Subject: Re: [RFC][PATCH 00/10] Task watchers v2 Introduction

How might this play with Paul Menage's <menage@...gle.com> patch posted
earlier today on lkml:

  [RFC][PATCH 0/4] Generic container system

My cpuset_exit() call is getting popular - both you guys seem to have
designs on it.

Separate question - I guess that your task watcher mechanism, the
way it uses linker magic now, would not enable a loadable module
to plug into these various fork/exit/... hooks.  Is that right?

Such an ability for loadable modules to get callouts on fork/exit
would be useful to some ... it could also be a controversial ability.
