      sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing code · 0437e109
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      the SMP load-balancer uses the boot-time migration-cost estimation
      code to attempt to improve the quality of balancing. The reason for
      this code is that the discrete priority queues do not preserve
      the order of scheduling accurately, so the load-balancer skips
      tasks that were running on a CPU 'recently'.
      
      this code is fundamental fragile: the boot-time migration cost detector
      doesnt really work on systems that had large L3 caches, it caused boot
      delays on large systems and the whole cache-hot concept made the
      balancing code pretty undeterministic as well.
      
      (and hey, i wrote most of it, so i can say it out loud that it sucks ;-)
      
      under CFS the same purpose of cache affinity can be achieved without
      any special cache-hot special-case: tasks are sorted in the 'timeline'
      tree and the SMP balancer picks tasks from the left side of the
      tree, thus the most cache-cold task is balanced automatically.
