See calc_load_fold_active(). * *    Furthermore, in order to avoid synchronizing all per-CPU delta folding *    across the machine, we assume 10 ticks is sufficient time for every *    CPU to have completed this task. * *    This places an upper-bound on the IRQ-off latency of the machine. Then *    again, being late doesn't loose the delta, just wrecks the sample. * *  - cpu_rq()->nr_uninterruptible isn't accurately tracked per-CPU because *    this would add another cross-CPU cache-line miss and atomic operation *    to the wakeup path. Instead we increment on whatever CPU the task ran *    when it went into uninterruptible state and decrement on whatever CPU *    did the wakeup. This means that only the sum of nr_uninterruptible over *    all CPUs yields the correct result. * *  This covers the NO_HZ=n code, for extra head-aches, see the comment below. */ /* Variables and functions for calc_load */atomic_long_t calc_load_tasks;unsigned long calc_load_update;unsigned long avenrun[3];EXPORT_SYMBOL(avenrun); /* should be removed */ /** * get_avenrun - get the load average array * @loads:	pointer to destination load array * @offset:	offset to add * @shift:	shift count to shift the result left * * These values are estimates at best, so no need for locking. */void get_avenrun(unsigned long *loads, unsigned long offset, int shift){	loads[0] = (avenrun[0] + offset) << shift;	loads[1] = (avenrun[1] + offset) << shift;	loads[2] = (avenrun[2] + offset) << shift;} long calc_load_fold_active(struct rq *this_rq, long adjust){	long nr_active, delta = 0; 	nr_active = this_rq->nr_running - adjust;	nr_active += (long)this_rq->nr_uninterruptible; 	if (nr_active != this_rq->calc_load_active) {		delta = nr_active - this_rq->calc_load_active;		this_rq->calc_load_active = nr_active;	} 	return delta;} /** * fixed_power_int - compute: x^n, in O(log n) time * * @x:         base of the power * @frac_bits: fractional bits of @x * @n:         power to raise @x to. * * By exploiting the relation between the definition of the natural power * function: x^n := x*x*...*x (x multiplied by itself for n times), and * the binary encoding of numbers used by computers: n := \Sum n_i * 2^i, * (where: n_i \elem {0, 1}, the binary vector representing n), * we find: x^n := x^(\Sum n_i * 2^i) := \Prod x^(n_i * 2^i), which is * of course trivially computable in O(log_2 n), the length of our binary * vector. */static unsigned longfixed_power_int(unsigned long x, unsigned int frac_bits, unsigned int n){	unsigned long result = 1UL << frac_bits; 	if (n) {		for (;;) {			if (n & 1) {				result *= x;				result += 1UL << (frac_bits - 1);				result >>= frac_bits;			}			n >>= 1;			if (!n)				break;			x *= x;			x += 1UL << (frac_bits - 1);			x >>= frac_bits;		}	} 	return result;} /* * a1 = a0 * e + a * (1 - e) * * a2 = a1 * e + a * (1 - e) *    = (a0 * e + a * (1 - e)) * e + a * (1 - e) *    = a0 * e^2 + a * (1 - e) * (1 + e) * * a3 = a2 * e + a * (1 - e) *    = (a0 * e^2 + a * (1 - e) * (1 + e)) * e + a * (1 - e) *    = a0 * e^3 + a * (1 - e) * (1 + e + e^2) * *  ... * * an = a0 * e^n + a * (1 - e) * (1 + e + ... + e^n-1) [1] *    = a0 * e^n + a * (1 - e) * (1 - e^n)/(1 - e) *    = a0 * e^n + a * (1 - e^n) * * [1] application of the geometric series: * *              n         1 - x^(n+1) *     S_n := \Sum x^i = ------------- *             i=0          1 - x */unsigned longcalc_load_n(unsigned long load, unsigned long exp,	    unsigned long active, unsigned int n){	return calc_load(load, fixed_power_int(exp, FSHIFT, n), active);} #ifdef CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON/* * Handle NO_HZ for the global load-average. * * Since the above described distributed algorithm to compute the global * load-average relies on per-CPU sampling from the tick, it is affected by * NO_HZ. * * The basic idea is to fold the nr_active delta into a global NO_HZ-delta upon * entering NO_HZ state such that we can include this as an 'extra' CPU delta * when we read the global state. * * Obviously reality has to ruin such a delightfully simple scheme: * *  - When we go NO_HZ idle during the window, we can negate our sample *    contribution, causing under-accounting. * *    We avoid this by keeping two NO_HZ-delta counters and flipping them *    when the window starts, thus separating old and new NO_HZ load. * *    The only trick is the slight shift in index flip for read vs write. * *        0s            5s            10s           15s *          +10           +10           +10           +10 *        |-|-----------|-|-----------|-|-----------|-| *    r:0 0 1           1 0           0 1           1 0 *    w:0 1 1           0 0           1 1           0 0 * *    This ensures we'll fold the old NO_HZ contribution in this window while *    accumulating the new one. * *  - When we wake up from NO_HZ during the window, we push up our *    contribution, since we effectively move our sample point to a known *    busy state. * *    This is solved by pushing the window forward, and thus skipping the *    sample, for this CPU (effectively using the NO_HZ-delta for this CPU which *    was in effect at the time the window opened).
