@ -59,11 +59,10 @@ The cgroups for a subsystem are arranged in a
.IR hierarchy .
This hierarchy is defined by creating, removing, and
renaming subdirectories within the cgroup filesystem.
At each level of the hierarchy, attributes (e.g., limits) can be defined;
these attributes may govern or propagate
to child cgroups and their descendants in the hierarchy.
The limits, control, and accounting provided by cgroups are hierarchical.
At each level of the hierarchy, attributes (e.g., limits) can be defined.
The limits, control, and accounting provided by cgroups generally have
effect throughout the subhierarchy underneath the cgroup where the
attributes are defined.
Thus, for example, the limits placed on
a cgroup at a higher level in the hierarchy cannot be exceeded
by descendant cgroups.
