1 | CPU Accounting Controller | ||
2 | ------------------------- | ||
3 | |||
4 | The CPU accounting controller is used to group tasks using cgroups and | ||
5 | account the CPU usage of these groups of tasks. | ||
6 | |||
7 | The CPU accounting controller supports multi-hierarchy groups. An accounting | ||
8 | group accumulates the CPU usage of all of its child groups and the tasks | ||
9 | directly present in its group. | ||
10 | |||
11 | Accounting groups can be created by first mounting the cgroup filesystem. | ||
12 | |||
13 | # mkdir /cgroups | ||
14 | # mount -t cgroup -ocpuacct none /cgroups | ||
15 | |||
16 | With the above step, the initial or the parent accounting group | ||
17 | becomes visible at /cgroups. At bootup, this group includes all the | ||
18 | tasks in the system. /cgroups/tasks lists the tasks in this cgroup. | ||
19 | /cgroups/cpuacct.usage gives the CPU time (in nanoseconds) obtained by | ||
20 | this group which is essentially the CPU time obtained by all the tasks | ||
21 | in the system. | ||
22 | |||
23 | New accounting groups can be created under the parent group /cgroups. | ||
24 | |||
25 | # cd /cgroups | ||
26 | # mkdir g1 | ||
27 | # echo $$ > g1 | ||
28 | |||
29 | The above steps create a new group g1 and move the current shell | ||
30 | process (bash) into it. CPU time consumed by this bash and its children | ||
31 | can be obtained from g1/cpuacct.usage and the same is accumulated in | ||
32 | /cgroups/cpuacct.usage also. | ||
