246be82bd4 man: link to specific sections of cgroups-v2 document
The document is rather huge, and a specific link is easier to consume. The form
is a bit strange because troff puts the symlink at the bottom, keyed by title,
so we need to use the same link target in all places.

047f5d63d7 cgroup: introduce support for cgroup v2 CPUSET controller
Introduce support for configuring cpus and mems for processes using
cgroup v2 CPUSET controller.  This allows users to limit which cpus
and memory NUMA nodes can be used by processes to better utilize
system resources.

The cgroup v2 interfaces to control it are cpuset.cpus and cpuset.mems
where the requested configuration is written.  However, it doesn't mean
that the requested configuration will be actually used as parent cgroup
may limit the cpus or mems as well.  In order to reflect the real
configuration cgroup v2 provides read-only files cpuset.cpus.effective
and cpuset.mems.effective which are exported to users as well.

c52db42b78 cgroup: Implement default propagation of MemoryLow with DefaultMemoryLow
In cgroup v2 we have protection tunables -- currently MemoryLow and
MemoryMin (there will be more in future for other resources, too). The
design of these protection tunables requires not only intermediate
cgroups to propagate protections, but also the units at the leaf of that
resource's operation to accept it (by setting MemoryLow or MemoryMin).

This makes sense from an low-level API design perspective, but it's a
good idea to also have a higher-level abstraction that can, by default,
propagate these resources to children recursively. In this patch, this
happens by having descendants set memory.low to N if their ancestor has
DefaultMemoryLow=N -- assuming they don't set a separate MemoryLow
value.

Any affected unit can opt out of this propagation by manually setting
`MemoryLow` to some value in its unit configuration. A unit can also
stop further propagation by setting `DefaultMemoryLow=` with no
argument. This removes further propagation in the subtree, but has no
effect on the unit itself (for that, use `MemoryLow=0`).

Our use case in production is simplifying the configuration of machines
which heavily rely on memory protection tunables, but currently require
tweaking a huge number of unit files to make that a reality. This
directive makes that significantly less fragile, and decreases the risk
of misconfiguration.

After this patch is merged, I will implement DefaultMemoryMin= using the
same principles.

10f2864111 core: add CPUQuotaPeriodSec=
This new setting allows configuration of CFS period on the CPU cgroup, instead
of using a hardcoded default of 100ms.

Tested:
- Legacy cgroup + Unified cgroup
- systemctl set-property
- systemctl show
- Confirmed that the cgroup settings (such as cpu.cfs_period_ns) were set
  appropriately, including updating the CPU quota (cpu.cfs_quota_ns) when
  CPUQuotaPeriodSec= is updated.
- Checked that clamping works properly when either period or (quota * period)
  are below the resolution of 1ms, or if period is above the max of 1s.

c72703e26d cgroup: Add DisableControllers= directive to disable controller in subtree
Some controllers (like the CPU controller) have a performance cost that
is non-trivial on certain workloads. While this can be mitigated and
improved to an extent, there will for some controllers always be some
overheads associated with the benefits gained from the controller.
Inside Facebook, the fix applied has been to disable the CPU controller
forcibly with `cgroup_disable=cpu` on the kernel command line.

This presents a problem: to disable or reenable the controller, a reboot
is required, but this is quite cumbersome and slow to do for many
thousands of machines, especially machines where disabling/enabling a
stateful service on a machine is a matter of several minutes.

Currently systemd provides some configuration knobs for these in the
form of `[Default]CPUAccounting`, `[Default]MemoryAccounting`, and the
like. The limitation of these is that Default*Accounting is overrideable
by individual services, of which any one could decide to reenable a
controller within the hierarchy at any point just by using a controller
feature implicitly (eg. `CPUWeight`), even if the use of that CPU
feature could just be opportunistic. Since many services are provided by
the distribution, or by upstream teams at a particular organisation,
it's not a sustainable solution to simply try to find and remove
offending directives from these units.

This commit presents a more direct solution -- a DisableControllers=
directive that forcibly disallows a controller from being enabled within
a subtree.

Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we
use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I
would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in
recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds
now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight.

Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable.

818bf54632 tree-wide: drop 'This file is part of systemd' blurb
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html

The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.

hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.

Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.

I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

In principle we shouldn't merge this until after 4.15 is released, but the
chances of a revert upstream are low, and in that unlikely scenario we can just
revert this patch, it's a trivial documentation update after all.

1bdfc7b951 core/cgroup: assigning empty string to Delegate= resets list of controllers (#7336)
Before this, assigning empty string to Delegate= makes no change to the
controller list. This is inconsistent to the other options that take list
of strings. After this, when empty string is assigned to Delegate=, the
list of controllers is reset. Such behavior is consistent to other options
and useful for drop-in configs.

Closes #7334.

7d862ab8c2 core: make settings for unified cgroup hierarchy supersede the ones for legacy hierarchy (#4269)
There are overlapping control group resource settings for the unified and
legacy hierarchies.  To help transition, the settings are translated back and
forth.  When both versions of a given setting are present, the one matching the
cgroup hierarchy type in use is used.  Unfortunately, this is more confusing to
use and document than necessary because there is no clear static precedence.

Update the translation logic so that the settings for the unified hierarchy are
always preferred.  systemd.resource-control man page is updated to reflect the
change and reorganized so that the deprecated settings are at the end in its
own section.

66ebf6c0a1 core: add cgroup CPU controller support on the unified hierarchy
Unfortunately, due to the disagreements in the kernel development community,
CPU controller cgroup v2 support has not been merged and enabling it requires
applying two small out-of-tree kernel patches.  The situation is explained in
the following documentation.

 https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup.git/tree/Documentation/cgroup-v2-cpu.txt?h=cgroup-v2-cpu

While it isn't clear what will happen with CPU controller cgroup v2 support,
there are critical features which are possible only on cgroup v2 such as
buffered write control making cgroup v2 essential for a lot of workloads.  This
commit implements systemd CPU controller support on the unified hierarchy so
that users who choose to deploy CPU controller cgroup v2 support can easily
take advantage of it.

On the unified hierarchy, "cpu.weight" knob replaces "cpu.shares" and "cpu.max"
replaces "cpu.cfs_period_us" and "cpu.cfs_quota_us".  [Startup]CPUWeight config
options are added with the usual compat translation.  CPU quota settings remain
unchanged and apply to both legacy and unified hierarchies.

v2: - Error in man page corrected.
    - CPU config application in cgroup_context_apply() refactored.
    - CPU accounting now works on unified hierarchy.
