| |
An entity is supposed to get an earlier deadline with PLACE_DEADLINE_INITIAL when it's forked, but the deadline gets overwritten soon after in enqueue_entity() the first time a forked entity is woken so that PLACE_DEADLINE_INITIAL is effectively a no-op.
Placing in task_fork_fair() seems unnecessary since none of the values that get set (slice, vruntime, deadline) are used before they're set again at enqueue time, so get rid of that (and with it all of task_fork_fair()) and just pass ENQUEUE_INITIAL to enqueue_entity() via wake_up_new_task().
Fixes: e8f331bcc270 ("sched/smp: Use lag to simplify cross-runqueue placement") Signed-off-by: Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@intel.com> Tested-by: K Prateek Nayak <kprateek.nayak@amd.com> ---
v3 - Rebased on tip/sched/core and retested. The "none of the values that get set (slice, vruntime, deadline) are used" part was checked without this patch by poisoning slice, vruntime, and deadline when placing from task_fork_fair() and checking for the poisoned values everywhere they're read until the entity is placed again in enqueue_entity(). - Added Chen Yu's R-b and Prateek's T-b
