[patch 08/18] sched: add support for throttling group entities

From: Paul Turner
Date: Thu Jul 21 2011 - 19:01:54 EST


Now that consumption is tracked (via update_curr()) we add support to throttle
group entities (and their corresponding cfs_rqs) in the case where this is no
run-time remaining.

Throttled entities are dequeued to prevent scheduling, additionally we mark
them as throttled (using cfs_rq->throttled) to prevent them from becoming
re-enqueued until they are unthrottled. A list of a task_group's throttled
entities are maintained on the cfs_bandwidth structure.

Note: While the machinery for throttling is added in this patch the act of
throttling an entity exceeding its bandwidth is deferred until later within
the series.
