[PATCH v10 5/9] cpuset: Make sure that domain roots work properly with CPU hotplug

From: Waiman Long
Date: Mon Jun 18 2018 - 00:15:20 EST


When there is a cpu hotplug event (CPU online or offline), the scheduling
domains needed to be reconfigured and regenerated. So code is added to
the hotplug functions to make them work with new reserved_cpus mask to
compute the right effective_cpus for each of the affected cpusets.

2) No CPU that has been distributed to child scheduling domain
roots is deleted.

+ When all the CPUs allocated to a scheduling domain are offlined,
+ that scheduling domain will be temporaily gone and all the
+ tasks in that scheduling domain will migrate to another one that
+ belongs to the parent of the scheduling domain root. When any
+ of those offlined CPUs is onlined again, a new scheduling domain
+ will be re-created and the tasks will be migrated back.
