If we mount a hierarchy with a specified name, the name is unique, and we can use it to mount the hierarchy without specifying its set of subsystem names. This feature is documented is Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt section 2.3 Here's an example: # mount -t cgroup -o cpuset,name=myhier xxx /cgroup1 # mount -t cgroup -o name=myhier xxx /cgroup2 But it was broken by commit 32a8cf235e2f192eb002755076994525cdbaa35a (cgroup: make the mount options parsing more accurate) This fixes the regression.
