8 * On platforms supporting Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0, (ITMT),
9 * the maximum turbo frequencies of some cores in a CPU package may be
10 * higher than for the other cores in the same package. In that case,
11 * better performance can be achieved by making the scheduler prefer
12 * to run tasks on the CPUs with higher max turbo frequencies.
14 * This file provides functions and data structures for enabling the
15 * scheduler to favor scheduling on cores can be boosted to a higher
16 * frequency under ITMT.
