Subject: Re: [PATCH-next v3 02/11] cgroup/cpuset: Properly compute effective xcpus in update_parent_effective_cpumask()

> Since the introduction of cpuset.cpus.exclusive in commit
> e2ffe502ba45 ("cgroup/cpuset: Add cpuset.cpus.exclusive for v2"), a
> compute_effective_exclusive_cpumask() helper which is later renamed to
> compute_excpus() is added to compute the effective xcpus of a partition
> root. However update_parent_effective_cpumask() is not updated in all
> proper places to use the new helper to check if a given cpuset should
> remain a valid partition root. This can cause a cpuset to incorrectly
> remain a valid partition root even if no effective xcpus is left.
>
> Fix that problem by using compute_excpus() to compute the effective xcpus
> into delmask in all cases except partcmd_disable, partcmd_invalidate
> or partcmd_update with newmask set and use it for tasks_nocpu_error()
> check as well as checking its emptiness. This enables us to catch invalid
> partition root more accurately in update_parent_effective_cpumask().
>
> In the case of partcmd_update with newmask set, the passed in new
> effective xcpus value will directly be used in the tasks_nocpu_error()
> check without relying on old data in the cpuset.
>
> For the partcmd_update with NULL newmask case, the cpu exclusivity test
> there is also relaxed to be performed only if exclusive_cpus is empty.
>
> Some test case are added to test_cpuset_prs.sh for invalidating a
> partition root due to its effective xcpus becoming empty as well as
> making sure that an invalid partition can only be revived when exclusive
> CPUs are available agin.
