Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/4] cgroups: Start a basic rlimit subsystem
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2011 01:51:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308527474-20704-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)

This starts a basic rlimit cgroup subsystem with only the
equivalent of RLIMIT_NPROC yet. This can be useful to limit
the global effects of a local fork bomb for example (local
in term of a cgroup).

The thing is further expandable to host more general resource
limitations in the scope of a cgroup.

Frederic Weisbecker (4):
  cgroups: Allow a cgroup subsys to reject a fork
  cgroups: Add res_counter_write_u64() API
  cgroups: New resource counter inheritance API
  cgroups: Add an rlimit subsystem
