Subject: [PATCH-next] cgroup/cpuset: Fix incorrect CPU accounting with parent's effective_xcpus expansion
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 11:26:08 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028152608.648427-1-longman@redhat.com> (raw)

Commit ec0254b9eb49 ("cgroup/cpuset: Release invalid isolated CPUs with
a shrunk root partition parent") fixes incorrect isolated_cpus accounting
when contraction of a parent's effective_xcpus can cause a child partition
to lose isolated CPUs. Expansion of parent's effective_cpus can also allow
a child partition to gain more effective_xcpus. However, the current code
doesn't handle this case correctly leading to incorrect effective_cpus
and isolated_cpus accounting. Fix that by looking for this possible
expansion of effective_xcpus and perform the proper accounting action.

New test cases are added to test this effective_xcpus expansion scenarios.
