Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] sched: Teach scheduler to understand ONRQ_MIGRATING
state
This is new on_rq state for the cases when task is migrating
from one src_rq to another dst_rq, and there is no necessity
to have both RQs locked at the same time.
We will use the state this way:
raw_spin_lock(&src_rq->lock);
dequeue_task(src_rq, p, 0);
p->on_rq = ONRQ_MIGRATING;
set_task_cpu(p, dst_cpu);
raw_spin_unlock(&src_rq->lock);
raw_spin_lock(&dst_rq->lock);
p->on_rq = ONRQ_QUEUED;
enqueue_task(dst_rq, p, 0);
raw_spin_unlock(&dst_rq->lock);
The profit is that double_rq_lock() is not needed now,
and this may reduce the latencies in some situations.
The logic of try_to_wake_up() remained the same as it
was. Its behaviour changes in a small subset of cases
(when preempted task in ~TASK_RUNNING state is queued
on rq and we are migrating it to another).
We add a loop in the beginning of set_cpus_allowed_ptr.
It's like a handmade spinlock, which is similar
to situation we had before. We used to spin on rq->lock,
now we spin on "again:" label. Of course, it's worse
than arch-dependent spinlock, but we have to have it
here. The function is synchronic, and users used to be
sure that task is using new allowed cpu mask after we
returned. It seems there won't be any signify performance
losses.
I try to seek performance-critical places where we use
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). Maybe update_migrate_disable()
in RT patch. But it's called the way where the state
ONRQ_MIGRATING is not possible. So, this everything
looks fine for me.
v2: cpu_relax() in set_cpus_allowed_ptr(),
on_rq check in switched_from_fair(),
fixed wrong "unlikely" braces,
task_migrating() primitive,
commentaries.
