sched/core: Provide a pointer to the valid CPU mask
In commit:
4b53a3412d66 ("sched/core: Remove the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper")
the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper was removed. There was not
much difference in !RT but in RT we used this to implement
migrate_disable(). Within a migrate_disable() section the CPU mask is
restricted to single CPU while the "normal" CPU mask remains untouched.
As an alternative implementation Ingo suggested to use:
struct task_struct {
const cpumask_t *cpus_ptr;
cpumask_t cpus_mask;
};
with
t->cpus_ptr = &t->cpus_mask;
In -RT we then can switch the cpus_ptr to:
t->cpus_ptr = &cpumask_of(task_cpu(p));
in a migration disabled region. The rules are simple:
- Code that 'uses' ->cpus_allowed would use the pointer.
- Code that 'modifies' ->cpus_allowed would use the direct mask.
