From 3b524d60943a2f9ee1194323ff9d5ee01a4d1ce1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Li Bin Date: Mon, 9 Sep 2013 14:05:40 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] sched/Documentation: Update sched-design-CFS.txt documentation 2bd2d6f2dc ("sched: Replace use of entity_key()") had remove the entity_key() which function is to subtract a tasks vruntime by its groups minvruntime as the rbtree key. The phrase "there is a subtraction using rq->cfs.min_vruntime to account for possible wraparounds" in documentation feels strange and meaningless. So remove it.

CFS maintains a time-ordered rbtree, where all runnable tasks are sorted by the -p->se.vruntime key (there is a subtraction using rq->cfs.min_vruntime to -account for possible wraparounds).

As the system progresses forwards, the executed tasks are put into the tree more and more to the right --- slowly but surely giving a chance for every task to become the "leftmost task" and thus get on the CPU within a deterministic -- 2.20.1
