From d94d105329e4a8a874853b5bd854b6587c41adda Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org> Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2017 19:18:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sched/isolation: Document boot parameters dependency on CONFIG_CPU_ISOLATION=y The "isolcpus=" and "nohz_full=" boot parameters depend on CPU Isolation support. Let's document that.
