[PATCH v9 5/7] cpuset: Expose cpus.effective and mems.effective on cgroup v2 root

From: Waiman Long
Date: Tue May 29 2018 - 09:43:36 EST


Because of the fact that setting the "cpuset.sched.domain_root" in
a direct child of root can remove CPUs from the root's effective CPU
list, it makes sense to know what CPUs are left in the root cgroup for
scheduling purpose. So the "cpuset.cpus.effective" control file is now
exposed in the v2 cgroup root.

For consistency, the "cpuset.mems.effective" control file is exposed
as well.
