Kernel thread's CPU affinity with isolcpus kernel boot argument

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

 



Hi all,

we use an Intel Core i7 machine (64bit) to use the cores > 0 for real time tasks.

For this the kernel boot parameter “isolcpus=1-31” is provided.
That works fine for all user space tasks.

However, I noticed that most kernel threads use the affinity mask 0xff.
I can change this by using “taskset”. However, I am wondering if there is mechanism that forces the kernel to consider the value of “isolcpus” also for kernel threads.

Kernel version in use is: 3.18.20-rt18.

Thanks for any feedback on this.

Best regards

Mathias
