That's fine, I'm not changing that ability at all.

Lennart and Kay, is this what systemd is doing? I really don't think we should be adding a root /cgroup/ mount point to the system for something like this. Maybe /dev/cgroup/ is better to use, as that way users can create sub-mount points easier. They can't do that in /sys/fs/cgroup/ thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
