drivers/base: fix userspace break from using bin_attributes for cpumap and cpulist
[ Upstream commit 7ee951acd31a88f941fd6535fbdee3a1567f1d63 ]
Using bin_attributes with a 0 size causes fstat and friends to return that
0 size. This breaks userspace code that retrieves the size before reading
the file. Rather than reverting 75bd50fa841 ("drivers/base/node.c: use
bin_attribute to break the size limitation of cpumap ABI") let's put in a
size value at compile time.
For cpulist the maximum size is on the order of
NR_CPUS * (ceil(log10(NR_CPUS)) + 1)/2
which for 8192 is 20480 (8192 * 5)/2. In order to get near that you'd need
a system with every other CPU on one node. For example: (0,2,4,8, ... ).
To simplify the math and support larger NR_CPUS in the future we are using
(NR_CPUS * 7)/2. We also set it to a min of PAGE_SIZE to retain the older
behavior for smaller NR_CPUS.
The cpumap file the size works out to be NR_CPUS/4 + NR_CPUS/32 - 1
(or NR_CPUS * 9/32 - 1) including the ","s.
Add a set of macros for these values to cpumask.h so they can be used in
multiple places. Apply these to the handful of such files in
drivers/base/topology.c as well as node.c.
As an example, on an 80 cpu 4-node system (NR_CPUS == 8192):
before:
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 0 Jul 12 14:08 system/node/node0/cpulist
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 0 Jul 11 17:25 system/node/node0/cpumap
after:
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 28672 Jul 13 11:32 system/node/node0/cpulist
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Jul 13 11:31 system/node/node0/cpumap
CONFIG_NR_CPUS = 16384
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 57344 Jul 13 14:03 system/node/node0/cpulist
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4607 Jul 13 14:02 system/node/node0/cpumap
The actual number of cpus doesn't matter for the reported size since they
are based on NR_CPUS.
