SubjectRe: [PATCH v3 1/1] sched/uclamp: add SCHED_FLAG_UTIL_CLAMP_RESET flag to reset uclamp
Date

Hi Dietmar, Yun,
I hope I'm not too late before v4 posting ;)

I think the overall approach is sound, I just added in a couple of
cleanups and a possible fix (user_defined reset).

Best,
Patrick

Maybe we can add in some comments?

Since the evaluation ordering is important, do we have to better
_always_ use a READ_ONCE() for all flags accesses above, to ensure it is
preserved?

Perhaps we should update the comment above this loop with something
like:

/*
* Reset to default clamps on forced _UCLAMP_RESET (always) and
* for tasks without a task-specific value (on scheduling class change).
*/
>> for_each_clamp_id(clamp_id) {

I think we miss to reset the user_defined flag here.

What about replacing the above chunk with:

if (uclamp_reset(clamp_id, attr->sched_flags))
uc_se->user_defined = false;
if (uc-se->user_defined)
continue;

?

By removing this usage of __uclamp_updadate_util_min_rt_default(p),
the only other usage remaining is the call from:
uclamp_udpate_util_min_rt_default().

What about an additional cleanup by in-lining the only surviving usage?

The likely() above should not wrap both conditions to be effective?
