How about the cpusets approach, where once a cpuset has no children and no processes, a usermode helper can be executed - this could immediately remove the container/bean-counter if that's what the user wants. My generic containers patch copies this from cpusets. > > Moreover, I hope you agree that beancounters can't be made as > module. If so user will have to built-in configfs, and thus > CONFIG_CONFIGFS_FS essentially becomes "bool", not a "tristate". How about a small custom filesystem as part of the containers support, then? I'm not wedded to using configfs itself, but I do think that a filesystem interface is much more debuggable and extensible than a system call interface, and the simple filesystem is only a couple of hundred lines.
