NO_HZ means/meant don't deliver timer/preemption interrupts to idle or single process cpus when there are multiple cpus. The boot cpu always uses HZ_NNN, the other cpus (if there are any -- there aren't on my quasi-i486 box) may or may not depending on process contention. NO_HZ_IDLE is more suggestive. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
