[RFC PATCH 1/6] sched/uclamp: Track uclamped util_avg in sched_avg

From: Hongyan Xia
Date: Wed Oct 04 2023 - 05:05:30 EST


From: Hongyan Xia <hongyan.xia2@xxxxxxx>

Track a uclamped version of util_avg in sched_avg, which clamps util_avg
within [uclamp[UCLAMP_MIN], uclamp[UCLAMP_MAX]] every time util_avg is
updated. At the CFS rq level, cfs_rq->avg.util_avg_uclamp must always be
the sum of all util_avg_uclamp of entities on this cfs_rq. So, each
time the util_avg_uclamp of an entity gets updated, we also track the
delta and update the cfs_rq.

We can't put the update of cfs_rq util_avg_uclamp separately in
propagate_entity_load_avg(), because util_avg_uclamp of se and cfs_rq
are not tracked separately, unlike util_avg. As a result,
util_avg_uclamp of the se and the cfs_rq the se is on must be updated
at the same time.
