Re-subjecting this thread...
Hmm. The WHOLE_SYSTEM flag is confusing. It's only defined in the docs in terms of negative logic.
Is it true that if you don't supply WHOLE_SYSTEM, then
- cpuset may not be equal to complete_cpuset
- cpuset is comprised only of PUs that you can bind to
- cpuset is already the logical AND of allowed_cpuset and online_cpuset
- (ditto for nodeset / complete_nodeset)
And if you *do* supply WHOLE_SYSTEM, then
- cpuset will be equal to complete_cpuset
- cpuset is not necessarily the logical AND of allowed_cpuset and online_cpuset
Is that correct?
