Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/6] sched/dl: Improve deadline admission control for asymmetric CPU capacities
From: luca abeni <luca.abeni@...tannapisa.it>
Currently, the SCHED_DEADLINE admission control ensures that the
sum of reserved CPU bandwidths is smaller than x * M, where the
reserved CPU bandwidth of a SCHED_DEADLINE task is defined as the
ratio between its runtime and its period, x is a user-definable
percentage (95% by default, can be controlled through
/proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_{runtime,period}_us) and M is the number
of CPU cores.
This admission control works well (guaranteeing bounded tardiness
for SCHED_DEADLINE tasks and non-starvation of non SCHED_DEADLINE
tasks) for homogeneous systems (where all the CPU cores have the
same computing capacity), but ends up over-allocating the CPU time
in presence of less-powerful CPU cores.
It can be easily shown how on asymmetric CPU capacity architectures
(such as ARM big.LITTLE) SCHED_DEADLINE tasks can easily starve all the
other tasks, making the system unusable.
This commit fixes the issue by explicitly considering the cores'
capacities in the admission test (where "M" is replaced by the sum
of all the capacities of cores in the root domain).
