Hi all,

When CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED and CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED are enabled, with:

 echo 10000 > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_period_us

We get this:

[PATCH 03/10] sched: rt-group: heirarchy aware throttle

[Peter Zijlstra]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-rt-throttle-fix.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3750 bytes --]

The bandwidth throttle code dequeues a group when it runs out of quota, and
re-queues it once the period rolls over and the quota gets refreshed.

Sadly it failed to take the hierarchy into consideration. Share more of the
enqueue/dequeue code with regular task opterations.

Also, some operations like sched_setscheduler() can dequeue/enqueue tasks that
are in throttled runqueues, we should not inadvertly re-enqueue empty runqueues
so check for that.

[PATCH 04/10] sched: rt-group: fix RR buglet

[Peter Zijlstra]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-rt-rr-throttle-fix.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1064 bytes --]

In tick_task_rt() we first call update_curr_rt() which can dequeue a runqueue
due to it running out of runtime, and then we try to requeue it, of it also 
having exhausted its RR quota. Obviously requeueing something that is no longer
on the runqueue will not have the expected result.

[PATCH 07/10] sched: rt: fix SMP bandwidth balancing for throttled groups

[Peter Zijlstra]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-rt-bw-balance-fix.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2792 bytes --]

We didn't balance the runtime when throttled, this can cause large wakeup
latencies. Suppose a task is migrated to another cpu right before the group
quota runs out - its likely that the previuos cpu had a large amount of the
group runtime, whereas the new cpu would be almost depleted (due to it being 
handed the other cpu).

Now we exceed the runtime and get throttled - the period rollover tick will
subtract the cpu quota from the runtime and check if we're below quota. However
with this cpu having a very small portion of the runtime it will not refresh
as fast as it should.

Therefore, also rebalance the runtime when we're throttled.

[PATCH 10/10] sched: rt: dont stop the period timer when there are tasks wanting to run

[Peter Zijlstra]

[-- Attachment #1: sched-rt-fix-timer-idle.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 817 bytes --]

When a runnable group failed to get any runtime within a period it would be
found idle and the period timer would be stopped.

So if the group ever gets throttled, it will never wake up again.

I think this should go into .26 as well, due to the non-intuitiveness
of the knobs that cause this if they are fiddled with in the wrong way.
