Subject[PATCH 3/4] sched/fair: Modify accumulated sums for load/util averages
Message-ID<rmDmy-1gf-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
After we dropped the incomplete period, the current period should be
a complete "past" period, since all period boundaries, in the past
or in the future, are predetermined.

With incomplete current period:

         |    |    |    |    |
       -------------------*
                        ^ ^
                        | |
                      current

With this patch:

         |    |    |    |    |
       -------------------*
                   ^    ^
                   |    |
                   current

So, the precomputed sums in __accumulated_sum_N[] and
__accumulated_sum_N32[] should be updated accordingly.

Update the script to generate the constants:

print " #:      inv_N    sum_N"
print "-----------------------"
y = (0.5)**(1/32.0)
x = 2**32
xx = 1024
for i in range(0, 32):
	if i == 0:
		x = x-1
	else:
		x = x*y
		xx = int(xx*y + 1024)
	print "%2d: %#x %8d" % (i, int(x), int(xx))

print " #:  sum_N32"
print "------------"
xxx = xx
for i in range(0, 11):
	if i == 0:
		xxx = xx
	else:
		xxx = xxx/2 + xx
	print "%2d: %8d" % (i, xxx)

So since with this patch series, we always operate on period boundaries
you want to add 1024 instead of 1024*y (1024 * 0.5^(1/32) = 1002) for
the most recent period in the past?

Paul Turner's pelt program could be adapted like this:

diff --git a/pelt.c b/pelt.c

        for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
-               sum = (y * sum + y * 1024);
-               sum_fl = floor(y * sum_fl+ y * 1024);

                        sum_fl - sum);
        }

to achieve this.
