The current sg->min_capacity tracks the lowest per-CPU compute capacity available in the sched_group when rt/irq pressure is taken into account. Minimum capacity isn't the ideal metric for tracking if a sched_group needs offloading to another sched_group for some scenarios, e.g. a sched_group with multiple CPUs if only one is under heavy pressure. Tracking maximum capacity isn't perfect either but a better choice for some situations as it indicates that the sched_group definitely compute capacity constrained either due to rt/irq pressure on all CPUs or asymmetric CPU capacities (e.g. big.LITTLE).

README
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 Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
