- isolcpus= [KNL,SMP] Isolate CPUs from the general scheduler.
- The argument is a cpu list, as described above.

- This option can be used to specify one or more CPUs
- to isolate from the general SMP balancing and scheduling

- "isolated" CPU via the CPU affinity syscalls or cpuset.
- <cpu number> begins at 0 and the maximum value is
- "number of CPUs in system - 1".

- This option is the preferred way to isolate CPUs. The

- tasks in the system -- can cause problems and
- suboptimal load balancer performance.
