Kernel for Galaxy S24, rebased on CLO sources (WIP)
89ee048f3c
The update of the share of a cfs_rq is done when its load_avg is updated
but before the group_entity's load_avg has been updated for the past time
slot. This generates wrong load_avg accounting which can be significant
when small tasks are involved in the scheduling.
Let take the example of a task a that is dequeued of its task group A:
root
(cfs_rq)
\
(se)
A
(cfs_rq)
\
(se)
a
Task "a" was the only task in task group A which becomes idle when a is
dequeued.
We have the sequence:
- dequeue_entity a->se
- update_load_avg(a->se)
- dequeue_entity_load_avg(A->cfs_rq, a->se)
- update_cfs_shares(A->cfs_rq)
A->cfs_rq->load.weight == 0
A->se->load.weight is updated with the new share (0 in this case)
- dequeue_entity A->se
- update_load_avg(A->se) but its weight is now null so the last time
slot (up to a tick) will be accounted with a weight of 0 instead of
its real weight during the time slot. The last time slot will be
accounted as an idle one whereas it was a running one.
If the running time of task a is short enough that no tick happens when it
runs, all running time of group entity A->se will be accounted as idle
time.
Instead, we should update the share of a cfs_rq (in fact the weight of its
group entity) only after having updated the load_avg of the group_entity.
update_cfs_shares() now takes the sched_entity as a parameter instead of the
cfs_rq, and the weight of the group_entity is updated only once its load_avg
has been synced with current time.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
