Having implemented this "relaxed" addition (patch to be posted after
a few more tests), I find that with Dom0 being restricted to half of
the nodes of the test system, soft affinity set to that set, and hard
affinity left set to "all", many Dom0 vCPU-s nevertheless run on the
CPUs not in its soft affinity (and there's no other load on the system).
Is there a bug in that (credit) scheduler logic somewhere?
