[PATCH 1/1] selftests: KVM: set affinity of VM to right CPUs
From: Dongli Zhang
Date: Fri Sep 24 2021 - 19:34:27 EST
The nr_cpus = CPU_COUNT(&possible_mask) is the number of available CPUs in
possible_mask. As a result, the "cpu = i % nr_cpus" may always return CPU
that is not available in possible_mask.
Suppose the server has 8 CPUs. The below Failure is encountered immediately
if the task is bound to CPU 5 and 6.
==== Test Assertion Failure ====
rseq_test.c:228: i > (NR_TASK_MIGRATIONS / 2)
pid=10127 tid=10127 errno=4 - Interrupted system call
1 0x00000000004018e5: main at rseq_test.c:227
2 0x00007fcc8fc66bf6: ?? ??:0
3 0x0000000000401959: _start at ??:?
Only performed 4 KVM_RUNs, task stalled too much?
