Hallo, when I create a cpuset manually according to cpuset(7), configuring a subset of cpus and mems of the machine for it, bind the current shell to this cpuset, and execute lstopo, then I expect that the listed topology shows only the resources of the cpuset. This corresponds to the default setting of flags of the topology context (without HWLOC_TOPOLOGY_FLAG_WHOLE_SYSTEM).
This works as expected on a machine running SLES10SP3. Repeating the same procedure on a similar machine running SLES11SP1 fails. lstopo always lists the resources of the whole machine, and ignores the cpuset constraint. Other things like e.g. numatools report the expected constraint. Please let me know how I can assist you in alayzing the problem.
