CFS的主要思想如下：
- 根据普通进程的优先级nice值来定一个比重(weight)，该比重用来计算进程的实际运行时间到虚拟运行时间(vruntime)的换算；不言而喻优先级高的进程运行更多的时间和优先级低的进程运行更少的时间在vruntime上是等价的；
- 根据rq->cfs_rq中进程的数量计算一个总的period周期，每个进程再根据自己的weight占整个的比重来计算自己的理想运行时间(ideal_runtime)，在scheduler_tick()中判断如果进程的实际运行时间(exec_runtime)已经达到理想运行时间(ideal_runtime)，则进程需要被调度test_tsk_need_resched(curr)。有了period，那么cfs_rq中所有进程在period以内必会得到调度
- 与此同时,设定一个调度周期（sched_latency_ns），目标是让每个进程在这个周期内至少有机会运行一次，换一种说法就是每个进程等待CPU的时间最长不超过这个调度周期
- 另一个参数sched_min_granularity_ns发挥作用的一个场景是，CFS把调度周期sched_latency按照进程的数量平分，给每个进程平均分配CPU时间片（当然要按照 nice值加权,即根据weight），但是如果进程数量太多的话，就会造成CPU时间片太小，如果小于 sched_min_granularity_ns的话就以sched_min_granularity_ns为准；而调度周期也随之不再遵守 sched_latency_ns，而是以 (sched_min_granularity_ns * 进程数量) 的乘积为准。
- 参数sched_min_granularity_ns发挥作用的另一个场景是:参数限定了一个唤醒进程要抢占当前进程之前必须满足的条件：只有当该唤醒进程的vruntime比当前进程的vruntime小、并且两者差距 (vdiff)大于sched_wakeup_granularity_ns的情况下，才可以抢占，否则不可以。这个参数越大，发生唤醒抢占就越不容易。
- 根据进程的虚拟运行时间(vruntime)，把rq->cfs_rq中的进程组织成一个红黑树(平衡二叉树)，那么在pick_next_entity时树的最左节点就是运行时间最少的进程，是最好的需要调度的候选人。
- 今天九月一号，需要加油哦。哈哈。
既然task是通过vruntime时间来组织红黑树，并且调度算法也是通过最左边的叶子节点(最小的vruntime)来调度task的。我们先看看vruntime怎么计算？
##vruntime怎么计算的
每个进程的vruntime = runtime * (NICE_0_LOAD/nice_n_weight)
我们能够看到优先级对应的权重设定如下：
nice(0)=NICE_0_LOAD = 1024，nice(1)=nice(0)/1.25,nice(-1)=nice(0)*1.25，如下表所示：
/* 该表的主要思想是，高一个等级的weight是低一个等级的 1.25 倍 */
/*
* Nice levels are multiplicative, with a gentle 10% change for every
* nice level changed. I.e. when a CPU-bound task goes from nice 0 to
* nice 1, it will get ~10% less CPU time than another CPU-bound task
* that remained on nice 0.
*
* The "10% effect" is relative and cumulative: from _any_ nice level,
* if you go up 1 level, it's -10% CPU usage, if you go down 1 level
* it's +10% CPU usage. (to achieve that we use a multiplier of 1.25.
* If a task goes up by ~10% and another task goes down by ~10% then
* the relative distance between them is ~25%.)
*/
static const int prio_to_weight[40] = {
/* -20 */ 88761, 71755, 56483, 46273, 36291,

NICE_0_LOAD(1024)在schedule计算中是一个非常神奇的数字，它的含义就是基准”1”。因为kernel不能表示小数，所以把1放大称为1024。

既然知道了vruntime的数值，那么scheduler是如何来决定是否调度某个task的？
##理想运行时间/sched period
period目的是计算一段时间内，各个task的可以运行的时间，即分配的时间片。在cfs_rq里面的分配的时间片是根据task的weight计算得来的。
在上面的代码分析过程中，我们看到，如果cfs_rq的nr_running>1，则检测是否有task需要调度：scheduler_tick—>task_tick_fair—>entity_tick—>check_preempt_tick:

return;
/*挑选红黑树最左边的节点进行运行*/

if (delta < 0)
return;
/*这个没搞明白为何是delta去比较？？？、*/
if (delta > ideal_runtime)
resched_curr(rq_of(cfs_rq));
}
sched_slice是怎么计算ideal_runtime的？
/*

##进程怎么插入到红黑树的

if (sched_feat(INTEL_DWS))
update_rq_runnable_task_avg(rq);
#endif
p->sched_class->enqueue_task(rq, p, flags);
}
/*

*/
static void __enqueue_entity(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se)
{
/*红黑树的根节点*/
struct rb_node **link = &cfs_rq->tasks_timeline.rb_node;
struct rb_node *parent = NULL;
struct sched_entity *entry;
int leftmost = 1;
/*
* Find the right place in the rbtree:
*/
while (*link) {
parent = *link;
entry = rb_entry(parent, struct sched_entity, run_node);
/*
* We dont care about collisions. Nodes with
* the same key stay together.
*/
/*比较se的vruntime，小的会放到rb tree的rb_left*/
if (entity_before(se, entry)) {
link = &parent->rb_left;
} else {
link = &parent->rb_right;
leftmost = 0;
}
}
/*
* Maintain a cache of leftmost tree entries (it is frequently
* used):
*/
if (leftmost)
cfs_rq->rb_leftmost = &se->run_node;
rb_link_node(&se->run_node, parent, link);
rb_insert_color(&se->run_node, &cfs_rq->tasks_timeline);
}
根据enqueue task的调度时机决策哪个task插入rb tree中：
- 新创建的进程
- idle进程被wakeup
- task的balance(迁移)
- 改变task的cpu亲和性
- 改变task的优先级
- 将task从一个task group设置到新的task group中，如果改变task的rq的话
一般改变task的行为，都会触发重新计算task的vruntime的数值，也就会导致重新插入到对应cpu上的rq rb tree
##sched_entity和task group的关系
因为新的内核加入了task_group的概念，所以现在不是使用task_struct结构直接参与到schedule计算当中，而是使用sched_entity结构。一个sched_entity结构可能是一个task也可能是一个task_group->se[cpu]。上图非常好的描述了这些结构之间的关系。
其中主要的层次关系如下：
- 一个cpu只对应一个rq;
- 一个rq有一个cfs_rq；
- cfs_rq使用红黑树组织多个同一层级的sched_entity；
- 如果sched_entity对应的是一个task_struct，那sched_entity和task是一对一的关系；
- 如果sched_entity对应的是task_group，那么他是一个task_group多个sched_entity中的一个。task_group有一个数组se[cpu]，在每个cpu上都有一个sched_entity。这种类型的sched_entity有自己的cfs_rq，一个sched_entity对应一个cfs_rq(se->my_q)，cfs_rq再继续使用红黑树组织多个同一层级的sched_entity；3-5的层次关系可以继续递归下去。
##几个特殊时刻vruntime的变化
处了常规的scheduler_tick根据tickless更新vruntime，更加进程的状态，调度时机，都会改变vruntime数值。
- 新创建的进程vruntime是多少？
假如新进程的vruntime初值为0的话，比老进程的值小很多，那么它在相当长的时间内都会保持抢占CPU的优势，老进程就要饿死了，这显然是不公平的。
CFS的做法是：取父进程vruntime(curr->vruntime) 和 (cfs_rq->min_vruntime + 假设se运行过一轮的值)之间的最大值，赋给新创建进程。把新进程对现有进程的调度影响降到最小。

- 休眠进程的vruntime一直保持不变吗？
如果休眠进程的 vruntime 保持不变，而其他运行进程的 vruntime 一直在推进，那么等到休眠进程终于唤醒的时候，它的vruntime比别人小很多，会使它获得长时间抢占CPU的优势，其他进程就要饿死了。这显然是另一种形式的不公平。
CFS是这样做的：在休眠进程被唤醒时重新设置vruntime值，以min_vruntime值为基础，给予一定的补偿，但不能补偿太多。
static void
enqueue_entity(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se, int flags)
{
if (flags & ENQUEUE_WAKEUP) {
/* (1) 计算进程唤醒后的vruntime */
place_entity(cfs_rq, se, 0);
enqueue_sleeper(cfs_rq, se);
}
}
|→
static void
place_entity(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se, int initial)
{
/* (1.1) 初始值是cfs_rq的当前最小值min_vruntime */
u64 vruntime = cfs_rq->min_vruntime;
/*
* The 'current' period is already promised to the current tasks,
* however the extra weight of the new task will slow them down a
* little, place the new task so that it fits in the slot that
* stays open at the end.
*/
if (initial && sched_feat(START_DEBIT))
vruntime += sched_vslice(cfs_rq, se);
/* sleeps up to a single latency don't count. */
/* 在最小值min_vruntime的基础上给予补偿，
默认补偿值是3ms(sysctl_sched_latency/2) wakeup initial=0
*/
if (!initial) {
unsigned long thresh = sysctl_sched_latency;
/*
* Halve their sleep time's effect, to allow
* for a gentler effect of sleepers:
*/
if (sched_feat(GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS))
thresh >>= 1;
vruntime -= thresh;
}
/* ensure we never gain time by being placed backwards. */
se->vruntime = max_vruntime(se->vruntime, vruntime);
}
- 休眠进程在唤醒时会立刻抢占CPU吗？
进程被唤醒默认是会马上检查是否库抢占，因为唤醒的vruntime在cfs_rq的最小值min_vruntime基础上进行了补偿，所以他肯定会抢占当前的进程。
CFS可以通过禁止WAKEUP_PREEMPTION来禁止唤醒抢占，不过这也就失去了抢占特性。

所以一般唤醒进程会立即运行,就算你wakup立马sleep,也会先抢占在休眠
- 进程从一个CPU迁移到另一个CPU上的时候vruntime会不会变？
不同cpu的负载时不一样的，所以不同cfs_rq里se的vruntime水平是不一样的。如果进程迁移vruntime不变也是非常不公平的。CFS使用了一个很聪明的做法：在退出旧的cfs_rq时减去旧cfs_rq的min_vruntime，在加入新的cfq_rq时重新加上新cfs_rq的min_vruntime。
static void
dequeue_entity(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se, int flags)
{
……………….
/*
* Normalize the entity after updating the min_vruntime because the
* update can refer to the ->curr item and we need to reflect this
* movement in our normalized position.
*/
/* 退出旧的cfs_rq时减去旧cfs_rq的min_vruntime */
if (!(flags & DEQUEUE_SLEEP))
se->vruntime -= cfs_rq->min_vruntime;
……………….
}
static void
enqueue_entity(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se, int flags)
{
……………….
/*
* Update the normalized vruntime before updating min_vruntime
* through calling update_curr().
*/
/* 加入新的cfq_rq时重新加上新cfs_rq的min_vruntime */
if (!(flags & ENQUEUE_WAKEUP) || (flags & ENQUEUE_WAKING))
se->vruntime += cfs_rq->min_vruntime;
……………….
}
至此基本的调度算法怎么挑选一个task,根据vruntime数值插入rb tree和调度se,这部分简单.后续会陆续讲解调度器如何分配task到其他cpu上,即balance
