McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> Subject: [PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 04/10] rcu: ignore offline CPUs in last non-dyntick-idle CPU check From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...fujitsu.com> Offline CPUs are not in nohz_cpu_mask, but can be ignored when checking for the last non-dyntick-idle CPU. This patch therefore only checks online CPUs for not being dyntick idle, allowing fast entry into full-system dyntick-idle state even when there are some offline CPUs.
