This could be done with memory nodes too - a vma can specify its memory policy, so binding individual files to nodes shouldn't be hard. > > In future there will be more handlers like CPU and disk that can be > easily embeded into this container infrastructure. I think that at least the userspace API for adding more handlers would need to be defined before actually committing a container patch, even if the kernel code isn't yet extensible. The CKRM/RG interface is a good start towards this.
