We hope so.
The cpuset-aware-writeback patches were explicitly written to hide the bug which Peter's patches hopefully address. They hence remove our best way of confirming that Peter's patches fix the problem which you've observed in a proper fashion.
Until we've confirmed that the NFS problem is nailed, I wouldn't want to merge cpuset-aware-writeback. I'm hoping to be able to do that with fake-numa on x86-64 but haven't got onto it yet. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
