Description-en: control and monitor control groups (PAM)
Control Groups (cgroups) provide a mechanism for aggregating/partitioning sets
of tasks, and all their future children, into hierarchical groups with
specialized behaviour.
.
libcgroup allows one to manipulate, control, administrate and monitor cgroups
and the associated controllers.
.
This package contains the PAM module to move a user session into an existing
cgroup by attempting to match uid and gid against the defined cgroup rules
configuration.
