In cgroup v2, a mutual overlap check is required when at least one of two cpusets is exclusive. However, this check should be relaxed and limited to cases where both cpusets are exclusive.
The table 1 shows the partition states of A1 and B1 after each step before applying this patch.
Table 1: Before applying the patch Step | A1's prstate | B1's prstate | #1> mkdir -p A1 | member | | #2> echo "0-1" > A1/cpuset.cpus | member | | #3> echo "root" > A1/cpuset.cpus.partition | root | | #4> mkdir -p B1 | root | member | #5> echo "0-3" > B1/cpuset.cpus | root invalid | member | #6> echo "root" > B1/cpuset.cpus.partition | root invalid | root invalid |
After step #5, A1 changes from "root" to "root invalid" because its CPUs (0-1) overlap with those requested by B1 (0-3). However, B1 can actually use CPUs 2-3, so it would be more reasonable for A1 to remain as "root."
This patch relaxes the exclusive cpuset check for cgroup v2 while preserving the current cgroup v1 behavior.
