2015-01-30sched/deadline: Modify cpudl::free_cpus to reflect rd->onlineXunlei Pang
Currently, cpudl::free_cpus contains all CPUs during init, see cpudl_init(). When calling cpudl_find(), we have to add rd->span to avoid selecting the cpu outside the current root domain, because cpus_allowed cannot be depended on when performing clustered scheduling using the cpuset, see find_later_rq(). This patch adds cpudl_set_freecpu() and cpudl_clear_freecpu() for changing cpudl::free_cpus when doing rq_online_dl()/rq_offline_dl(), so we can avoid the rd->span operation when calling cpudl_find() in find_later_rq().

Actually, cpudl_set() and cpudl_init() can never be used without CONFIG_SMP.

2014-05-22sched/deadline: Replace NR_CPUS arraysPeter Zijlstra
Tejun reported that his resume was failing due to order-3 allocations from sched_domain building. Replace the NR_CPUS arrays in there with a dynamically allocated array.

2014-01-13sched/deadline: speed up SCHED_DEADLINE pushes with a push-heapJuri Lelli
Data from tests confirmed that the original active load balancing logic didn't scale neither in the number of CPU nor in the number of tasks (as sched_rt does). Here we provide a global data structure to keep track of deadlines of the running tasks in the system. The structure is composed by a bitmask showing the free CPUs and a max-heap, needed when the system is heavily loaded. The implementation and concurrent access scheme are kept simple by design. However, our measurements show that we can compete with sched_rt on large multi-CPUs machines [1]. Only the push path is addressed, the extension to use this structure also for pull decisions is straightforward. However, we are currently evaluating different (in order to decrease/avoid contention) data structures to solve possibly both problems. We are also going to re-run tests considering recent changes inside cpupri [2].
