Subject: [patch 0/2] Fix interactivity buglet with autogroup and shares distribution re-write
Date: Wed, 15 Dec 2010 19:10:16 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101216031016.186364650@google.com> (raw)
This should address the interactivity issues reported by Mike Galbraith:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/28/47
The root cause turns out to be a mis-ordering of weight updates and accounting
outstanding execution time.
This is fixed by making update_curr() 'atomic' once more with respect to
accounting, this allows us to then make sure any outstanding time is charged in
the re-weight path (prior to the actual update).
Thank-you to everyone for their patience while we tracked this down,
- Paul
