[PATCH] CPUSETS: add mems to basic usage documentation

From: Simon Horman
Date: Fri Mar 30 2007 - 00:11:47 EST


It seems that there must be at least one node in mems
and at least one CPU in cpus in order to be able to assign
tasks to a cpuset. This makes sense. And I think it would
also make sense to include a mems setting in the basic usage
section of the documentation.

I also wonder if something logged to dmsg, explaining why
a write failed, would be a good enhancement. I ended up having
rummage arround in cpuset.c in order to work out why my
configuration was failing.
