With respect to the previous v6, I've now moved this concept to the
patch where we actually use it for the first time.
In this patch we add system default values, thus a task is now subject
to two possible constraints: the task specific (TS) one or the system
default (SD) one.
The most restrictive of the two must be enforced but we also want to
keep track of the task specific value, while system defaults are
enforce, to restore it when the system defaults are relaxed.
For example:
TS: |.............. 20 .................|
SD: |... 0 ....|..... 40 .....|... 0 ...|
Time: |..........|..............|.........|
t0 t1 t2 t3
Despite the task asking always only for a 20% boost:
- in [t1,t2] we want to boost it to 40% but, right after...
- in [t2,t3] we want to go back to the 20% boost.
The "effective" values allows to efficiently enforce the most
restrictive clamp value for a task at enqueue time by:
- not loosing track of the original request
- don't caring about updating non runnable tasks

Yes, that should be possible... will look into splitting this out in
v8 to have something like:
---8<---
struct uclamp_req {
/* Clamp value "requested" by a scheduling entity */
unsigned int value : bits_per(SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE);
unsigned int bucket_id : bits_per(UCLAMP_BUCKETS);
unsigned int active : 1;
unsigned int user_defined : 1;
}
struct uclamp_eff {
unsigned int value : bits_per(SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE);
unsigned int bucket_id : bits_per(UCLAMP_BUCKETS);
}
struct task_struct {
// ...
#ifdef CONFIG_UCLAMP_TASK
struct uclamp_req uclamp_req[UCLAMP_CNT];
struct uclamp_eff uclamp_eff[UCLAMP_CNT];
#endif
// ...
}
static inline struct uclamp_eff
uclamp_eff_get(struct task_struct *p, unsigned int clamp_id)
{
struct uclamp_eff uc_eff = p->uclamp_eff[clamp_id];
uc_eff.bucket_id = p->uclamp_req[clamp_id].bucket_id;
uc_eff.clamp_value = p->uclamp_req[clamp_id].value;
if (unlikely(uc_eff.clamp_value > uclamp_default[clamp_id].value)) {
uc_eff.clamp_value = uclamp_default[clamp_id].value;
uc_eff.bucket_id = uclamp_default[clamp_id].bucket_id;
}
return uc_eff;
}
static inline void
uclamp_eff_set(struct task_struct *p, unsigned int clamp_id)
{
p->uclamp_eff[clamp_id] = uclamp_eff_get(p, clamp_id);
}
---8<---
Is that what you mean ?
