sched/fair: Rework and comment the group_imb code
Rik reported some weirdness due to the group_imb code. As a start to looking at it, clean it up a little and add a few explanatory comments.

/*
|
||||
* Group imbalance indicates (and tries to solve) the problem where balancing
|
||||
* groups is inadequate due to tsk_cpus_allowed() constraints.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Imagine a situation of two groups of 4 cpus each and 4 tasks each with a
|
||||
* cpumask covering 1 cpu of the first group and 3 cpus of the second group.
|
||||
* Something like:
|
||||
*
|
||||
* { 0 1 2 3 } { 4 5 6 7 }
|
||||
* * * * *
|
||||
*
|
||||
* If we were to balance group-wise we'd place two tasks in the first group and
|
||||
* two tasks in the second group. Clearly this is undesired as it will overload
|
||||
* cpu 3 and leave one of the cpus in the second group unused.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* The current solution to this issue is detecting the skew in the first group
|
||||
* by noticing it has a cpu that is overloaded while the remaining cpus are
|
||||
* idle -- or rather, there's a distinct imbalance in the cpus; see
|
||||
* sg_imbalanced().
|
||||
*
|
||||
* When this is so detected; this group becomes a candidate for busiest; see
|
||||
* update_sd_pick_busiest(). And calculcate_imbalance() and
|
||||
* find_busiest_group() avoid some of the usual balance conditional to allow it
|
||||
* to create an effective group imbalance.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* This is a somewhat tricky proposition since the next run might not find the
|
||||
* group imbalance and decide the groups need to be balanced again. A most
|
||||
* subtle and fragile situation.
