Subject: [PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 0/2] NOCB kthread economization patches
Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2014 03:06:04 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140714100604.GA9905@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Hello!

This series provides a couple of patches that reduce the number of rcuo
kthreads in cases where nr_cpu_ids is larger than the actual number of
online CPUs.

1.	Preparation patch that rationalizes RCU's creation of early-boot
	kthreads.

2.	Instead of creation rcuo kthreads for each possible CPU, create
	them only for those CPUs that have come online at least once
	since boot.

							Thanx, Paul
