I think this code works, but I am not sure if this what you wanted to do.

It seems we set num_cpus in find_num_cpus. It can be the number of online or some driver limited value. We then loop for (i = 0; i < num_cpus i++). Above, then if the cpu is not online then you just set it to the online cpu mask instead of a specific cpu.

Is it possible num_cpus can be 7, but it is possible the online cpus are
0 to 5 and 8. So, when you loop the last vec is set to all online cpus instead of 8 when it is possible to set it to a specific cpu?

Do you want to be doing a for_each_online_cpu to loop instead?


Yes, the original code  could have the behavior you had explained.

I want to rewrite that portion  and will send this as as part of the next patchset.

For now, I want to withdraw this patch i.e PATCH 3/8.

Thanks
Jay
