Description Jeremy Harris 2014-05-02 13:19:20 UTC
Description of problem:
  Specifically, there is nothing on handles or cgroups.  The See-Also doc site (http://lartc.org) has not at all on cgroups.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_64

  The tc manpage last line is:
"iproute2                       16 December 2001                          TC(8)"

How reproducible:
  Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Attempt to learn how stuff works
2.  Fail
3.

Actual results:
  No Info

Expected results:
  In the "tc" manpage: See-Also links, or embedded info, for specifics for all the available filters.

  A Resource Management Guide chapter on tc would also be good.

Additional info:
  There's a link in the reverse direction, from cgroups to tc, in the Resource_Management_Guide (section 3.8: net_cls), which suggests the tc manpage.
