From a73456f37b9dbc917398387d0cba926b4455b70f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li Zefan Date: Wed, 5 Jun 2013 17:15:59 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] cpuset: re-structure update_cpumask() a bit Check if cpus_allowed is to be changed before calling validate_change(). This won't change any behavior, but later it will allow us to do this: # mkdir /cpuset/child # echo $$ > /cpuset/child/tasks /* empty cpuset */ # echo > /cpuset/child/cpuset.cpus /* do nothing, won't fail */ Without this patch, the last operation will fail.
