Problem Details: The following series adds a "cgroup.procs" file to each cgroup that reports unique tgids rather than pids, and allows all threads in a threadgroup to be atomically moved to a new cgroup. The subsystem "attach" interface is modified to support attaching whole threadgroups at a time, which could introdu...
