You need to mount cgroup with a special option: # mount -t cgroup -o __DEVEL__sane_behavior xxx /where If a cgroup controller has already been mounted without this option, you won't see it in the unified hierarchy, so firstly you need to delete all cgroups in it and umount it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cgroups" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
