In order to make accurate predictions across CPUs and for all performance states, Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) needs frequency-invariant load tracking signals. EAS task placement aims to minimize energy consumption, and does so in part by limiting the search space to only CPUs with the highest spare capacity (CPU capacity - CPU utilization) in their performance domain. Those candidates are the placement choices that will keep frequency at its lowest possible and therefore save the most energy. But without frequency invariance, a CPU's utilization is relative to the CPU's current performance level, and not relative to its maximum performance level, which determines its capacity. As a result, it will fail to correctly indicate any potential spare capacity obtained by an increase in a CPU's performance level. Therefore, a non-invariant utilization signal would render the EAS task placement logic invalid. Now that we properly report support for the Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) through arch_scale_freq_invariant() for arm and arm64 systems, while also ensuring a re-evaluation of the EAS use conditions for possible invariance status change, we can assert this is the case when initializing EAS. Warn and bail out otherwise.
