How do you think ? I think a hierarchy must have the same config.
BTW, Kame:

Look again (I forgot myself when I first replied to you)
Only in the root cgroup those files get registered.
So shouldn't be a problem, because children won't even
be able to see them.

Do you agree with this ?


agreed.


Actually it is the other way around, following previous suggestions...

The root cgroup does *not* get those files registered, since we don't intend to do any kernel memory limitation for it. The others get it.
Given that, I will proceed writing some code to respect parent cgroup's
hierarchy.
