So changing the uses in > cpuset_can_attach to GFP_ATOMIC would solve this concern, then? It would introduce an additional concern. GFP_ATOMIC is bad, for a number of reasons. The main one of which is that it is vastly less reliable than GFP_KERNEL. And making the cpuset code less reliable is a regression, no? Please try to find a better solution. _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
