[ Upstream commit 16f6458f2478b55e2b628797bc81a4455045c74e ]
The msg_zerocopy test pins the sender and receiver threads to separate
cores to reduce variance between runs.
But it hardcodes the cores and skips core 0, so it fails on machines
with the selected cores offline, or simply fewer cores.
The test mainly gives code coverage in automated runs. The throughput
of zerocopy ('-z') and non-zerocopy runs is logged for manual
inspection.
Continue even when sched_setaffinity fails. Just log to warn anyone
interpreting the data.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
