In the linus tree, the first commit which introduced
__synchronize_entity_decay(&p->se) here is
9ee474f55664ff63111c843099d365e7ecffb56f
+
+#if defined(CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED) && defined(CONFIG_SMP)
+ /*
+ * Remove our load from contribution when we leave sched_fair
+ * and ensure we don't carry in an old decay_count if we
+ * switch back.
+ */
+ if (p->se.avg.decay_count) {
+ struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq = cfs_rq_of(&p->se);
+ __synchronize_entity_decay(&p->se);
+ subtract_blocked_load_contrib(cfs_rq,
+ p->se.avg.load_avg_contrib);
+ }
+#endif
}
And it is never changed from then on. So your code must based on a
incorrect kernel. please do a double check.
