+ Provides enforcement of process number limits in the scope of a
+ cgroup. Any attempt to fork more processes than is allowed in the
+ cgroup will fail. PIDs are fundamentally a global resource because it
+ is fairly trivial to reach PID exhaustion before you reach even a
+ conservative kmemcg limit. As a result, it is possible to grind a
+ system to halt without being limited by other cgroup policies. The
+ PIDs cgroup subsystem is designed to stop this from happening.
+
+ It should be noted that organisational operations (such as attaching
+ to a cgroup hierarchy will *not* be blocked by the PIDs subsystem),
+ since the PIDs limit only affects a process's ability to fork, not to
+ attach to a cgroup.
