Hello, Linus.
cgroup changes for v4.18.
* For cpustat, cgroup has a percpu hierarchical stat mechanism which
propagates up the hierarchy lazily. This pull request contains
commits to factor out and generalize the mechanism so that it can be
used for other cgroup stats too. The original intention was to
update memcg stats to use it but memcg went for a different
approach, so still the only user is cpustat. The factoring out and
generalization still make sense and it's likely that this can be
used for other purposes in the future.
* cgroup uses file modified events to notify certain events. A rate
limiting mechanism is added.
* Other misc changes.
Thanks.
