Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 01/22] rcu: Control RCU_FANOUT_LEAF from boot-time parameter
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
Although making RCU_FANOUT_LEAF a kernel configuration parameter rather
than a fixed constant makes it easier for people to decrease cache-miss
overhead for large systems, it is of little help for people who must
run a single pre-built kernel binary.
This commit therefore allows the value of RCU_FANOUT_LEAF to be
increased (but not decreased!) via a boot-time parameter named
rcutree.rcu_fanout_leaf.
Reported-by: Mike Galbraith <efault@....de>
