Subject: [PATCH] sched: Update runnable propagation rule
Unlike running, the runnable part can't be directly propagated through
the hierarchy when we migrate a task. The main reason is that runnable
time can be shared with other sched_entities that stay on the rq and this
runnable time will also remain on prev cfs_rq and must not be removed.
Instead, we can estimate what should be the new runnable of the prev cfs_rq
and check that this estimation stay in a possible range.
The prop_runnable_sum is a good estimation when adding runnable_sum but
fails most often when we remove it. Instead, we could use the formula below
instead:
gcfs_rq's runnable_sum = gcfs_rq->avg.load_sum / gcfs_rq->load.weight (1)
(1) assumes that tasks are equally runnable which is not true but easy to
compute.
Beside these estimates, we have several simple rules that help us to filter
out wrong ones:
-ge->avg.runnable_sum <= than LOAD_AVG_MAX
-ge->avg.runnable_sum >= ge->avg.running_sum (ge->avg.util_sum << LOAD_AVG_MAX)
-ge->avg.runnable_sum can't increase when we detach a task
