Name spaces and hierarchies are just implementation mechanisms - many interesting, entirely unrelated, solutions make use of them. What are the objects named, and what is the relation underlying the hierarchy? These must match up. The objects named in cpusets are subsets of a systems CPUs and Memory Nodes. The relation underlying the hierarchy is the subset relation on these sets: if one cpuset node is a descendent of another, then its CPUs and Memory Nodes are a subset of the others. What is the corresponding statement for CKRM? For CKRM to subsume cpusets, there must be an injective map from the above cpuset objects to CKRM objects, that preserves this subset relation on cpusets. -- I won't rest till it's the best ...
