Subject: [PATCH RFC 11/12] sched/isolation: Implement SMT sibling auto-isolation and safety check
Date: Fri, 06 Feb 2026 02:04:32 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260206-feature-dynamic_isolcpus_dhei-v1-11-00a711eb0c74@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260206-feature-dynamic_isolcpus_dhei-v1-0-00a711eb0c74@gmail.com>
Implement SMT sibling auto-isolation logic via 'smt_aware_mode' sysfs
node. When enabled, writing to housekeeping masks will automatically
ensure that all siblings of a physical core stay together in the same
isolation state.
Also implement a safety check in housekeeping_store() to ensure that
at least one online CPU remains as housekeeping, preventing the user
from accidentally isolating all CPUs and locking up the system.
