Subject: [PATCH v2 2/6] sched/rt: Re-instate old behavior in select_task_rq_rt
Date: Sun, 23 Feb 2020 18:39:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200223184001.14248-3-qais.yousef@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200223184001.14248-1-qais.yousef@arm.com>

When RT Capacity Aware support was added, the logic in select_task_rq_rt
was modified to force a search for a fitting CPU if the task currently
doesn't run on one.

But if the search failed, and the search was only triggered to fulfill
the fitness request; we could end up selecting a new CPU unnecessarily.

Fix this and re-instate the original behavior by ensuring we bail out
in that case.

This behavior change only affected asymmetric systems that are using
util_clamp to implement capacity aware. None asymmetric systems weren't
affected.
