[PATCH v1 02/14] libperf cpumap: Rename and prefer sysfs for perf_cpu_map__default_new

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Wed Nov 29 2023 - 01:02:28 EST


Rename perf_cpu_map__default_new to perf_cpu_map__new_online_cpus to
better indicate what the implementation does. Read the online CPUs
from /sys/devices/system/cpu/online first before using sysconf as
sysconf can't accurately configure holes in the CPU map. If sysconf is
used, warn when the configured and online processors disagree.

When reading from a file, if the read doesn't yield a CPU map then
return an empty map rather than the default online. This avoids
recursion but also better yields being able to detect failures.

Add more comments.
