+ * __update_cpu_load - update the rq->cpu_load[] statistics
+ * @this_rq: The rq to update statistics for

+ * @pending_updates: The number of missed updates
+ * @active: !0 for NOHZ_FULL

* Update rq->cpu_load[] statistics. This function is usually called every

- * every tick. We fix it up based on jiffies.
+ * scheduler tick (TICK_NSEC).
+ *
+ * This function computes a decaying average:
+ *
+ * load[i]' = (1 - 1/2^i) * load[i] + (1/2^i) * load
+ *
+ * Because of NOHZ it might not get called on every tick which gives need for
+ * the @pending_updates argument.
+ *
+ * load[i]_n = (1 - 1/2^i) * load[i]_n-1 + (1/2^i) * load_n-1
+ * = A * load[i]_n-1 + B ; A := (1 - 1/2^i), B := (1/2^i) * load
+ * = A * (A * load[i]_n-2 + B) + B
+ * = A * (A * (A * load[i]_n-3 + B) + B) + B
+ * = A^3 * load[i]_n-3 + (A^2 + A + 1) * B
+ * = A^n * load[i]_0 + (A^(n-1) + A^(n-2) + ... + 1) * B
+ * = A^n * load[i]_0 + ((1 - A^n) / (1 - A)) * B
+ * = (1 - 1/2^i)^n * (load[i]_0 - load) + load
+ *
+ * In the above we've assumed load_n := load, which is true for NOHZ_FULL as
+ * any change in load would have resulted in the tick being turned back on.
+ *
+ * For regular NOHZ, this reduces to:
+ *
+ * load[i]_n = (1 - 1/2^i)^n * load[i]_0
+ *
+ * see decay_load_misses(). For NOHZ_FULL we get to subtract and add the extra
+ * term. See the @active paramter.
