I believe we notice this at least several months ago. https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/25/228 > > Signed-off-by: Steve Muckle <smuc...@linaro.org> > --- > kernel/sched/fair.c | 2 +- > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/kernel/sched/fair.c b/kernel/sched/fair.c > index 61d485421bed..95d34b337152 100644 > --- a/kernel/sched/fair.c > +++ b/kernel/sched/fair.c > @@ -2731,7 +2731,7 @@ __update_load_avg(u64 now, int cpu, struct sched_avg > *sa, > sa->last_update_time = now; > > scale_freq = arch_scale_freq_capacity(NULL, cpu); > - scale_cpu = arch_scale_cpu_capacity(NULL, cpu); > + scale_cpu = arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu_rq(cpu)->sd, cpu); > > /* delta_w is the amount already accumulated against our next period > */ > delta_w = sa->period_contrib; > -- > 2.7.3 > -- Regards, Wanpeng Li
