The cpu_load decays on time according past cpu load of rq. The sched_avg also decays tasks' load on time. Now we has 2 kind decay for cpu_load. That is a kind of redundancy. And increase the system load by decay calculation. This patch try to remove the cpu_load decay.
There are 5 load_idx used for cpu_load in sched_domain. busy_idx and idle_idx are not zero usually, but newidle_idx, wake_idx and forkexec_idx are all zero on every arch. A shortcut to remove cpu_Load decay in the first patch. just one line patch for this change. Then I try to clean up code followed by this change.
V4, 1, rebase on latest tip/master 2, replace target_load by biased_load as Morten's suggestion
V3, 1, correct the wake_affine bias. Thanks for Morten's reminder! 2, replace source_load by weighted_cpuload for better function name meaning.
V2, 1, This version do some tuning on load bias of target load. 2, Got further to remove the cpu_load in rq. 3, Revert the patch 'Limit sd->*_idx range on sysctl' since no needs
Any testing/comments are appreciated.
This patch rebase on latest tip/master. The git tree for this patchset at: git@github.com:alexshi/power-scheduling.git noload
Thanks Alex

Shortcut to remove rq->cpu_load[load_idx] effect in scheduler. In five load idx, only busy_idx, idle_idx are not zero. Newidle_idx, wake_idx and fork_idx are all zero in all archs.
So, change the idx to zero here can fully remove load_idx effect.

Since load_idx effect removed in load balance, we don't need the load_idx decays in scheduler. that will save some process in sched_tick and others places.

The single line change in the previous patch gets removed here so why not club them.
Uh, the first patch want to just show the load_idx connection in current logical.
Yes, we can club them, but this connection will be flooded in code.
Since we don't decay the rq->cpu_load, so we don't need the pending_updates. But we still want update rq->rt_avg, so still keep rq->last_load_update_tick and func __update_cpu_load.

Old code considers the bias in source/target_load already. but still use imbalance_pct as last check in idlest/busiest group finding. It is also a kind of redundant job. If we bias imbalance in source/target_load, we'd better not use imbalance_pct again.
After cpu_load array removed, it is nice time to unify the target bias consideration. So I remove the imbalance_pct from last check and add the live bias using.
On wake_affine, since all archs' wake_idx is 0, current logical is just want to prefer current cpu. so we follows this logical. Just renaming the target_load/source_load to wegithed_cpuload for more exact meaning. Thanks for reminding from Morten!

So this patch is weird..
So the original bias in the source/target load is purely based on actual load figures. It only pulls-down/pulls-up resp. the long term avg with a shorter term average; iow. it allows the source to decrease faster and the target to increase faster, giving a natural inertia (ie. a resistance to movement).
Therefore this gives rise to a conservative imbalance.
Then at the end we use the imbalance_pct thing as a normal hysteresis control to avoid the rapid state switching associated with a single control point system.
You completely wreck that, you also don't give a coherent model back.
The movement of imbalance_pct into target_load() doesn't make sense to me either; it's an (expensive) no-op afaict. Seeing how:
100 * source_load() < imb_pct * target_load()
is very much equal to:
source_load() < (imb_pct * target_load()) / 100;
Except you get to do that div all over the place.
It also completely muddles the fact that its a normal hysteresis control. Not a load bias. A fixed bias can never replace the inertial control we had; it doesn't make sense as a replacement.
Not to mention you seem to ignore all concerns wrt the use of longer term averages for the bigger domains.
Now I'm all for removing code; and so far the numbers aren't bad; but I don't like the complete muddle you make of things at all.

Peter, Thanks response and detailed explanations! :)
Yes, fixed bias can not replace the current bias. If we said sth inertia, we usually mean the previous value or long term value here. but source/target_load doesn't prefer a long term or shorter term load, Just get the min or max of them. so I can't see other meaning except source/target bias. And the long term load is a decayed load with history load value, not a real actual load.
And in current logical, assume the load of cpu is constant in a period, then the source/target_load will lose its 'resistance' function for balance. Considering the moving cost, rq locking and potential cpu cache missing, Is some bias needed here?
Another problem is, we bias load twice for busy_idx scenario. once in source/target_load another is imbalance_pct in find_busiest_group. I can't figure out the reason. :(
So would rather select a random long/shorter term load, than maybe it's better to use a fixed bias, like in current NUMA balancing, and in newidle/wake balance.

It is my fault. Will change it back.

I know fixed bias maybe not the best, but sorry for can not figure out better one. Would you like to give some suggestion?
Not to mention you seem to ignore all concerns wrt the use of longer term averages for the bigger domains.
For bigger domain, I given up the aggression bias idea(less bias on large group) in V2 version due to Morten's concern. And I have asked for more comments, but no more detailed concerns I can see now. :(
Now I'm all for removing code; and so far the numbers aren't bad; but I don't like the complete muddle you make of things at all.
Sorry, do you mean the load_idx removing is fine, if without this fixed bias? Or other suggestion here?
Would you like to give more comments? :)

May I didn't say clear about the issue of cpu_load. So forgive my verbose explanation again.
In 5 cpu load idx, only busy_idx and idle_idx are not zero, only they are using long term load value.
The other idxes, wake_idx, forexec_idx and new_idle_idx are all zero. They are using imbalance_pct as fixed bias consideration *only*, as well as in numa balancing.
As to busy_idx, We considered the cpu load history and src/dst bias both. But we are wrong to mix them together. Considering long/short term load isn't related with bias. The long term load consideration is done in runnable load avg. And the bias value should be isolated and based on task migration cost between cpu/groups. Now we mix them together, the ridiculous thing is, when all cpu load are continuous stable, long/short term load is same. then we lose the bias meaning, so any minimum imbalance may cause unnecessary task moving. To prevent this funny thing happen, we have to reuse the imbalance_pct again in find_busiest_group(). But That clearly causes over bias in normal time. If there are some burst load in system, it is more worse.
As to idle_idx, it is not use imbalance_pct at all. Since short term load is zero, so it looks clearly, we pretend we are long term load when cpu in dst group. or zero load, when cpu in src group. But from maximum performance point view. It's better to balance task to idle cpu. So we'd better to move tasks to dst group unless the moving cost is beyond task migration cost, that is the imbalance_pct for. Now pretending we have some load in dst group rejects the incoming load we pretend have. And It also prefer to move task to long time idle cpu, that actually costs performance/latency both since low latency of deep c-state waking. Anyway, for idle cpu load balance, since we are working on cpu idle migration into scheduler. The problem must be reconsidered. We don't need to care much now.
Base on above reasons, I believe mixing long term load with task moving bias consideration is stupid. And I admit the imbalance_pct need more tuning or even remake, but it is not a bad start, at least it is used in balance anywhere now.
After change to sched_avg, the cpu load in idle exit was decayed. So, it maybe near zero if waking a long time sleep task, or, a full non-decay load if waking a new forked task. Then, we can use it to reflect the cpu load, don't need to pretend 0.

The cpu_load is the copy of rq->cfs.runnable_load_avg. And it updated on time. So we can use the latter directly. Thus saved 2 rq variables: cpu_load and nr_load_updates. Then don't need __update_cpu_load(), just keep sched_avg_update(). Thus removed get_rq_runnable_load() which used for update_cpu_load only.
