When we are migrating task out of the CPU, we can combine detach and propagation into dequeue_entity() to save the detach_entity_cfs_rq() in migrate_task_rq_fair(). This optimization is like combining DO_ATTACH in the enqueue_entity() when migrating task to the CPU. So we don't have to traverse the CFS tree extra time to do the detach_entity_cfs_rq() -> propagate_entity_cfs_rq(), which wouldn't be called anymore with this patch's change. detach_task() deactivate_task() dequeue_task_fair() for_each_sched_entity(se) dequeue_entity() update_load_avg() /* (1) */ detach_entity_load_avg() set_task_cpu() migrate_task_rq_fair() detach_entity_cfs_rq() /* (2) */ update_load_avg(); detach_entity_load_avg(); propagate_entity_cfs_rq(); for_each_sched_entity() update_load_avg() This patch save the detach_entity_cfs_rq() called in (2) by doing the detach_entity_load_avg() for a CPU migrating task inside (1) (the task being the first se in the loop) Signed-off-by: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@bytedance.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220818124805.601-6-zhouchengming@bytedance.com
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
