[PATCH v2 1/6] sched/fair: Fix value reported by hot tasks pulled in /proc/schedstat

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

 



From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In /proc/schedstat, lb_hot_gained reports the number hot tasks pulled
during load balance. This value is incremented in can_migrate_task()
if the task is migratable and hot. After incrementing the value,
load balancer can still decide not to migrate this task leading to wrong
accounting. Fix this by incrementing stats when hot tasks are detached.
This issue only exists in detach_tasks() where we can decide to not
migrate hot task even if it is migratable. However, in detach_one_task(),
we migrate it unconditionally.

[Swapnil: Handled the case where nr_failed_migrations_hot was not accounted properly and wrote commit log]
