Then, it compares this value with the sum of nr_running to decide if the group is overloaded or not. But the group_capacity_factor is hardly working for SMT system, it sometimes works for big cores but fails to do the right thing for little cores. Below are two examples to illustrate the problem that this patch solves: 1- If the original capacity of a CPU is less than SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE (640 as an example), a group of 3 CPUS will have a max capacity_factor of 2 (div_round_closest(3x640/1024) = 2) which means that it will be seen as overloaded even if we have only one task per CPU. 2 - If the original capacity of a CPU is greater than SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE (1512 as an example), a group of 4 CPUs will have a capacity_factor of 4 (at max and thanks to the fix [0] for SMT system that prevent the apparition of ghost CPUs) but if one CPU is fully used by rt tasks (and its capacity is reduced to nearly nothing), the capacity factor of the group will still be 4 (div_round_closest(3*1512/1024) = 5 which is cap to 4 with [0]). So, this patch tries to solve this issue by removing capacity_factor and replacing it with the 2 following metrics : -The available CPU's capacity for CFS tasks which is already used by load_balance. -The usage of the CPU by the CFS tasks. For the latter, utilization_avg_contrib has been re-introduced to compute the usage of a CPU by CFS tasks. group_capacity_factor and group_has_free_capacity has been removed and replaced by group_no_capacity. We compare the number of task with the number of CPUs and we evaluate the level of utilization of the CPUs to define if a group is overloaded or if a group has capacity to handle more tasks. For SD_PREFER_SIBLING, a group is tagged overloaded if it has more than 1 task so it will be selected in priority (among the overloaded groups). Since [1], SD_PREFER_SIBLING is no more concerned by the computation of load_above_capacity because local is not overloaded. Finally, the sched_group->sched_group_capacity->capacity_orig has been removed because it's no more used during load balance.
