On some hybrid platforms some efficient CPUs (E-cores) are not connected to the L3 cache, but there are no other differences between them and the other E-cores that use L3. In that case, it is generally more efficient to run "light" workloads on the E-cores that do not use L3 and allow all of the cores using L3, including P-cores, to go into idle states. For this reason, slightly increase the cost for all CPUs sharing the L3 cache to make EAS prefer CPUs that do not use it to the other CPUs of the same type (if any). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
