Yes, that way only the hierarchy hosting cpusets takes the hit of double-locking. cpuset_subsys->create/destroy can take this additional lock inside cpuset.c. -- Regards, vatsa _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
