Linux 7.2 Expected to Integrate Cache Aware Scheduling for CPU Performance
Cache Aware Scheduling support is anticipated for inclusion in the upcoming Linux 7.2 kernel. This feature is designed to enhance Linux performance on contemporary CPUs equipped with multiple last level caches. According to a report by Phoronix today, the necessary CONFIG_SCHED_CACHE configuration and associated code have been incorporated into a TIP branch. The merge window for Linux 7.2 is expected to open in approximately one month, indicating that Cache Aware Scheduling is on track for this kernel release.
