+ depends on DISABLE_CPU_SCHED_DOMAIN_BALANCE && SCHED_MC && FAIR_GROUP_SCHED && !SCHED_AUTOGROUP
+ help
+ Experimental scheduler optimizations for heterogeneous platforms.
+ Attempts to introspectively select task affinity to optimize power
+ and performance. Basic support for multiple (>2) cpu types is in place,
+ but it has only been tested with two types of cpus.
+ There is currently no support for migration of task groups, hence
+ !SCHED_AUTOGROUP. Furthermore, normal load-balancing must be disabled
+ between cpus of different type (DISABLE_CPU_SCHED_DOMAIN_BALANCE).
+ When turned on, this option adds sys/kernel/hmp directory which
+ contains the following files:
+ up_threshold - the load average threshold used for up migration
+ (0 - 1023)
+ down_threshold - the load average threshold used for down migration
+ (0 - 1023)
+ hmp_domains - a list of cpumasks for the present HMP domains,
+ starting with the 'biggest' and ending with the
+ 'smallest'.
+ Note that both the threshold files can be written at runtime to
+ control scheduler behaviour.

+config SCHED_HMP_PRIO_FILTER
+ bool "(EXPERIMENTAL) Filter HMP migrations by task priority"

+config HMP_VARIABLE_SCALE
+ bool "Allows changing the load tracking scale through sysfs"
+ depends on SCHED_HMP
+ help
+ When turned on, this option exports the load average period value
+ for the load tracking patches through sysfs.
+ The values can be modified to change the rate of load accumulation
+ used for HMP migration. 'load_avg_period_ms' is the time in ms to
+ reach a load average of 0.5 for an idle task of 0 load average
+ ratio which becomes 100% busy.
+ For example, with load_avg_period_ms = 128 and up_threshold = 512,
+ a running task with a load of 0 will be migrated to a bigger CPU after
+ 128ms, because after 128ms its load_avg_ratio is 0.5 and the real
+ up_threshold is 0.5.
+ This patch has the same behavior as changing the Y of the load
+ average computation to
+ (1002/1024)^(LOAD_AVG_PERIOD/load_avg_period_ms)
+ but removes intermediate overflows in computation.
+
+config HMP_FREQUENCY_INVARIANT_SCALE
+ bool "(EXPERIMENTAL) Frequency-Invariant Tracked Load for HMP"
+ depends on SCHED_HMP && CPU_FREQ
+ help
+ Scales the current load contribution in line with the frequency
+ of the CPU that the task was executed on.
+ In this version, we use a simple linear scale derived from the
+ maximum frequency reported by CPUFreq.
+ Restricting tracked load to be scaled by the CPU's frequency
+ represents the consumption of possible compute capacity
+ (rather than consumption of actual instantaneous capacity as
+ normal) and allows the HMP migration's simple threshold
+ migration strategy to interact more predictably with CPUFreq's
+ asynchronous compute capacity changes.

+config SCHED_HMP_LITTLE_PACKING

+ help
+ Allows the HMP Scheduler to pack small tasks into CPUs in the

+ Controlled by two sysfs files in sys/kernel/hmp.
+ packing_enable: 1 to enable, 0 to disable packing. Default 1.
+ packing_limit: runqueue load ratio where a RQ is considered
