I am not sure when this started, but noticed that sched_getaffinity is not working in -rc4. [pid 6254] sched_getaffinity(0, 128, 0x7f80586b1fe0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) Here is a simple program for reproduction: #include int main(void) { cpu_set_t mask; int ret; ret = sched_getaffinity(0, sizeof(mask), &mask); if (ret < 0) perror("getaffinity"); return ret; } If I get time, I will bisect this later today.
