[PATCH v3 12/14] sched/core: uclamp: add system default clamps

Patrick Bellasi
2018-08-06T16:41:10Z

Clamp values cannot be tuned at the root cgroup level. Moreover, because
of the delegation model requirements and how the parent clamps
propagation works, if we want to enable subgroups to set a non null
util.min, we need to be able to configure the root group util.min to the
allow the maximum utilization (SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE = 1024).

Unfortunately this setup will also mean that all tasks running in the
root group, will always get a maximum util.min clamp, unless they have a
lower task specific clamp which is definitively not a desirable default
configuration.

Let's fix this by explicitly adding a system default configuration
(sysctl_sched_uclamp_util_{min,max}) which works as a restrictive clamp
for all tasks running on the root group.

This interface is available independently from cgroups, thus providing a
complete solution for system wide utilization clamping configuration.
