kernel/cgroup/cpuset.c:705 cpu_exclusive_check() warn:
signedness bug returning '(-22)'
The code works correctly, but it is confusing. The current behavior is
that cpu_exclusive_check() returns true if it's *NOT* exclusive. Rename
it to cpusets_are_exclusive() and reverse the returns so it returns true
if it is exclusive and false if it's not. Update both callers as well.

When a local partition becomes invalid, it won't transition back to
valid partition automatically if a proper "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" or
"cpuset.cpus" change is made. Instead, system administrators have to
explicitly echo "root" or "isolated" into the "cpuset.cpus.partition"
file at the partition root.
This patch now enables the automatic transition of an invalid local
partition back to valid when there is a proper "cpuset.cpus.exclusive"
or "cpuset.cpus" change.
Automatic transition of an invalid remote partition to a valid one,
however, is not covered by this patch. They still need an explicit
write to "cpuset.cpus.partition" to become valid again.
The test_cpuset_prs.sh test script is updated to add new test cases to
test this automatic state transition.

A user can pre-configure certain CPUs in an isolated state at boot time
with the "isolcpus" kernel boot command line option. Those CPUs will
not be in the housekeeping_cpumask(HK_TYPE_DOMAIN) and so will not
be in any sched domains. This may conflict with the partition setup
at runtime. Those boot time isolated CPUs should only be used in an
isolated partition.

One can use "cpuset.cpus.partition" to create multiple scheduling domains
or to produce a set of isolated CPUs where load balancing is disabled.
The former use case is less common but the latter one can be frequently
used especially for the Telco use cases like DPDK.
The existing "isolated" partition can be used to produce isolated
CPUs if the applications have full control of a system. However, in a
containerized environment where all the apps are run in a container,
it is hard to distribute out isolated CPUs from the root down given
the unified hierarchy nature of cgroup v2.
The container running on isolated CPUs can be several layers down from
the root. The current partition feature requires that all the ancestors
of a leaf partition root must be parititon roots themselves. This can
be hard to configure.
This patch introduces a new type of partition called remote partition.
A remote partition is a partition whose parent is not a partition root
itself and its CPUs are acquired directly from available CPUs in the
top cpuset through a hierachical distribution of exclusive CPUs down
from it.
By contrast, the existing type of partitions where their parents have
to be valid partition roots are referred to as local partitions as they
have to be clustered around a parent partition root.
Child local partitons can be created under a remote partition, but
a remote partition cannot be created under a local partition. We may
relax this limitation in the future if there are use cases for such
configuration.
Manually writing to the "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" file is not necessary
when creating local partitions. However, writing proper values to
"cpuset.cpus.exclusive" down the cgroup hierarchy before the target
remote partition root is mandatory for the creation of a remote
partition.
The value in "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" may change if its
"cpuset.cpus" or its parent's "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" changes.

file for v2 which will be added to non-root cpuset enabled cgroups. This new

The value written to "cpuset.cpus.exclusive" may not be the effective
value being used for the creation of cpuset partition, the effective
value will show up in "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" and it is
subject to the constraint that it must also be a subset of cpus_allowed
and parent's "cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective".

The creation of a cpuset partition means dedicating a set of exclusive
CPUs to be used by a particular partition only. These exclusive CPUs
will not be used by any cpusets outside of that partition.
To enable more flexibility in creating partitions, we need a way to
distribute exclusive CPUs that can be used in new partitions. Currently,
we have a subparts_cpus cpumask in struct cpuset that tracks only
the exclusive CPUs used by all the sub-partitions underneath a given
cpuset.
This patch reworks the way we do exclusive CPUs tracking. The
subparts_cpus is now renamed to effective_xcpus which tracks the
exclusive CPUs allocated to a partition root including those that are
further distributed down to sub-partitions underneath it. IOW, it also
includes the exclusive CPUs used by the current partition root. Note
that effective_xcpus can contain offline CPUs and it will always be a
subset of cpus_allowed.
The renamed effective_xcpus is now exposed via a new read-only
"cpuset.cpus.exclusive.effective" control file. The new effective_xcpus
cpumask should be set to cpus_allowed when a cpuset becomes a partition
root and be cleared if it is not a valid partition root.
In the next patch, we will enable write to another new control file to
enable further control of what can get into effective_xcpus.

When we migrate a task between two cgroups, one of the checks is a
verification whether we can modify task's scheduler settings
(cap_task_setscheduler()).
An implicit migration occurs also when enabling a controller on the
unified hierarchy (think of parent to child migration). The
aforementioned check may be problematic if the caller of the migration
(enabling a controller) has no permissions over migrated tasks.
For instance, a user's cgroup that ends up running a process of a
different user. Although cgroup permissions are configured favorably,
the enablement fails due to the foreign process [1].
Change the behavior by relaxing the permissions check on the unified
hierarchy when no effective change would happen.
This is in accordance with unified hierarchy attachment behavior when
permissions of the source to target cgroups are decisive whereas the
migrated task is opaque (as opposed to more restrictive check in
__cgroup1_procs_write()).
Notice that foreign task's affinity may still be modified if the user
can modify destination cgroup's cpuset attributes
(update_tasks_cpumask() does no permissions check). The permissions
check could thus be skipped on v2 even when affinity changes. Stay
conservative in this patch though.

set_cpus_allowed_ptr() will fail with -EINVAL if the requested

spanning the different CPU types, updates to the cgroup hierarchy can
silently fail to update task affinities when the effective affinity
mask for the cpuset is expanded.
For example, consider an arm64 system with 4 CPUs, where CPUs 2-3 are
the only cores capable of executing 32-bit tasks. Attaching a 32-bit
task to a cpuset containing CPUs 0-2 will correctly affine the task to
CPU 2. Extending the cpuset to CPUs 0-3, however, will fail to extend
the affinity mask of the 32-bit task because update_tasks_cpumask() will
pass the full 0-3 mask to set_cpus_allowed_ptr().
Extend update_tasks_cpumask() to take a temporary 'cpumask' paramater
and use it to mask the 'effective_cpus' mask with the possible mask for
each task being updated.

Since commit 8f9ea86fdf ("sched: Always preserve the user
requested cpumask"), relax_compatible_cpus_allowed_ptr() is calling
__sched_setaffinity() unconditionally. This helps to expose a bug in
the current cpuset hotplug code where the cpumasks of the tasks in
the top cpuset are not updated at all when some CPUs become online or
offline. It is likely caused by the fact that some of the tasks in the
top cpuset, like percpu kthreads, cannot have their cpu affinity changed.
One way to reproduce this as suggested by Peter is:
- boot machine
- offline all CPUs except one
- taskset -p ffffffff $$
- online all CPUs
Fix this by allowing cpuset_cpus_allowed() to return a wider mask that
includes offline CPUs for those tasks that are in the top cpuset. For
tasks not in the top cpuset, the old rule applies and only online CPUs
will be returned in the mask since hotplug events will update their
cpumasks accordingly.

cpuset_rwsem is a static variable defined with DEFINE_STATIC_PERCPU_RWSEM().
It's initialized at build time and so there's no need for explicit runtime
init leaking one percpu int.

It was found that with the default hierarchy, enabling cpuset in the
child cgroups can trigger a cpuset_attach() call in each of the child
cgroups that have tasks with no change in effective cpus and mems. If
there are many processes in those child cgroups, it will burn quite a
lot of cpu cycles iterating all the tasks without doing useful work.
Optimizing this case by comparing between the old and new cpusets and
skip useless update if there is no change in effective cpus and mems.
Also mems_allowed are less likely to be changed than cpus_allowed. So
skip changing mm if there is no change in effective_mems and
CS_MEMORY_MIGRATE is not set.
By inserting some instrumentation code and running a simple command in
a container 200 times in a cgroup v2 system, it was found that all the
cpuset_attach() calls are skipped (401 times in total) as there was no
change in effective cpus and mems.

The priority of hotplug memory callback is defined in a different file.
And there are some callers using numbers directly. Collect them together
into include/linux/memory.h for easy reading. This allows us to sort
their priorities more intuitively without additional comments.

Patch series "mm: Use hotplug_memory_notifier() instead of
register_hotmemory_notifier()", v4.
Commit f02c696800 ("include/linux/memory.h: implement
register_hotmemory_notifier()") introduced register_hotmemory_notifier()
to avoid a compile problem with gcc-4.4.4:
When CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n, we don't want the memory-hotplug notifier
handlers to be included in the .o files, for space reasons.
The existing hotplug_memory_notifier() tries to handle this but testing
with gcc-4.4.4 shows that it doesn't work - the hotplug functions are
still present in the .o files.
Since commit 76ae847497 ("Documentation: raise minimum supported
version of GCC to 5.1") has already updated the minimum gcc version to
5.1. The previous problem mentioned in f02c696800 does not exist. So
we can now revert to use hotplug_memory_notifier() directly rather than
register_hotmemory_notifier().
In the last patch, we move all hotplug memory notifier priority to same
file for easy sorting.
This patch (of 8):
Commit 76ae847497 ("Documentation: raise minimum supported version of
GCC to 5.1") updated the minimum gcc version to 5.1. So the problem
mentioned in f02c696800 ("include/linux/memory.h: implement
register_hotmemory_notifier()") no longer exist. So we can now switch to
use hotplug_memory_notifier() directly rather than
register_hotmemory_notifier().

Currently, changes in "cpust.cpus" of a partition root is not allowed if
it violates the sibling cpu exclusivity rule when the check is done
in the validate_change() function. That is inconsistent with the
other cpuset changes that are always allowed but may make a partition
invalid.
Update the cpuset code to allow cpumask change even if it violates the
sibling cpu exclusivity rule, but invalidate the partition instead
just like the other changes. However, other sibling partitions with
conflicting cpumask will also be invalidated in order to not violating
the exclusivity rule. This behavior is specific to this partition
rule violation.
Note that a previous commit has made sibling cpu exclusivity rule check
the last check of validate_change(). So if -EINVAL is returned, we can
be sure that sibling cpu exclusivity rule violation is the only rule
that is broken.

There are a number of different reasons which can cause a partition to
become invalid. A user seeing an invalid partition may not know exactly
why. To help user to get a better understanding of the underlying reason,
The cpuset.cpus.partition control file, when read, will now report the
reason why a partition become invalid. When a partition does become
invalid, reading the control file will show "root invalid (<reason>)"
where <reason> is a string that describes why the partition is invalid.

Cpuset v1 uses the sched_load_balance control file to determine if load
balancing should be enabled. Cpuset v2 gets rid of sched_load_balance
as its use may require disabling load balancing at cgroup root.
For workloads that require very low latency like DPDK, the latency
jitters caused by periodic load balancing may exceed the desired
latency limit.
When cpuset v2 is in use, the only way to avoid this latency cost is to
use the "isolcpus=" kernel boot option to isolate a set of CPUs. After
the kernel boot, however, there is no way to add or remove CPUs from
this isolated set. For workloads that are more dynamic in nature, that
means users have to provision enough CPUs for the worst case situation
resulting in excess idle CPUs.
To address this issue for cpuset v2, a new cpuset.cpus.partition type
"isolated" is added which allows the creation of a cpuset partition
without load balancing. This will allow system administrators to
dynamically adjust the size of isolated partition to the current need
of the workload without rebooting the system.

Currently, enabling a partition root is only allowed if all the
constraints of a valid partition are satisfied. Even changes to
"cpuset.cpus" may not be allowed in some cases. Moreover, there are
limits to changes made to a parent cpuset if it is a valid partition
root. This is contrary to the general cgroup v2 philosophy.
This patch relaxes the constraints of changing the state of "cpuset.cpus"
and "cpuset.cpus.partition". Now all valid changes ("member" or "root")
to "cpuset.cpus.partition" are allowed even if there are child cpusets
underneath it.
Trying to make a cpuset a partition root, however, will cause its state
to become invalid if the following constraints of a valid partition
root are not satisfied.
1) The "cpuset.cpus" is non-empty and exclusive.
2) The parent cpuset is a valid partition root.
3) The "cpuset.cpus" overlaps parent's "cpuset.cpus".
Similarly, almost all changes to "cpuset.cpus" are allowed with the
exception that if the underlying CS_CPU_EXCLUSIVE flag is set, the
exclusivity rule will still apply.
