This fixes an issue where fairness is decreased since cfs_rq's can end up not being decayed properly. For two sibling control groups with the same priority, this can often lead to a load ratio of 99/1 (!!). This happen because when a cfs_rq is throttled, all the descendant cfs_rq's will be removed from the leaf list. When they initial cfs_rq is unthrottled, it will currently only re add descendant cfs_rq's if they have one or more entities enqueued. This is not a perfect heuristic. Instead, we insert all cfs_rq's that contain one or more enqueued entities, or it its load is not completely decayed. Can often lead to situations like this for equally weighted control groups: $ ps u -C stress USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 10009 88.8 0.0 3676 100 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:13 stress --cpu 1 root 10023 3.0 0.0 3676 104 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:00 stress --cpu 1 Fixes: 31bc6aeaab1d ("sched/fair: Optimize update_blocked_averages()") Signed-off-by: Odin Ugedal <odin@xxxxxxx> --- Changes since v1: - Replaced cfs_rq field with using tg_load_avg_contrib - Went from 3 to 1 patches; one is merged and one is replaced by a new patchset.
