Commit be4c9dd7aee5 ("cpuset: enable onlined cpu/node in effective masks")
leverages cpuset's cpus_allowed and its parent's effective_cpus to calculate
the new_cpus by:
cpumask_and(&new_cpus, cs->cpus_allowed, parent_cs(cs)->effective_cpus);
However cpus_allowed will also be updated after the CPU is offline, in
hotplug_update_tasks_legacy, so when the CPU is online again, it will use
the old cpus_allowed mask to calculate the new_cpus, thus new_cpus will get
incorrect value after each round of offline/online.
This problem is found on ubuntu 15.10 with cpuset mounted:
1. echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
2. echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
3. cat /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/cpuset.cpus
0-3
4. cat /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/user.slice/cpuset.cpus
0-1,3
5. taskset -c 2 ls
taskset: failed to set pid 0's affinity: Invalid argument
This is the expected behavior...In legacy hierachy onlining an offlined cpu
won't restore cpuset configurations automatically.
Commit be4c9dd7aee5 changed this behavior, but only for unified hierachy.
