[PATCH v6 0/5] sched/deadline: fix cpusets bandwidth accounting

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

v6 of a series of patches, originally authored by Mathieu, with the intent
of fixing a long standing issue of SCHED_DEADLINE bandwidth accounting.
As originally reported by Steve [1], when hotplug and/or (certain)
cpuset reconfiguration operations take place, DEADLINE bandwidth
accounting information is lost since root domains are destroyed and
recreated.

Mathieu's approach is based on restoring bandwidth accounting info on
the newly created root domains by iterating through the (DEADLINE) tasks
belonging to the configured cpuset(s).

Apart from some minor refactoring needed to rebase the set on top of
Waiman Long's cpuset for cgroup series (now mainline), two changes worth
of notice:

 - added some more descriptive comments about why callback_lock gives
   the holder read-only access to cpusets [Steve] 04/05
 - call cgroup_enable_task_cg_list if we need to traverse the list of
   tasks belonging to a particular cgroup (to rebuild its bandwidth),
   but such list is not yet ready (this can for example happen if CPUs
   are hotplugged during early boot stages) 05/05

Thanks,
