Subject: [RESEND RFC PATCH v2 02/29] sched/fair: Use rq->nohz_tick_stopped in update_nohz_stats()
Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2025 09:26:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251208092744.32737-2-kprateek.nayak@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251208083602.31898-1-kprateek.nayak@amd.com>

"rq->nohz_tick_stopped" always follows the state of CPU on
"nohz.idle_cpus_mask". Use the local rq indicator instead of checking
for the CPU on the "idle_cpus_mask".

Use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() for "rq->nohz_tick_stopped" to ensure
update_nohz_stats() always sees the latest value.

This cleanup is necessary to avoid the number of references to the
global "nohz.idle_cpus_mask" to ease the transition to a distributed
nohz idle tracking strategy.

No functional changes intended.
