Hell no, we're not going to export sched domains, if kvm/qemu wants this its all in sysfs. The whole sched_domain stuff is a big enough pain as it is, exporting this and making it a sodding API is the worst thing ever. Whatever brainfart made you think this is needed anyway? sysfs contains the host topology, qemu can already create whatever guest topology you want (see the -smp and -numa arguments), so what gives? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
