sched/fair: Correctly insert cfs_rq's to list on unthrottle
Fix an issue where fairness is decreased since cfs_rq's can end up not being decayed properly. For two sibling control groups with the same priority, this can often lead to a load ratio of 99/1 (!!). This happens because when a cfs_rq is throttled, all the descendant cfs_rq's will be removed from the leaf list. When they initial cfs_rq is unthrottled, it will currently only re add descendant cfs_rq's if they have one or more entities enqueued. This is not a perfect heuristic. Instead, we insert all cfs_rq's that contain one or more enqueued entities, or it its load is not completely decayed. Can often lead to situations like this for equally weighted control groups: $ ps u -C stress USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 10009 88.8 0.0 3676 100 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:13 stress --cpu 1 root 10023 3.0 0.0 3676 104 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:00 stress --cpu 1 Fixes: 31bc6aea ("sched/fair: Optimize update_blocked_averages()") [vingo: !SMP build fix] Signed-off-by: Odin Ugedal <odin@uged.al> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210612112815.61678-1-odin@uged.al
