[PATCH v3 08/15] sched/isolation: Add io_queue housekeeping option

Daniel Wagner dwagner at suse.de
Tue Aug 6 05:06:40 PDT 2024


Multiqueue drivers such as nvme-pci are spreading IO queues on all CPUs
for optimal performance. isolcpu users are usually more concerned about
noise on isolated CPUs. Introduce a new isolcpus mask which allows the
user to define on which CPUs IO queues should be placed.
