Subject: [RFC PATCH 07/11] sched: Add proxy execution
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>
A task currently holding a mutex (executing a critical section) might
find benefit in using scheduling contexts of other tasks blocked on the
same mutex if they happen to have higher priority of the current owner
(e.g., to prevent priority inversions).
Proxy execution lets a task do exactly that: if a mutex owner has
waiters, it can use waiters' scheduling context to potentially continue
running if preempted.
The basic mechanism is implemented by this patch, the core of which
resides in the proxy() function. Potential proxies (i.e., tasks blocked
on a mutex) are not dequeued, so, if one of them is actually selected by
schedule() as the next task to be put to run on a CPU, proxy() is used
to walk the blocked_on relation and find which task (mutex owner) might
be able to use the proxy's scheduling context.
Here come the tricky bits. In fact, owner task might be in all sort of
states when a proxy is found (blocked, executing on a different CPU,
etc.). Details on how to handle different situations are to be found in
proxy() code comments.
