-

-	  "member"		Non-root member of a partition
-	  "root"		Partition root
-	  "root invalid"	Invalid partition root
-	  ==============	==============================
-
-	It is a partition root if the first 2 partition root conditions
-	above are true and at least one CPU from "cpuset.cpus" is
-	granted by the parent cgroup.
-
-	A partition root can become invalid if none of CPUs requested
-	in "cpuset.cpus" can be granted by the parent cgroup or the
-	parent cgroup is no longer a partition root itself.  In this
-	case, it is not a real partition even though the restriction
-	of the first partition root condition above will still apply.
-	The cpu affinity of all the tasks in the cgroup will then be
-	associated with CPUs in the nearest ancestor partition.
-
-	An invalid partition root can be transitioned back to a
-	real partition root if at least one of the requested CPUs
-	can now be granted by its parent.  In this case, the cpu
-	affinity of all the tasks in the formerly invalid partition
-	will be associated to the CPUs of the newly formed partition.
-	Changing the partition state of an invalid partition root to
-	"member" is always allowed even if child cpusets are present.
+	When set to "isolated", the CPUs in that partition root will
+	be in an isolated state without any load balancing from the
+	scheduler.  Tasks in such a partition must be explicitly bound
+	to each individual CPU.
+
+	"cpuset.cpus" must always be set up first before enabling
+	partition.  Unlike "member" whose "cpuset.cpus.effective" can
+	contain CPUs not in "cpuset.cpus", this can never happen with a
+	valid partition root.  In other words, "cpuset.cpus.effective"
+	is always a subset of "cpuset.cpus" for a valid partition root.
+
+	When a parent partition root cannot exclusively grant any of
+	the CPUs specified in "cpuset.cpus", "cpuset.cpus.effective"
+	becomes empty. If there are tasks in the partition root, the
+	partition root becomes invalid and "cpuset.cpus.effective"
+	is reset to that of the nearest non-empty ancestor.
+
+        Note that a task cannot be moved to a cgroup with empty
+        "cpuset.cpus.effective".
+
+	There are additional constraints on where a partition root can
+	be enabled ("root" or "isolated").  It can only be enabled in
+	a cgroup if all the following conditions are met.
+
+	1) The "cpuset.cpus" is non-empty and exclusive, i.e. they are
+	   not shared by any of its siblings.
+	2) The parent cgroup is a valid partition root.
+	3) The "cpuset.cpus" is a subset of parent's "cpuset.cpus".
+	4) There is no child cgroups with cpuset enabled.  This avoids
+	   cpu migrations of multiple cgroups simultaneously which can
+	   be problematic.
+
+	On read, the "cpuset.cpus.partition" file can show the following
+	values.
+
+	  ======================	==============================
+	  "member"			Non-root member of a partition
+	  "root"			Partition root
+	  "isolated"			Partition root without load balancing
+	  "root invalid (<reason>)"	Invalid partition root
+	  ======================	==============================
+
+        In the case of an invalid partition root, a descriptive string on
+        why the partition is invalid is included within parentheses.
+
+	Once becoming a partition root, changes to "cpuset.cpus"
+	is generally allowed as long as the cpu list is exclusive,
+	non-empty and is a superset of children's cpu lists.
+
+        The constraints of a valid partition root are as follows:
+
+        1) The parent cgroup is a valid partition root.
+        2) "cpuset.cpus.effective" is a subset of "cpuset.cpus"
+        3) "cpuset.cpus.effective" is non-empty when there are tasks
+           in the partition.
+
+	Changes to "cpuset.cpus" or cpu hotplug may cause the state
+	of a valid partition root to become invalid when one or more
+	constraints of a valid partition root are violated.  Therefore,
+	user space agents that manage partition roots should avoid
+	unnecessary changes to "cpuset.cpus" and always check the state
+	of "cpuset.cpus.partition" after making changes to make sure
+	that the partitions are functioning properly as expected.
+
+        Changing a partition root to "member" is always allowed.
+        If there are child partition roots underneath it, however,
+        they will be forced to be switched back to "member" too and
+        lose their partitions. So care must be taken to double check
+        for this condition before disabling a partition root.
+
+	Setting a cgroup to a valid partition root will take the CPUs
+	away from the effective CPUs of the parent partition.
+
+	A valid parent partition may distribute out all its CPUs to
+	its child partitions as long as it is not the root cgroup as
+	we need some house-keeping CPUs in the root cgroup.
+
+	An invalid partition is not a real partition even though some
+	internal states may still be kept.
+
+	An invalid partition root can be reverted back to a real
+	partition root if none of the constraints of a valid partition
+        root are violated.
+
+	Poll and inotify events are triggered whenever the state of
+	"cpuset.cpus.partition" changes.  That includes changes caused by
+	write to "cpuset.cpus.partition", cpu hotplug and other changes
+	that make the partition invalid.  This will allow user space
+	agents to monitor unexpected changes to "cpuset.cpus.partition"
+	without the need to do continuous polling.
