When cpufreq's policy is 'single', there is a scenario that will cause sg_policy's next_freq to be unable to update. When the CPU's util is always max, the cpufreq will be max, and then if we change the policy's scaling_max_freq to be a lower freq, indeed, the sg_policy's next_freq need change to be the lower freq, however, because the cpu_is_busy, the next_freq would keep the max_freq. For example: The cpu7 is a single CPU: unisoc:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7 # while true;do done& [1] 4737 unisoc:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7 # taskset -p 80 4737 pid 4737's current affinity mask: ff pid 4737's new affinity mask: 80 unisoc:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7 # cat scaling_max_freq 2301000 unisoc:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7 # cat scaling_cur_freq 2301000 unisoc:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7 # echo 2171000 > scaling_max_freq unisoc:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy7 # cat scaling_max_freq 2171000 At this time, the sg_policy's next_freq would stay at 2301000, which is wrong. To fix this, add a check for the ->need_freq_update flag.
