#1491258 — [PATCH 0/7 v4] sched: reflect sched_entity move into task_group's load

Ensure that the move of a sched_entity will be reflected in load and
utilization of the task_group hierarchy.

When a sched_entity moves between groups or CPUs, load and utilization
of cfs_rq don't reflect the changes immediately but converge to new values.
As a result, the metrics are no more aligned with the new balance of the
load in the system and next decisions will have a biased view.

This patchset synchronizes load/utilization of sched_entity with its child
cfs_rq (se->my-q) only when tasks move to/from child cfs_rq:
-move between task group
-migration between CPUs
Otherwise, PELT is updated as usual.

This version doesn't include any changes related to discussion that have
started during the review of the previous version about:
- encapsulate the sequence for changing the propoerty of a task
- remove a cfs_rq from list during update_blocked_averages  
These topics don't gain anything from being added in this patchset as they
are fairly independent and deserve a separate patch.

Changes since v3:
- Replaced the 2 arguments of update_load_avg by 1 flags argument
- Propagated move in runnable_load_avg when sched_entity is already on_rq
- Ensure that intermediate value will not reach memory when updating load and
  utilization
- Optimize the the calculation of load_avg of the sched_entity
- Fixed some typo

Changes since v2:
- Propagate both utilization and load
- Synced sched_entity and se->my_q instead of adding the delta

Changes since v1:
- This patch needs the patch that fixes issue with rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list
  "sched: fix hierarchical order in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list" in order to work
  correctly. I haven't sent them as a single patchset because the fix is
  independent of this one
- Merge some functions that are always used together
- During update of blocked load, ensure that the sched_entity is synced
  with the cfs_rq applying changes
- Fix an issue when task changes its cpu affinity
Vincent Guittot (7):
  sched: factorize attach entity
  sched: fix hierarchical order in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list
  sched: factorize PELT update
  sched: propagate load during synchronous attach/detach
  sched: propagate asynchrous detach
  sched: fix task group initialization
  sched: fix wrong utilization accounting when switching to fair class

#1491259 — [PATCH 4/7 v4] sched: propagate load during synchronous attach/detach

When a task moves from/to a cfs_rq, we set a flag which is then used to
propagate the change at parent level (sched_entity and cfs_rq) during
next update. If the cfs_rq is throttled, the flag will stay pending until
the cfs_rw is unthrottled.

For propagating the utilization, we copy the utilization of group cfs_rq to
the sched_entity.

For propagating the load, we have to take into account the load of the
whole task group in order to evaluate the load of the sched_entity.
Similarly to what was done before the rewrite of PELT, we add a correction
factor in case the task group's load is greater than its share so it will
contribute the same load of a task of equal weight.

#1491260 — [PATCH 2/7 v4] sched: fix hierarchical order in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list

Fix the insertion of cfs_rq in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list to ensure that
a child will always be called before its parent.

The hierarchical order in shares update list has been introduced by
commit 67e86250f8ea ("sched: Introduce hierarchal order on shares update list")

With the current implementation a child can be still put after its parent.

Lets take the example of
       root
        \
         b
         /\
         c d*
           |
           e*

with root -> b -> c already enqueued but not d -> e so the leaf_cfs_rq_list
looks like: head -> c -> b -> root -> tail

The branch d -> e will be added the first time that they are enqueued,
starting with e then d.

When e is added, its parents is not already on the list so e is put at the
tail : head -> c -> b -> root -> e -> tail

Then, d is added at the head because its parent is already on the list:
head -> d -> c -> b -> root -> e -> tail

e is not placed at the right position and will be called the last whereas
it should be called at the beginning.

Because it follows the bottom-up enqueue sequence, we are sure that we
will finished to add either a cfs_rq without parent or a cfs_rq with a parent
that is already on the list. We can use this event to detect when we have
finished to add a new branch. For the others, whose parents are not already
added, we have to ensure that they will be added after their children that
have just been inserted the steps before, and after any potential parents that
are already in the list. The easiest way is to put the cfs_rq just after the
last inserted one and to keep track of it untl the branch is fully added.

In fact there is a 3rd caller online_fair_sched_group which calls
attach_entity_cfs_rq and doesn't already use  cfs_rq_of(se) so i
wonder if it's worth doing the interface change.

OK, this change gets in w/ patch 6/7. Yeah, skip it, it's not so important.

#1491263 — [PATCH 3/7 v4] sched: factorize PELT update

Every time, we modify load/utilization of sched_entity, we start to sync
it with its cfs_rq. This update is done is different ways:
-when attaching/detaching a sched_entity, we update cfs_rq and then we
sync the entity with the cfs_rq.
-when enqueueing/dequeuing the sched_entity, we update both sched_entity
and cfs_rq metrics to now.

Use update_load_avg everytime we have to update and sync cfs_rq and
sched_entity before changing the state of a sched_enity
