yes, you're right it's cpu_power, i will correct the comment > >> + * sched class or interrupts which use part of the available capacity >> + */ > > ... 'interrupts' only w/ CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING=y, right ? yes, we need CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING in order to scale the cpu_power with time spent under irq. I have made test with and without this config to show impact (in the cover letter) Thanks Vincent > >> + if ((sg->sgp->power_orig * 100) > (sgs->group_power * >> env->sd->imbalance_pct)) >> + return true; >> + > [...] > > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in > the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
