Subject: [Patch v4 01/16] sched/cache: Allow only 1 thread of the process to calculate the LLC occupancy
Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 13:39:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5672b52e588b855b01e5a1a17822f7c6c7237a3d.1778703694.git.tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1778703694.git.tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com>
From: Jianyong Wu <wujianyong@hygon.cn>
Scanning online CPUs to calculate the occupancy might be
time-consuming. Only allow 1 thread of the process to scan
the CPUs at the same time, which is similar to what
NUMA balance does in task_numa_work().
