From 543487c7a2670bb0d96c00673a44b74360e3b6c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2013 10:22:12 -0400 Subject: nohz: Do not warn about unstable tsc unless user uses nohz_full If the user enables CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL and runs the kernel on a machine with an unstable TSC, it will produce a WARN_ON dump as well as taint the kernel. This is a bit extreme for a kernel that just enables a feature but doesn't use it. The warning should only happen if the user tries to use the feature by either adding nohz_full to the kernel command line, or by enabling CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL that makes nohz used on all CPUs at boot up. Note, this second feature should not (yet) be used by distros or anyone that doesn't care if NO_HZ is used or not. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Cc: Paul E.

This means that we can define a CPU range that doesn't run the context tracking and another range that does. Now what we want in practice is to enable the tracking on full dynticks CPUs only. In order to perform this, we just need to pass our full dynticks CPU range selection from the full dynticks subsystem to the context tracking. This way we can spare the overhead of RCU user extended quiescent state and vtime maintainance on the CPUs that are outside the full dynticks range. Just keep in mind the raw context tracking itself is still necessary everywhere. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Paul E.
