[PATCH v4 2/2] sched: update the rq->avg_idle when a task is moved to an idle CPU
Posted by Huang Shijie 3 days, 13 hours ago
In the newidle balance, the rq->idle_stamp may set to a non-zero value
if it cannot pull any task.

In the wakeup, it will detect the rq->idle_stamp, and updates
the rq->avg_idle, then ends the CPU idle status by setting rq->idle_stamp
to zero.

Besides the wakeup, current code does not end the CPU idle status
when a task is moved to the idle CPU, such as fork/clone, execve,
or other cases.

This patch introduces a helper: update_rq_avg_idle().
And uses it in enqueue_task(), so it will update the rq->avg_idle
when a task is moved to an idle CPU at:
   -- wakeup
   -- fork/clone
   -- execve
   -- idle balance
   -- other cases
