NAME
       cgclear - unload the cgroup filesystem


SYNOPSIS
       cgclear [-e] [-l <filename>] [-L <directory>] [...]


DESCRIPTION
       Without  parameters,  this command moves all the tasks inside the various cgroups to the root
       cgroup, deletes all the cgroups and finally unmounts the cgroup filesystem from the system.

       If one or more config files are specified, only groups defined in the config  files  are  re‐
       moved.  The  files are processed in reverse order, i.e. the last file on command line is pro‐
       cessed first, so cgclear can have the same command line arguments  as  appropriate  cgconfig‐‐
       parser.


       -l, --load=<filename>
              specifies  the  config file to read. This option can be used multiple times and can be
              mixed with -L option.


       -L, --load-directory=<directory>
              specifies the directory, which is searched for configuration files. All files in  this
              directory will be processed in alphabetical order as they were specified by -l option.
              This option can be used multiple times and can be mixed with -l option.


       -e     specifies that only empty groups should be removed. If a group  defined  in  a  config
              file  has  tasks inside or has a subgroup, it won't be removed. This option works only
              with -l or -L options.
