I was going through the boot up code and came across the following masks .
- CPU online mask : The number of CPU's available for getting scheduled on
- CPU active mask : The number of CPU's on which some task can be migrated to (not very clear as to the difference between online and active)
- CPU present mask : Total number of CPU's limited by max cpu's variable
- CPU possible mask : Total number of possible CPU's in the system
But i am not sure if my understanding is correct and wanted to validate the same .
Thanks,
