Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] Reduce stacking and overscheduling
Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2021 10:48:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211028094834.1312-1-mgorman@techsingularity.net> (raw)

Also available at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux.git sched-scalewakegran-v4r1

Changelog since v3
o No code changes, added some additional results to patch 1


These series tackles two problems. The first is that heavy wakers
can stack an excessive number of tasks on the same CPU. The
second is that tasks can overschedule when the task has not
reached its minimum preemption granularity.

The patches are independent but were discussed together in the thread
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210920142614.4891-1-mgorman@techsingularity.net
so are presented together.

With both patches on a zen3 machine
