Luca Abeni 9f0d1a5077 sched/deadline: Base GRUB reclaiming on the inactive utilization
Instead of decreasing the runtime as "dq = -Uact dt" (eventually
divided by the maximum utilization available for deadline tasks),
decrease it as "dq = -max{u, (1 - Uinact)} dt", where u is the task
utilization and Uinact is the "inactive utilization".
In this way, the maximum fraction of CPU time that can be reclaimed
is given by the total utilization of deadline tasks.
This approach solves a fairness issue with "traditional" global GRUB
reclaiming: using the traditional GRUB algorithm, if tasks are
allocated to the various cores in a non-uniform way, the
reclaiming mechanism allows some tasks to reclaim more time than
others. This issue is visible starting 11 time-consuming tasks with
runtime 10ms and period 30ms (total utilization 3.666) on a 4-cores
system: some tasks will receive much more than the reserved runtime
(thanks to the reclaiming mechanism), while other tasks will receive
less than the reserved runtime.
