Not sure what you mean by sched_entity here, since this is only taking the "removed" load_avg and removing it from cfs_rq, together with (removed.load_avg * divider) from load_sum. (Although. ".removed" comes from a sched entity) > Then, we start to remove this load in update_cfs_rq_load_avg() before > calling __update_load_avg_cfs_rq so contrib should not have change and > we should be safe For what it is worth, I am now able to reproduce it (maybe CONFIG_HZ=300/250 is the thing) as reported by Sachin, and my patch makes it disappear. Without my patch I see situations where _sum is zero while _avg is eg. 1 or 2 or 14 (in that range). This happens for both load, runnable and util. Lets see what Sachin reports back. Thanks Odin
