Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] smpboot: allow excluding cpus from the smpboot threads
Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2015 15:45:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1428349556-21873-2-git-send-email-cmetcalf@ezchip.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1428349556-21873-1-git-send-email-cmetcalf@ezchip.com>
From: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com>
This change allows some cores to be excluded from running the
smp_hotplug_thread tasks. The motivating example for this is
the watchdog threads, which by default we don't want to run
on any enabled nohz_full cores.
