I need to get caught up on this thread, but I did promise Balbir at the mini-summit that I would appear soon-ish with actual use-cases on this from some of the CGL folks. Specifically the case I was thinking of, other than the CGL requirement for VM Strict Overcommit, was finer grained rlimit accounting. It started out in the Collaboration Summit meeting in Austin as a discussion about the SCOPE gaps document and CGOS-4.5 (curiously called Coarse Resource Enforcement, when it's really trying to address per-thread limits). The full document is here in PDF form: http://www.scope-alliance.org/pr/SCOPE_CGOS_GAPS_PROFILE_v2.pdf I'm suspecting now, though, that after re-reading the requirement from SCOPE and the memrlimit discussion, they may in fact be disjoint sets of functionality. -J. _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@openvz.org https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
