[PATCH 2/2] cgroup: Add a allow_attach policy for Android

From: John Stultz
Date: Tue Oct 04 2016 - 00:41:41 EST


From: Rom Lemarchand <romlem@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If CONFIG_CGROUP_NICE_ATTACH is enabled, this implements an
allow_attach policy for Android, which allows any process with
CAP_SYS_NICE to move tasks across cpuset and cpuctrl cgroups.

This includes folded down fixes from:
Dmitry Shmidt <dimitrysh@xxxxxxxxxx>
Riley Andrews <riandrews@xxxxxxxxxx>
Amit Pundir <amit.pundir@xxxxxxxxxx>

[jstultz: Majorly reworked to make this policy function
configurable, and folded in fixes]
