get_nohz_timer_target?

[Richard Cochran]

Looking at kernel/sched/core.c:get_nohz_timer_target(), I don't
understand the change made in:

    commit 9642d18eee2cd169b60c6ac0f20bda745b5a3d1e

    nohz: Affine unpinned timers to housekeepers

After that change, the code now reads like this:

	int i, cpu = smp_processor_id();
	struct sched_domain *sd;

	if (!idle_cpu(cpu) && is_housekeeping_cpu(cpu))
		return cpu;

	rcu_read_lock();
	for_each_domain(cpu, sd) {
		for_each_cpu(i, sched_domain_span(sd)) {
			if (!idle_cpu(i) && is_housekeeping_cpu(cpu)) {
--------------------------------------------------------------- ^^^
Was this supposed to be 'i' instead?
If not, how does this test make any sense?
In any case, testing over and over again is surely wasteful.
---------------------------------------------------------------
				cpu = i;
				goto unlock;
			}
		}
	}

	if (!is_housekeeping_cpu(cpu))
		cpu = housekeeping_any_cpu();
unlock:
	rcu_read_unlock();
	return cpu;

Thanks,
Richard
