An example from second patch from the series: DIE [ ] MC [ ][ ] CPU [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Capacity |.....| |.....| |.....| |.....| L M B B Where: arch_scale_cpu_capacity(L) = 512 arch_scale_cpu_capacity(M) = 871 arch_scale_cpu_capacity(B) = 1024 which could also look like: DIE [ ] MC [ ][ ] CPU [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] Capacity |.....| |.....| |.....| |.....| |.....| L M B L B Considering only range would mean loosing the 2 (M) CPUs out of sight for feec in some cases. --- BR.
