Subject: [PATCH v2] sched/core: Prioritize migrating eligible tasks in sched_balance_rq()
From: Hao Jia <jiahao1@...iang.com>
When the PLACE_LAG scheduling feature is enabled and
dst_cfs_rq->nr_queued is greater than 1, if a task is
ineligible (lag < 0) on the source cpu runqueue, it will
also be ineligible when it is migrated to the destination
cpu runqueue. Because we will keep the original equivalent
lag of the task in place_entity(). So if the task was
ineligible before, it will still be ineligible after
migration.
So in sched_balance_rq(), we prioritize migrating eligible
tasks, and we soft-limit ineligible tasks, allowing them
to migrate only when nr_balance_failed is non-zero to
avoid load-balancing trying very hard to balance the load.
Below are some benchmark test results. From my test results,
this patch shows a slight improvement on hackbench.
Benchmark
=========
All of the benchmarks are done inside a normal cpu cgroup in a
clean environment with cpu turbo disabled, and test machine is:
Single NUMA machine model is 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM)
i7-13700, 12 Core/24 HT.
Based on master b86545e02e8c.
