+ cpuset.cpus.isolation_full + A read multiple values and write single value file which exists + on root cgroup only. + + This file shows the state of full CPU isolation mode for isolated + CPUs in isolated partitions. It shows either "0' if full CPU + isolation mode is disabled, or "1" followed by a comma-separated + list of additional CPU isolation flags that are enabled. + The currently supported CPU isolation flag is: + + rcu_nocbs + RCU no-callback CPU mode, which prevents such CPUs' + callbacks from being invoked in softirq context. + Invocation of such CPUs' RCU callbacks will instead be + offloaded to "rcuox/N" kthreads created for that purpose. + It is similar in functionality to the "rcu_nocbs" + boot command line option, but for dynamically created + isolated CPUs in isolated partitions. This flag can + only be enabled if such a "rcu_nocbs" option is present + in the boot command line of the running kernel. + + Full CPU isolation mode is enabled by writing a non-zero value + to this file and disabled by writing a zero value to it. + cpuset.cpus.partition A read-write single value file which exists on non-root cpuset-enabled cgroups.
