The 'isolcpus' parameter specified at boot time can be assigned to an
isolated partition. While it is valid put the 'isolcpus' in an isolated
partition, attempting to change a member cpuset to an isolated partition
will fail if the cpuset contains any 'isolcpus'.
For example, the system boots with 'isolcpus=9', and the following
configuration works correctly:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup/
# mkdir test
# echo 1 > test/cpuset.cpus
# echo isolated > test/cpuset.cpus.partition
# cat test/cpuset.cpus.partition
isolated
# echo 9 > test/cpuset.cpus
# cat test/cpuset.cpus.partition
isolated
# cat test/cpuset.cpus
9
However, the following steps to convert a member cpuset to an isolated
partition will fail:
# cd /sys/fs/cgroup/
# mkdir test
# echo 9 > test/cpuset.cpus
# echo isolated > test/cpuset.cpus.partition
# cat test/cpuset.cpus.partition
isolated invalid (partition config conflicts with housekeeping setup)
The issue occurs because the new partition state (new_prs) is used for
validation against housekeeping constraints before it has been properly
updated. To resolve this, move the assignment of new_prs before the
housekeeping validation check when enabling a root partition.
