[PATCH v11 8/8] sched/fair: Add latency list

From: Vincent Guittot
Date: Thu Feb 23 2023 - 14:11:43 EST


Add a rb tree for latency sensitive entities so we can schedule the most
sensitive one first even when it failed to preempt current at wakeup or
when it got quickly preempted by another entity of higher priority.

In order to keep fairness, the latency is used once at wakeup to get a
minimum slice and not during the following scheduling slice to prevent
long running entity to got more running time than allocated to his nice
priority.

The rb tree enables to cover the last corner case where latency
sensitive entity can't got schedule quickly after the wakeup.
