I was mostly speaking with the example system in mind (4-node 4-cpu box), but yes, node-level domain does look for imbalance across max 16 nodes as you mention. Both node and all-node domains don't have SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE set, which means idle_balance() will stop looking for imbalance beyonds its own node. Based on the observed balance within its own node, IMO, idle_balance() should not cause ->next_balance to be reset. -- Regards, vatsa - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
