Subject: [PLPA users] PLPA_SYSFS_MOUNT
From: Bert Wesarg (bert.wesarg_at_[hidden])

Hi Jeff,

to the subject, I think this should be protected by either a configure
option, or, if you're lazy, by PLPA_STANDALONE. I think this is only a
test option, and has no value and can lead to unexpected results in
application, which use the plpa.

btw: do you know any outside projects (beside ompi) which uses the
plpa? I have encountered the htop [1] project (a modern top clone),
which uses the plpa to set the affinity mask of a project with a
simple UI. I will try to use the topology interface, to give more
selection options, like 'only on socket 0' and so on.

bye
