgroup参数设定

命令行1 cgset -r parameter=value path_to_cgroup
命令行2 cgset --copy-from path_to_source_cgroup path_to_target_cgroup
文件 echo value > path_to_cgroup/parameter
eg.

  cgset -r cpuset.cpus=0-1 group1
  cgset --copy-from group1/ group2/
  echo 0-1 > /cgroup/cpuset/group1/cpuset.cpus

5. 添加task

命令行添加进程 cgclassify -g subsystems:path_to_cgroup pidlist
文件添加进程 echo pid > path_to_cgroup/tasks
在cgroup中启动进程 cgexec -g subsystems:path_to_cgroup command arguments
在cgroup中启动服务 echo 'CGROUP_DAEMON="subsystem:control_group"' >> /etc/sysconfig/

利用cgrulesengd服务初始化，在配置文件/etc/cgrules.conf中

user<:command> subsystems control_group

其中:
+用户user的所有进程的subsystems限制的group为control_group
+<:command>是可选项，表示对特定命令实行限制
+user可以用@group表示对特定的 usergroup 而非user
+可以用*表示全部
+%表示和前一行的该项相同

eg.

  cgclassify -g cpu,memory:group1 1701 1138
  echo -e "1701\n1138" |tee -a /cgroup/cpu/group1/tasks /cgroup/memory/group1/tasks
  cgexec -g cpu:group1 lynx http://www.redhat.com
  sh -c "echo \$$ > /cgroup/lab1/group1/tasks && lynx http://www.redhat.com"

通过/etc/cgrules.conf 对特定服务限制

  maria          devices        /usergroup/staff
  maria:ftp      devices        /usergroup/staff/ftp
  @student       cpu,memory     /usergroup/student/
  %              memory         /test2/

6. 其他

cgsnapshot会根据当前cgroup情况生成/etc/cgconfig.conf文件内容

gsnapshot  [-s] [-b FILE] [-w FILE] [-f FILE] [controller]
  -b, --blacklist=FILE  Set the blacklist configuration file (default /etc/cgsnapshot_blacklist.conf)
  -f, --file=FILE       Redirect the output to output_file
  -s, --silent          Ignore all warnings
  -t, --strict          Don't show the variables which are not on the whitelist
  -w, --whitelist=FILE  Set the whitelist configuration file (don't used by default)

```

对于限制资源分配的两个场景，在针对特殊APP的场景中可进行非常细致的调优，而在通用的资源隔离的角度上看，可能更关注的是CPU和内存相关的主要属性
