Subject: [patch 4/5] sched: use rq->clock_task instead of rq->clock for maintaining load averages
Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2011 20:45:02 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110122044852.007092349@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20110122044458.058531078@google.com

[-- Attachment #1: sched-use_clock_task.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 836 bytes --]

The delta in clock_task is a more fair attribution of how much time a tg has
been contributing load to the current cpu.

While not really important it also means we're more in sync (by magnitude)
with respect to periodic updates (since __update_curr deltas are clock_task
based).
