[PATCH v2 08/10] cpuset: allow to keep tasks in empty cpusets
From: Li Zefan
Date: Wed Jun 05 2013 - 05:17:59 EST
To achieve this:
- We call update_tasks_cpumask/nodemask() for empty cpusets when
hotplug happens, instead of moving tasks out of them.
- When a cpuset's masks are changed by writing cpuset.cpus/mems,
we also update tasks in child cpusets which are empty.
v2:
- drop rcu_read_lock before calling update_task_nodemask() and
update_task_cpumask(), instead of using workqueue.
- add documentation in include/linux/cgroup.h
