Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] sched: adjust sleeper credit for SCHED_IDLE entities
Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2021 18:04:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210820010403.946838-5-joshdon@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210820010403.946838-1-joshdon@google.com>
Give reduced sleeper credit to SCHED_IDLE entities. As a result, woken
SCHED_IDLE entities will take longer to preempt normal entities.
The benefit of this change is to make it less likely that a newly woken
SCHED_IDLE entity will preempt a short-running normal entity before it
blocks.
We still give a small sleeper credit to SCHED_IDLE entities, so that
idle<->idle competition retains some fairness.
Example: With HZ=1000, spawned four threads affined to one cpu, one of
which was set to SCHED_IDLE. Without this patch, wakeup latency for the
SCHED_IDLE thread was ~1-2ms, with the patch the wakeup latency was
~5ms.
