Subject[PATCH] sched/fair: Limit sched_cfs_period_timer loop to avoid hard lockup
Date
With extremely short cfs_period_us setting on a parent task group with a large
number of children the for loop in sched_cfs_period_timer can run until the
watchdog fires. There is no guarantee that the call to hrtimer_forward_now()
will ever return 0. The large number of children can make
do_sched_cfs_period_timer() take longer than the period.

...

To prevent this we add protection to the loop that detects when the loop has run
too many times and scales the period and quota up, proportionally, so that the timer
can complete before then next period expires. This preserves the relative runtime
quota while preventing the hard lockup.

A warning is issued reporting this state and the new values.

The scaling by average time over count was suggested by Ben Segall <bsegall@google.com>.

Note: This is against v5.0 as suggested by the documentation. It won't apply to 5.0+ due to
the change to raw_spin_lock_irqsave. I can respin as needed.
