From 575af3de702dae80c40bf510aaf7755374accb88 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Morten Rasmussen Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2016 14:41:08 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 03/92] sched/fair: Consider spare capacity in find_idlest_group() In low-utilization scenarios comparing relative loads in find_idlest_group() doesn't always lead to the most optimum choice. Systems with groups containing different numbers of cpus and/or cpus of different compute capacity are significantly better off when considering spare capacity rather than relative load in those scenarios. In addition to existing load based search an alternative spare capacity based candidate sched_group is found and selected instead if sufficient spare capacity exists. If not, existing behaviour is preserved.
