H A Dmempolicy.cdiff 8bccd85ffbaf8ff1448d1235fa6594e207695531 Sat Oct 29 20:16:59 CDT 2005 Christoph Lameter <clameter@engr.sgi.com> [PATCH] Implement sys_* do_* layering in the memory policy layer.

- Do a separation between do_xxx and sys_xxx functions. sys_xxx functions
take variable sized bitmaps from user space as arguments. do_xxx functions
take fixed sized nodemask_t as arguments and may be used from inside the
kernel. Doing so simplifies the initialization code. There is no
fs = kernel_ds assumption anymore.

- Split up get_nodes into get_nodes (which gets the node list) and
contextualize_policy which restricts the nodes to those accessible
to the task and updates cpusets.

- Add comments explaining limitations of bind policy
