From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2013 00:17:22 +0000 (+0100) Subject: nohz: New option to default all CPUs in full dynticks range X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f98823ac758ba1aa77c6e3f8ad4ef3ad84ee0a7c;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git nohz: New option to default all CPUs in full dynticks range Provide a new kernel config that defaults all CPUs to be part of the full dynticks range, except the boot one for timekeeping. This default setting is overriden by the nohz_full= boot option if passed by the user. This is helpful for those who don't need a finegrained range of full dynticks CPU and also for automated testing. Suggested-by: Ingo Molnar Reviewed-by: Paul E.
