Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] sched/freq: move call to cpufreq_update_util
Le Tuesday 12 Nov 2019 à 15:48:13 (+0100), Vincent Guittot a écrit :
> update_cfs_rq_load_avg() calls cfs_rq_util_change() everytime pelt decays,
> which might be inefficient when cpufreq driver has rate limitation.
>
> When a task is attached on a CPU, we have call path:
>
> update_blocked_averages()
> update_cfs_rq_load_avg()
> cfs_rq_util_change -- > trig frequency update
> attach_entity_load_avg()
> cfs_rq_util_change -- > trig frequency update
>
> The 1st frequency update will not take into account the utilization of the
> newly attached task and the 2nd one might be discard because of rate
> limitation of the cpufreq driver.
>
> update_cfs_rq_load_avg() is only called by update_blocked_averages()
> and update_load_avg() so we can move the call to
> {cfs_rq,cpufreq}_util_change() into these 2 functions. It's also
> interesting to notice that update_load_avg() already calls directly
> cfs_rq_util_change() for !SMP case.

> This changes will also ensure that cpufreq_update_util() is called even
> when there is no more CFS rq in the leaf_cfs_rq_list to update but only
> irq, rt or dl pelt signals.
