From e0367b12674bf4420870cd0237e3ebafb2ec9593 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Juri Lelli Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2017 11:23:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] sched/deadline: Move CPU frequency selection triggering points Since SCHED_DEADLINE doesn't track utilization signal (but reserves a fraction of CPU bandwidth to tasks admitted to the system), there is no point in evaluating frequency changes during each tick event. Move frequency selection triggering points to where running_bw changes.
