So. I see cpusets as a higher level API/mechanism and cpu_isolated_map as lower
level mechanism that actually makes kernel aware of what's isolated what's not.
Kind of like sched domain/cpuset relationship. ie cpusets affect sched domains
but scheduler does not use cpusets dir
Hi Peter,
Sorry for delay in reply.
Please, wrap your emails at 78 - most mailers can do this.
