Name	Description
Primary parameters
numproc	Maximum number of processes and kernel-level threads allowed for this container.
numtcpsock	Maximum number of TCP sockets.
numothersock	Maximum number of non-TCP sockets (local sockets, UDP and other types of sockets).
vmguarpages	Memory allocation guarantee.
Secondary parameters
kmemsize	Size of unswappable kernel memory, allocated allocated for processes in this container.
tcpsndbuf	Total size of buffers used to send data over TCP network connections.
tcprcvbuf	Total size of buffers used to temporary store the data coming from TCP network connections.
othersockbuf	Total size of UNIX-domain socket buffers, UDP and other datagram protocol send buffers.
dgramrcvbuf	Receive buffers of UDP and other datagram protocols.
oomguarpages	The guaranteed amount of memory for the case the memory is “over-booked” (out-of-memory kill guarantee).
privvmpages	Memory allocation limit, in pages.
Auxiliary parameters
lockedpages	Process pages not allowed to be swapped out (pages locked by mlock(2)).
shmpages	Total size of shared memory (IPC, shared anonymous mappings and tmpfs objects), in pages.
physpages	Total number of RAM pages used by processes.
numfile	Number of open files.
numflock	Number of file locks.
numpty	Number of pseudo-terminals.
numsiginfo	Number of siginfo structures.
dcachesize	Total size of dentry and inode structures locked in memory.
numiptent	Number of NETFILTER (IP packet filtering) entries.
swappages	Amount of swap space to show in container.
