init_vp_index() uses the (per-node) hv_numa_map[] masks to record the
CPUs allocated for channel interrupts at a given time, and distribute
the performance-critical channels across the available CPUs: in part.,
the mask of "candidate" target CPUs in a given NUMA node, for a newly
offered channel, is determined by XOR-ing the node's CPU mask and the
node's hv_numa_map. This operation/mechanism assumes that no offline
CPUs is set in the hv_numa_map mask, an assumption that does not hold
since such mask is currently not updated when a channel is removed or
assigned to a different CPU.
To address the issues described above, this adds hooks in the channel
removal path (hv_process_channel_removal()) and in target_cpu_store()
in order to clear, resp. to update, the hv_numa_map[] masks as needed.
This also adds a (missed) update of the masks in init_vp_index() (cf.,
e.g., the memory-allocation failure path in this function).
Like in the case of init_vp_index(), such hooks require to determine
if the given channel is performance critical. init_vp_index() does
this by parsing the channel's offer, it can not rely on the device
data structure (device_obj) to retrieve such information because the
device data structure has not been allocated/linked with the channel
by the time that init_vp_index() executes. A similar situation may
hold in hv_is_alloced_cpu() (defined below); the adopted approach is
to "cache" the device type of the channel, as computed by parsing the
channel's offer, in the channel structure itself.

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.
