I've attatched copies of the patch that Michael referred to in his email so you
can see where we're going with this. I think that we have (at least the
beginnings) of what you've described. The patch allows processes to bind to
specific CPU's (via bitmask) and/or specific memory blocks. You can set these
up to complement each other, or to something completely arbitrary (for
debugging purposes, etc). It also includes the beginnings of very simple
topology info with some simple arch-independent calls (cpu_to_node,
node_to_cpu, node_to_memblk, etc.) Of course these do require some lower level
hooks for each architecture that wants to use them, but they should be simple
calls. I've been sidetracked on other things for about a month, but I plan on
getting back to this patch ASAP (this week), and porting it forward to the
latest version. It is currently only up to 2.5.14.

If anyone has any suggestions for other features, changes, comments, flames,
ANYTHING, please let me know.

See above ;)
