Subject[PATCH 0/8] sched/deadline: Return the best satisfying affinity and dl in cpudl_find
Date
cpudl_find() is used to find a cpu having the latest dl. The function
should return the latest cpu among ones satisfying task's affinity and
dl constraint, but current code gives up immediately and just return
fail when it fails at the test *only with* the maximum cpu.

For example:

cpu 0 is running a task (dl: 10).
cpu 1 is running a task (dl: 9).
cpu 2 is running a task (dl: 8).
cpu 3 is running a task (dl: 2).

where cpu 3 want to push a task (affinity is 1 2 3 and dl is 1).

In this case, the task should be migrated from cpu 3 to cpu 1, and
preempt cpu 1's task. However, current code just returns fail because
it fails at the affinity test with the maximum cpu, that is, cpu 0.

This patch set tries to find the best among ones satisfying task's
affinity and dl constraint until success or no more to see.

Byungchul Park (8):
sched/deadline: Make find_later_rq() choose a closer cpu in topology
sched/deadline: Re-define parameters of cpudl heapify functions
sched/deadline: Add cpudl_maximum_dl() for clean-up
sched/deadline: Factor out the selecting of suitable max cpu
sched/deadline: Protect read of cpudl heap with a lock
sched/deadline: Don't return meaningless cpu in cpudl_maximum_cpu()
sched/deadline: Factor out the modifying of cpudl's heap tree
sched/deadline: Return the best satisfying affinity and dl in
cpudl_find
