Go package for creating, managing, inspecting, and destroying cgroups.
The resources format for settings on the cgroup uses the OCI runtime-spec found
[here ](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec ).

## Examples (v1)
2022-04-01 16:16:46 +00:00
### Create a new cgroup
This creates a new cgroup using a static path for all subsystems under `/test` .
* /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test
* /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test
* etc....
It uses a single hierarchy and specifies cpu shares as a resource constraint and
uses the v1 implementation of cgroups.
```go
shares := uint64(100)
control, err := cgroups.New(cgroups.V1, cgroups.StaticPath("/test"), & specs.LinuxResources{
2022-08-19 16:34:07 +00:00
CPU: & specs.LinuxCPU{
2022-04-01 16:16:46 +00:00
Shares: & shares,
},
})
defer control.Delete()
```
### Create with systemd slice support
```go
control, err := cgroups.New(cgroups.Systemd, cgroups.Slice("system.slice", "runc-test"), & specs.LinuxResources{
CPU: & specs.CPU{
Shares: & shares,
},
})
```
### Load an existing cgroup
```go
control, err = cgroups.Load(cgroups.V1, cgroups.StaticPath("/test"))
```
### Add a process to the cgroup
```go
if err := control.Add(cgroups.Process{Pid:1234}); err != nil {
}
```

### Update the cgroup
2022-04-01 16:16:46 +00:00
To update the resources applied in the cgroup
```go
shares = uint64(200)
if err := control.Update(& specs.LinuxResources{
CPU: & specs.LinuxCPU{
Shares: & shares,
},
}); err != nil {
}
```
### Freeze and Thaw the cgroup
```go
if err := control.Freeze(); err != nil {
}
if err := control.Thaw(); err != nil {
}
```
### List all processes in the cgroup or recursively
```go
processes, err := control.Processes(cgroups.Devices, recursive)
```
### Get Stats on the cgroup
```go
stats, err := control.Stat()
```
By adding `cgroups.IgnoreNotExist` all non-existent files will be ignored, e.g. swap memory stats without swap enabled
```go
stats, err := control.Stat(cgroups.IgnoreNotExist)
```
### Move process across cgroups
This allows you to take processes from one cgroup and move them to another.
```go
err := control.MoveTo(destination)
```
### Create subcgroup
```go
subCgroup, err := control.New("child", resources)
```
### Registering for memory events
This allows you to get notified by an eventfd for v1 memory cgroups events.
```go
event := cgroups.MemoryThresholdEvent(50 * 1024 * 1024, false)
efd, err := control.RegisterMemoryEvent(event)
```
```go
event := cgroups.MemoryPressureEvent(cgroups.MediumPressure, cgroups.DefaultMode)
efd, err := control.RegisterMemoryEvent(event)
```
```go
efd, err := control.OOMEventFD()
// or by using RegisterMemoryEvent
event := cgroups.OOMEvent()
efd, err := control.RegisterMemoryEvent(event)
```

## Examples (v2/unified)
### Check that the current system is running cgroups v2
```go
var cgroupV2 bool
if cgroups.Mode() == cgroups.Unified {
cgroupV2 = true
}
```
### Create a new cgroup
This creates a new systemd v2 cgroup slice. Systemd slices consider ["-" a special character ](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.slice.html ),
so the resulting slice would be located here on disk:
* /sys/fs/cgroup/my.slice/my-cgroup.slice/my-cgroup-abc.slice
```go
import (
cgroupsv2 "github.com/containerd/cgroups/v2"
specs "github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/specs-go"
)
res := cgroupsv2.Resources{}
// dummy PID of -1 is used for creating a "general slice" to be used as a parent cgroup.
// see https://github.com/containerd/cgroups/blob/1df78138f1e1e6ee593db155c6b369466f577651/v2/manager.go#L732-L735
m, err := cgroupsv2.NewSystemd("/", "my-cgroup-abc.slice", -1, & res)
if err != nil {
return err
}
```
### Load an existing cgroup
```go
m, err := cgroupsv2.LoadSystemd("/", "my-cgroup-abc.slice")
if err != nil {
return err
}
```
### Delete a cgroup
```go
m, err := cgroupsv2.LoadSystemd("/", "my-cgroup-abc.slice")
if err != nil {
return err
}
err = m.DeleteSystemd()
if err != nil {
return err
}
```

### Attention
All static path should not include `/sys/fs/cgroup/` prefix, it should start with your own cgroups name
