[PATCH 03/33] memcg: Prepare to protect against concurrent isolated cpuset change

From: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-01-01 22:14:37
Also in: cgroups, linux-arm-kernel, linux-block, linux-mm, linux-pci, lkml
Subsystem: control group - memory resource controller (memcg), memory management, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Weiner, Michal Hocko, Roman Gushchin, Shakeel Butt, Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds

The HK_TYPE_DOMAIN housekeeping cpumask will soon be made modifiable at
runtime. In order to synchronize against memcg workqueue to make sure
that no asynchronous draining is pending or executing on a newly made
isolated CPU, target and queue a drain work under the same RCU critical
section.

Whenever housekeeping will update the HK_TYPE_DOMAIN cpumask, a memcg
workqueue flush will also be issued in a further change to make sure
that no work remains pending after a CPU has been made isolated.
