So the Changelog and the patch don't seem to agree with one another. The Changelog states that nohz_full should depend on isolcpus. The patch implies nohz_full for isolcpus. These are not the same; and I don't see the argument for the former make sense for the latter. In specific isolcpus without nohz_full does make sense. > Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetc...@ezchip.com> > Acked-by: Mike Galbraith <umgwanakikb...@gmail.com> ["thumbs up!"] > Acked-by: Rik van Riel <r...@redhat.com> > --- > kernel/sched/core.c | 1 + > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) > > diff --git a/kernel/sched/core.c b/kernel/sched/core.c > index f0f831e8a345..275f12c608f2 100644 > --- a/kernel/sched/core.c > +++ b/kernel/sched/core.c > @@ -6836,6 +6836,7 @@ static int init_sched_domains(const struct cpumask > *cpu_map) > doms_cur = alloc_sched_domains(ndoms_cur); > if (!doms_cur) > doms_cur = &fallback_doms; > + tick_nohz_full_set_cpus(cpu_isolated_map); > cpumask_andnot(doms_cur[0], cpu_map, cpu_isolated_map); > err = build_sched_domains(doms_cur[0], NULL); > register_sched_domain_sysctl(); -- 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/
