Anyone know where can I find some up-to-date documentation for the cgroupv1 memory resource controller?

The docs.kernel.org page about the cgroupv1 memory resource controller contains the note at the top:

This document is hopelessly outdated and it asks for a complete rewrite. It still contains a useful information so we are keeping it here but make sure to check the current code if you need a deeper understanding.

I want to get a sense of what this controller does and how to use this specific controller without delving into the linux source code.

  • The reason I'd prefer to use cgroupv1 over cgroupv2 is because for my use-case I don't want to have to restart the nodes in order to spin up the cgroupv2 controllers, after disabling cgroupv1 in the bootloader settings (by setting the 'cgroup_no_v1' kernel parameter, see kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html).

  • What happens if you try to mount cgroupv2 though and use that instead? Commented Jul 12, 2022 at 8:29
  • Please clarify your specific problem or provide additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. Commented Jul 19, 2022 at 10:32
