Hi,
as discussed in [1], this is a manual backport of the remaining two
patches to let the io worker threads respect the affinites defined by
the cgroup of the process.
In 6.1 one worker is created per NUMA node, while in da64d6db3bd3
("io_uring: One wqe per wq") this is changed to only have a single worker.
As this patch is pretty invasive, Jens and me agreed to not backport it.
Instead we now limit the workers cpuset to the cpus that are in the
intersection between what the cgroup allows and what the NUMA node has.
This leaves the question what to do in case the intersection is empty:
To be backwarts compatible, we allow this case, but restrict the cpumask
of the poller to the cpuset defined by the cgroup. We further believe
this is a reasonable decision, as da64d6db3bd3 drops the NUMA awareness
anyways.
