105 Adaptively try to shutdown the tick whenever possible, even when
106 the CPU is running tasks. Typically this requires running a single
107 task on the CPU. Chances for running tickless are maximized when
108 the task mostly runs in userspace and has few kernel activity.
109
110 You need to fill up the nohz_full boot parameter with the
111 desired range of dynticks CPUs.
112
113 This is implemented at the expense of some overhead in user <-> kernel
114 transitions: syscalls, exceptions and interrupts. Even when it's
115 dynamically off.

129 The major pre-requirement for full dynticks to work is to
130 support the context tracking subsystem. But there are also
131 other dependencies to provide in order to make the full
132 dynticks working.
133
134 This option stands for testing when an arch implements the
135 context tracking backend but doesn't yet fullfill all the
136 requirements to make the full dynticks feature working.
137 Without the full dynticks, there is no way to test the support
138 for context tracking and the subsystems that rely on it: RCU
139 userspace extended quiescent state and tickless cputime
140 accounting. This option copes with the absence of the full
141 dynticks subsystem by forcing the context tracking on all
142 CPUs in the system.
143
144 Say Y only if you're working on the development of an
145 architecture backend for the context tracking.
146
147 Say N otherwise, this option brings an overhead that you
148 don't want in production.
