Hi Yong,
Now 2.6.38-rc3 is out, and I think one of the 2 patches you wrote to
fix "autogroup" sched problem on UP machines is missing there.
More precisely, your first patch for kernel/sched.c (titled: sched:
tg->se->load should be initialised to tg->shares) is missing, while
the second one for kernel/sched_fair.c (titled: sched: Fix poor
interactivity on UP systems due to group scheduler nice tune bug) is
in -rc3.
So what happened to the first patch? Was it superseded and made
obsolete by the second patch?

Actually the merged one hide the initialising problem.
Because when we enqueue a process to an empty group, update_cfs_shares()
will be called, thus tg->se->load is updated.
enqueue_task_fair()
update_cfs_shares()
reweight_entity()
update_load_set()

See my above answer.
