Message-Id: <1347509486-8688-1-git-send-email-vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2012 06:11:26 +0200 From: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@...aro.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, linaro-dev@...ts.linaro.org Cc: peterz@...radead.org, mingo@...hat.com, Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@...aro.org> Subject: [RFC] sched: nohz_idle_balance On tickless system, one CPU runs load balance for all idle CPUs. The cpu_load of this CPU is updated before starting the load balance of each other idle CPUs. We should instead update the cpu_load of the balance_cpu.
