This is an alternative approach to '[RFC PATCH v2] sched: reflect sched_entity movement into task_group's utilization' which requires '[RFC PATCH] sched: fix hierarchical order in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list'
The patch-set doesn't currently handle the impact of cfs throttling on utilization. [patch 1] sched/fair: Aggregate task utilization only on root cfs_rq Prevent the utilization signal maintenance for se/cfs_rq representing task groups other than root task group. [patch 2] sched/fair: Sync se with root cfs_rq Make sure that the se (of a task) is in sync with the root cfs_rq [patch 3] sched/fair: Change @running of __update_load_avg() to @update_util Pass the information whether utilization (besides load) has to be maintained for the container element of @sa. Dietmar Eggemann (3): sched/fair: Aggregate task utilization only on root cfs_rq sched/fair: Sync se with root cfs_rq sched/fair: Change @running of __update_load_avg() to @update_util kernel/sched/fair.c | 81 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------- 1 file changed, 61 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) -- 1.9.1
