[PATCH-cgroup 1/2] cgroup/cpuset: Fix remote root partition creation problem

From: Waiman Long
Date: Wed Jun 05 2024 - 13:19:42 EST


Since commit 181c8e091aae ("cgroup/cpuset: Introduce remote partition"),
a remote partition can be created underneath a non-partition root cpuset
as long as its exclusive_cpus are set to distribute exclusive CPUs down
to its children. The generate_sched_domains() function, however, doesn't
take into account this new behavior and hence will fail to create the
sched domain needed for a remote root (non-isolated) partition.

There are two issues related to remote partition support. First of
all, generate_sched_domains() has a fast path that is activated if
root_load_balance is true and top_cpuset.nr_subparts is non-zero. The
later condition isn't quite correct for remote partitions as nr_subparts
just shows the number of local child partitions underneath it. There
can be no local child partition under top_cpuset even if there are
remote partitions further down the hierarchy. Fix that by checking
for subpartitions_cpus which contains exclusive CPUs allocated to both
local and remote partitions.

Secondly, the valid partition check for subtree skipping in the csa[]
generation loop isn't enough as remote partition does not need to
have a partition root parent. Fix this problem by breaking csa[] array
generation loop of generate_sched_domains() into v1 and v2 specific parts
and checking a cpuset's exclusive_cpus before skipping its subtree in
the v2 case.

Also simplify generate_sched_domains() for cgroup v2 as only
non-isolating partition roots should be included in building the cpuset
array and none of the v1 scheduling attributes other than a different
way to create an isolated partition are supported.
