I have a few patches in cgroups/for-4.1 as well that export information about isolated and nohz_full cpus in /sys/devices/system/cpu/ > Rik, what's the change you're proposing that's similar to this one? Thanks! I don't have this particular one, and I like it. I know there are use cases where isolcpus= without nohz_full= makes sense, but I cannot think of the reverse.
