+- **isolcpus=<cpu number>-<cpu number>** used for all cpu cores apart from\r
+ first core of each socket used for running VPP worker threads and Qemu/LXC\r
+ processes\r
+ https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt\r
+- **intel_pstate=disable** - [X86] Do not enable intel_pstate as the default\r
+ scaling driver for the supported processors. Intel P-State driver decide what\r
+ P-state (CPU core power state) to use based on requesting policy from the\r
+ cpufreq core. [X86 - Either 32-bit or 64-bit x86]\r
+ https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cpu-freq/intel-pstate.txt\r
+- **nohz_full=<cpu number>-<cpu number>** - [KNL,BOOT] In kernels built with\r
+ CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y, set the specified list of CPUs whose tick will be stopped\r
+ whenever possible. The boot CPU will be forced outside the range to maintain\r
+ the timekeeping. The CPUs in this range must also be included in the\r
+ rcu_nocbs= set. Specifies the adaptive-ticks CPU cores, causing kernel to\r
+ avoid sending scheduling-clock interrupts to listed cores as long as they have\r
+ a single runnable task. [KNL - Is a kernel start-up parameter, SMP - The\r
+ kernel is an SMP kernel].\r
+ https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/timers/NO_HZ.txt\r
+- **rcu_nocbs** - [KNL] In kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y, set the\r
+ specified list of CPUs to be no-callback CPUs, that never queue RCU callbacks\r
+ (read-copy update).\r
