Yes. For this patchset, we prefer to stay aligned with current implementation which only take into account runnable tasks in order cap the change of the behavior. IMHO, the use of blocked task in utilization_avg_contrib should be part of a dedicated patchset with dedicated non regression test > > Also, group-ses don't ever use their running_avg_sum so it's kinda a > waste, but I'm not sure it's worth doing anything about. > >> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
