Rebinding workers of a per-cpu pool after a CPU comes online involves a lot of back-and-forth mostly because only the task itself could adjust CPU affinity if PF_THREAD_BOUND was set. As CPU_ONLINE itself couldn't adjust affinity, it had to somehow coerce the workers themselves to perform set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Due to the various states a worker can be in, this led to three different paths a worker may be rebound. worker->rebind_work is queued to busy workers. Idle ones are signaled by unlinking worker->entry and call idle_worker_rebind(). The manager isn't covered by either and implements its own mechanism. PF_THREAD_BOUND has been relaced with PF_NO_SETAFFINITY and CPU_ONLINE itself now can manipulate CPU affinity of workers. This patch replaces the existing rebind mechanism with direct one where CPU_ONLINE iterates over all workers using for_each_pool_worker(), restores CPU affinity, and clears WORKER_UNBOUND. There are a couple subtleties. All bound idle workers should have their runqueues set to that of the bound CPU; however, if the target task isn't running, set_cpus_allowed_ptr() just updates the cpus_allowed mask deferring the actual migration to when the task wakes up. This is worked around by waking up idle workers after restoring CPU affinity before any workers can become bound. Another subtlety is stems from matching @pool->nr_running with the number of running unbound workers. While DISASSOCIATED, all workers are unbound and nr_running is zero. As workers become bound again, nr_running needs to be adjusted accordingly; however, there is no good way to tell whether a given worker is running without poking into scheduler internals. Instead of clearing UNBOUND directly, rebind_workers() replaces UNBOUND with another new NOT_RUNNING flag - REBOUND, which will later be cleared by the workers themselves while preparing for the next round of work item execution. The only change needed for the workers is clearing REBOUND along with PREP. * This patch leaves for_each_busy_worker() without any user. Removed. * idle_worker_rebind(), busy_worker_rebind_fn(), worker->rebind_work and rebind logic in manager_workers() removed. * worker_thread() now looks at WORKER_DIE instead of testing whether @worker->entry is empty to determine whether it needs to do something special as dying is the only special thing now.
