sched/deadline: Avoid double-accounting in case of missed deadlines
The dl_runtime_exceeded() function is supposed to ckeck if a SCHED_DEADLINE task must be throttled, by checking if its current runtime is <= 0. However, it also checks if the scheduling deadline has been missed (the current time is larger than the current scheduling deadline), further decreasing the runtime if this happens. This "double accounting" is wrong: - In case of partitioned scheduling (or single CPU), this happens if task_tick_dl() has been called later than expected (due to small HZ values). In this case, the current runtime is also negative, and replenish_dl_entity() can take care of the deadline miss by recharging the current runtime to a value smaller than dl_runtime - In case of global scheduling on multiple CPUs, scheduling deadlines can be missed even if the task did not consume more runtime than expected, hence penalizing the task is wrong This patch fix this problem by throttling a SCHED_DEADLINE task only when its runtime becomes negative, and not modifying the runtime Signed-off-by: NLuca Abeni <luca.abeni@unitn.it> Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: NJuri Lelli <juri.lelli@gmail.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Dario Faggioli <raistlin@linux.it> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1418813432-20797-3-git-send-email-luca.abeni@unitn.itSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
