[PATCH 1/2] cgroup_pids: highwater mark of pids

Show all headers | View raw

Track maximum number of processes in cgroup, to be able to configure
cgroup pids limits. The information is available in cgroup FS as file
pids.highwater_mark.

Example case demonstrating how to use the figure for systemd configuration:
root@debian:~# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/systemd-timesyncd.service/pids.highwater_mark
2
root@debian:~# cat /etc/systemd/system/systemd-timesyncd.service.d/local.conf
[Service]
TasksMax=2
root@debian:~# systemctl status systemd-timesyncd.service | grep Tasks
    Tasks: 2 (limit: 2)
