11  * Hierarchical metaflags
12  *
13  * SHARED_CHILD: These flags are meant to be set from the base domain upwards.
14  * If a domain has this flag set, all of its children should have it set. This
15  * is usually because the flag describes some shared resource (all CPUs in that
16  * domain share the same resource), or because they are tied to a scheduling
17  * behaviour that we want to disable at some point in the hierarchy for
18  * scalability reasons.
19  *
20  * In those cases it doesn't make sense to have the flag set for a domain but
21  * not have it in (some of) its children: sched domains ALWAYS span their child
22  * domains, so operations done with parent domains will cover CPUs in the lower
23  * child domains.
24  *
25  *
26  * SHARED_PARENT: These flags are meant to be set from the highest domain
27  * downwards. If a domain has this flag set, all of its parents should have it
28  * set. This is usually for topology properties that start to appear above a
29  * certain level (e.g. domain starts spanning CPUs outside of the base CPU's
30  * socket).
