v12:
- Change patch 1 to enable update_tasks_cpumask() for top_cpuset except
for percpu kthreads.
- Add 2 more patches to make exclusivity rule violations invalidate the
partition and its siblings instead of failing the change to make it
consistent with other cpuset changes.
- Update documentation and test script accordingly.
v11:
- Fix incorrect spacing in patch 7 and include documentation suggestions
by Michal.
- Move partition_is_populated() check to the last one in list of
conditions to be checked.
v10:
- Relax constraints for changes made to "cpuset.cpus"
and "cpuset.cpus.partition" as suggested. Now almost all changes
are allowed.
- Add patch 1 to signal that we may need to do additional work in
the future to relax the constraint that tasks' cpumask may need
some adjustment if child partitions are present.
- Add patch 2 for miscellaneous cleanups.
The first patch fixes the problem that tasks in the top_cpuset
will not have its cpus_mask properly set to reflect the reduced
set of cpus available in the top_cpuset when a partition is enabled.
This patchset also includes the following enhancements to the cpuset
v2 partition code.
1) Allow partitions that have no task to have empty effective cpus.
2) Relax the constraints on what changes are allowed in cpuset.cpus
and cpuset.cpus.partition. However, the partition remain invalid
until the constraints of a valid partition root is satisfied.
3) Add a new "isolated" partition type for partitions with no load
balancing which is available in v1 but not yet in v2.
4) Allow the reading of cpuset.cpus.partition to include a reason
string as to why the partition remain invalid.
In addition, the cgroup-v2.rst documentation file is updated and a self
test is added to verify the correctness the partition code.
