sched/fair: Make EAS wakeup placement consider uclamp restrictions
task_fits_capacity() has just been made uclamp-aware, and find_energy_efficient_cpu() needs to go through the same treatment. Things are somewhat different here however - using the task max clamp isn't sufficient. Consider the following setup: The target runqueue, rq: rq.cpu_capacity_orig = 512 rq.cfs.avg.util_avg = 200 rq.uclamp.max = 768 // the max p.uclamp.max of all enqueued p's is 768 The waking task, p (not yet enqueued on rq): p.util_est = 600 p.uclamp.max = 100 Now, consider the following code which doesn't use the rq clamps: util = uclamp_task_util(p); // Does the task fit in the spare CPU capacity? cpu = cpu_of(rq); fits_capacity(util, cpu_capacity(cpu) - cpu_util(cpu)) This would lead to: util = 100; fits_capacity(100, 512 - 200) fits_capacity() would return true. However, enqueuing p on that CPU *will* cause it to become overutilized since rq clamp values are max-aggregated, so we'd remain with rq.uclamp.max = 768 which comes from the other tasks already enqueued on rq. Thus, we could select a high enough frequency to reach beyond 0.8 * 512 utilization (== overutilized) after enqueuing p on rq. What find_energy_efficient_cpu() needs here is uclamp_rq_util_with() which lets us peek at the future utilization landscape, including rq-wide uclamp values. Make find_energy_efficient_cpu() use uclamp_rq_util_with() for its fits_capacity() check. This is in line with what compute_energy() ends up using for estimating utilization.
