Subject: [PATCH 1/3] cpufreq: schedutil: Use idle_calls counter of the remote CPU
Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2017 07:39:42 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171215153944.220146-1-joelaf@google.com> (raw)
Since the recent remote cpufreq callback work, its possible that a cpufreq
update is triggered from a remote CPU. For single policies however, the current
code uses the local CPU when trying to determine if the remote sg_cpu entered
idle or is busy. This is incorrect. To remedy this, compare with the nohz tick
idle_calls counter of the remote CPU.
