This value must be at least the fourth - root of NR_CPUS, which allows NR_CPUS to be insanely large. - The default value of RCU_FANOUT should be used for production - systems, but if you are stress-testing the RCU implementation - itself, small RCU_FANOUT values allow you to test large-system - code paths on small(er) systems. - - Select a specific number if testing RCU itself. - Take the default if unsure. - -config RCU_FANOUT_LEAF - int "Tree-based hierarchical RCU leaf-level fanout value" - range 2 64 if 64BIT - range 2 32 if !64BIT - depends on (TREE_RCU || PREEMPT_RCU) && RCU_EXPERT - default 16 - help - This option controls the leaf-level fanout of hierarchical - implementations of RCU, and allows trading off cache misses - against lock contention. Systems that synchronize their - scheduling-clock interrupts for energy-efficiency reasons will - want the default because the smaller leaf-level fanout keeps - lock contention levels acceptably low. Very large systems - (hundreds or thousands of CPUs) will instead want to set this - value to the maximum value possible in order to reduce the - number of cache misses incurred during RCU's grace-period - initialization. These systems tend to run CPU-bound, and thus - are not helped by synchronized interrupts, and thus tend to - skew them, which reduces lock contention enough that large - leaf-level fanouts work well. That said, setting leaf-level - fanout to a large number will likely cause problematic - lock contention on the leaf-level rcu_node structures unless - you boot with the skew_tick kernel parameter. - - Select a specific number if testing RCU itself. - - Select the maximum permissible value for large systems, but - please understand that you may also need to set the skew_tick - kernel boot parameter to avoid contention on the rcu_node - structure's locks. - - Take the default if unsure. - -config RCU_FAST_NO_HZ - bool "Accelerate last non-dyntick-idle CPU's grace periods" - depends on NO_HZ_COMMON && SMP && RCU_EXPERT - default n - help - This option permits CPUs to enter dynticks-idle state even if - they have RCU callbacks queued, and prevents RCU from waking - these CPUs up more than roughly once every four jiffies (by - default, you can adjust this using the rcutree.rcu_idle_gp_delay - parameter), thus improving energy efficiency.

If you are working with a - real-time application that has one or more CPU-bound threads - running at a real-time priority level, you should set - RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO to a priority higher than the highest-priority - real-time CPU-bound application thread. The default RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO - value of 1 is appropriate in the common case, which is real-time - applications that do not have any CPU-bound threads. - - Some real-time applications might not have a single real-time - thread that saturates a given CPU, but instead might have - multiple real-time threads that, taken together, fully utilize - that CPU. In this case, you should set RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO to - a priority higher than the lowest-priority thread that is - conspiring to prevent the CPU from running any non-real-time - tasks. For example, if one thread at priority 10 and another - thread at priority 5 are between themselves fully consuming - the CPU time on a given CPU, then RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO should be - set to priority 6 or higher. - - Specify the real-time priority, or take the default if unsure. - -config RCU_BOOST_DELAY - int "Milliseconds to delay boosting after RCU grace-period start" - range 0 3000 - depends on RCU_BOOST - default 500 - help - This option specifies the time to wait after the beginning of - a given grace period before priority-boosting preempted RCU - readers blocking that grace period.

Additional CPUs may be designated as no-CBs - CPUs using the rcu_nocbs= boot parameter will be no-CBs CPUs. - All other CPUs will invoke their own RCU callbacks in softirq - context. - - Select this if CPU 0 needs to be a no-CBs CPU for real-time - or energy-efficiency reasons, but the real reason it exists - is to ensure that randconfig testing covers mixed systems. - -config RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL - bool "All CPUs are build_forced no-CBs CPUs" - help - This option forces all CPUs to be no-CBs CPUs. The rcu_nocbs= - boot parameter will be ignored. All CPUs' RCU callbacks will - be executed in the context of per-CPU rcuo kthreads created for - this purpose. Assuming that the kthreads whose names start with - "rcuo" are bound to "housekeeping" CPUs, this reduces OS jitter - on the remaining CPUs, but might decrease memory locality during - RCU-callback invocation, thus potentially degrading throughput. - - Select this if all CPUs need to be no-CBs CPUs for real-time - or energy-efficiency reasons. - -endchoice - -endmenu # "RCU Subsystem" +source "kernel/rcu/Kconfig" config BUILD_BIN2C bool @@ -1156,6 +809,7 @@ config CGROUP_HUGETLB config CPUSETS bool "Cpuset controller" + depends on SMP help This option will let you create and manage CPUSETs which allow dynamically partitioning a system into sets of CPUs and @@ -1205,11 +859,14 @@ config CGROUP_BPF inet sockets. config CGROUP_DEBUG - bool "Example controller" + bool "Debug controller" default n + depends on DEBUG_KERNEL help This option enables a simple controller that exports - debugging information about the cgroups framework. + debugging information about the cgroups framework.
