[PATCH v4 07/10] x86/sched: Add SD_ASYM_PACKING flags to x86 ITMT CPU

From: Srinivas Pandruvada <srinivas.pandruvada@linux.intel.com>
Date: 2016-09-21 19:20:38
Also in: linux-acpi, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: Tim Chen <redacted>

Some Intel cores in a package can be boosted to a higher turbo frequency
with ITMT 3.0 technology. The scheduler can use the asymmetric packing
feature to move tasks to the more capable cores.

If ITMT is enabled, add SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to the thread and core
sched domains to enable asymmetric packing.
