Do you mean the jump from system-rngd.slice (0) (tg.css.id=3) to system.slice (118) (tg.css.id=2)? Maybe, the 118 might come from another tg hierarchy (w/ tg.css.id >= 3) inside the system.slice group representing another service. Rabin, could you share the content of your /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/system.slice directory and of /proc/cgroups ? Whether 118 comes from the cfs_rq->blocked_load_avg of one of the tg levels of one of the other system.slice tg hierarchies or it results from not updating the se.avg.load_avg_contrib values of se's representing tg's immediately is not that important I guess. Even if we're able to sync both things (task en/dequeue and tg se.avg.load_avg_contrib update) perfectly (by calling update_cfs_rq_blocked_load() always w/ force_update=1 and immediately after that update_entity_load_avg() for all tg se's in one hierarchy, we would still have to deal w/ the blocked load part if the tg se representing system.slice contributes to cpu_rq(cpu)->cfs.runnable_load_avg. -- Dietmar > > But anyway, this really is irrelevant to the discusstion. > [...] -- 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/
