3.16.78-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Liangyan <liangyan.peng@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 5e2d2cc2588bd3307ce3937acbc2ed03c830a861 upstream.
do_sched_cfs_period_timer() will refill cfs_b runtime and call
distribute_cfs_runtime to unthrottle cfs_rq, sometimes cfs_b->runtime
will allocate all quota to one cfs_rq incorrectly, then other cfs_rqs
attached to this cfs_b can't get runtime and will be throttled.
We find that one throttled cfs_rq has non-negative
cfs_rq->runtime_remaining and cause an unexpetced cast from s64 to u64
in snippet:
distribute_cfs_runtime() {
runtime = -cfs_rq->runtime_remaining + 1;
}
The runtime here will change to a large number and consume all
cfs_b->runtime in this cfs_b period.
According to Ben Segall, the throttled cfs_rq can have
account_cfs_rq_runtime called on it because it is throttled before
idle_balance, and the idle_balance calls update_rq_clock to add time
that is accounted to the task.
This commit prevents cfs_rq to be assgined new runtime if it has been
throttled until that distribute_cfs_runtime is called.
