[PATCH 4.19 120/134] watchdog: Respect watchdog cpumask on CPU hotplug

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Apr 01 2019 - 13:18:46 EST


4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7dd47617114921fdd8c095509e5e7b4373cc44a1 upstream.

The rework of the watchdog core to use cpu_stop_work broke the watchdog
cpumask on CPU hotplug.

The watchdog_enable/disable() functions are now called unconditionally from
the hotplug callback, i.e. even on CPUs which are not in the watchdog
cpumask. As a consequence the watchdog can become unstoppable.

Only invoke them when the plugged CPU is in the watchdog cpumask.

Fixes: 9cf57731b63e ("watchdog/softlockup: Replace "watchdog/%u" threads with cpu_stop_work")
