CC can be seen as either decayed average run queue length, or run-queue-lengh- weighted CPU utilization. CC is calculated by two steps:
1) Divide continuous time into periods of time, and average task concurrency in period, for tolerating the transient bursts:
a = sum(concurrency * time) / period
2) Exponentially decay past periods, and synthesize them all, for hysteresis to load drops or resilience to load rises (let f be decaying factor, and a_x the xth period average since period 0):
s = a_n + f^1 * a_n-1 + f^2 * a_n-2 +, ..., + f^(n-1) * a_1 + f^n * a_0
We reuse __update_entity_runnable_avg to calc CC.
CC can only be modified when enqueue and dequeue the CPU rq. We also update it in scheduler tick, load balancing, and idle enter/exit in case we may not have enqueue and dequeue for a long time.
Therefore, we update/track CC in and only in these points:
we update cpu concurrency at: 1) enqueue task, which increases concurrency 2) dequeue task, which decreases concurrency 3) periodic scheduler tick, in case no en/dequeue for long 4) enter and exit idle 5) update_blocked_averages
