Message-ID: <1392887824-20138-1-git-send-email-leiwen@marvell.com> Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2014 17:17:04 +0800 From: Lei Wen <leiwen@...vell.com> To: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>, Lei Wen <leiwen@...vell.com>, <mingo@...hat.com>, <preeti.lkml@...il.com>, <daniel.lezcano@...aro.org>, <viresh.kumar@...aro.org>, <xjian@...vell.com>, <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [PATCH] sched: keep quiescent cpu out of idle balance loop Cpu which is put into quiescent mode, would remove itself from kernel's sched_domain, and want others not disturb its task running. But current scheduler would not checking whether that cpu is setting in such mode, and still insist the quiescent cpu to response the nohz load balance. Fix it by preventing such cpu set nohz.idle_cpus_mask in the first place.
