Subject: [PATCH V3 01/11] rtla: Add -C cgroup support
Date:   Tue,  6 Jun 2023 18:12:15 +0200
Message-Id: <cb051477331d292f17c08bf1d66f0e0384bbe5a5.1686066600.git.bristot@kernel.org>

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

The -C option sets a cgroup to the tracer's threads. If the -C option is
passed without arguments, the tracer's thread will inherit rtla's
cgroup. Otherwise, the threads will be placed on the cgroup passed
to the option.
