It is exposed via _task_util_est() (and task_util_est()). Commit 92a801e5d5b7 ("sched/fair: Mask UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED usages") mentions that the LSB is lost for util_est resolution but find_energy_efficient_cpu() checks if task_util_est() returns 0 to return prev_cpu early. _task_util_est() returns the max value of util_est.ewma and util_est.enqueued or'ed w/ UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED. So task_util_est() returning the max of task_util() and _task_util_est() will never return 0 under the default SCHED_FEAT(UTIL_EST, true). To fix this use the MSB of util_est.enqueued instead and keep the flag util_est internal, i.e. don't export it via _task_util_est(). The maximal possible util_avg value for a task is 1024 so the MSB of 'unsigned int util_est.enqueued' isn't used to store a util value. As a caveat the code behind the util_est_se trace point has to filter UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED to see the real util_est.enqueued value which should be easy to do. This also fixes an issue report by Xuewen Yan that util_est_update() only used UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED for the subtrahend of the equation: last_enqueued_diff = ue.enqueued - (task_util() | UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED) Fixes: b89997aa88f0b sched/pelt: Fix task util_est update filtering Signed-off-by: Dietmar Eggemann --- v1->v2: 1) Move UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED definition into struct util_est. 2) Hide UTIL_AVG_UNCHANGED in proc_sched_show_task(). include/linux/sched.h | 8 ++++++++ kernel/sched/debug.c | 3 ++- kernel/sched/fair.c | 5 +++-- kernel/sched/pelt.h | 11 +---------- 4 files changed, 14 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/sched.h b/include/linux/sched.h index c7e7d50e2fdc..ac5a7d29fd4f 100644 --- a/include/linux/sched.h +++ b/include/linux/sched.h @@ -350,11 +350,19 @@ struct load_weight { * Only for tasks we track a moving average of the past instantaneous * estimated utilization.
