Sorry to confuse you, here is a more detailed function call graph.


rq_offline_rt()
__disable_runtime()
sched_rt_rq_enqueue()
enqueue_top_rt_rq()
cpufreq_update_util() <-- depends on CONFIG_CPU_FREQ
data->func(data, *rq_clock(rq)*, flags);
intel_pstate_update_util() <-- on my machine, I have set cpufreq to powersave

Perhaps we need to add the above information to the commit Changelog?

AFAICT this is __disable_runtime() re-queueing throttled RT tasks

Your unwind is dodgy, what CONFIG_UNWINDER do you have?

CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC=y
# CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER is not set



I try to use another configuration:

# CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC is not set
CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER=y

The log is as follows

Before calling set_rq_offline() we need to update the rq clock to avoid
using the old rq clock, and use rq_lock_irqsave()/rq_unlock_irqrestore()
to replace raw_spin_rq_lock_irqsave()/raw_spin_rq_unlock_irqrestore() to
ensure that rq->clock_update_flags are cleared before updating the rq
clock.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_CPU_FREQ when compiling the kernel
2. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/clear_warn_once
3. cpupower -c all frequency-set -g powersave
4. Run some rt tasks e.g. Create 5*n rt (100% running) tasks (on a
system with n CPUs)
5. Offline cpu one by one until the warninng is triggered

The patch itself is good though; just the Changelog has me
confused.

Sorry for not explaining clearly and confusing you.

Thanks,
