From 67692435c411e5c53a1c588ecca2037aebd81f2e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 29 May 2019 20:36:44 +0000 Subject: sched: Rework pick_next_task() slow-path Avoid the RETRY_TASK case in the pick_next_task() slow path. By doing the put_prev_task() early, we get the rt/deadline pull done, and by testing rq->nr_running we know if we need newidle_balance(). This then gives a stable state to pick a task from. Since the fast-path is fair only; it means the other classes will always have pick_next_task(.prev=NULL, .rf=NULL) and we can simplify.
