sched/core: Introduce SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY sched_domain topology flag Add a topology flag to the sched_domain hierarchy indicating the lowest domain level where the full range of CPU capacities is represented by the domain members for asymmetric capacity topologies (e.g. ARM big.LITTLE). The flag is intended to indicate that extra care should be taken when placing tasks on CPUs and this level spans all the different types of CPUs found in the system (no need to look further up the domain hierarchy). This information is currently only available through iterating through the capacities of all the CPUs at parent levels in the sched_domain hierarchy. SD 2 [ 0 1 2 3] SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY SD 1 [ 0 1] [ 2 3] !SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY CPU: 0 1 2 3 capacity: 756 756 1024 1024 If the topology in the example above is duplicated to create an eight CPU example with third sched_domain level on top (SD 3), this level should not have the flag set (!SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY) as its two group would both have all CPU capacities represented within them.
