sched_class::switched_from() methods can drop rq->lock before your
great balance_callback patchset. :-)

When holding rq->lock, no. I suppose the patch was just to mirror rt and
someone 'forgot' about the extra constraints on dl tasks.

I'm looking at some old changes for sched-deadline, and I stumbled
across this. As I'm working on sched deadline tests, I've discovered
that they can't have cpu affinity. They are limited to their sched
domains. That is, sched deadline tasks have whatever affinity that the
domain they happen to be in has.

Is there a condition where rq != task_rq(p) and p->nr_cpus_allowed > 1
isn't true?

Now maybe this will help with -rt when a task hits a migrate disable?

Just asking.

[PATCH v3] sched/deadline: do not try to push tasks if pinned task switches to dl

2014-10-21 Thread Wanpeng Li
As Kirill mentioned(https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/29/118):
| If rq has already had 2 or more pushable tasks and we try to add a 
| pinned task then call of push_rt_task will just waste a time.

Just switched pinned task is not able to be pushed. If the rq has had
several dl tasks before they have already been considered as candidates
to be pushed (or pulled). This patch implements the same behavior as rt 
class which introduced by commit 10447917551e ("sched/rt: Do not try to 
push tasks if pinned task switches to RT").
