[PATCH v15 11/13] task_isolation: support CONFIG_TASK_ISOLATION_ALL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This option, similar to NO_HZ_FULL_ALL, simplifies configuring
a system to boot by default with all cores except the boot core
running in task isolation mode.
