[PATCH v4 11/16] sched/core: uclamp: add system default clamps

Patrick Bellasi
2018-08-28T13:56:05Z

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.

Each task has now by default:
task_struct::uclamp::value = UCLAMP_NOT_VALID
unless:
- the task has been forked from a parent with a valid clamp and
!SCHED_FLAG_RESET_ON_FORK
- the task has got a task-specific value set via sched_setattr()

A task with a UCLAMP_NOT_VALID clamp value is refcounted considering the
system default clamps if either we do not have task group support or
they are part of the root_task_group.
Tasks without a task specific clamp value in a child task group will be
refcounted instead considering the task group clamps.

Changes in v4:
Message-ID: <20180820122728.GM2960@e110439-lin>
- fix unwanted reset of clamp values on refcount success
Others:
- by default all tasks have a UCLAMP_NOT_VALID task specific clamp
- always use:
p->uclamp[clamp_id].effective.value
to track the actual clamp value the task has been refcounted into.
This matches with the usage of
p->uclamp[clamp_id].effective.group_id
- rebased on v4.19-rc1
