Subject: [PATCH 07/11] sched/numa: Find an alternative idle CPU if the CPU is part of an active NUMA balance
Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2020 09:36:50 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200212093654.4816-8-mgorman@techsingularity.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200212093654.4816-1-mgorman@techsingularity.net>

Multiple tasks can attempt to select and idle CPU but fail because
numa_migrate_on is already set and the migration fails. Instead of failing,
scan for an alternative idle CPU. select_idle_sibling is not used because
it requires IRQs to be disabled and it ignores numa_migrate_on allowing
multiple tasks to stack. This scan may still fail if there are idle
candidate CPUs due to races but if this occurs, it's best that a task
stay on an available CPU that move to a contended one.
