I'm seeing some bad scheduler behavior with this patch. I've seen
occasional bad behavior with 2.6.29-rt as well, but with .31-rt its
much worse.

I'm running a SCHED_OTHER cpubound benchmark  (censored to
xxxxxxxxxxxxx in the logs) that runs for a number of minutes. With
2.6.31-rc6 I'm seeing really poor numbers and if I cat
/proc/sched_debug I see all of the cpu bound tasks are  running on the
same cpu, while the other procs are basically idle. See the log below:

Any thoughts on how to debug this?

thanks
