Thanks, Balbir. By the last sentence, are you talking about having cgroup in its own libcgroup, or do you mean something else? On the topic of cgroups, does anyone not agree that we should try to get rid of the ns cgroup, at least once user namespaces can prevent root in a container from escaping their cgroup? thanks, -serge -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
