This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sched: Fix UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE setting to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: sched-fix-uclamp_flag_idle-setting.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e75d43f86e7dd116ce34cfaf5124e2bc42ec6a51 Author: Quentin Perret <qperret@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Aug 5 11:21:53 2021 +0100 sched: Fix UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE setting [ Upstream commit ca4984a7dd863f3e1c0df775ae3e744bff24c303 ] The UCLAMP_FLAG_IDLE flag is set on a runqueue when dequeueing the last uclamp active task (that is, when buckets.tasks reaches 0 for all buckets) to maintain the last uclamp.max and prevent blocked util from suddenly becoming visible. However, there is an asymmetry in how the flag is set and cleared which can lead to having the flag set whilst there are active tasks on the rq. Specifically, the flag is cleared in the uclamp_rq_inc() path, which is called at enqueue time, but set in uclamp_rq_dec_id() which is called both when dequeueing a task _and_ in the update_uclamp_active() path. As a result, when both uclamp_rq_{dec,ind}_id() are called from update_uclamp_active(), the flag ends up being set but not cleared, hence leaving the runqueue in a broken state. Fix this by clearing the flag in update_uclamp_active() as well.
