From b5179ac70de85ef477cedf8b026a57913754cf1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 11 May 2016 16:10:34 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: Prepare to fix fairness problems on migration Mike reported that our recent attempt to fix migration problems: 3a47d5124a95 ("sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration") broke interactivity and the signal starve test. We reverted that commit and now let's try it again more carefully, with some other underlying problems fixed first. One problem is that I assumed ENQUEUE_WAKING was only set when we do a cross-cpu wakeup (migration), which isn't true. This means we now destroy the vruntime history of tasks and wakeup-preemption suffers. Cure this by making my assumption true, only call sched_class::task_waking() when we do a cross-cpu wakeup. This avoids the indirect call in the case we do a local wakeup.
