Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: Revise comment about lb decision matrix
Git-commit: a658353167bf2ea6052cee071dbcc13e0f229dc9
Patch-mainline: v5.19-rc1
References: git-fixes
If busiest group type is group_misfit_task, the local
group type must be group_has_spare according to below
code in update_sd_pick_busiest():
if (sgs->group_type == group_misfit_task &&
(!capacity_greater(capacity_of(env->dst_cpu), sg->sgc->max_capacity) ||
sds->local_stat.group_type != group_has_spare))
return false;
group type imbalanced and overloaded and fully_busy are filtered in here.
misfit and asym are filtered before in update_sg_lb_stats().
So, change the decision matrix to:
busiest \ local has_spare fully_busy misfit asym imbalanced overloaded
has_spare nr_idle balanced N/A N/A balanced balanced
fully_busy nr_idle nr_idle N/A N/A balanced balanced
misfit_task force N/A N/A N/A *N/A* *N/A*
asym_packing force force N/A N/A force force
imbalanced force force N/A N/A force force
overloaded force force N/A N/A force avg_load
