Hi Mike,

I was wonderig if these autogroups can be visible in regular cgroup
hierarchy so that once somebody mounts cpu controller, these are visible?

I was wondering why is a good idea to create a separate interface for
autogroups through proc and not try to integrate it with cgroup interface.

Without it now any user space tool shall have to either disable the
autogroup feature completely or now also worry about /proc interface
and there also autogroups are searchable through pid and there is no
direct way to access these.

IIUC, these autogroups create flat setup and are at same level as
init_task_group and are not children of it. Currently cpu cgroup
is hierarchical by default and any new cgroup is child of init_task_group
and that could lead to representation issues.

Well, will we not get same kind of latency boost if we make these autogroups
children of root? If yes, then hierarchical representation issue of autogroup
will be a moot point.

We already have /proc/<pid>/cgroup interface which points to tasks's
cgroup. We probably can avoid creating /proc/<pid>/autgroup if there
is an associated cgroup which appears in cgroup hierachy and then user
can change the weight of group through cgroup interface (instead of
introducing another interface).

Thanks
Vivek
