[PATCH v3 5/7] selftests/cgroup: Add tests for housekeeping CPU return to isolated parents
From: Guopeng Zhang
Date: Wed Sep 02 2026 - 06:34:56 EST
From: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@xxxxxxxxxx>
Return the last housekeeping CPU from a root child to an isolated parent.
Check that the parent becomes invalid and releases its CPUs instead of
adding the returned CPU to the isolated mask.
Repeat the test with two isolated ancestors and check that the outermost
isolated partition is invalidated.
Add the nested test cgroup to the global cleanup list so a failed
assertion does not leave the test hierarchy behind.
