It's not allowed to clear masks of a cpuset if there're tasks in it, but it's broken: # mkdir /cgroup/sub # echo 0 > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.cpus # echo 0 > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.mems # echo $$ > /cgroup/sub/tasks # echo > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.cpus (should fail) This bug was introduced by commit 88fa523bff295f1d60244a54833480b02f775152 ("cpuset: allow to move tasks to empty cpusets").
