proj/gentoo: Initial commit
This commit represents a new era for Gentoo: Storing the gentoo-x86 tree in Git, as converted from CVS. This commit is the start of the NEW history. Any historical data is intended to be grafted onto this point. Creation process: 1. Take final CVS checkout snapshot 2. Remove ALL ChangeLog* files 3. Transform all Manifests to thin 4. Remove empty Manifests 5. Convert all stale $Header$/$Id$ CVS keywords to non-expanded Git $Id$ 5.1. Do not touch files with -kb/-ko keyword flags. Signed-off-by: Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> X-Thanks: Alec Warner <antarus@gentoo.org> - did the GSoC 2006 migration tests X-Thanks: Robin H.

+.TH CPULIMIT "8" "July 2006" "cpulimit" "System Management"
+.SH NAME
+cpulimit -- limits the CPU usage of a process
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B cpulimit
+\fITARGET \fR[\fIOPTIONS\fR...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.P
+\fITARGET \fRmust be exactly one of these:
+.TP
+\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-pid\fR=\fIN\fR
+pid of the process
+.TP
+\fB\-e\fR, \fB\-\-exe\fR=\fIFILE\fR
+name of the executable program file
+.TP
+\fB\-P\fR, \fB\-\-path\fR=\fIPATH\fR
+absolute path name of the executable program file
+.P
+\fIOPTIONS\fR
+.TP
+\fB\-l\fR, \fB\-\-limit\fR=\fIN\fR
+percentage of CPU allowed from 0 to 100 (mandatory)
+.TP
+\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR
+show control statistics
+.TP
+\fB\-z\fR, \fB\-\-lazy\fR
+exit if there is no suitable target process, or if it dies
+.TP
+\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
+display this help and exit
+.SH EXAMPLES
+Assuming you have started \fB`foo \-\-bar`\fR and you find out with \fItop\fR(1) or
+\fIps\fR(1) that this process uses all your CPU time you can either
+.TP
+\[sh] \fBcpulimit \-e foo \-l 50\fR
+limits the CPU usage of the process by acting on the executable program file
+(note: the argument "\-\-bar" is omitted)
+.TP
+\[sh] \fBcpulimit \-p 1234 \-l 50\fR
+limits the CPU usage of the process by acting on its PID, as shown by
+\fIps\fR(1)
+.TP
+\[sh] \fBcpulimit \-P /usr/bin/foo \-l 50\fR
+same as \fI\-e\fR but uses the absolute path name
