I don't have an answer for that but cgroup isn't a place to put such stray configurations either. Please figure out where the configuration belongs first. What you're proposing really isn't a resource controller. There's no resource being distributed hierarchically. It's just dumping configuration which hasn't found its proper place into cgroup. Thanks. -- tejun
