Subject: [tg_shares_up rewrite v3 08/11] sched: update shares on idle_balance
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2010 19:24:13 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101112032701.947743064@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20101112032405.657789056@google.com

[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-update_shares_on_idle_balance.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 675 bytes --]

Since shares updates are no longer expensive and effectively local, update them
at idle_balance().  This allows us to more quickly redistribute shares to
another cpu when our load becomes idle.
