Subject: [RFC PATCH 4/9] sched: SIS_CORE to disable idle core search
Date: Fri, 30 Aug 2019 10:49:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190830174944.21741-5-subhra.mazumdar@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190830174944.21741-1-subhra.mazumdar@oracle.com>
Use SIS_CORE to disable idle core search. For some workloads
select_idle_core becomes a scalability bottleneck, removing it improves
throughput. Also there are workloads where disabling it can hurt latency,
so need to have an option.
