From: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@intel.com> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.12-rc4 commit d4ac164bde7a12ec0a238a7ead5aa26819bbb1c1 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/8903 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- Commit 85e511df3cec ("sched/eevdf: Allow shorter slices to wakeup-preempt") introduced a mechanism that a wakee with shorter slice could preempt the current running task. It also lower the bar for the current task to be preempted, by checking the rq->nr_running instead of cfs_rq->nr_running when the current task has ran out of time slice. But there is a scenario that is problematic. Say, if there is 1 cfs task and 1 rt task, before 85e511df3cec, update_deadline() will not trigger a reschedule, and after 85e511df3cec, since rq->nr_running is 2 and resched is true, a resched_curr() would happen. Some workloads (like the hackbench reported by lkp) do not like over-scheduling. We can see that the preemption rate has been increased by 2.2%: 1.654e+08 +2.2% 1.69e+08 hackbench.time.involuntary_context_switches Restore its previous check criterion.
