Resource Containers Project

Thank you, I have got Mr.Edward Napierala written a eMail. So I hope he will sent me links or the Code by Mail.

cheers Darko
 
Sorry, I think I've missed your mail somehow. Anyway: the code is not yet in 9-CURRENT; expect patches somewhere in January, and commits to CURRENT some time after that.
 
Oh thank you :)

But this time they Patches will be integrated? So if FreeBSD 9 RELEASE will be available later, I could calculate with this feature?

warm regards
Darko
 
Hmm May 2011, that should be to late for me :( Because my Startup begins to start on the first January 2011. So first Jails should be sold on February with selected few experienced customers on my BETA Program.
If I would compile the 9 CURRENT without SSL, Kerberos, SSH, just minimized. Would it be a very high risk, to deploy them on a productive environment?
 
Well, it got delayed somewhat. There are two outstanding bugs I want to fix before I release it:

1. When running userstat or jailstat, it sometimes panics. I know where the problem is and I intend to fix it today or tomorrow.

2. The way %CPU is measured is FUBAR. I _think_ I know how to do this properly. If it doesn't work, I'll release it with %CPU broken and fix it later.

What is userstat? Something like vmstat, only for resources, displaying the most important ones. Looks like this:

Code: 
$ userstat
USER    %CPU    LIMIT   RSS     LIMIT   VMEM    LIMIT   SWAP    LIMIT
root    0       -       19M     -       198M    -       106M    -
trasz   6       -       24M     50M     159M    -       112M    -
 
There a little update for this project is covered in an upcomming status report. I should release it in the beginning of the next week. Stay tuned :)
 
@dennylin93: I think so. I'm not sure about SysV IPC limits, though - they change ABI, so tools like ipcs(1) need to be rebuilt.
 
Hello all :)

So now, what's the current status? I hope it is in CURRENT completely now. Is there some Documentation for activating and configuring available? I have provided a box with FreeBSD 9 CURRENT for testing yesterday.

kind regards
Darko
 
It's not yet in CURRENT. Help with testing is welcome. Patch is here: http://people.freebsd.org/~trasz/rctl-20110214.diff. To use it, you'll need to add

Code: 
options CONTAINERS
options RCTL

to your kernel config file (actually, patch should already add these to GENERIC) and rebuild the kernel. Note that %CPU is still off, and it's a known problem. The rest should work.
 
I don't think any code from this project has landed in CURRENT yet...or at least I didn't notice.
 
Hello there,
This project seems very promising, is there any code commited to upstream ?

Trasz@ , did you find a way to fix %CPU?

Thanks
David.
 
@release: Testing shows it works, so I plan to merge it this weekend, or the weekend after. %CPU turns out to be much more complicated than I thought, so that will have to wait.
