Subject: [PATCH 07/23] watchdog: Sync up with runtime change of isolated CPUs
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 23:03:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260421030351.281436-8-longman@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260421030351.281436-1-longman@redhat.com>
At bootup, watchdog will exclude nohz_full CPUs specified at boot time.
As we are now enabling runtime changes to nohz_full CPUs, the list of
CPUs with watchdog timer running should be updated to exclude the
current set of isolated CPUs.
Add a new watchdog_cpumask_update() helper to be invoked
by housekeeping_update() when the HK_TYPE_KERNEL_NOISE
(HK_TYPE_TIMER) cpumask is being updated to update watchdog_cpumask and
watchdog_allowed_mask for soft lockup detector. The cpumask updates will
be done when the affected CPUs are in the offline state. When those
CPUs are brought up later, the new cpumask will be used to determine
if any hard/soft watchdog should be enabled again.
