^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
_this_ is what cpuset has been missing IMO
I think cpuset v2 should allow empty value in cpuset.cpus (not only
default but also as a reset (to the default)) which would implicitely
mean using whatever CPUs were passed from parent(s).
Does that make sense to you too?
Thus the patch(es) seems to need to be extended to handle a case when
empty cpuset.cpus is assigned but no cpuset.cpus.exclusive are
specified neither.
Thanks,
Michal
