The estimated utilization for a task: util_est = max(util_avg, est.enqueue, est.ewma) is defined based on: - util_avg: the PELT defined utilization - est.enqueued: the util_avg at the end of the last activation - est.ewma: a exponential moving average on the est.enqueued samples According to this definition, when a task suddenly changes its bandwidth requirements from small to big, the EWMA will need to collect multiple samples before converging up to track the new big utilization. This slow convergence towards bigger utilization values is not aligned to the default scheduler behavior, which is to optimize for performance. Moreover, the est.ewma component fails to compensate for temporarely utilization drops which spans just few est.enqueued samples. To let util_est do a better job in the scenario depicted above, change its definition by making util_est directly follow upward motion and only decay the est.ewma on downward.
