This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sched/uclamp: Cater for uclamp in find_energy_efficient_cpu()'s early exit condition to the 6.1-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-uclamp-cater-for-uclamp-in-find_energy_efficie.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 4a7bb54d8f0099bdd583ea98ace01f8616a09e20 Author: Qais Yousef <qais.yousef@xxxxxxx> Date: Thu Aug 4 15:36:07 2022 +0100 sched/uclamp: Cater for uclamp in find_energy_efficient_cpu()'s early exit condition [ Upstream commit d81304bc6193554014d4372a01debdf65e1e9a4d ] If the utilization of the woken up task is 0, we skip the energy calculation because it has no impact. But if the task is boosted (uclamp_min != 0) will have an impact on task placement and frequency selection. Only skip if the util is truly 0 after applying uclamp values. Change uclamp_task_cpu() signature to avoid unnecessary additional calls to uclamp_eff_get(). feec() is the only user now.
