[PATCH v3 4/9] cgroup/cpuset: Allow suppression of sched domain rebuild in update_cpumasks_hier()

From: Waiman Long
Date: Mon Jun 26 2023 - 20:58:22 EST


A single partition setup and tear-down operation can lead to
multiple rebuild_sched_domains_locked() calls which is a waste of
effort. This can partly be mitigated by adding a flag to suppress the
rebuild_sched_domains_locked() call in update_cpumasks_hier(). Since
a Boolean flag has already been passed as the 3rd argument to
update_cpumasks_hier(), we can extend that to a full flag word.

The sched domain rebuild suppression is now enabled in
update_sibling_cpumasks() as all it callers will do the sched domain
rebuild after its return later on anyway.
