Subject: [PATCH] sched: Update task group load contributions during active load-balancing
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2014 01:07:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410826030-26301-1-git-send-email-morten.rasmussen@arm.com> (raw)
Task group load-contributions are not updated when tasks belonging to
task groups are migrated by active load-balancing. If no other task
belonging to the same task group is already queued at the destination
cpu the group sched_entity will be enqueued with load_avg_contrib=0.
Hence, weighted_cpuload() won't reflect the newly added load.
The load may remain invisible until the next tick, when the sched_entity
load_avg_contrib and task group contributions are reevaluated.
The enqueue loop
for_each_entity(se) {
enqueue_entity(cfs_rq,se)
...
enqueue_entity_load_avg(cfs_rq,se)
...
update_entity_load_avg(se)
...
__update_entity_load_avg_contrib(se)
...
...
update_cfs_rq_blocked_load(cfs_rq)
...
__update_cfs_rq_tg_load_contrib(cfs_rq)
...
}
currently skips __update_entity_load_avg_contrib() and
__update_cfs_rq_tg_load_contrib() for group entities for active
load-balance migrations. The former updates the sched_entity
load_avg_contrib, and the latter updates the task group contribution
which is needed by the former. They must both be called to ensure that
load doesn't temporarily disappear.
