Hi all, Christmas has come early: it's time for version five of these patches which have previously appeared here: v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201027215118.27003-1-will@xxxxxxxxxx v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201109213023.15092-1-will@xxxxxxxxxx v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201113093720.21106-1-will@xxxxxxxxxx v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201124155039.13804-1-will@xxxxxxxxxx and which started life as a reimplementation of some patches from Qais: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201021104611.2744565-1-qais.yousef@xxxxxxx There's also now a nice writeup on LWN: https://lwn.net/Articles/838339/ and rumours of a feature film are doing the rounds. [subscriber-only, but if you're reading this then you should really subscribe.] The aim of this series is to allow 32-bit ARM applications to run on arm64 SoCs where not all of the CPUs support the 32-bit instruction set. Unfortunately, such SoCs are real and will continue to be productised over the next few years at least. I can assure you that I'm not just doing this for fun. Changes in v5 include: * Teach cpuset_cpus_allowed() about task_cpu_possible_mask() so that we can avoid returning incompatible CPUs for a given task. This means that sched_setaffinity() can be used with larger masks (like the online mask) from userspace and also allows us to take into account the cpuset hierarchy when forcefully overriding the affinity for a task on execve(). * Honour task_cpu_possible_mask() when attaching a task to a cpuset, so that the resulting affinity mask does not contain any incompatible CPUs (since it would be rejected by set_cpus_allowed_ptr() otherwise). * Moved overriding of the affinity mask into the scheduler core rather than munge affinity masks directly in the architecture backend. * Extended comments and documentation. * Some renaming and cosmetic changes. I'm pretty happy with this now, although it still needs review and will require rebasing to play nicely with the SCA changes in -next.
