Ah. I think I misread your previous note to me on this...that's why my patch modifies init itself (it does not muck with the syscall in any way). I'll try this as soon as I have my 2.5 multiprocessor back. BTW: what are the plans for getting schedutils (and specifically taskset) into a normal 2.6-based distribution? Can I be reasonably sure that this will happen? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
