sched: rt-group: deal with PI
Steven mentioned the fun case where a lock holding task will be throttled. Simple fix: allow groups that have boosted tasks to run anyway. If a runnable task in a throttled group gets boosted the dequeue/enqueue done by rt_mutex_setprio() is enough to unthrottle the group. This is ofcourse not quite correct. Two possible ways forward are: - second prio array for boosted tasks - boost to a prio ceiling (this would also work for deadline scheduling) Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
