[PATCH] sched/fair: Optimize select_idle_cpu
From: Cheng Jian
Date: Thu Dec 12 2019 - 09:43:56 EST
select_idle_cpu will scan the LLC domain for idle CPUs,
it's always expensive. so commit
1ad3aaf3fcd2 ("sched/core: Implement new approach to scale select_idle_cpu()")
introduces a way to limit how many CPUs we scan.
But this also lead to the following issue:
Our threads are all bind to the front CPUs of the LLC domain,
and now all the threads runs on the last CPU of them. nr is
always less than the cpumask_weight, for_each_cpu_wrap can't
find the CPU which our threads can run on, so the threads stay
at the last CPU all the time.
Fixes: 1ad3aaf3fcd2 ("sched/core: Implement new approach to scale select_idle_cpu()")
