Good explanation - thanks. In short, the proposal was to use the task partition defined by cpusets to define CFS task-groups, until the real process containers are available. Or, I see in the next message, Ingo responding favorably to your alternative, using task uid's to partition the tasks into CFS task-groups. Yeah, Ingo's preference for using uid's (or gid's ??) sounds right to me - a sustainable API. Wouldn't want to be adding a cpuset API for a single 2.6.N release. ... gid's -- why not? -- I won't rest till it's the best ...
