Subject: [PATCH] protect migration/%d etc from sched_setaffinity
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2003 18:46:05 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030731224604.GA24887@tsunami.ccur.com> (raw)

Lock out users from changing the cpu affinity of those per-cpu system
daemons which cannot survive such a change, such as migration/%d.

Passes basic handtest of sched_setaffinity(2) on various locked and
unlocked processes on a i386, otherwise untested except by eyeball.

Except for one line in i386, no arch needed any changes to support
this patch.

Joe
