sched/rt: Restore rt_runtime after disabling RT_RUNTIME_SHARE
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
NO_RT_RUNTIME_SHARE feature is used to prevent a CPU borrow enough
runtime with a spin-rt-task.

However, if RT_RUNTIME_SHARE feature is enabled and rt_rq has borrowd
enough rt_runtime at the beginning, rt_runtime can't be restored to
its initial bandwidth rt_runtime after we disable RT_RUNTIME_SHARE.

E.g. on my PC with 4 cores, procedure to reproduce:
1) Make sure  RT_RUNTIME_SHARE is enabled
 cat /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
  GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS START_DEBIT NO_NEXT_BUDDY LAST_BUDDY
  CACHE_HOT_BUDDY WAKEUP_PREEMPTION NO_HRTICK NO_DOUBLE_TICK
  LB_BIAS NONTASK_CAPACITY TTWU_QUEUE NO_SIS_AVG_CPU SIS_PROP
  NO_WARN_DOUBLE_CLOCK RT_PUSH_IPI RT_RUNTIME_SHARE NO_LB_MIN
  ATTACH_AGE_LOAD WA_IDLE WA_WEIGHT WA_BIAS
2) Start a spin-rt-task
 ./loop_rr &
3) set affinity to the last cpu
 taskset -p 8 $pid_of_loop_rr
4) Observe that last cpu have borrowed enough runtime.
 cat /proc/sched_debug | grep rt_runtime
  .rt_runtime                    : 950.000000
  .rt_runtime                    : 900.000000
  .rt_runtime                    : 950.000000
  .rt_runtime                    : 1000.000000
5) Disable RT_RUNTIME_SHARE
 echo NO_RT_RUNTIME_SHARE > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features
6) Observe that rt_runtime can not been restored
 cat /proc/sched_debug | grep rt_runtime
  .rt_runtime                    : 950.000000
  .rt_runtime                    : 900.000000
  .rt_runtime                    : 950.000000
  .rt_runtime                    : 1000.000000

This patch help to restore rt_runtime after we disable
RT_RUNTIME_SHARE.
