Message-Id: <201105022254.p42MsQcn030354@farm-0023.internal.tilera.com>
Date: Mon, 2 May 2011 15:22:18 -0400
From: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@...era.com>

Subject: [PATCH] arch/tile: disable SD_WAKE_AFFINE flag on CPU/NODE scheduling domain
This allows processes to spread more effectively to multiple cores
(particularly important on 64-core chips!).
