Add another member to the family of per-cpu sched_domain shortcut pointers. This one, sd_ea, points to the highest level at which energy model is provided. At this level and all levels below all sched_groups have energy model data attached.
Partial energy model information is possible but restricted to providing energy model data for lower level sched_domains (sd_ea and below) and leaving load-balancing on levels above to non-energy-aware load-balancing. For example, it is possible to apply energy-aware scheduling within each socket on a multi-socket system and let normal scheduling handle load-balancing between sockets. cc: Ingo Molnar <mi...@redhat.com> cc: Peter Zijlstra <pet...@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmus...@arm.com> --- kernel/sched/core.c | 11 ++++++++++- kernel/sched/sched.h | 1 + 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/kernel/sched/core.c b/kernel/sched/core.c index b70a5a7..c7fdd07 100644 --- a/kernel/sched/core.c +++ b/kernel/sched/core.c @@ -5785,11 +5785,12 @@ DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, sd_llc_id); DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_numa); DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_busy); DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_asym); +DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_ea); static void update_top_cache_domain(int cpu) { struct sched_domain *sd; - struct sched_domain *busy_sd = NULL; + struct sched_domain *busy_sd = NULL, *ea_sd = NULL; int id = cpu; int size = 1; @@ -5810,6 +5811,14 @@ static void update_top_cache_domain(int cpu) sd = highest_flag_domain(cpu, SD_ASYM_PACKING); rcu_assign_pointer(per_cpu(sd_asym, cpu), sd); + + for_each_domain(cpu, sd) { + if (sd->groups->sge) + ea_sd = sd; + else + break; + } + rcu_assign_pointer(per_cpu(sd_ea, cpu), ea_sd); } /* diff --git a/kernel/sched/sched.h b/kernel/sched/sched.h index b9d7057..8a51692 100644 --- a/kernel/sched/sched.h +++ b/kernel/sched/sched.h @@ -829,6 +829,7 @@ DECLARE_PER_CPU(int, sd_llc_id); DECLARE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_numa); DECLARE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_busy); DECLARE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_asym); +DECLARE_PER_CPU(struct sched_domain *, sd_ea); struct sched_group_capacity { atomic_t ref; -- 1.9.1 -- 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/
