If load_balance() fails to migrate any tasks because all tasks were affined, load_balance() removes the source CPU from consideration and attempts to redo and balance among the new subset of CPUs. There is a bug in this code path where the algorithm considers all active CPUs in the system (minus the source that was just masked out). This is not valid for two reasons: some active CPUs may not be in the current scheduling domain and one of the active CPUs is dst_cpu. These CPUs should not be considered, as we cannot pull load from them. Instead of failing out of load_balance(), we may end up redoing the search with no valid CPUs and incorrectly concluding the domain is balanced. Additionally, if the group_imbalance flag was just set, it may also be incorrectly unset, thus the flag will not be seen by other CPUs in future load_balance() runs as that algorithm intends. Fix the check by removing CPUs not in the current domain and the dst_cpu from considertation, thus limiting the evaluation to valid remaining CPUs from which load might be migrated.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
