sched/fair: Rework load_balance()
The load_balance() algorithm contains some heuristics which have become meaningless since the rework of the scheduler's metrics like the introduction of PELT. Furthermore, load is an ill-suited metric for solving certain task placement imbalance scenarios. For instance, in the presence of idle CPUs, we should simply try to get at least one task per CPU, whereas the current load-based algorithm can actually leave idle CPUs alone simply because the load is somewhat balanced. The current algorithm ends up creating virtual and meaningless values like the avg_load_per_task or tweaks the state of a group to make it overloaded whereas it's not, in order to try to migrate tasks. load_balance() should better qualify the imbalance of the group and clearly define what has to be moved to fix this imbalance. The type of sched_group has been extended to better reflect the type of imbalance. We now have: group_has_spare group_fully_busy group_misfit_task group_asym_packing group_imbalanced group_overloaded Based on the type of sched_group, load_balance now sets what it wants to move in order to fix the imbalance. It can be some load as before but also some utilization, a number of task or a type of task: migrate_task migrate_util migrate_load migrate_misfit This new load_balance() algorithm fixes several pending wrong tasks placement: - the 1 task per CPU case with asymmetric system - the case of cfs task preempted by other class - the case of tasks not evenly spread on groups with spare capacity Also the load balance decisions have been consolidated in the 3 functions below after removing the few bypasses and hacks of the current code: - update_sd_pick_busiest() select the busiest sched_group. - find_busiest_group() checks if there is an imbalance between local and busiest group. - calculate_imbalance() decides what have to be moved. Finally, the now unused field total_running of struct sd_lb_stats has been removed.
