v2:
- Add two fix patches for problems reported by sashiko and Guopeng.
This is another series of 3 fix patches for bugs in cpuset partition
code.
Waiman Long (3):
cgroup/cpuset: Fix incorrect CPU accounting with parent's
effective_xcpus expansion
cgroup/cpuset: Recompute effective cpumask in update_cpumasks_hier()
after calling update_parent_effective_cpumask()
cgroup/cpuset: Do housekeeping check when isolated child with root
parent may get more xcpus

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.

It is reported by sashiko that calling update_parent_effective_cpumask()
may clobber tmp->new_cpus when update_sibling_cpumasks() needs to be
called due to possible change in the parent's effective_cpus value.
Therefore the new effective cpumask has to be recomputed after calling
update_parent_effective_cpumask() to get a correct value back into
tmp->new_cpus.

It is reported by sashiko and Guopeng that when an isolated child with
root parent gets more isolated CPUs from the expansion of the parent's
effective_xcpus, it is possible that all the active housekeeping CPUs
may be gone. So a prstate_housekeeping_conflict() should be performed
when that happens. Add the check to make sure that we can't exhaust
all the active housekeeping CPUs.
Test cases are added to the NOHZ_FULL_TEST_MATRIX of test_cpuset_prs.sh
to test that.

Applied 1-3 to cgroup/for-7.4-fixes with the following tags added:
Reviewed-by: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@kylinos.cn>
Tested-by: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@kylinos.cn>
Two issues I noticed:
- Three of patch 1's new TEST_MATRIX rows end with A1 as a single-CPU
root partition, which has no sched domain, so they fail the ISOLCPUS
check when the script runs with -v.
- The comment at the end of the "partcmd_update w/o newmask" block in
update_parent_effective_cpumask() still says there is no need to
adjust the parent's effective_cpus. Patch 1's new expansion branch now
does exactly that.
Thanks.
