There may be an opportunity here, I agree. Sorry for not realizing what you were getting at before.
I might not have time to study the details of this yet, and may wait until it is a bit clearer to me which other resource/container/grouping thingies are closer to final acceptance, but there are a few neurons off in one corner of my brain that have long suspected that a single chunk of kernel pseudo file system code, layered on vfs, should serve these various mechanisms, including cpusets. It would be good to persue this common technology infrastructure -before- the kernel to user API of these other thingies gets frozen, as the details of just what this common code can do conveniently might impact details of the kernel API presented to users.
