Subject: [PATCH] sched: smpnice try to wakeup modification
Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2006 18:49:16 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4429F5AC.4000103@linux.intel.com> (raw)

Peter,

If there is no load on this_cpu, (i.e. tl_per_task is 0), we will fail the  
"tl + target_load(cpu, idx) <= tl_per_task" check.  I think the original intention was
to put task on this_cpu if it has no load and when there's already one task on 
cpu. This helps spread tasks out for low load condition.

Thanks.

Tim
