The built-in idle selection policy, scx_select_cpu_dfl(), always prioritizes picking idle CPUs within the same LLC or NUMA node, but these optimizations are currently applied only when a task has no CPU affinity constraints. This is done primarily for efficiency, as it avoids the overhead of updating a cpumask every time we need to select an idle CPU (which can be costly in large SMP systems). However, this approach limits the effectiveness of the built-in idle policy and results in inconsistent behavior, as affinity-restricted tasks don't benefit from topology-aware optimizations. To address this, modify the policy to apply LLC and NUMA-aware optimizations even when a task is constrained to a subset of CPUs. We can still avoid updating the cpumasks by checking if the subset of LLC and node CPUs are contained in the subset of allowed CPUs usable by the task (which is true in most of the cases - for tasks that don't have affinity constratints). Moreover, use temporary local per-CPU cpumasks to determine the LLC and node subsets, minimizing potential overhead even on large SMP systems.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
