Subject: [PATCH] sched: fix incorrect PELT values on SMT
Date: Thu, 18 Aug 2016 18:55:41 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1471571741-19504-1-git-send-email-smuckle@linaro.org> (raw)
PELT scales its util_sum and util_avg values via
arch_scale_cpu_capacity(). If that function is passed the CPU's sched
domain then it will reduce the scaling capacity if SD_SHARE_CPUCAPACITY
is set. PELT does not pass in the sd however. The other caller of
arch_scale_cpu_capacity, update_cpu_capacity(), does. This means
util_sum and util_avg scale beyond the CPU capacity on SMT.
On an Intel i7-3630QM for example rq->cpu_capacity_orig is 589 but
util_avg scales up to 1024.
Fix this by passing in the sd in __update_load_avg() as well.
