From bef67c5a7d3a9c45e091e36625c09c0c811e2672 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li Zefan Date: Fri, 4 Jul 2008 09:59:55 -0700 Subject: cgroups: document the effect of attaching PID 0 to a cgroup Document that a pid of zero(0) can be used to refer to the current task when attaching a task to a cgroup, as in the following usage: # echo 0 > /dev/cgroup/tasks This is consistent with existing cpuset behavior.
