Hi Juri,

Thanks for coming up with the RFC. I can test your changes in the
server environment. I observed the same issue on my side and I can
reproduce.

I sync'ed up with Qais offline earlier yesterday, and was preparing a
couple of patches that optimize the cpuset.cpus writes. Tracking dl
tasks in cpusets is one of them. But I am happy to take your patches
and do the testing. Note that I won't be able to test the dl part of
the patch, only the latency impact on rebuild_root_domains(), as we
don't have dl tasks in our system.

The other patch is fixing cpuset_rwsem. I see you switched it back to
mutex. I did observe performance issues with cpuset_rwsem. Basically,
using percpu_rwsem generates very very long latency tails for writers,
but mutex doesn't. After some debugging, I found it was because
percpu_rwsem requires every writer to call a synchronize_rcu() for
acquiring the lock. So in my patches, I disabled the fastpath of
readers for cpuset_rwsem. This has been done before[1]. But mutex also
worked.

Anyway, I'm happy to test your patches and ack once they are sent out.
