[RFCv2 PATCH 19/23] sched: Task wakeup tracking

From: Morten Rasmussen
Date: Thu Jul 03 2014 - 12:27:44 EST


Track task wakeup rate in wakeup_avg_sum by counting wakeups. Note that
this is _not_ cpu wakeups (idle exits). Task wakeups only cause cpu
wakeups if the cpu is idle when the task wakeup occurs.

The wakeup rate decays over time at the same rate as used for the
existing entity load tracking. Unlike runnable_avg_sum, wakeup_avg_sum
is counting events, not time, and is therefore theoretically unbounded
and should be used with care.
