sched: Make struct sched_statistics independent of fair sched class
If we want to use the schedstats facility to trace other sched classes, we should make it independent of fair sched class. The struct sched_statistics is the schedular statistics of a task_struct or a task_group. So we can move it into struct task_struct and struct task_group to achieve the goal. After the patch, schestats are orgnized as follows, struct task_struct { ... struct sched_entity se; struct sched_rt_entity rt; struct sched_dl_entity dl; ... struct sched_statistics stats; ... }; Regarding the task group, schedstats is only supported for fair group sched, and a new struct sched_entity_stats is introduced, suggested by Peter - struct sched_entity_stats { struct sched_entity se; struct sched_statistics stats; } __no_randomize_layout; Then with the se in a task_group, we can easily get the stats. The sched_statistics members may be frequently modified when schedstats is enabled, in order to avoid impacting on random data which may in the same cacheline with them, the struct sched_statistics is defined as cacheline aligned. As this patch changes the core struct of scheduler, so I verified the performance it may impact on the scheduler with 'perf bench sched pipe', suggested by Mel. Below is the result, in which all the values are in usecs/op. Before After kernel.sched_schedstats=0 5.2~5.4 5.2~5.4 kernel.sched_schedstats=1 5.3~5.5 5.3~5.5 [These data is a little difference with the earlier version, that is because my old test machine is destroyed so I have to use a new different test machine.] Almost no impact on the sched performance. No functional change.
