commit 2685027fca387b602ae565bff17895188b803988 upstream.
There are 3 places where the cpu and node masks of the top cpuset can
be initialized in the order they are executed:
1) start_kernel -> cpuset_init()
2) start_kernel -> cgroup_init() -> cpuset_bind()
3) kernel_init_freeable() -> do_basic_setup() -> cpuset_init_smp()
The first cpuset_init() call just sets all the bits in the masks.
The second cpuset_bind() call sets cpus_allowed and mems_allowed to the
default v2 values. The third cpuset_init_smp() call sets them back to
v1 values.
For systems with cgroup v2 setup, cpuset_bind() is called once. As a
result, cpu and memory node hot add may fail to update the cpu and node
masks of the top cpuset to include the newly added cpu or node in a
cgroup v2 environment.
For systems with cgroup v1 setup, cpuset_bind() is called again by
rebind_subsystem() when the v1 cpuset filesystem is mounted as shown
in the dmesg log below with an instrumented kernel.
[ 2.609781] cpuset_bind() called - v2 = 1
[ 3.079473] cpuset_init_smp() called
[ 7.103710] cpuset_bind() called - v2 = 0
smp_init() is called after the first two init functions. So we don't
have a complete list of active cpus and memory nodes until later in
cpuset_init_smp() which is the right time to set up effective_cpus
and effective_mems.
To fix this cgroup v2 mask setup problem, the potentially incorrect
cpus_allowed & mems_allowed setting in cpuset_init_smp() are removed.
For cgroup v2 systems, the initial cpuset_bind() call will set the masks
correctly. For cgroup v1 systems, the second call to cpuset_bind()
will do the right setup.
