- cpu0_hotplug [X86] Turn on CPU0 hotplug feature when
- CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 is off.
- Some features depend on CPU0. Known dependencies are:
- 1. Resume from suspend/hibernate depends on CPU0.
- Suspend/hibernate will fail if CPU0 is offline and you
- need to online CPU0 before suspend/hibernate.
- 2. PIC interrupts also depend on CPU0. CPU0 can't be
- removed if a PIC interrupt is detected.
- It's said poweroff/reboot may depend on CPU0 on some
- machines although I haven't seen such issues so far
- after CPU0 is offline on a few tested machines.
- If the dependencies are under your control, you can
- turn on cpu0_hotplug.
-
cpuidle.off=1 [CPU_IDLE]
disable the cpuidle sub-system
on every CPU online, such as boot, and resume from suspend.
Default: 10000
+ cpuhp.parallel=
+ [SMP] Enable/disable parallel bringup of secondary CPUs
+ Format: <bool>
+ Default is enabled if CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PARALLEL=y. Otherwise
+ the parameter has no effect.

crash_kexec_post_notifiers
Run kdump after running panic-notifiers and dumping
kmsg. This only for the users who doubt kdump always
the propagation of recent CPU-hotplug changes up
the rcu_node combining tree.
- rcutree.use_softirq= [KNL]
- If set to zero, move all RCU_SOFTIRQ processing to
- per-CPU rcuc kthreads. Defaults to a non-zero
- value, meaning that RCU_SOFTIRQ is used by default.
- Specify rcutree.use_softirq=0 to use rcuc kthreads.
-
- But note that CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y kernels disable
- this kernel boot parameter, forcibly setting it
- to zero.
-
- rcutree.rcu_fanout_exact= [KNL]
- Disable autobalancing of the rcu_node combining
- tree. This is used by rcutorture, and might
- possibly be useful for architectures having high
- cache-to-cache transfer latencies.
-
- rcutree.rcu_fanout_leaf= [KNL]
- Change the number of CPUs assigned to each
- leaf rcu_node structure. Useful for very
- large systems, which will choose the value 64,
- and for NUMA systems with large remote-access
- latencies, which will choose a value aligned
- with the appropriate hardware boundaries.
-
- rcutree.rcu_min_cached_objs= [KNL]
- Minimum number of objects which are cached and
- maintained per one CPU. Object size is equal
- to PAGE_SIZE. The cache allows to reduce the
- pressure to page allocator, also it makes the
- whole algorithm to behave better in low memory
- condition.
-
- rcutree.rcu_delay_page_cache_fill_msec= [KNL]
- Set the page-cache refill delay (in milliseconds)
- in response to low-memory conditions. The range
- of permitted values is in the range 0:100000.
-
rcutree.jiffies_till_first_fqs= [KNL]
Set delay from grace-period initialization to
first attempt to force quiescent states.
When RCU_NOCB_CPU is set, also adjust the
priority of NOCB callback kthreads.
- rcutree.rcu_divisor= [KNL]
- Set the shift-right count to use to compute
- the callback-invocation batch limit bl from
- the number of callbacks queued on this CPU.
- The result will be bounded below by the value of
- the rcutree.blimit kernel parameter. Every bl
- callbacks, the softirq handler will exit in
- order to allow the CPU to do other work.
-
- Please note that this callback-invocation batch
- limit applies only to non-offloaded callback
- invocation. Offloaded callbacks are instead
- invoked in the context of an rcuoc kthread, which
- scheduler will preempt as it does any other task.
-
rcutree.nocb_nobypass_lim_per_jiffy= [KNL]
On callback-offloaded (rcu_nocbs) CPUs,
RCU reduces the lock contention that would
the ->nocb_bypass queue. The definition of "too
many" is supplied by this kernel boot parameter.
- rcutree.rcu_nocb_gp_stride= [KNL]
- Set the number of NOCB callback kthreads in
- each group, which defaults to the square root
- of the number of CPUs. Larger numbers reduce
- the wakeup overhead on the global grace-period
- kthread, but increases that same overhead on
- each group's NOCB grace-period kthread.

rcutree.qhimark= [KNL]
Set threshold of queued RCU callbacks beyond which
batch limiting is disabled.

Cause the grace-period kthread to get an extra

WARN_ONCE() splat and an ftrace_dump().
+ rcutree.rcu_resched_ns= [KNL]

rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay= [KNL]
In CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y kernels,

rcu_node tree with an eye towards determining
why a new grace period has not yet started.
