So, how about we directly add "cpumask_and with cpu_online_mask", as below: diff --git a/drivers/base/node.c b/drivers/base/node.c index b10479c..199723d 100644 --- a/drivers/base/node.c +++ b/drivers/base/node.c @@ -28,12 +28,14 @@ static struct bus_type node_subsys = { static ssize_t node_read_cpumap(struct device *dev, bool list, char *buf) { struct node *node_dev = to_node(dev); - const struct cpumask *mask = cpumask_of_node(node_dev->dev.id); + struct cpumask mask; + + cpumask_and(&mask, cpumask_of_node(node_dev->dev.id), cpu_online_mask); /* 2008/04/07: buf currently PAGE_SIZE, need 9 chars per 32 bits. */ BUILD_BUG_ON((NR_CPUS/32 * 9) > (PAGE_SIZE-1)); - return cpumap_print_to_pagebuf(list, buf, mask); + return cpumap_print_to_pagebuf(list, buf, &mask); } static inline ssize_t node_read_cpumask(struct device *dev, -- Thanks!
