It isn't a full PELT implementation in this patch. In fact, it isn't per-entity :-) However, it might be sufficient to improve things without causing too much overhead. > > Signed-off-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> > --- > > If the changes are reasonnable, it might worth moving the PELT function in a > dedicated pelt.c file and the ugly > extern int update_rt_rq_load_avg(u64 now, int cpu, struct rt_rq *rt_rq, int running); > in a pelt.h header > > > kernel/sched/fair.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ > kernel/sched/rt.c | 9 +++++++++ > kernel/sched/sched.h | 3 +++ > 3 files changed, 33 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/kernel/sched/fair.c b/kernel/sched/fair.c > index 47a0c55..0d7698b 100644 > --- a/kernel/sched/fair.c > +++ b/kernel/sched/fair.c > @@ -2950,6 +2950,17 @@ __update_load_avg_cfs_rq(u64 now, int cpu, struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq) > cfs_rq->curr != NULL, cfs_rq); > } > > +int update_rt_rq_load_avg(u64 now, int cpu, struct rt_rq *rt_rq, int running) > +{ > + int ret; > + > + ret = ___update_load_avg(now, cpu, &rt_rq->avg, 0, running, NULL); > + > + > + return ret; > +} > + > + > /* > * Signed add and clamp on underflow. > * > @@ -3478,6 +3489,11 @@ update_cfs_rq_load_avg(u64 now, struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, bool update_freq) > return 0; > } > > +int update_rt_rq_load_avg(u64 now, int cpu, struct rt_rq *rt_rq, int running) > +{ > + return 0; > +} > + > #define UPDATE_TG 0x0 > #define SKIP_AGE_LOAD 0x0 > > @@ -7008,6 +7024,10 @@ static void update_blocked_averages(int cpu) > if (cfs_rq_is_decayed(cfs_rq)) > list_del_leaf_cfs_rq(cfs_rq); > } > + > + update_rt_rq_load_avg(rq_clock_task(rq), cpu, &rq->rt, 0); > + > + > rq_unlock_irqrestore(rq, &rf); > } This would be easier if we had a place to stick remote updates of various metrics for NOHZ idle cpus? > > @@ -7067,6 +7087,7 @@ static inline void update_blocked_averages(int cpu) > rq_lock_irqsave(rq, &rf); > update_rq_clock(rq); > update_cfs_rq_load_avg(cfs_rq_clock_task(cfs_rq), cfs_rq, true); > + update_rt_rq_load_avg(rq_clock_task(rq), cpu, &rq->rt, 0); > rq_unlock_irqrestore(rq, &rf); > } > > diff --git a/kernel/sched/rt.c b/kernel/sched/rt.c > index 581d5c7..09293fa 100644 > --- a/kernel/sched/rt.c > +++ b/kernel/sched/rt.c > @@ -1534,6 +1534,8 @@ static struct task_struct *_pick_next_task_rt(struct rq *rq) > return p; > } > > +extern int update_rt_rq_load_avg(u64 now, int cpu, struct rt_rq *rt_rq, int running); > + > static struct task_struct * > pick_next_task_rt(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev, struct rq_flags *rf) > { > @@ -1579,6 +1581,10 @@ pick_next_task_rt(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev, struct rq_flags *rf) > > queue_push_tasks(rq); > > + if (p) > + update_rt_rq_load_avg(rq_clock_task(rq), cpu_of(rq), rt_rq, > + rq->curr->sched_class == &rt_sched_class); > + > return p; > } I'm quite likely missing something, but why is this update need here? IIUC, put_prev_task() was called just a couple of lines further up which also does an update (below). The only difference is that this update depends on the current task being an RT task, which isn't always the case. Is it supposed to decay the RT PELT average when we pick an RT task and the previous task !RT? In that case, the "running" argument needs a ! in front. Morten

It was just me getting the logic wrong. rq->curr->sched_class == &rt_sched_class would of course be false if the previous task is CFS meaning "running" is false and hence we will decay the rt rq PELT signal as we correctly should.

Well, the DL tracking is fairly pessimistic; it assumes all DL tasks will consume their total budget, which will rarely, if ever, happen. So I suspect it might well be worth it to also track DL activity for the purpose of compensating CFS. In fact, I don't think you particularly care about RT here, as anything !CFS that preempts it, including those interrupts you mentioned. Which gets us back to what rt_avg is. > We don't use rt_avg which doesn't have the same dynamic as PELT and which > can include IRQ time that are also accounted in cfs task utilization Well, if rt_avg includes IRQ time, then that IRQ time is not part of the task clock. > Signed-off-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> > --- > > If the changes are reasonnable, it might worth moving the PELT function in a > dedicated pelt.c file and the ugly > extern int update_rt_rq_load_avg(u64 now, int cpu, struct rt_rq *rt_rq, int running); > in a pelt.h header > > > kernel/sched/fair.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ > kernel/sched/rt.c | 9 +++++++++ > kernel/sched/sched.h | 3 +++ > 3 files changed, 33 insertions(+) Also, and I didn't check this, it is important that the windows are aligned if you want to sum the values.

Again, it seems I have this CPPC/HWP crud firmly stuck in my brain. Because I was thinking: min_freq = dl_util avg_freq = dl_avg + rt_avg + cfs_util But given we don't actually have that split... meh. > In fact, I don't think you particularly care about RT here, as anything > !CFS that preempts it, including those interrupts you mentioned.

So, I guess the question is: should we have it? :) IMHO, it makes sense and seems to benefit mobile use-cases I'm looking at. rt_avg though it also seems to build up very slowly (at least with default configs). I'm experimenting with Vincent proposal and it looks better (w.r.t. using rt_avg). Also summing up signals that behave similarly doesn't seem the wrong thing to do.
