Thanks for adding the documentation, now on to more critical questions

1. Any reasons for not using cgroupstats?
2. Is there a user space test application to test this code. IIUC,
I need to write a program that uses eventfd(2) and then passes
the eventfd descriptor and thresold to cgroup.*event* file and
then the program will get notified when the threshold is reached?
