Subject: [patch 2/2] cpusets: add interleave_over_allowed option
Adds a new 'interleave_over_allowed' option to cpusets.
When a task with an MPOL_INTERLEAVE memory policy is attached to a cpuset
with this option set, the interleaved nodemask becomes the cpuset's
mems_allowed. When the cpuset's mems_allowed changes, the interleaved
nodemask for all tasks with MPOL_INTERLEAVE memory policies is also
updated to be the new mems_allowed nodemask.
This allows applications to specify that they want to interleave over all
nodes that they are allowed to access. This set of nodes can be changed
at any time via the cpuset interface and each individual memory policy is
updated to reflect the changes for all attached tasks when this option is
set.

+1.8 What is interleave_over_allowed ?
+-------------------------------------
+
+Tasks may specify a memory policy of MPOL_INTERLEAVE with the desired
+result of interleaving memory allocations over their set of allowed
+nodes.
+
+Since the set of allowed nodes may change via cpusets (through the
+'mems' file) without knowledge to the application, a mechanism needs
+to exist such that applications can specify that they desire to
+interleave over all nodes to which they have access. This avoids a
+constant get_mempolicy() and set_mempolicy() loop to update an
+interleaved memory policy that respects both its cpuset's mems_allowed
+and the intent of the application.
+
+When interleave_over_allowed is set, all attached tasks with
+MPOL_INTERLEAVE memory policies automatically interleave over all
+available cpuset nodes regardless of what nodemask was passed to
+set_mempolicy(). When the cpuset's mems change, all attached tasks
+with interleaved policies automatically gets updated with the new
+nodemask.
+
+The value of 'interleave_over_allowed' is inherited from a cpuset's
+parent upon creation.
