This option keeps the tick running periodically at a constant
rate, even when the CPU doesn't need it.

help
This option enables a tickless idle system: timer interrupts
will only trigger on an as-needed basis when the system is idle.
This is usually interesting for energy saving.
Most of the time you want to say Y here.

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

config NO_HZ_FULL_ALL
bool "Full dynticks system on all CPUs by default"
depends on NO_HZ_FULL
help
If the user doesn't pass the nohz_full boot option to
define the range of full dynticks CPUs, consider that all
CPUs in the system are full dynticks by default.
Note the boot CPU will still be kept outside the range to
handle the timekeeping duty.

bool "Old Idle dynticks config"
depends on !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET && GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS
help
This is the old config entry that enables dynticks idle.
We keep it around for a little while to enforce backward
compatibility with older config files.

This option enables high resolution timer support. If your
hardware is not capable then this option only increases
the size of the kernel image.
