From b85d0667268320072ccdeb07c27c25b300ab3724 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Sun, 16 Mar 2008 20:03:22 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sched: introduce SCHED_FEAT_SYNC_WAKEUPS, turn it off turn off sync wakeups by default. They are not needed anymore - the buddy logic should be smart enough to keep the system from overscheduling.
