This works well for short running +tasks. + +The existence of long running tasks on one of the involved cpus lets +the system operate over its tipping point. To be able to move such +a task (whose load can't be used to average the load among the cpus) +from a src cpu with lower capacity than the dst_cpu, an additional +rule has to be implemented in need_active_balance. + +Signed-off-by: Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com> +(cherry picked from commit e604c981fa91a5e5522cd4a5a057880ab54d374c) +Signed-off-by: Gaku Inami <gaku.inami.xw@bp.renesas.com> +--- + kernel/sched/fair.c | 4 ++++ + 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) + +diff --git a/kernel/sched/fair.c b/kernel/sched/fair.c +index 3c193f5..360e922 100644 +--- a/kernel/sched/fair.c ++++ b/kernel/sched/fair.c +@@ -8103,6 +8103,10 @@ static struct sched_group *find_busiest_group(struct lb_env *env) + * this level. + */ + update_sd_lb_stats(env, &sds); ++ ++ if (energy_aware() && !env->dst_rq->rd->overutilized) ++ goto out_balanced; ++ + local = &sds.local_stat; + busiest = &sds.busiest_stat; + +-- +1.9.1 + |
