Hi i have a problem with cgroups and LXCFS on LXC with AlmaLinux 8 on Container.
Making container with almalinux 9 does not have this problem.

Im using AlmaLinux 9.4 on Host.

When i make a limit in /var/lib/lxc/almalinux8/config

lxc.cgroup2.memory.max = 10G

Changes does not apply on container.

When i stop LXCFS and restart CT limit works.
It works when i apply limit after start using: lxc-cgroup -n almalinux8 memory.max 10G

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create Container with AlmaLinux 8
  2. Apply memory limit on /var/lib/lxc/almalinux8/config
  3. Start and attach to container, free -h show memory on Host

Does anoyone have similar problem or i am just dump?
