I would like to announce (a bit prematurely) my kernel patch for support of pset - processor sets on Linux/SMP. The implementation is based largely on SGI's implementation of pset, and the sysmp() system call.
I have what seems to be a working kernel patch (I need till the end of this weekend to make sure it is against the latest 2.1 and against 2.0), as well as a small user-space library for the system call, and a few user utilities.
I have tested it minimally, and would like volunteers to test it. I don't think it will cause any damage, but I can't make the claim that it will not. This is my first foray into a lot of arenas (kernel, Makefiles, shared libs) so there is still a pretty good list of things todo. This has been a year in the (very slow) works. School and work keep creeping up.
I will have a formal announcement and FTP available, hopefully by Sunday.
If you are interested, just for my own amusement, please feel free to let me know. I will need some help to make it finished, and possibly get it ready for 2.3 development.
