Subject: [PATCH 13/13] sched/balancing: Rename find_idlest_cpu() => sched_balance_find_dst_cpu()
Date: Fri,  8 Mar 2024 12:18:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240308111819.1101550-14-mingo@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240308111819.1101550-1-mingo@kernel.org>

Standardize scheduler load-balancing function names on the
sched_balance_() prefix.

Also use 'dst' instead of 'idlest', because it's not really
true that we return the 'idlest' group or CPU, we sort by
idle-exit latency and only return the idlest CPUs from the
lowest-latency set of CPUs.

The true 'idlest' CPUs often remain idle for a long time
and are never returned as long as the system is under-loaded.
