	config KERNEL_MEMCG
		bool "Memory Resource Controller for Control Groups"
		default n
		depends on KERNEL_RESOURCE_COUNTERS
		help
		  Provides a memory resource controller that manages both anonymous
		  memory and page cache. (See Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt)

		  Note that setting this option increases fixed memory overhead
		  associated with each page of memory in the system. By this,
		  20(40)bytes/PAGE_SIZE on 32(64)bit system will be occupied by memory
		  usage tracking struct at boot. Total amount of this is printed out
		  at boot.

		  Only enable when you're ok with these trade offs and really
		  sure you need the memory resource controller. Even when you enable
		  this, you can set "cgroup_disable=memory" at your boot option to
		  disable memory resource controller and you can avoid overheads.
		  (and lose benefits of memory resource controller)

		  This config option also selects MM_OWNER config option, which
		  could in turn add some fork/exit overhead.

	config KERNEL_MEMCG_SWAP
		bool "Memory Resource Controller Swap Extension"
		default n
		depends on KERNEL_MEMCG
		help
		  Add swap management feature to memory resource controller. When you
		  enable this, you can limit mem+swap usage per cgroup. In other words,
		  when you disable this, memory resource controller has no cares to
		  usage of swap...a process can exhaust all of the swap. This extension
		  is useful when you want to avoid exhaustion swap but this itself
		  adds more overheads and consumes memory for remembering information.
		  Especially if you use 32bit system or small memory system, please
		  be careful about enabling this. When memory resource controller
		  is disabled by boot option, this will be automatically disabled and
		  there will be no overhead from this. Even when you set this config=y,
		  if boot option "swapaccount=0" is set, swap will not be accounted.
		  Now, memory usage of swap_cgroup is 2 bytes per entry. If swap page
		  size is 4096bytes, 512k per 1Gbytes of swap.

	config KERNEL_MEMCG_SWAP_ENABLED
		bool "Memory Resource Controller Swap Extension enabled by default"
		default n
		depends on KERNEL_MEMCG_SWAP
		help
		  Memory Resource Controller Swap Extension comes with its price in
		  a bigger memory consumption. General purpose distribution kernels
		  which want to enable the feature but keep it disabled by default
		  and let the user enable it by swapaccount boot command line
		  parameter should have this option unselected.
		  For those who want to have the feature enabled by default should
		  select this option (if, for some reason, they need to disable it
		  then swapaccount=0 does the trick).


	config KERNEL_MEMCG_KMEM
		bool "Memory Resource Controller Kernel Memory accounting (EXPERIMENTAL)"
		default n
		depends on KERNEL_MEMCG
		help
		  The Kernel Memory extension for Memory Resource Controller can limit
		  the amount of memory used by kernel objects in the system. Those are
		  fundamentally different from the entities handled by the standard
		  Memory Controller, which are page-based, and can be swapped. Users of
		  the kmem extension can use it to guarantee that no group of processes
		  will ever exhaust kernel resources alone.

		  designated cpu.

	menuconfig KERNEL_CGROUP_SCHED

			  set are considered to be unconstrained and will run with no
			  restriction.
			  See tip/Documentation/scheduler/sched-bwc.txt for more information.

		config KERNEL_RT_GROUP_SCHED
			bool "Group scheduling for SCHED_RR/FIFO"
			default n
			help
			  This feature lets you explicitly allocate real CPU bandwidth
			  to task groups. If enabled, it will also make it impossible to
			  schedule realtime tasks for non-root users until you allocate
			  realtime bandwidth for them.

	config KERNEL_BLK_CGROUP
		bool "Block IO controller"
		default y
		help
		  Generic block IO controller cgroup interface. This is the common
		  cgroup interface which should be used by various IO controlling
		  policies.

		  Currently, CFQ IO scheduler uses it to recognize task groups and
		  control disk bandwidth allocation (proportional time slice allocation)
		  to such task groups. It is also used by bio throttling logic in
		  block layer to implement upper limit in IO rates on a device.

		  This option only enables generic Block IO controller infrastructure.
		  One needs to also enable actual IO controlling logic/policy. For
		  enabling proportional weight division of disk bandwidth in CFQ, set
		  CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=y; for enabling throttling policy, set
		  CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING=y.

		  POSIX variant of message queues is a part of IPC. In POSIX message

		  and can be mounted somewhere if you want to do filesystem
		  operations on message queues.
