Hi All,

This is with reference to the Layer-2 patches that Dhaval had posted sometime
back. [1][2]

There has been a lot of discussions on this mailing list regarding libcgroup
adoption. I would like to work on this further to get the library integrated
to projects exploiting cgroups fs directly.

IMHO, Current libcgroup tree and the above Layer-2 patches addresses few of
the concerns that were raised during the discussions:

  Addressed
   - Does not expose lot of structures to the application, provide accessors.
   - Out of the box support of latest libcgroup version in the distro.
   - Application should not care about controllers
   - Application should not care what they(memory.limit_in_bytes) are called in
     the CGroup FS. 
   - Application should not care of what data type/format is stored in FS
   - Path creation API instead of calling multiple calls to create a hierarchy

  To do:
   - A clean patch for libvirt to switch to libcgroup.
   - Application to be provided a single handle which can be used for further
     cgroup API calls.

I would like to know your suggestions or comments with respect to these
patches. Your feedback would be valuable for me to continue in the direction
where I can make useful contribution.

Regards,
Nikunj
