[CFS Bandwidth Control v4 3/7] sched: throttle cfs_rq entities which exceed their local quota

From: Paul Turner
Date: Tue Feb 15 2011 - 22:20:31 EST


In account_cfs_rq_quota() (via update_curr()) we track consumption versus a
cfs_rq's local quota and whether there is global quota available to continue
enabling it in the event we run out.

This patch adds the required support for the latter case, throttling entities
until quota is available to run. Throttling dequeues the entity in question
and sends a reschedule to the owning cpu so that it can be evicted.

The following restrictions apply to a throttled cfs_rq:
- It is dequeued from sched_entity hierarchy and restricted from being
re-enqueued. This means that new/waking children of this entity will be
queued up to it, but not past it.
- It does not contribute to weight calculations in tg_shares_up
- In the case that the cfs_rq of the cpu we are trying to pull from is throttled
it is is ignored by the loadbalancer in __load_balance_fair() and
move_one_task_fair().
