https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100771 --- Comment #3 from Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@xxxxxxxxx> --- This is a normal behavior IMO. 1. task_b with nice = 1 does not mean task_a will always occupy the time slice, it is CFS scheduler, which means even task with nice = 19 will get chance to run. 2.When you enable ignore_nice_load, the task_b with nice = 1 will be considered to be idle, which means that, the total time task_b is running, will be added to current cpu's idle time, which will cause the cpufreq governor to treat the cpu load lower than when ignore_nice_load disabled.
