[PATCH 02/23] sched: log the cpu utilization at rq

From: Alex Shi
Date: Fri Dec 07 2012 - 08:37:58 EST


The cpu's utilization is to measure how busy is the cpu.
util = cpu_rq(cpu)->avg.runnable_avg_sum * SCHED_POEWR_SCALE
/ cpu_rq(cpu)->avg.runnable_avg_period;

Since the util is no more than 1, we scale its value with 1024, same as
SCHED_POWER_SCALE and set the FULL_UTIL as 1024.

In later power aware scheduling, we are sensitive for how busy of the
cpu. Since as to power consuming, it is tight related with cpu busy
time.

BTW, rq->util can be used for any purposes if needed, not only power
scheduling.
