Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2015 22:05:42 +1030 From: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@...tcorp.com.au> Subject: [PATCH 01/16] CONFIG_DISABLE_OBSOLETE_CPUMASK_FUNCTIONS: set if CPUMASK_OFFSTACK. Using these functions with offstack cpus is unsafe. They use all NR_CPUS bits, unstead of nr_cpumask_bits. In particular, lustre (in staging) used cpus_ and that caused a bug.
