sched/cache: Keep nr_pref_llc_running in the runnable domain, to fix LLC mis-scheduling buggrafted
alb_break_llc() decides whether to break LLC preference during active load balance. It does so by testing that every runnable fair task on the source rq prefers its LLC: env->src_rq->nr_pref_llc_running == env->src_rq->cfs.h_nr_runnable But the two counters cover different sets. nr_pref_llc_running is updated in account_llc_enqueue()/account_llc_dequeue(), next to cfs_rq->nr_queued, so it follows queued tasks. h_nr_runnable is updated in set_delayed()/ clear_delayed() and drops delay-dequeued tasks. So under DELAY_DEQUEUE, a preferring task that goes to sleep stays counted in nr_pref_llc_running while h_nr_runnable falls. The equality then breaks, alb_break_llc() returns false, and active balance is free to pull a task off its preferred LLC. Active balance only moves runnable tasks, and this is the only LLC check it consults: once the stopper runs, LBF_ACTIVE_LB skips the per-task test in can_migrate_task(). The runnable set is the one we want. Fix it on the counter side. A task should be counted in nr_pref_llc_running exactly while it is both queued on its preferred LLC (pref_llc_queued) and runnable (!sched_delayed). Define that membership once in task_pref_llc_runnable(), and adjust the counter only through pref_llc_running_inc()/pref_llc_running_dec() from the four sites that change either input: account_llc_enqueue(), account_llc_dequeue(), set_delayed() and clear_delayed(). Gating every update on the same predicate keeps the delay, wake and dequeue paths from double-counting or underflowing; see the comments at those sites for the ordering. nr_llc_running and sd->llc_counts are not touched and stay on queued semantics.

+ default M686
+ help
+ This is the processor type of your CPU. This information is
+ used for optimizing purposes. In order to compile a kernel
+ that can run on all supported x86 CPU types (albeit not
+ optimally fast), you can specify "586" here.
+
+ Note that the 386 and 486 is no longer supported, this includes
+ AMD/Cyrix/Intel 386DX/DXL/SL/SLC/SX, Cyrix/TI 486DLC/DLC2,
+ UMC 486SX-S and the NexGen Nx586, AMD ELAN and all 486 based
+ CPUs.
+
+ The kernel will not necessarily run on earlier architectures than
+ the one you have chosen, e.g. a Pentium optimized kernel will run on
+ a PPro, but not necessarily on a i486.
+
+ Here are the settings recommended for greatest speed:
+ - "586" for generic Pentium CPUs lacking the TSC
+ (time stamp counter) register.
+ - "Pentium-Classic" for the Intel Pentium.
+ - "Pentium-MMX" for the Intel Pentium MMX.
+ - "Pentium-Pro" for the Intel Pentium Pro.
+ - "Pentium-II" for the Intel Pentium II or pre-Coppermine Celeron.
+ - "Pentium-III" for the Intel Pentium III or Coppermine Celeron.
+ - "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based Celeron.
+ - "K6" for the AMD K6, K6-II and K6-III (aka K6-3D).
+ - "Athlon" for the AMD K7 family (Athlon/Duron/Thunderbird).
+ - "Crusoe" for the Transmeta Crusoe series.
+ - "Efficeon" for the Transmeta Efficeon series.
+ - "AMD Elan" for the 32-bit AMD Elan embedded CPU.
+ - "GeodeGX1" for Geode GX1 (Cyrix MediaGX).
+ - "Geode GX/LX" For AMD Geode GX and LX processors.
+ - "CyrixIII/VIA C3" for VIA Cyrix III or VIA C3.
+ - "VIA C3-2" for VIA C3-2 "Nehemiah" (model 9 and above).
+ - "VIA C7" for VIA C7.
+ - "Intel Atom" for the Atom-microarchitecture CPUs.
+
+ See each option's help text for additional details. If you don't know
+ what to do, choose "Pentium-Pro".
+
