Subject: [RFC PATCH -v4 03/22] cpuset: generalize the validate_partition() interface
Date: Sun, 1 Nov 2026 19:41:47 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261101114206.2434398-4-ridong.chen@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261101114206.2434398-1-ridong.chen@linux.dev>
From: Chen Ridong <chenridong@huawei.com>
Refactor validate_partition() to take the parent partition, the new
partition root state, the new effective exclusive CPUs and the CPUs to
be deleted, instead of a trial cpuset. A NULL parent stands for a
remote partition, whose CPUs come from top_cpuset. This makes the
interface flexible enough to handle both local and remote partition
validation.
The housekeeping conflict check is folded into validate_partition(). It
is skipped when the parent is not a valid partition root, as @cs can't
be a valid local partition in that case.
Use the new interface for local partition enablement in
update_parent_effective_cpumask() and in partition_cpus_change(),
replacing the open-coded checks there. The order of the checks is now
the same for both paths: empty CPUs, housekeeping conflict, then no CPU
left for tasks.
