                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For cgroups, we have libcgroup library. Not many people like to use it 
though as cgroup is exported as a filesystem and they prefer to use normal
libc api to traverse and configure cgroups (Instead of going through
another library). Some examples include libvrit, systemd.

Thanks
