Subject: [PATCH 3/3] sched: make runtime balancing code more EDF-friendly
The old runtime balancing code logic does not work too well when using
EDF to schedule runqueues. One of the problems is that the old throttling
code had only one timer to handle budget replenishments; EDF needs per-cpu
timers, not in sync among themselves.
This patch changes balance_runtime() to work in push or pull mode: 1) when
an rt_rq needs extra runtime, it tries to borrow it from its siblings, and
2) when an rt_rq has some borroewed runtime, it tries to distribute it
among the rt_rq's needing it. This change improves things a little bit,
making easier to redistribute bandwidth when the load on the various
rt_rq's changes; anyway this is far from being an optimal solution.
I think we need (intependently from this patchset) to make the balancing
logic cooperate with (or at least aware of) task push/pulls and define
more formally the objectives of the runtime migration policy.
