It is too, I've stated multiple times that the no internal tasks thing is bad and that the root exception is an inexcusable wart that makes the whole thing internally inconsistent. But talking to you guys is pointless. You'll just keep moving air until the other party tires and gives up.

Yes, v2 not allowing that rules it out as a valid model. > Assuming that, I don't think your position is against cgroup v2 but > more toward keeping v1 around.

I don't block that use-case, I block cgroup-v2, its shit. The fact is, the naming "v2" suggests its a replacement and will deprecate "v1". Also the implementation is mutually exclusive with v1, you have to pick one and the other becomes inaccessible. You cannot even pick another one inside a container, breaking the container invariant. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
