Hi Ingo, Peter,

A gentle ping on this sched/cache fix.

v4 carries Chen Yu’s Reviewed-by and Tested-by and only updates the
comment and commit description relative to v3.

Are there any remaining concerns or additional tests needed before this
can be picked up?


Tim and I are working on v2 prctl support for cache-aware scheduling,
and we picked your patch with minor modifications into our internal branch
because, with prctl introduced, the code needs to deal with several race conditions
including the footprint one in your patch. Do you mind if we send that patch set with yours
embedded(with your authorship)?

thanks,
Chenyu
