Message-Id: <200906161646.50305.knikanth@suse.de> Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:46:50 +0530 From: Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@...e.de> To: Paul Menage <menage@...gle.com> Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: cpusets: document adding/removing cpus to cpuset elaborately Writing a pid to the file, tasks adds that task to that cgroup/cpuset. But to add a cpu/mem to a cpuset, the new list of cpus should be written to the cpuset.mems file which would replace the old list of cpus. Make this clearer in the documentation.
