It was found that the user requested affinity via sched_setaffinity() can be easily overwritten by other kernel subsystems without an easy way to reset it back to what the user requested. For example, any change to the current cpuset hierarchy may reset the cpumask of the tasks in the affected cpusets to the default cpuset value even if those tasks have pre-existing user requested affinity. That is especially easy to trigger under a cgroup v2 environment where writing "+cpuset" to the root cgroup's cgroup.subtree_control file will reset the cpus affinity of all the processes in the system. That is problematic in a nohz_full environment where the tasks running in the nohz_full CPUs usually have their cpus affinity explicitly set and will behave incorrectly if cpus affinity changes. Fix this problem by looking at user_cpus_ptr in __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() and use it to restrcit the given cpumask unless there is no overlap. In that case, it will fallback to the given one. The SCA_USER flag is reused to indicate intent to set user_cpus_ptr and so user_cpus_ptr masking should be skipped. In addition, masking should also be skipped if any of the SCA_MIGRATE_* flag is set. All callers of set_cpus_allowed_ptr() will be affected by this change. A scratch cpumask is added to percpu runqueues structure for doing additional masking when user_cpus_ptr is set.

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 Restructured Text 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.
