The code in find_idlest_cpu() looks for the CPU with the smallest load. However, if multiple CPUs are idle, the first idle CPU is selected irrespective of the depth of its idle state. Among the idle CPUs we should pick the one with with the shallowest idle state, or the latest to have gone idle if all idle CPUs are in the same state. The later applies even when cpuidle is configured out. This patch doesn't cover the following issues: - The idle exit latency of a CPU might be larger than the time needed to migrate the waking task to an already running CPU with sufficient capacity, and therefore performance would benefit from task packing in such case (in most cases task packing is about power saving). - Some idle states have a non negligible and non abortable entry latency which needs to run to completion before the exit latency can start. A concurrent patch series is making this info available to the cpuidle core. Once available, the entry latency with the idle timestamp could determine when the exit latency may be effective. Those issues will be handled in due course. In the mean time, what is implemented here should improve things already compared to the current state of affairs. Based on an initial patch from Daniel Lezcano.
