The max utilization defines 709 the maximum frequency a task should use while the min utilization 710 defines the minimum frequency it should use. 711 712 Both min and max utilization clamp values are hints to the scheduler, 713 aiming at improving its frequency selection policy, but they do not 714 enforce or grant any specific bandwidth for tasks. 715 716 If in doubt, say N. 717 718config UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT 719 int "Number of supported utilization clamp buckets" 720 range 5 20 721 default 5 722 depends on UCLAMP_TASK 723 help 724 Defines the number of clamp buckets to use. The range of each bucket 725 will be SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE/UCLAMP_BUCKETS_COUNT. The higher the 726 number of clamp buckets the finer their granularity and the higher 727 the precision of clamping aggregation and tracking at run-time. 728 729 For example, with the minimum configuration value we will have 5 730 clamp buckets tracking 20% utilization each. A 25% boosted tasks will 731 be refcounted in the [20..39]% bucket and will set the bucket clamp 732 effective value to 25%. 733 If a second 30% boosted task should be co-scheduled on the same CPU, 734 that task will be refcounted in the same bucket of the first task and 735 it will boost the bucket clamp effective value to 30%. 736 The clamp effective value of a bucket is reset to its nominal value 737 (20% in the example above) when there are no more tasks refcounted in 738 that bucket. 739 740 An additional boost/capping margin can be added to some tasks. In the 741 example above the 25% task will be boosted to 30% until it exits the 742 CPU. If that should be considered not acceptable on certain systems, 743 it's always possible to reduce the margin by increasing the number of 744 clamp buckets to trade off used memory for run-time tracking 745 precision. 746 747 If in doubt, use the default value. 748 749endmenu 750 751# 752# For architectures that want to enable the support for NUMA-affine scheduler 753# balancing logic: 754# 755config ARCH_SUPPORTS_NUMA_BALANCING 756 bool 757 758# 759# For architectures that prefer to flush all TLBs after a number of pages 760# are unmapped instead of sending one IPI per page to flush.
