From: Xuewen Yan <xuewen....@unisoc.com> CPU (root cfs_rq) estimated utilization (util_est) is currently used in dequeue_task_fair() to drive frequency selection before it is updated.
with: CPU_util : rq->cfs.avg.util_avg CPU_util_est : rq->cfs.avg.util_est CPU_utilization : max(CPU_util, CPU_util_est) task_util : p->se.avg.util_avg task_util_est : p->se.avg.util_est dequeue_task_fair(): /* (1) CPU_util and task_util update + inform schedutil about CPU_utilization changes */ for_each_sched_entity() /* 2 loops */ (dequeue_entity() ->) update_load_avg() -> cfs_rq_util_change() -> cpufreq_update_util() ->...-> sugov_update_[shared\|single] -> sugov_get_util() -> cpu_util_cfs() /* (2) CPU_util_est and task_util_est update */ util_est_dequeue() cpu_util_cfs() uses CPU_utilization which could lead to a false (too high) utilization value for schedutil in task ramp-down or ramp-up scenarios during task dequeue. To mitigate the issue split the util_est update (2) into: (A) CPU_util_est update in util_est_dequeue() (B) task_util_est update in util_est_update() Place (A) before (1) and keep (B) where (2) is. The latter is necessary since (B) relies on task_util update in (1).
