I added more debug and got this:

[  215.097318]  4)               |  /* On unexpected CPU 4, expected 5!!! */
[  215.098285]  4)               |  /* Online CPUs: 0-7  Active CPUs: 0-7 */
[  215.099283]  4)               |  /* ret = 0, ->cpus_allowed 0-4,6-7 */

http://www.rdrop.com/~paulmck/submission/console.tpkm.log.gz

The task's ->cpus_allowed got set to the bitwise not of the requested
mask.  I took a quick scan through the code but don't see how this
happens.

Very strange.

Any suggestions for further debugging?  Left to myself, I would copy
the requested cpumask to a per-task location and insert checks in the
sched_setaffinity() code path, crude and ugly though that might seem.
(Ugly enough that I will wait until tomorrow to try it out.)

							Thanx, Paul
