-config CGROUP_PIDS
- bool "PIDs cgroup subsystem"
- help
- Provides enforcement of process number limits in the scope of a
- cgroup. Any attempt to fork more processes than is allowed in the
- cgroup will fail. PIDs are fundamentally a global resource because it
- is fairly trivial to reach PID exhaustion before you reach even a
- conservative kmemcg limit. As a result, it is possible to grind a
- system to halt without being limited by other cgroup policies. The
- PIDs cgroup subsystem is designed to stop this from happening.
-
- It should be noted that organisational operations (such as attaching
- to a cgroup hierarchy will *not* be blocked by the PIDs subsystem),
- since the PIDs limit only affects a process's ability to fork, not to
- attach to a cgroup.

help
- Add swap management feature to memory resource controller. When you
- enable this, you can limit mem+swap usage per cgroup. In other words,
- when you disable this, memory resource controller has no cares to
- usage of swap...a process can exhaust all of the swap. This extension
- is useful when you want to avoid exhaustion swap but this itself
- adds more overheads and consumes memory for remembering information.
- Especially if you use 32bit system or small memory system, please
- be careful about enabling this. When memory resource controller
- is disabled by boot option, this will be automatically disabled and
- there will be no overhead from this. Even when you set this config=y,
- if boot option "swapaccount=0" is set, swap will not be accounted.
- Now, memory usage of swap_cgroup is 2 bytes per entry. If swap page
- size is 4096bytes, 512k per 1Gbytes of swap.
+ Provides control over the swap space consumed by tasks in a cgroup.

- help
- Provides a cgroup Resource Controller for HugeTLB pages.
- When you enable this, you can put a per cgroup limit on HugeTLB usage.
- The limit is enforced during page fault. Since HugeTLB doesn't
- support page reclaim, enforcing the limit at page fault time implies
- that, the application will get SIGBUS signal if it tries to access
- HugeTLB pages beyond its limit. This requires the application to know
- beforehand how much HugeTLB pages it would require for its use. The
- control group is tracked in the third page lru pointer. This means
