Subject[PATCH v3 0/3] isolcpus
Date
It looks like cpus_allowed can have a mix of isolcpus and non-isolcpus.
However that seems to cause some inconsistent behaviour esp with numa
balancing.
The first patch will only add a warning whenever a user tries to pass a mask
that has a mix of both isolcpus and nonisolcpus.

The second patch will detect and correct mixed cpumask but silently.
Since set_cpus_allowed_common is under a spinlock, it doesnt add any hints
when it corrects the cpumask.

The third patch returns an error if a user passes a mixed cpumask. Its an
addition to the first patch. However separating it out helps if ever we have
to revert the earlier behaviour. This might cause a change in
sched_setaffinity behaviour when isolcpus is set.

Srikar Dronamraju (3):
sched/core: Warn if cpumask has a mix of isolcpus and housekeeping
CPUs
sched/core: Don't mix isolcpus and housekeeping CPUs
sched/core: Error out if cpumask has a mix of isolcpus and
housekeeping CPUs
