cgroups-fs

Native Rust library for managing Linux Control Groups (cgroups).

This crate, curently, only supports the original, V1 hierarchy. You are welcome to contribute Cgroups V2 support.

Prior art

• cgroups - it does too many things (e.g. creates cgroups in the subsystems that I don't plan to use, parses control files that I don't plan to use).

Usage

First, add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
cgroups-fs = "1.0"

Next, use it in your crate:

use cgroups_fs;

Examples

use cgroups_fs;

let my_cgroup = cgroups_fs::CgroupName("my-cgroup");
let my_cpu_cgroup = cgroups_fs::Cgroup::init(&my_cgroup, "cpu")?;
println!(
    "The current CPU shares in `my-cgroup` control group is {}",
    my_cpu_cgroup.get_value::<u64>("cpu.shares")
);

Please, find more examples in the documentation.
