[RFC PATCH v1 8/8] sched/deadline: make bandwidth enforcement scale-invariant

Juri Lelli
2017-07-05T09:01:03Z

Apply frequency and cpu scale-invariance correction factor to bandwidth
enforcement (similar to what we already do to fair utilization tracking).

Each delta_exec gets scaled considering current frequency and maximum
cpu capacity; which means that the reservation runtime parameter (that
need to be specified profiling the task execution at max frequency on
biggest capacity core) gets thus scaled accordingly.
