sched/psi: skip irqtime accounting when no new irq time has elapsed
psi_account_irqtime() reads irq_time_read() into a per-rq cumulative
counter and only bails out when the delta vs. the previously accounted
amount is negative. A delta of exactly zero is treated as "do the
work": psi_write_begin() is taken, cpu_clock(cpu) is read (which on
x86 ends up in native_sched_clock() / rdtsc) and the cgroup ancestor
chain is walked to add zero to every group's PSI_IRQ_FULL bucket.
The zero-delta case is common in practice -- it fires every time a
context switch crosses a PSI group boundary on a CPU that hasn't
serviced an interrupt between the two switches.
Measured on a 176-thread AMD EPYC 9D64 server running a compute
intensive production workload, instrumented with bpftrace over a 30s
window (irq_time_read() read directly from the per-CPU cpu_irqtime so
that delta == 0 and delta < 0 could be separated):
@total 17,229,311 (100.0%)
@ret_curr_swapper 7,864,195 ( 45.6%) curr->pid == 0
@ret_samegrp 323,299 ( 1.9%) same cgroup as prev
@reached_delta 9,041,817 ( 52.5%)
@delta_positive 6,358,192 ( 36.9%) real work
@delta_zero 2,683,625 ( 15.6%) work wasted (this patch)
@delta_negative (0) ( 0.0%) monotonic clock
So 15.6 % of all psi_account_irqtime() calls - and 29.7 % of the
calls that get past the early returns - hit the delta == 0 case;
delta < 0 did not occur once in the 30 s window. Under the current
code each of those ~89 k calls per second performs the full seqcount
write + cpu_clock() read + cgroup-chain walk just to add 0 to every
group's PSI_IRQ_FULL counter.
Extend the early-return to also cover delta == 0. rq->psi_irq_time
does not need updating in that case (it would store the same value
back) and no PSI bucket would change. The existing behaviour for
delta > 0 is untouched.
