Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] cgroup/cpuset: Recompute effective cpumask in update_cpumasks_hier() after calling update_parent_effective_cpumask()
Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2026 15:07:00 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261030190701.78308-3-longman@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261030190701.78308-1-longman@redhat.com>

It is reported by sashiko that calling update_parent_effective_cpumask()
may clobber tmp->new_cpus when update_sibling_cpumasks() needs to be
called due to possible change in the parent's effective_cpus value.
Therefore the new effective cpumask has to be recomputed after calling
update_parent_effective_cpumask() to get a correct value back into
tmp->new_cpus.

Fixes: f0af1bfc27b5 ("cgroup/cpuset: Relax constraints to partition & cpus changes")
