Fact is that it makes sense to consider wakeup_new also (i.e., fork()), as we don't know anything about a newly created task and thus we most certainly want to jump to max OPP to not harm performance too much. However, it is not currently possible (or at least it wasn't evident to me how to do so :/) to tell new wakeups from other (non wakeup) operations. This patch introduces an additional flag in sched.h that is only set at fork() time and it is then consumed in enqueue_task_fair() for our purpose. cc: Ingo Molnar cc: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Juri Lelli --- kernel/sched/core.c | 2 +- kernel/sched/fair.c | 9 +++------ kernel/sched/sched.h | 1 + 3 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/sched/core.c b/kernel/sched/core.c index 43952c7..e901340 100644 --- a/kernel/sched/core.c +++ b/kernel/sched/core.c @@ -2360,7 +2360,7 @@ void wake_up_new_task(struct task_struct *p) #endif rq = __task_rq_lock(p); - activate_task(rq, p, 0); + activate_task(rq, p, ENQUEUE_WAKEUP_NEW); p->on_rq = TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED; trace_sched_wakeup_new(p); check_preempt_curr(rq, p, WF_FORK); diff --git a/kernel/sched/fair.c b/kernel/sched/fair.c index ebf86b4..a75ea07 100644 --- a/kernel/sched/fair.c +++ b/kernel/sched/fair.c @@ -4107,7 +4107,8 @@ enqueue_task_fair(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p, int flags) { struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq; struct sched_entity *se = &p->se; - int task_new = !(flags & ENQUEUE_WAKEUP); + int task_new = flags & ENQUEUE_WAKEUP_NEW; + int task_wakeup = flags & ENQUEUE_WAKEUP; for_each_sched_entity(se) { if (se->on_rq) @@ -4147,12 +4148,8 @@ enqueue_task_fair(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p, int flags) * tasks that are waking up; this is because we get here also during * load balancing, but in these cases it seems wise to trigger * as single request after load balancing is done. - * - * XXX: how about fork()?
