Hello, Peter. IMHO, this is so tricky. With below change, we can simply do 'offsetof(struct sd_lb_stats, busiest_stat)'. @@ -4546,7 +4546,7 @@ static bool update_sd_pick_busiest(struct lb_env *env, struct sched_group *sg, struct sg_lb_stats *sgs) { - if (sgs->avg_load <= sds->busiest_stat.avg_load) + if (!sds->busiest && sgs->avg_load <= sds->busiest_stat.avg_load) return false; if (sgs->sum_nr_running > sgs->group_capacity) Thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
