This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sched/fair: Take the scheduling domain into account in select_idle_core() to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sched-fair-take-the-scheduling-domain-into-account-i.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit cd95ee4a01095d18f5989af39f5351ec95a9ebdb Author: Keisuke Nishimura <keisuke.nishimura@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jan 10 14:17:07 2024 +0100 sched/fair: Take the scheduling domain into account in select_idle_core() [ Upstream commit 23d04d8c6b8ec339057264659b7834027f3e6a63 ] When picking a CPU on task wakeup, select_idle_core() has to take into account the scheduling domain where the function looks for the CPU. This is because the "isolcpus" kernel command line option can remove CPUs from the domain to isolate them from other SMT siblings. This change replaces the set of CPUs allowed to run the task from p->cpus_ptr by the intersection of p->cpus_ptr and sched_domain_span(sd) which is stored in the 'cpus' argument provided by select_idle_cpu().
