    sched/irq: Add IRQ utilization tracking · 91c27493
    Vincent Guittot 提交于
    interrupt and steal time are the only remaining activities tracked by
    rt_avg. Like for sched classes, we can use PELT to track their average
    utilization of the CPU. But unlike sched class, we don't track when
    entering/leaving interrupt; Instead, we take into account the time spent
    under interrupt context when we update rqs' clock (rq_clock_task).
    This also means that we have to decay the normal context time and account
    for interrupt time during the update.
    
    That's also important to note that because:
    
      rq_clock == rq_clock_task + interrupt time
    
    and rq_clock_task is used by a sched class to compute its utilization, the
    util_avg of a sched class only reflects the utilization of the time spent
    in normal context and not of the whole time of the CPU. The utilization of
    interrupt gives an more accurate level of utilization of CPU.
    
    The CPU utilization is:
    
      avg_irq + (1 - avg_irq / max capacity) * /Sum avg_rq
    
    Most of the time, avg_irq is small and neglictible so the use of the
    approximation CPU utilization = /Sum avg_rq was enough.
