[Patch v10 7/9] sched/fair: update cpu_capacity to reflect thermal pressure

From: Thara Gopinath
Date: Fri Feb 21 2020 - 19:52:33 EST


cpu_capacity initially reflects the maximum possible capacity of a cpu.
Thermal pressure on a cpu means this maximum possible capacity is
unavailable due to thermal events. This patch subtracts the average
thermal pressure for a cpu from its maximum possible capacity so that
cpu_capacity reflects the remaining maximum capacity.

v8->v9:
- Use thermal_load_avg to read rq->avg_thermal.load_avg.
