sched/loadavg: Avoid loadavg spikes caused by delayed NO_HZ accounting ...
commit 6e5f32f7a43f45ee55c401c0b9585eb01f9629a8 upstream.
If we crossed a sample window while in NO_HZ we will add LOAD_FREQ to
the pending sample window time on exit, setting the next update not
one window into the future, but two.
This situation on exiting NO_HZ is described by:
this_rq->calc_load_update < jiffies < calc_load_update
In this scenario, what we should be doing is:
this_rq->calc_load_update = calc_load_update [ next window ]
But what we actually do is:
this_rq->calc_load_update = calc_load_update + LOAD_FREQ [ next+1 window ]
This has the effect of delaying load average updates for potentially
up to ~9seconds.
This can result in huge spikes in the load average values due to
per-cpu uninterruptible task counts being out of sync when accumulated
across all CPUs.
It's safe to update the per-cpu active count if we wake between sample
windows because any load that we left in 'calc_load_idle' will have
been zero'd when the idle load was folded in calc_global_load().
This issue is easy to reproduce before,
