From 6e4f70034387bfdea0027692a34599dc88f3a03e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Waiman Long Date: Sat, 21 Feb 2026 13:54:12 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] cgroup/cpuset: Fix incorrect use of cpuset_update_tasks_cpumask() in update_cpumasks_hier() [ Upstream commit 68230aac8b9aad243626fbaf3ca170012c17fec5 ] Commit e2ffe502ba45 ("cgroup/cpuset: Add cpuset.cpus.exclusive for v2") incorrectly changed the 2nd parameter of cpuset_update_tasks_cpumask() from tmp->new_cpus to cp->effective_cpus. This second parameter is just a temporary cpumask for internal use. The cpuset_update_tasks_cpumask() function was originally called update_tasks_cpumask() before commit 381b53c3b549 ("cgroup/cpuset: rename functions shared between v1 and v2"). This mistake can incorrectly change the effective_cpus of the cpuset when it is the top_cpuset or in arm64 architecture where task_cpu_possible_mask() may differ from cpu_possible_mask. So far top_cpuset hasn't been passed to update_cpumasks_hier() yet, but arm64 arch can still be impacted. Fix it by reverting the incorrect change.
