[PATCH 1/8] sched/fair: combine detach into dequeue when migrating task

From: Chengming Zhou
Date: Sat Jul 09 2022 - 11:16:03 EST


When we are migrating task out of the CPU, we can combine detach and
propagation into dequeue_entity() to save the detach_entity_cfs_rq()
in migrate_task_rq_fair().

This optimization is like combining DO_ATTACH in the enqueue_entity()
when migrating task to the CPU.

So we don't have to traverse the CFS tree extra time to do the
detach_entity_cfs_rq() -> propagate_entity_cfs_rq() call, which
wouldn't be called anymore with this patch's change.

detach_task()
deactivate_task()
dequeue_task_fair()
for_each_sched_entity(se)
dequeue_entity()
update_load_avg() /* (1) */
detach_entity_load_avg()

set_task_cpu()
migrate_task_rq_fair()
detach_entity_cfs_rq() /* (2) */
update_load_avg();
detach_entity_load_avg();
propagate_entity_cfs_rq();
for_each_sched_entity()
update_load_avg()

This patch save the detach_entity_cfs_rq() called in (2) by doing
the detach_entity_load_avg() for a CPU migrating task inside (1)
(the task being the first se in the loop)
