The patch titled cpuset: allow a larger buffer for writes to cpuset files has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was cpuset-allow-a-larger-buffer-for-writes-to-cpuset-files.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: cpuset: allow a larger buffer for writes to cpuset files From: "Paul Menage" <menage@xxxxxxxxxx> When using fake NUMA setup, the number of memory nodes can greatly exceed the number of CPUs. So the current limit in cpuset_common_file_write() is insufficient.
