[PATCH v2 2/4] sched/isolation: Extend nohz_full to isolate managed IRQs

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

 



Extend nohz_full feature set to include isolation from managed IRQS. This
is required specifically for setups that only uses nohz_full and still
requires isolation for maintaining lower latency for the listed CPUs.

Having this change will ensure that the kernel functions that were using
HK_FLAG_MANAGED_IRQ to derive cpumask for pinning various jobs/IRQs do not
enqueue anything on the CPUs listed under nohz_full.
