[RFC PATCH 04/14] sched: maintain the load contribution of blockedentities
From: Paul Turner
Date: Wed Feb 01 2012 - 20:44:09 EST
We are currently maintaining:
runnable_load(cfs_rq) = \Sum task_load(t)
For all running children t of cfs_rq. While this can be naturally updated for
tasks in a runnable state (as they are scheduled); this does not account for
the load contributed by blocked task entities.
This can be solved by introducing a separate accounting for blocked load:
blocked_load(cfs_rq) = \Sum runnable(b) * weight(b)
Obviously we do not want to iterate over all blocked entities to account for
their decay, we instead observe that:
runnable_load(t) = \Sum p_i*y^i
and that to account for an additional idle period we only need to compute:
y*runnable_load(t).
This means that we can compute all blocked entities at once by evaluating:
blocked_load(cfs_rq)` = y * blocked_load(cfs_rq)
Finally we maintain a decay counter so that when a sleeping entity re-awakens
we can determine how much of its load should be removed from the blocked sum.
