# cgroups
To avoid resource contention between containers and host daemons in Kubernetes, the kubelet components can use cgroups to limit resource usage.
## Enforcing Node Allocatable
You can use `kubelet_enforce_node_allocatable` to set node allocatable enforcement.
```yaml
# A comma separated list of levels of node allocatable enforcement to be enforced by kubelet.
kubelet_enforce_node_allocatable: "pods"
# kubelet_enforce_node_allocatable: "pods,kube-reserved"
# kubelet_enforce_node_allocatable: "pods,kube-reserved,system-reserved"
```
Note that to enforce kube-reserved or system-reserved, `kube_reserved_cgroups` or `system_reserved_cgroups` needs to be specified respectively.
Here is an example:
```yaml
kubelet_enforce_node_allocatable: "pods,kube-reserved,system-reserved"
# Set kube_reserved to true to run kubelet and container-engine daemons in a dedicated cgroup.
# This is required if you want to enforce limits on the resource usage of these daemons.
# It is not required if you just want to make resource reservations (kube_memory_reserved, kube_cpu_reserved, etc.)
kube_reserved: true
kube_reserved_cgroups_for_service_slice: kube.slice
kube_reserved_cgroups: "/{{ kube_reserved_cgroups_for_service_slice }}"
kube_memory_reserved: 256Mi
kube_cpu_reserved: 100m
# kube_ephemeral_storage_reserved: 2Gi
# kube_pid_reserved: "1000"
# Reservation for master hosts
kube_master_memory_reserved: 512Mi
kube_master_cpu_reserved: 200m
# kube_master_ephemeral_storage_reserved: 2Gi
# kube_master_pid_reserved: "1000"
# Set to true to reserve resources for system daemons
system_reserved: true
system_reserved_cgroups_for_service_slice: system.slice
system_reserved_cgroups: "/{{ system_reserved_cgroups_for_service_slice }}"
system_memory_reserved: 512Mi
system_cpu_reserved: 500m
# system_ephemeral_storage_reserved: 2Gi
# system_pid_reserved: "1000"
# Reservation for master hosts
system_master_memory_reserved: 256Mi
system_master_cpu_reserved: 250m
# system_master_ephemeral_storage_reserved: 2Gi
# system_master_pid_reserved: "1000"
```
After the setup, the cgroups hierarchy is as follows:
```bash
/ (Cgroups Root)
├── kubepods.slice
│ ├── ...
│ ├── kubepods-besteffort.slice
│ ├── kubepods-burstable.slice
│ └── ...
├── kube.slice
│ ├── ...
│ ├── {{container_manager}}.service
│ ├── kubelet.service
│ └── ...
├── system.slice
│ └── ...
└── ...
```
