Subject: [RESEND PATCH 0/3] sched/fair: some fixes for asym_packing
Date: Tue,  2 Oct 2018 09:26:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1538465199-20176-1-git-send-email-vincent.guittot@linaro.org> (raw)

During the review of misfit task patchset, Morten and Valentin raised some
problems with the use of SD_ASYM_PACKING flag on asymmetric system like
hikey960 arm64 big/LITTLE platform. The study of the use cases has shown
some problems that can happen for every systems that use the flag.

The 3 patches fixes the problems raised for lmbench and the rt-app UC that
creates 2 tasks that start as small tasks and then become suddenly always
running tasks. (I can provide the rt-app json is needed)

- Rebase on latest tip/sched/core

Vincent Guittot (3):
  sched/fair: fix rounding issue for asym packing
  sched/fair: trigger asym_packing during idle load balance
  sched/fair: fix unnecessary increase of balance interval
