Because it does check for write permissions on the destination cgroup.procs file. That's why I've added the cgroup_get_from_file() helper. :) See: static int cgroup_attach_permissions(struct cgroup *src_cgrp, struct cgroup *dst_cgrp, struct super_block *sb, bool thread) { int ret = 0; ret = cgroup_procs_write_permission(src_cgrp, dst_cgrp, sb); if (ret) return ret; ret = cgroup_migrate_vet_dst(dst_cgrp); if (ret) return ret; if (thread && !cgroup_same_domain(src_cgrp->dom_cgrp, dst_cgrp->dom_cgrp)) ret = -EOPNOTSUPP; return ret; } Maybe I'm misunderstanding though. :) Thanks!
