Could you mention in the message that this a throttled cfs_rq can have
account_cfs_rq_runtime called on it because it is throttled before
idle_balance, and the idle_balance calls update_rq_clock to add time
that is accounted to the task.


Mayhaps even a comment for the extra condition.

I think this solution is less risky than unthrottling
in this area, so other than that:

I'm not adamant about the extra comment, but the WARN_ON would be nice IMO.


@Ben, do you reckon we want to strap

Cc: <sta...@vger.kernel.org>
Fixes: ec12cb7f31e2 ("sched: Accumulate per-cfs_rq cpu usage and charge against 
bandwidth")

to the thing? AFAICT the pick_next_task_fair() + idle_balance() dance you
described should still be possible on that commit.

I'm not sure about stable policy in general, but it seems reasonable.
The WARN_ON might want to be WARN_ON_ONCE, and it seems fine to have it
or not.

Thanks Ben and Valentin for all of the comments. Per Xunlei's suggestion, I used SCHED_WARN_ON instead in v3. Regarding whether cc stable, I'm also not sure.
