28 sions needs to be specified as octal numbers e.g. -d 775.

31 -f, --fperm=mode
32 sets the permissions of the control groups parameters. The per‐
33 missions needs to be specified as octal numbers e.g. -f 775.
34 The value is not used as given because the current owner's per‐
35 missions are used as an umask (so 777 will set group and others
36 permissions to the owners permissions).

39 -g <controllers>:<path>

41 controllers and path is the relative path to control groups in

55 permissions to the owners permissions).
