From 0670e08bdfc67272f8c3087030417465629b8073 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li Zefan Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2009 16:57:30 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] cgroups: don't change release_agent when remount failed Remount can fail in either case: - wrong mount options is specified, or option 'noprefix' is changed. - a to-be-added subsys is already mounted/active. When using remount to change 'release_agent', for the above former failure case, remount will return errno with release_agent unchanged, but for the latter case, remount will return EBUSY with relase_agent changed, which is unexpected I think: # mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /cgrp1 # mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,release_agent=agent1 yyy /cgrp2 # cat /cgrp2/release_agent agent1 # mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpuset,noprefix,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2 mount: /cgrp2 not mounted already, or bad option # cat /cgrp2/release_agent agent1 <-- ok # mount -t cgroup -o remount,cpu,cpuset,release_agent=agent2 yyy /cgrp2 mount: /cgrp2 is busy # cat /cgrp2/release_agent agent2 <-- unexpected!
