From what I've seen, most of them are in the same phases as Debian, or,
perhaps, behind. Fedora seems to plan that for Fedora 11, and they have
some support in libvirt.

Linux Documentation is not consistent and have some funny options. In
Documentation/cgroups/*, we have:

cgroups.txt:
/dev/cgroup

cpuacct.txt:
/cgroups

devices.txt:
/cgroups

memcg_test.txt:
/opt/cgroup
/opt/cpuset
/cgroup

memory.txt:
/cgroups

cpusets.txt:
/dev/cpuset

freezer-subsystem.txt:
/containers

There is also:

Documentation/scheduler/sched-design-CFS.txt:
/dev/cpuctl
/cgroup

Documentation/scheduler/sched-rt-group.txt:
/cgroup

Documentation/accounting/cgroupstats.txt:
/cgroup


So, we have some more options now: /cgroups, /containers, /dev/cpuset,
/dev/cpuctl, /opt/cgroup, /opt/cpuset.

I am copying the container and the kernel guys. Perhaps, we can find an
agreement (if we want to find one at all) and change all that
Documentation to get consistent.

Cascardo.
