Re: [PATCH] [sched] Don't account time after deadline twice
We calculate difference between two readings of a clock to see how
much time has elapsed. Part of the time between rq_clock(rq) -
dl_se->deadline can indeed be accounted for by reading a different
clock
(i.e., rq_clock_task()) if the task was running during the period.
And that is how dl_se->runtime is obtained. After all, both clocks are
running independently, right? Furthermore, the caller of
dl_runtime_exceeded() will still use rq_clock() and dl_se->deadline to
determine if we throttle or replenish. Anyway, I have failed to see
any steal of time. Could you please give a concrete example (perhaps
with numbers)?
thanks,

But, we decrement dl_se->runtime looking at rq_clock_task(rq), that is
in general <= rq_clock(rq), that we use to handle deadlines. So, if we
do like you suggest, in some cases we could end up stealing some
bandwidth from the system. Indeed, we prefer some pessimism here.
