Subject: [patch 2/5] sched: Disable TTWU_QUEUE on RT
Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2021 14:24:27 +0200 (CEST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210928122411.482262764@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20210928122339.502270600@linutronix.de
The queued remote wakeup mechanism has turned out to be suboptimal for RT
enabled kernels. The maximum latencies go up by a factor of > 5x in certain
scenarious.
This is caused by either long wake lists or by a large number of TTWU IPIs
which are processed back to back.
Disable it for RT.
