Subject: [PATCH v3 2/7] cgroup/cpuset: Account for child CPU ownership in partition changes
Date: Wed,  2 Sep 2026 18:26:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260902102615.79189-3-guopeng.zhang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260902102615.79189-1-guopeng.zhang@linux.dev>

From: Guopeng Zhang <zhangguopeng@kylinos.cn>

effective_xcpus includes CPUs granted to valid child partitions. A change
to the parent must not apply its isolation state or housekeeping checks to
CPUs which remain owned by those children.

For example, on a cgroup v2 system with CPUs 0-3 online:

    cd /sys/fs/cgroup
    echo +cpuset > cgroup.subtree_control
    mkdir type-repro
    echo 1-3 > type-repro/cpuset.cpus
    echo isolated > type-repro/cpuset.cpus.partition
    echo +cpuset > type-repro/cgroup.subtree_control
    mkdir type-repro/child
    echo 2-3 > type-repro/child/cpuset.cpus
    echo isolated > type-repro/child/cpuset.cpus.partition
    echo root > type-repro/cpuset.cpus.partition
    cat cpuset.cpus.isolated

The isolated mask should still contain CPUs 2-3 after the parent becomes a
root partition. Without this change, those CPUs are removed even though
the child remains isolated.

Compute the CPUs owned directly by a partition by excluding CPUs granted
to valid children. When validating a trial parent mask, exclude only CPUs
granted to children that will remain valid under that mask. Reuse the child
validation rules so PERR_INVCPUS and PERR_NOCPUS are handled consistently.

Use the directly owned mask for root/isolated type changes and housekeeping
validation. If a root child returns the last housekeeping CPU to an
isolated parent, invalidate the outermost isolated ancestor so the child
can still become a member without violating the housekeeping constraint.
