[PATCH 2/5] cpuset: rebind numa vma mempolicy [PATCH 6/5] cpuset: rebind numa vma mempolicy fix aka cpuset-rebind-numa-vma-mempolicy.patch cpuset-rebind-numa-vma-mempolicy-fix.patch So far as I can tell, nothing is actually broken with this pair of patches. My cpuset function and stress tests still passed. But they are too hacky^W non-deterministic. -- I won't rest till it's the best ... Programmer, Linux Scalability Paul Jackson 1.925.600.0401
