Hi,
The gdb trace above refers to this
<https://github.com/richidubey/rtems/blob/c3162134d3fd7d4d46ec01609d81bdb62bc818af/cpukit/score/src/schedulerstrongapa.c#L187>
code
where the items in all_Nodes chain are checked. The items in the chain are
getting inserted here
<https://github.com/richidubey/rtems/blob/c3162134d3fd7d4d46ec01609d81bdb62bc818af/cpukit/score/src/schedulerstrongapa.c#L772>,
before which on line 763, the Affinity of the items is set to all the
online processors. Why does the gdb show the Affinity of the node as 0
then? How is this possible? Please advise.
