The average running time of RT tasks is used to estimate the remaining compute capacity for CFS tasks. This remaining capacity is the original capacity scaled down by a factor (aka scale_rt_capacity). This estimation of available capacity must also be invariant with frequency scaling. A frequency scaling factor is applied on the running time of the RT tasks for computing scale_rt_capacity. In sched_rt_avg_update, we scale the RT execution time like below: rq->rt_avg += rt_delta * arch_scale_freq_capacity() >> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT Then, scale_rt_capacity can be summarized by: scale_rt_capacity = SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE - ((rq->rt_avg << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT) / period)
The 'period' aka 'total' in the scale_rt_capacity(), why it is sched_avg_period() + delta instead of sched_avg_period()? Regards, Wanpeng Li

We can optimize by removing right and left shift in the computation of rq->rt_avg and scale_rt_capacity The call to arch_scale_frequency_capacity in the rt scheduling path might be a concern for RT folks because I'm not sure whether we can rely on arch_scale_freq_capacity to be short and efficient ?
