Hey,

Great to see that you are working on the documentation part. Have you given
a try to test the CPUSET features in the kernel with the recently added
tests from LTP(
http://ltp.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ltp/ltp/testcases/kernel/controllers/cpuset/)
? It would be great if you help us in improving them further.
