According to our recent changes (clarifications), we should be pinning
qemu's emulator processes using the<vcpu>   'cpuset' attribute in case
there is no<emulatorpin>   specified.  This however doesn't work
entirely as expected and this patch should resolve all the remaining
issues.

This patch actually duplicates the affinity setting on domain
process with sched_setaffinity.

Assume "cpuset" of<vcpu>  is specified, and no "<emulatorpin>".

qemuProcessInitCpuAffinity is excuted between the fork
and exec, with this patch, qemuProcessSetEmulatorAffinites
will set the affinity again using sched_setaffinity.

Cgroup setting is fine though, as there is no previous setting
with cgroup.

I'm wondering why the domain process is not pinned to
pCPUs specified "cpuset" of "<vcpu>" by qemuProcessInitCpuAffinity,
when<emulatorpin>  is not specified.

I'm glad you pointed it out.  To be honest, it took me quite a while to
see where this should be set to fix the problem with as few lines as
possible.  As Peter says, there is a mess with the pinning, cgroups and
affinities.

Right. I'd think it just need some re-orgnization, resolve duplicates
like this, and resort the logic.

Osier
