Subject: [tg_shares_up rewrite v4 05/11] sched: fix update_cfs_load synchronization
Date: Mon, 15 Nov 2010 15:47:04 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101115234937.933428187@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20101115234659.610333554@google.com
[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-fix-update_cfs_load.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4112 bytes --]
Using cfs_rq->nr_running is not sufficient to synchronize update_cfs_load with
the put path since nr_running accounting occurs at deactivation.
It's also not safe to make the removal decision based on load_avg as this fails
with both high periods and low shares. Resolve this by clipping history after
4 periods without activity.
Note: the above will always occur from update_shares() since in the
last-task-sleep-case that task will still be cfs_rq->curr when update_cfs_load
is called.
