Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Fix an issue where fairness is decreased since cfs_rq's can end up not being decayed properly. For two sibling control groups with the same priority, this can often lead to a load ratio of 99/1 (!!). This happens because when a cfs_rq is throttled, all the descendant cfs_rq's will be removed from the leaf list. When they initial cfs_rq is unthrottled, it will currently only re add descendant cfs_rq's if they have one or more entities enqueued. This is not a perfect heuristic. Instead, we insert all cfs_rq's that contain one or more enqueued entities, or it its load is not completely decayed. Can often lead to situations like this for equally weighted control groups: $ ps u -C stress USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 10009 88.8 0.0 3676 100 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:13 stress --cpu 1 root 10023 3.0 0.0 3676 104 pts/1 R+ 11:04 0:00 stress --cpu 1 Fixes: 31bc6aea ("sched/fair: Optimize update_blocked_averages()") [vingo: !SMP build fix] Signed-off-by:Odin Ugedal <odin@uged.al> Signed-off-by:
