The only user of the cycle_last validation is the x86 TSC. In order to
provide NMI safe accessor functions for clock monotonic and
monotonic_raw we need to do that in the core.
We can't do the TSC specific
if (now < cycle_last)
now = cycle_last;
for the other wrapping around clocksources, but TSC has
CLOCKSOURCE_MASK(64) which actually does not mask out anything so if
now is less than cycle_last the subtraction will give a negative
result. So we can check for that in clocksource_delta() and return 0
for that case.
Implement and enable it for x86

Adaptively try to shutdown the tick whenever possible, even when

the CPU is running tasks. Typically this requires running a single

task on the CPU. Chances for running tickless are maximized when

the task mostly runs in userspace and has few kernel activity.

You need to fill up the nohz_full boot parameter with the

desired range of dynticks CPUs.

This is implemented at the expense of some overhead in user <-> kernel

transitions: syscalls, exceptions and interrupts. Even when it's

At least one CPU must keep the scheduling-clock tick running for
|
|
timekeeping purposes whenever there is a non-idle CPU, where
|
|
"non-idle" also includes dynticks CPUs as long as they are
|
|
running non-idle tasks. Because the underlying adaptive-tick
|
|
support cannot distinguish between all CPUs being idle and
|
|
all CPUs each running a single task in dynticks mode, the
|
|
underlying support simply ensures that there is always a CPU
|
|
handling the scheduling-clock tick, whether or not all CPUs
|
|
are idle. This Kconfig option enables scalable detection of
|
|
the all-CPUs-idle state, thus allowing the scheduling-clock
|
|
tick to be disabled when all CPUs are idle. Note that scalable
|
|
detection of the all-CPUs-idle state means that larger systems
|
|
will be slower to declare the all-CPUs-idle state.

Say Y if you would like to help debug all-CPUs-idle detection.

Say N if you are unsure.

The full-system idle detection mechanism takes a lazy approach
|
|
on large systems, as is required to attain decent scalability.
|
|
However, on smaller systems, scalability is not anywhere near as
|
|
large a concern as is energy efficiency. The sysidle subsystem
|
|
therefore uses a fast but non-scalable algorithm for small
|
|
systems and a lazier but scalable algorithm for large systems.
|
|
This Kconfig parameter defines the number of CPUs in the largest
|
|
system that will be considered to be "small".
|
|
|
|
The default value will be fine in most cases. Battery-powered
|
|
systems that (1) enable NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE, (2) have larger
|
|
numbers of CPUs, and (3) are suffering from battery-lifetime
|
|
problems due to long sysidle latencies might wish to experiment
|
|
with larger values for this Kconfig parameter. On the other
|
|
hand, they might be even better served by disabling NO_HZ_FULL
|
|
entirely, given that NO_HZ_FULL is intended for HPC and
|
|
real-time workloads that at present do not tend to be run on
|
|
battery-powered systems.
|
|
|
|
Take the default if you are unsure.
