-[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-cgroup\fP \fIfwid\fP
-Match corresponding cgroup for this packet.
+[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-path\fP \fIpath\fP
+Match cgroup2 membership.
-Can be used in the OUTPUT chain to assign particular firewall
-policies for aggregated task/jobs on the system. This allows
-for more fine-grained firewall policies that only match for a
-subset of the system's processes. fwid is the maker set through
-the net_cls cgroup's id.
+Each socket is associated with the v2 cgroup of the creating process.
+This matches packets coming from or going to all sockets in the
+sub-hierarchy of the specified path. The path should be relative to
+the root of the cgroup2 hierarchy.
+.TP
+[\fB!\fP] \fB\-\-cgroup\fP \fIclassid\fP
+Match cgroup net_cls classid.
-\fBIMPORTANT\fP: when being used in the INPUT chain, the cgroup
-matcher is currently only of limited functionality, meaning it
-will only match on packets that are processed for local sockets
-through early socket demuxing. Therefore, general usage on the
-INPUT chain is disadviced unless the implications are well
-understood.
+classid is the marker set through the cgroup net_cls controller. This
+option and \-\-path can't be used together.
