Subject: [RFC PATCH 09/19] sched/topology: Introduce percpu sd_nohz for nohz state tracking
Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2025 04:15:05 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250904041516.3046-10-kprateek.nayak@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250904041516.3046-1-kprateek.nayak@amd.com>
Add a per-CPU "sd_nohz" variable to track domains in the local CPU's
hierarchy that have "sd->shared" set for nohz idle tracking.
Convert cpu_set_sd_state_*() to use "sd_nohz" instead of "sd_llc"
increasing the scope of tracking to all CPUs with non-NULL sd hierarchy
attached as opposed to just those CPUs with a "sd_llc" domain.
"sd_nohz" will be used in a subsequent commit to transition
nohz_balancer_kick() to use the distributed nohz idle tracking.
