It was reported that the whole futex bench breaks when dealing with
non-contiguously numbered cpus.
$ echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online
$ ./perf bench futex all
perf: pthread_create: Operation not permitted
Run summary [PID 14934]: 7 threads, each ....
James had implemented an approach with cpumaps that use an in house
flavor. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, I've redone the patch such
that we use the perf's util/cpumap.c interface instead.
Applies to all futex benchmarks.
